👉Types of Flexible Road Pavement
🚧These refer to the overall pavement structure or layers used in road construction (subgrade, base, binder, and surface layers).
💫1. Conventional Flexible Pavement:
⏺A pavement made of several layers (subgrade, sub-base, base, and asphalt surface) that distributes traffic load gradually to the soil.
💫2. Full-Depth Asphalt Pavement:
⏺A pavement where all structural layers above the subgrade are made entirely of asphalt.
💫3. Contained Rock Asphalt Mat (CRAM):
⏺A type of pavement where asphalt mix is placed within crushed rock to improve strength and load distribution.
💫4. Bituminous Surface Treatment:
⏺A thin layer of bitumen and aggregates applied on the surface, mainly used for low-traffic roads or maintenance.
