Reliability Analysis of Flexible Pavements Using Moments Method and Bending Strain Criterion
Abstract
The paper reviews the state-of-the-art reliability analysis of road pavements. It is noted that the literature and regulatory documents utilize the term reliability index. But reliability means calculations provided by a certain algorithm of the mathematical theory of reliability. Developments of the theory of reliability are not still used for the reliability analysis of automobile roads at an appropriate level. The paper proposes to use the moments method for the reliability analysis of flexible pavements and that ones with specified reliability. The equation for specified reliability is suggested for flexible pavement. Calculation results depict a considerable increase in the layer thickness. This increase can be accepted or denied depending on the costs comparison. It is expedient to use the proposed algorithm instead of the existing standard algorithm. The subject of the paper and obtained results are of direct scientific and practical relevance.
