          A road with hierarchy of 05 has a surface width of 7.0 m and shoulder width of 2.00m is to be
          built as a main road in a residential area. It has a initial average daily traffic of 6800cv/day in
          both directions. The rate of traffic growth is 7%. Percentage of commercial vehicle is 25%.
          Design a flexible pavement for the road which needs a design life of 10 years. The CBR for
          sub-grade of the road is 5%. ( Employ the JKR Malaysia Design Method ).


          Note:

          Requirement of pavement layers:
          Wearing Course              = Asphalt Concrete.

          Road-Base Course            = Broken Aggregate.
          Sub-Base Course             = Broken Aggregate.

          Flat Terrain
