Pavers - Start - Overview

Easy to use, yet comprehensive

Material models

The user-friendly menu driven interface runs under Microsoft Windows.
functions are accessible from the toolbar:
typical runs take a fraction of a second on today's Pentium PC's
report quality hard copies can be made on the wide range of printers supported by Microsoft Windows
results can be easily exported to other application packages such as spreadsheets for further processing.
pavement and loading databases eliminate need to constantly re-key information.

multi-layered pavement system for flexible and rigid pavement
isotropic and anisotropic materials
determine asphalt properties based on volumetric composition and bitumen characteristics
determine cement concrete properties based on compressive or tensile strength
fatigue transfer relationships taken from literature are included in the program library
wide range of performance criteria includes all popular models for asphalt, cement concrete, base and subgrade
define your own criteria and add them to the database

Traffic

Windows operating system

no limit on the number of types or loading conditions
uses actual multi-wheel gear layout
wander statistics specified by standard deviation
multiple loads can be placed anywhere on a concrete slab
analysis explicitly uses specified spectrum
no erroneous short-cuts such as "equivalent" single wheels
does not require conversion to coverage’s
special loadings for aircraft are included in database

Pavement models

Minimum system requirements

multi-layer Burmister model for flexible pavements
multi-layer plate model for rigid pavements
forward and back-calculation (FWD-pavement modelling)
capable of varying interface friction condition
capable to back-calculate interface condition (from slip, to partial friction to full bond)
the performance of all pavement layers and subgrade can be assessed
