The paper draws attention to the major differences in design methodology of flexible and rigid pavement designs. For concrete pavements, the design is based on the Equivalent Strength (CBR) of 1000 mm of subgrade. This includes the Selected Material Zone (SMZ) and is calculated using the widely accepted Japanese Public...
