The asymmetric deformation characteristics of embankments over sloped weak ground play an important role in the embankment stability and settlement process. Additional pavement responses will occur as a result of differential deformation of embankment which may cause pavement premature distress and/or structural failure in the form of transverse slippage cracking and longitudinal cracking. Using computer simulation method, this paper reports a preliminary research on highway embankments over sloped ground and their influence on structural responses of asphalt pavement. Research results show that the concentration of deformation at the downhill toe of embankment is the key factor in the structural consideration of embankment stability, deformation behavior and pavement responses.
