Resumé

The goal of this research is to investigate each agencies current design method to discover similarities and differences in the way each agency designs and builds roadways for both low and high volume roads. Each agency was given design specific inputs of common climate, traffic, and existing subgrade soil (from MnROAD) and was asked to develop a design based on current design practice/standards. This paper documented the differences in construction, materials, and expectations on performance to provide and will provide a bases for future agency discussion. The initial survey contained more information that could be covered in this paper. Future goals could include the additional information for other research topics, developing possible test sections, and again to provide a common point of discussion for future efforts. This work also builds off of the efforts started with the NVF34/Nord FOU concept at the 2007 Iceland workshop.
