Composite materials are design to be able to achieve properties that would be unreachable if materials were used separately. A clear example of this, in civil engineering, is reinforced concrete. It is also important in this sense and into this field of work the material it is analyzed in this article, reinforced pavement of roads. The aim of this paper is to estimate the elastic properties of these materials. To reach that goal homogenization theory and related techniques would be used. The results obtained within this work shows significant structural benefits when including in the pavement these types of materials.

Abstract The effective elastic properties of the cord-rubber composite are deduced from the principle of virtual work. Such a composite must be compliant in the noncord directions and therefore undergo large deformations. The Rivlin-Mooney equation is used to derive the effective Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus of the composite and as a basis for their measurement in uniaxial tension.
