The document summarizes a study on rehabilitating an 8 km section of the Altaji-Baghdad highway in Iraq. Laboratory and field testing was conducted to determine the existing pavement conditions and traffic volumes. Various types of failures like rutting, cracking, and potholes were found. An equivalent single axle load was calculated based on traffic data and used to determine the required overlay thickness according to the Asphalt Institute Manual. The recommended rehabilitation plan involves scraping and cleaning rutted areas, constructing 50mm and 55mm asphalt layers, and a 10-15cm subbase layer to increase the highway's service life and capacity.
