Abstract

Flexible pavements constitute the dominant form of road construction across India's rapidly expandinghighway and rural road network, yet conventional design practice under IRC:37-2018 frequently results in thick granular base and sub-base layers, particularly over weak subgrade soils, leading to high materialconsumption, elevated construction cost, and considerable environmental burden
