A majority of roads in the India are low volume roads (LVRs). The ASTM has developed simplified methods for LVR pavement thickness selection. These guides allow users to obtain recommended asphalt surfacing and base course layer thickness based on the subgrade support and the average daily traffic (ADT) of the road. The main objective of this study is to relate the surface condition of LVRs to their ADT, layer thicknesses, foundation material properties, and maintenance. A secondary objective was to evaluate if the Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) is an acceptable tool in determining the subgrade support by using it to measure the penetration resistances of the foundation layers. A total of 18 different asphalt surfaced LVRs across SD were tested. The construction and maintenance histories of the road was obtained. The performance of the roads was evaluated based on the surface condition of the pavement. Field tests were performed to obtain the layer thicknesses, DCP Penetration Index, and samples were obtained for laboratory testing.
