Abstract Procedures to perform structural design of pavements are detailed in various design guidelines. Even though the recommendations may be different across the different guidelines, some of the underlying principles are similar. The present paper briefly reviews various pavement design guidelines on structural design of asphalt pavements with reference to the design principles employed. The focus is primarily kept on the mechanistic–empirical pavement design approach. The discussion covers few specific aspects of asphalt pavement design, and does not intend to present an exhaustive treatise on the subject.
