Abstract

The invention concerns a novel road structure whose bearing part on top of the ground comprises three successive layers of bituminous material bonded with one another, namely: a base layer which rests on the ground with optional insertion of a forming layer of thickness H.sub.i such that: 4 cm.ltoreq.H.sub.i .ltoreq.10 cm, and of elastic modulus: E.sub.i ; a median layer of thickness H.sub.m such that: 4 cm.ltoreq.H.sub.m .ltoreq.20 cm, and of elastic modulus E.sub.m such that: 2000 MPa<E.sub.m <8000 MPa; and a top layer of thickness H.sub.s such that: 4 cm.ltoreq.H.sub.s .ltoreq.10 cm, and of elastic modulus E.sub.s, such that elastic moduli of said layers comply with inequality relationships (a) and (b).
