? Normally during rehabilitation action
? Grids/fabrics laid between old (distressed)

? To Provide Increased Resistance to:
Reflective Cracking
Fatigue Cracking (strengthen pavement)
Deformation (Rutting)

WHY MODEL?• To investigate effects of
changing pavement parameters on pavement response
• Given Effect X,
what is Strain-Y in Asphalt?
• How will asphalt perform at Strain-Y?

MICRO EFFECTS: CRACKED
• Some modelling is possible using FE
• Benefits of reinforcement are more obvious for cracked scenario
BUT Anisotropic effects still important
and likely to underestimate
benefits of reinforcement
• Layered Elastic modelling not feasible
![Page 45: PHILIP JOUBERT STEWART SCOTT. Based on SAT Seminar (Pretoria) Presentations by: Products: Cobus Venter – Geotrac Garth James – Kaytech Nicholas Reck](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081516/56649da65503460f94a91128/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
MODELLING POSSIBILITIES: SUMMARY
• Routine modelling is likely to underestimate benefits of reinforcement
• Routine modelling does not appear feasible at this stage
Key Problem:Impact on damage inhibiting and
crack retardation not evaluated at all
