Proper maintenance will slow the rate of pavement <br /> - deterioration,and will improve pavement performance and life. Preventive maintenance consists of <br /> both localized maintenance (crack and joint sealing and patching) and global maintenance (surface <br /> sealing). Added maintenance measures and reduced pavement life should be expected if any <br /> existing fill is left in-place beneath pavement sections. <br /> Lateral Earth Pressures <br /> Below grade and retaining walls will be subject to lateral earth pressures. Subgrade walls are typically <br /> designed for"active" or "at-rest" earth pressure conditions. Active earth pressure is commonly used for <br /> design of free-standing cantilever retaining walls and assumes lateral movement at the top of the wall of <br /> around 0.002H to 0.004H, where H is the height of the wall. The at-rest condition assumes no wall <br /> movement. <br /> The following recommended earth pressures (Table 6) should be applied as a triangular distribution <br /> starting at the top of the wall(for active and at-rest)and bottom of wall(for passive) and assume: <br /> 'I . Backfill behind walls is level and no surcharge loads will be applied; <br /> ■ Drainage is provided behind the wall to prevent the development of hydrostatic pressures. <br /> 11 <br />
