As some of you have mentioned, preloading will reduce but not eliminate post-construction settlement. I always use this phrase when dealing with developments over peat and soft soils. The performance of the pavement will be highly dependent on the diffential settlement. Knowing the loading...

Thanks for the responses; however, I am looking for advice on the design approach to the problem. For example, is the most appropriate design method a linear elastic layer model such as KENLAYER. How about the British Port's method? I had heard that the ASCE had a committee that was going to...

I am looking for advice on design methods for heavy duty pavement over weak, compressible subgrade conditions. Due to the likelihood of ongoing differential settlement at the site, I am considering a flexible pavement design (asphalt over granular base). The subgrade consists of sand fill...
