Once the hr and S values have been determined, the

maximum allowable slab length L is obtained from
between very long slabs because of large volumetric
the intersection of the straight line and the scale or
changes caused by temperature changes.
b. Thickness design on stabilized base or
the stabilized layer using procedures set forth in
subgrade. Ta determine the thickness requirements

used with figure 13-2 to design the reinforced
foundation, it is first necessary to determine the
concrete pavement in the same manner discussed
thickness of plain concrete pavement required over
above for nonstabilized foundations.
