Abstract
A pavement system consisting of an aggregate base course
stabilized with fly ash and resting on a subgrade soil is
analyzed using the nonlinear finite element method. Both
the beam (one-dimensional) and the slab (two-dimensional)
idealization are employed and for various base thicknesses
and wheel loads the deflections are computed. Results are
presented in a graphical form that can be used for selecting
a suitable base and pavement thickness for a given subgrade
soil as measured by the modulus of subgrade reaction.
