Webinar: Pavement design with Naue PavedRoad – AASHTO

Smart paved road design enabling cost reduction and superior durability

The design and construction of paved roads face increasing demands for durability and cost-efficiency. The new Naue PavedRoad – AASHTO calculator is a powerful digital tool that streamlines the design process for flexible pavements, based on the globally recognised AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, 1993. By incorporating full-scale trafficking test data with Naue geogrids, the calculator predicts significant performance improvements, such as reduced unbound layer thickness and an extended service life of asphalt pavements.
