Flexible pavements containing a thin asphalt-treated permeable base (ATPB) layer have been used in California for more than 15 years. The original philosophy upon which use of ATPB is based, the implementation of that philosophy, and observations regarding its effectiveness are examined. Laboratory tests for resilient modulus of ATPB are presented for the as-compacted state, after 3 and 10 days of soaking, and after repetitive loading in the as-compacted and saturated states. The results indicate a loss of stiffness after soaking, and failure caused by stripping and loss of cohesion between the aggregates when subjected to repetitive loading while saturated. The lab test results were used in simulations of fatigue life for pavements with and without ATPB. The results indicate that predicted pavement fatigue lives are improved when ATPB is included in the pavement structure as compared with when aggregate base alone is used, but the improvement diminishes if water damage occurs in the ATPB. Recommendations are made regarding future use of ATPB in flexible pavements.
