16、entational conventionsThe provisions in this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Its recommendations are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliary verb is “should”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented in smaller italic type, and does no
17、t constitute a normative element.The word “should” is used to express recommendations of this standard. The word “may” is used in the text to express permissibility, e.g. as an alternative to the primary recommendation of the clause. The word “can” is used to express possibility, e.g. a consequence
18、of an action or an event.Notes and commentaries are provided throughout the text of this standard. Notes give references and additional information that are important but do not form part of the recommendations. Commentaries give background information.Contractual and legal considerationsThis public
19、ation does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legal obligations.

35、 option provided for a heavy-duty pavement is a bound surface course laid upon a bound roadbase.NOTE 2 Examples of the use of the design method given in this standard are given in Annex A.The designer should select the preferred surface course option and then carry out a structural design for the tr
36、affic level and subgrade bearing strength of the site (see Clause 6 and Clause 7). If an acceptable design with the selected surface course is not possible or economic, an alternative surface course option should be selected and the design process repeated.NOTE 3 The recommended minimum physical pro
37、perties of surface course material are listed in Table C.1 and Table C.2.NOTE 4 the structural performance is affected by fatigue and one-off overload, or by repeated loading which can cause: failure in the bedding material; failure in the bond between the paving unit and the bedding material; failu
38、re in the bond between the bedding material and the roadbase; failure in the jointing material itself or a failure of the bond between the jointing material and the unit; failure of the paving unit.NOTE 5 Pavements should not be open to full vehicular traffic loading prior to the laying course and t
39、he jointing material achieving 60% full design strength.5.2 Site categoriesFor the purposes of design, pavements should be categorized according to the commercial vehicular traffic assessment shown in Table 1.In determining the site category, the use of the surface of the pavement by any constructio
40、n traffic should be assessed and allowed for. BSI 2006 5BS 7533-12:2006NOTE This table is based on current experience, but does not preclude higher usage by vehicles. The traffic levels (see Table 1) for the use of stone slabs and concrete flags are based upon the materials and construction conformi
41、ng to BS 7533-4. 5.3 Special casesHigh horizontal tensile stresses can be introduced into the pavement where dynamic and/or impact loading occurs, e.g.: on traffic calming ramps; or where a row of paving units is laid with its surface not flush with the surrounding pavement; or for sites subjected t
42、o braking or turning; or where there are steep hills;The structural design in terms of vertical loading should remain unchanged but the traffic figures should be multiplied by two before carrying out the design to allow for the higher horizontal tensile stresses.5.4 Skid resistance and abrasion resi
43、stanceIt is necessary to ensure the slip/skid resistance of the surface of paving units provide adequate safety against skidding and slipping when new or in service.NOTE 1 Guidance on the determination of the slip/skid resistance value is given in BS 7932.NOTE 2 Guidance on minimum slip/skid resista
44、nce is given in Annex C.The abrasion resistance of the surface of natural stone slabs and concrete paving flags should be determined in accordance with BS EN 1341:2001, Annex C and BS EN 1339:2003, Annex G to ensure durability and the performance of the surface.Table 1 Site categories for typical ve
