 Human have assumed a key part in the advance and management of human
development from old circumstances to the present.

The influence of highway transportation on the economic , social and political

fabrics of nations is far reaching and as a consequence.

Highway studied for decades as cultural , political and economic phenomena.

Highway are consider are backbone of country because it access for
INTRODUCTION acquisition for natural resources, industrial production, retail marketing and
population mobility.
Highway that carry higher volume of traffic with heavy axle load required
surface with asphalt concrete and Portland cement concrete to withstand all
weather conditions and prevent deformation of highway surface.

There are basically four layers in road cross section 1- Wearing course 2-
Base Course 3-Subbase course 4-subgrade The main purpose of these
layers to distribute the traffic load on great area on natural subsurface soil.
 Literature Review
Roads are subjected to many kinds of distresses cased by traffic loading and
moisture. In modelling the long-term behaviour of pavements, it is essential
to take into account the gradual accumulation of permanent strain with
number of load applications and the important role played by stress
condition. Perhaps the main objective of research into long- term behaviour Effect of Moisture Content on Unbound pavement:

should be to establish a constitutive relationship which allows an accurate
prediction of the amount of permanent strain at any number of cycles at any
stress level. This section aims to present a brief state of the art on modelling
the permanent deformation behaviour based on the literature available to
date.

 In order to study the effects of varying moisture and stresses on unbound pavement materials we have to do all related
tests in laboratory.

We performed all the related tests on the National Highway Authority (NHA) gradation class “A” and on class “B”. We
used the aggregates from the nearby source the source is called Margallah.

Margallah is that it is the common quarry which is used for fulfilling the most of the demand.

We took all the sizes of the material from the nearby source which are used in above mentioned gradation classes.The
list of different tests that we performed are given below as our analysis is for the base course layer of the road so we
