Including reliability in the AASHTO-93 flexible pavement design method integrating pavement deterioration models

Abstract: The reliability used in the pavement design is assigned according to recommendations of design guides or according to the designer’s criteria; that is to say, there is no rational tool for their estimation. In addition, the chosen value is deterministic and does not consider the...
