The present study focusses on the performance of flexible pavement at a different temperature. The analysis is carried out using 2D axisymmetric finite element model for a combination of varying thicknesses of a bituminous layer with base and sub-base. The study is very much useful to know the behaviour of flexible pavement under varying climatic conditions along with loading and material properties. The critical parameters are examined to know the cause of failure of the existing pavement structure. The study evaluates different pavement distresses in terms of rutting and fatigue life
