Abstract

In this paper, we using geotextiles in secondary roads to stabilize weak subgrades. However, from an economical point of view, a complete life cycle cost analysis, which includes not only costs to agencies but also costs to users, is urgently needed to assess the benefits of using geotextile in secondary road flexible pavement.
