In order to conduct a further investigation of the causes of damages in large longitudinal slope of asphalt road pavement under actual heavy load, a three-dimensional finite element model was established by ANSYS finite element software. Through applying impulsive load in this model, the variation of the strains of large longitudinal slope of asphalt road pavement under different conditions was obtained and the influence of gradient on the dynamic response of large longitudinal slope of asphalt road pavement was analyzed. The results show that the strains of large longitudinal slope of asphalt road pavement increased with the increase of load times. Flexure tensile strain and shear strain were similitude with the change tendency of the increase of overloading rate but the data increased significantly. The transversal shear strain increased with the increase of gradient.
