Naue PavedRoad – AASHTO calculator: Now available in the Naue Portal

An engineer sits in front of a model for road planning and uses the Naue PavedRoad - AASHTO software for pavement design on a laptop.

Optimised pavement design for paved roads with geosynthetics integration

Naue continues to expand its range of digital solutions with the introduction of the Naue PavedRoad – AASHTO calculator. This advanced design tool supports engineers and planners working on the construction of flexible pavements, providing precise, efficient, and durable road design solutions. Its design methodology, based on the globally recognised AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures 1993, makes it particularly relevant for projects in USA & Canada, where AASHTO guidelines are widely applied.

Streamlining pavement design with AASHTO guidelines

The Naue PavedRoad – AASHTO calculator enables engineers to develop optimised designs that align with the strict requirements of AASHTO. By integrating performance data from Secugrid® geogrids and Combigrid® geocomposites, the tool provides accurate predictions of two key improvements:

  • Reduced unbound layer thickness

  • Extended service life of paved roads

Why choose the Naue PavedRoad – AASHTO calculator?

This comprehensive software application combines the latest research on geosynthetics with the performance benefits of Naue’s products. Engineers in North America and beyond can trust the results to optimise material usage, improve project sustainability, and ensure compliance with AASHTO guidelines:

  • Optimised designs: Develop reliable designs in compliance with AASHTO guidelines, tailored to your specific project requirements.

  • Cost savings: Reduce material costs by minimising unbound layer thickness while maintaining pavement durability.

  • Improved road performance: Enhance load distribution and increase road longevity with Secugrid® and Combigrid® integration.

A practical solution for road construction professionals

The calculator provides a solid foundation for safer and more economical asphalt road solutions – essential for projects in the USA and Canada, where AASHTO guidelines form the backbone of pavement design.
