Even though a lot of laboratory and field tests for asphalt pavements using geosynthetics have been conducted recently, any rational and systematic analysis for the economic efficiency of the asphalt pavement systems reinforced by using geosynthetics has not been proposed yet. In this study, the economic analysis considering the traffic characteristics for the glass fiber sheet reinforced asphalt pavement was performed using the Life Cycle Cost Analysis(LCCA) which is commonly used for the economic analysis technique. The economic efficiency for the glass fiber sheet reinforcement and the traffic characteristics was examined by applying the test results from the literature review to the economic analysis model.
