Road & Pavement Design
EV2 pavement structures and unpaved road design.
Build one or more pavement design cases, then compare them side by side.
Rename it and set the global inputs here; layers and subgrade CBR are edited in the tables on the right.
| Material name | Default CBR % |
|---|
One editable table per scenario — surface at the top, subgrade (with its CBR) at the base. Inputs are on the left; computed EV2 updates on the right. Every scenario marked Compare gets its own table plus a side-by-side summary.
Drag the handle to reorder layers. Reinforced types reveal cell height / overfill / grid controls below the row. Click a scenario title to make it active.
Thickness profile with EV2 labels.
Step profile from subgrade to pavement surface.
Standalone MIF lookup — no full pavement design needed. Enter the infill material CBR and the support it sits on; the chart shows the 40 / 80 / 120 MPa support curves, the interpolated curve for your support, and the resulting MIF.
MIF is interpolated between the 40, 80 and 120 MPa support curves and floored at 1.0. Support is clamped into the 40–120 MPa fit domain: below 40 MPa the MIF is taken from the 40 MPa curve, above 120 MPa from the 120 MPa curve. The SIF vs support view compares the SIF cap (support modulus × SIF factor, ramping between the calibrated factors across support CBR 3–4.6) with MIF × Emax — the lower of the two governs the layer modulus.
Suggest the thinnest Neoloy Tough-Cells structure — either from a few quick questions, or by matching an existing unreinforced pavement.
Choose the granular material and thickness for each layer. The tool applies the standard CBR automatically.
The optimizer returns the thinnest structure plus one or two alternatives that satisfy the target EV2.
Load a structure from the calculator or optimizer as an independent snapshot, then edit it freely. Changes here never affect the calculator.

Formulas, default values, and literature sources used by the carbon calculator.
Density converts volume in m3 to mass in tons for material and transport emissions.
Default truck body 16 m3, emission factor 0.18 kg CO₂/t-km (range 0.16-0.20). The return factor scales empty return travel.
Aggregate defaults to 10 kg CO₂/t (range 5-20). Asphalt defaults to 35 kg CO₂/t (range 30-40).
Excavation defaults to 0.5 kg CO₂/m3. Layer equipment defaults to 1 kg CO₂/m2 for watering, grading, and compaction.
Lime defaults to 3% dosage and 800 kg CO₂/t. Cement defaults to 2.5% and 900 kg CO₂/t.
The dashboard compares total emissions and intensities per m2, per km, and per lane-km.

Diesel is ~2.68 kg CO₂/L. Medium excavator fuel use supports ~0.3-0.8 kg CO₂/m3, with 0.5 used as default.
AIP: Estimating GHG emissions from construction equipmentHeavy truck transport default 0.18 kg CO₂/t-km (range 0.16-0.20), applied to loaded haul and optional empty return.
EDF: Green freight math for truck movesAggregate production is lower carbon than cement or asphalt. Default 10 kg CO₂/t within the 5-20 range.
NSSGA: Greenhouse gas emissions reportAsphalt production defaults to 35 kg CO₂/t (range 30-40). Density 2.35 t/m3.
Ecochain: Asphalt carbon footprintLime ~2-8% dosage; production is carbon intensive due to calcination. Cement ~900 kg CO₂/t and 2-3% dosage.
OSTI: Lime production and calcination emissionsAdd a row per paved area (carriageway, shoulders, hardstand). The footprint is the sum; layer volumes come from each design's thicknesses.

Optional extras the structural design doesn't carry — surfacing, kerbs, drainage, markings. Apply to one design or both.

Recurring maintenance events, priced per m² per occurrence (in the tab currency) with separate values per design. Life-cycle cost = initial (CAPEX) + NPV of the maintenance stream over the analysis period. Real terms — no inflation, no residual value.

An interval of 0 (or blank) on a side means the event does not apply to that design. Events recur at t = interval, 2×interval, … strictly before the end of the analysis period. Fuel and CO₂ impacts are quantified separately in the Carbon (CO₂) tab and are not monetised here.

Not monetised here: the reinforced design removes excavation & haul-away, cuts imported granular, and shortens the build — surface these as supporting benefits. Life-cycle figures are in real terms at the stated discount rate, with no inflation/indexing and no residual value.
