ABSTRACT
The paper describes the present state of the art regarding the design, and construction of Haul
Roads for off-highway mining equipment and outlines the philosoohy that BHP Engineering {BHPE)
uses when optimising a design using local or in situ materials versus costs.
The paper also looks at design criteria commonly adopted for pavements and road layouts for
large mining equipment.
Acknowledgement: I would like to thank the General Manager of BHP Engineering, Mr. Paul Jeans,
for the opportunity to prepare and publish this paper.

By using the above CBR curve modified for
large vehicles; (for example) a Wabco Generally the site factor is less than 1 if
payhauler and a subgrade of CBR equivalent cost effective designs are to be produced.

pavement design would result.
PAVEMENT MATERIALS
However, this theoretical design is then
modified by what we have developed and 17. It is essential that the best

gr avels etc., and not crushed stone).
1) Rainfall conditions (very dry, very wet)
2) Drainage and topography This gravel should be blended to achieve
3) Vehicle us eage those criteria set out in the NAASRA {1974)

5) Cost . How much money can be spent? for Pavement Construction.
These factors have of course been derived by This book should be the road engineers'
