The full program name and version number may be accessed by clicking Help About, as shown above. The
Version number is given as 6.06.15 above. From time-to-time minor upgrades will be required for nontechnical reasons, referred to as "Administrative Upgrades". These upgrades are identified by an increment in
the third set of digits (ie. .15 as shown above).

During later program use, the language may be changed by opening the Company Details form, by selecting
Output User details. The User may then change the language as required.
IMPORTANT NOTE: for English only use, TensarPave Version 6.06 may be run using the single executable
file "TensarPave.exe". For foreign language use, additional files are required (such as TensarPave.e10,
TensarPave.exh, etc). These are distributed together with the executable file in any country where foreign
languages are likely to be used. If you wish to use the foreign language version of TensarPave Version 6.06,
and you do not have these additional files, then please contact Tensar International to obtain them. The full
set of files required, including foreign language files, is shown below:

In the case that TensarPave Version 6.06 is used with a Sentinel software protection key (dongle) the
"Tensar.key" file is also required, as shown above.
If design parameters result in a pavement less than 150mm being required, then this warning is given:

Modulus methods
In the case that either a very low or very high subgrade modulus is used, then the warning below appears. The
reference used for this design method only gives stabilised layer thickness for the range of subgrade modulus =
5 MPa to 45 MPa.
If the User opts to customise the layout of geogrid, then this warning appears. In general the default layout is
Tensar International's recommendation for the most suitable layout of geogrid for the design conditions. If the
User makes changes, then the full stabilisation benefit may no longer be available. In any doubt, contact
Tensar International for advice.
AASHTO method
In the case that a subgrade CBR less than 3% is used, then the following warning is seen. This is warning the
User that, in this situation, it is advisable to check that the lower part of the pavement is adequate to support
the construction traffic during placement of the lower layers of the pavement. This temporary case may be
checked using the Ground Stabilisation method (available to Users in all regions).
In the case that Layer coefficients ("a" values) are used which are either higher or lower than normal practice,
then the following warning is given. The User may proceed with the design, but the value is given an orange
background on screen to remind them that the value is either high or lower than normal.

In the case that Layer coefficients ("a" values) are used which are either higher or lower than the permitted
extreme values referred to above, then the following warning is given. In this case the background of the
entered value becomes red, and the design may not proceed until an acceptable value has been entered.

open the program for 6 months, after which a new code will be requested. However, the program will continue
to run for more than a week after a new code is requested.
