Abstract :
The design conception of overseas perpetual pavement is introduced. Based on the successful experience on the improvement of asphalt pavement structure abroad, which can change the present situation of using single semi-rigid base asphalt pavements in our country, the design method of perpetual asphalt pavement is studied. The different pavement structures can be applied reasonablely. The earlier impairments of asphalt pavements can be prevented and its service life can be prolonged.
