The construction of road Indonesia constantly increase because of the demand for economic support and doing a transmigration. Tanjungpura ringroad in Karawang is the one of the road with rigid pavement which has high traffic and the number of heavy vehicles passing also high. Therefore, the pavement structure mus be evaluated in order to find out the appropriate maintenance and the overlays for the road. This research evaluates the thickness of the flexible over rigid layer using AASHTO 1993 and MEPDG 2008 method. MEPDG method is relatively new to be applied in Indonesia, so there are still a lot of study and evaluation to do on this method. These method used because the MEPDG was developed from AASHTO so the output will be more economis. The result from AASHTO 1993 method for segment 1 and 3 both side are 5,6 cm , for segment 2 side N is 13,5 cm and segment 2 side O is 4,7 cm, furthermore the result from MEPDG method is 10 cm. The AASHTO 1993 method have varied result based on the segmentation and deflection values from FWD, meanwhile MEPDG show the damage model with control from fatigue cracking. MEPDG method have design criteria for structural condition there are permanent deformation, loas related cracking, reflection crackcing and smoothness then which is result from stresses and strains respond in every pavement layer, material characteristics and local calibration. The application of the MEPDG method in Indonesia can be done by another research about the calibration factor, the validation of WIM data and the climate zone area in Indonesia.
