    This document summarizes the parameters and design of a new concrete pavement project in Caldas, outside the US. It provides details on the project description, design period of 40 years, traffic load of 2,500,000 ESALs, and pavement structure including a concrete layer of 8.5 inches over an aggregate base layer of 11.8 inches. The design meets a reliability of 95% for the 40-year period.
