Pavement Engineering Principles and Practice

Pavement Engineering Principles and Practice 

Mallick, Rajib B.

Preference :

Pavements are an essential part of our life. We use them as roads, runways, parking lots, and

driveways. Pavements are engineered structures and are important for our everyday life, commerce

and trade, and defense. Surface transportation is the most widely used mode of transportation in the

world, and a country’s development is often measured in terms of its total paved road mileage.

The construction of roads is and will continue to be a major industry in developing countries, and as

the infrastructure matures, it will be a major industry in developed countries as well.

Like any other engineered structure, pavements are expected to be adequately strong and durable

for their design life. They are expected to function properly by providing a smooth traveling surface

for the traffic under various conditions of the environment. In order to ensure this, pavements must

be designed, constructed, maintained, and managed properly.
