Improved Drainage and Frost Action Criteria for New Jersey Pavement Design. Volume 3. Road Subsurface Drainage Design, Construction and Maintenance Guide for Pavements

摘要

The Volume III report of a three-volume series on subsurface road drainage is offered as a guide for solving the problem of road subsurface drainage. The intent is to formulate improved design methods and construction and maintenance procedures for road internal drainage systems as a means for controlling water within pavements. The guide is an effort to provide internal road drainage systems capable to control water internal movements, at least to limit its damaging effect and to extend road life expectancy. The solutions offered are expected to be structurally sound and cause no adverse frost effects.
