FlexPave

FlexPave is a powerful tool for planning new roads or highways. It goes way beyond just picking a 2D route. There are tons of factors and details to think about when you look at the substrate structure of any road or highway. This can get pretty complex, fast! Luckily, FlexPave was made just for this purpose. It helps you follow the methods and procedures from the AASHTO Pavement Design reference manual. With it, you can create and tweak your pavement structure plans using customizable graphics and numbers.

Pavement Structure Visualization

The cool thing about FlexPave is how it uses graphics to show the actual pavement structure. This visual approach aligns with the standards laid out in the AASHTO documentation.

Setting Key Parameters

When you kick off a new project, you can define important indices like sub-grade CBR, growth rate, design life, or even AADT right from the start. And if you're feeling adventurous, there are advanced settings you can adjust too!

Customizing Your Layers

The app lets you dive into three depths for customization: surface layer, base course, and sub-base. You can set specific characteristics for each layer to make sure everything fits your needs.

User-Friendly Interface

You also get this handy graphical representation along with a slider that controls the scale. This feature is super useful when you're trying to change your perspective on things.

For Engineers and Learners Alike

No matter if you're an engineer working on a new highway plan or just someone curious about pavement structure design, FlexPave is here to help! It's designed for both advanced users and those who are just starting out in pavement planning.
