Abstract
Highway play a vital role in the overall economic development of the country and the pavements are an important part of the road. So that it is important that the road pavements should be well designed and constructed so that they can allow the heavy movement of traffic through them. A road pavement structure is made of multiple layers of processed and compacted materials, in different thicknesses and in both unbound and bound forms, which together form a structure that primarily supports vehicle loads as well as providing a smooth riding quality. But the major problem faced by many developing countries is the durability of pavement is less and requires more maintenance. The selection of highway construction materials is based on the type of roadway, identified and predictable traffic volume and the climatic conditions of the region. Nowadays transportation engineers have a more scientific approach; they use eco-friendly methods to construct roads.
