A laboratory LCF assessment program was conducted in which samples were fabricated using LCF materials from Ohio, Pennsylvania, Oregon, and Texas sources. The samples were analyzed for the effects of LCF ingredient variations on modulus of resilience, unconfined compressive strength, fracture toughness, tensile strength, and fatigue. Effects of deicing chemicals on modulus of resilience, unconfined compressive strength, fracture toughness, and tensile strength were analyzed. A field testing program was conducted in which core samples were obtained from Newark, Portland, and JFK airports. The samples were tested for modulus of resilience and unconfined compressive strength. A search was conducted of pertinent recent literature on pavement design and analysis, especially LCF pavements. Keywords: Airports, Runways, Airport pavements, Lime-cement-flyash. (jes).

Presents a complete coverage of all aspects of the theory and practice of pavement design including the latest concepts.
