The "Pavement Materials and Design" course provides a solid foundation in selecting pavement materials and designing pavements. It covers the components and functions of pavement layers, subgrade soil classification, and the California Bearing Ratio (CBR), including practical insights from virtual CBR tests. The course includes bituminous materials, their classification, properties, grading systems, and virtual tests on bitumen properties. Learners will gain essential knowledge in Marshall bituminous mix design, and study Portland Cement properties, admixtures, and the significance of DLC and PQC mix design. Additionally, the course covers flexible and rigid pavement design, offering hands-on experience with IITPAVE software and the mechanistic-empirical performance design approach in accordance with the latest IRC:37 and IRC:58 guidelines. Learners will also explore long-life flexible pavements, their design philosophy, and advantages over conventional options. By the end, learners will be proficient in designing flexible and rigid pavements according to Indian standards. Target learners include civil engineering graduate and post-graduate students, as well as professionals in transportation and infrastructure development, with prerequisites in Concrete Technology, Geotechnical Engineering, Building Materials & Construction, and Construction Equipment & Methods.

Foire Aux Questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
