Based on the linear elastic multi-layer theory, using the pavement finite-element program, the shear stress distribution regularities, influencing factors and evaluation methods were studied. Data were calculated for analyzing using a pavement structure with various combinations of layer thickness, modulus and Poisson ratio, the data include the structural, material information, and shear stress values in different positions. Using the calculated database, the shear stress distribution regularities in different conditions were studied. The determination and evaluation method of AC shear streng...
