Huang, Yang H. 1927-

Pavement analysis and design [Book] / Yang H. Huang. - 2nd ed - Upper Saddle River, NJ : Pearson/Prentice Hall, c2004 - xiii, 775 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. + 1 CD-ROM (4 3/4 in.)

NEW - KENPAVE Windows program—Based on the mechanistic-empirical method; written using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0; combines the flexible and rigid pavements into a single package together with the addition of new input programs and computer graphics. Demonstrates to students how theory can be put into practice, and gives them a better understanding of the pavement design process. Serves as a useful tool for the structural design of raft foundations—an important subject in geotechnical engineering. NEW - Revised material on the AASHTO overlay design method. Reflects the AASHTO design guide which was revised in 1993. NEW - Added developments and information throughout—i.e., a new method based on the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion; and new comparisons between KENLAYER and the latest Windows version of MICH-PAVE. Keeps the book and students current, and broadens the scope of knowledge contained in both. NEW - Three additional appendices—Superpave; Pavement Management System; and Preview of 2002 Design Guide. Provides students with the most current information available while new publications by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials are being approved and implemented.

Accompanying CD-ROM contains Windows software called KENPAVE, and several input and graphics programs
