Q: Given the data below: Daily Traffic Count Axle Load (Kips) (2-аxle) 2 (3-аxle) 22 (4-аxle) 40 (5-аxle) 50 |(6-axle) 50 SN is 5, P;= 4.2, P, = 3, design life is 15 years, growth rate is 2.5%, lane distribution factor = 0.45, AADT = 1600 Calculate the ESAT.
The predicted traffic mix of a proposed four-lane urban non-interstate freeway is as follows. Passenger cars = 78% Single-unit trucks: 2-axle, 5,000 lb/axle = 12% 2-axle, 9,000 lb/axle = 4% 3-axle or more, 23,000 lb/axle = 3% Tractor semitrailers and combinations: 3-axle, 20,000 lb/axle = 3% The projected AADT during the first year of operation is 3,900 (both directions). If the traffic growth rate is estimated at 3 percent and the CBR of the subgrade is 7.5, determine the depth of a full-asphalt pavement (in inches) using the AASHTO method and n = 20 years. The resilient modulus of the asphalt (EAC) is 320,000 lb/in². Assume m, for the subgrade is 1 and the percent of traffic on the design lane is 42 percent, pt = 2.5, and SN = 4. Use a reliability level of 90 percent, a standard deviation of 0.45, and a design serviceability loss of 2.0. Assume the design lane factor f is 0.42. (Use single-axle load equivalency factors for 2-axle vehicles and tandem-axle load equivalency factors for…

An existing rural 4-lane highway is to be replaced by a 6-lane divided expressway (3 lanes in each direction). Traffic volume data on the highway indicate that the AADT (both directions) during the first year of operation is 24,000 with the following vehicle mix and axle loads. Passenger cars = 50 percent 2-axle single-unit trucks (12,000 lb/axle) = 40 percent 3-axle single-unit trucks (16,000 lb/axle) = 10 percent The vehicle mix is expected to remain the same throughout the design life of 20 years, although traffic is expected to grow at a rate of 3.5 percent annually. Using the AASHTO design procedure, determine the minimum depth of concrete pavement required for the design period of 20 years.
