Horizontal Tensile Strain at the bottom of the bituminous layers
Calculation of Tensile strain
Nf = 2.21 x 10^ - 4 x {1/εt}^3.89 x [1/MR]^0.854 for 80 % reliability
Nf = 0.5161 x C x 10^ - 4 x {1/εt}^3.89 x [1/MR]^0.854 for 90 % reliability
Where C = 10^M, M=(4.84x (Vb /(Va+Vb)-0.69))
Va = 4.5 Vb = 11.5
1/εt = 2634.48394 #VALUE!
εt = 379.58E-06 Allowable Tensile strain

N = RF x [ (113000/E0.804+191) / εt ]12 RF = 1 if >1500 CVD and 2 if <1500 CVD
N = N/A
1/εt = N/A
εt = N/A in microstrain
εt = 000.00E+00 Allowable Tensile strain
Vertical Compresive Strain at the bottom of the Granular sub base
Calculation of Vertical strain
N = 4.1656*10^-8*(1/εv)^4.5337 for 80 % reliability
N = 1.41*10^-8*(1/εv)^4.5337 for 90 % reliability
1/εv = (30440000/(1.41*10^-8))^(1/4.5337)
1/εv = 2411.43846
