A THEORY FOR TRANSFORMING AASHO ROAD TEST PAVEMENT PERFORMANCE EQUATIONS TO EQUATIONS INVOLVING MIXED TRAFFIC
THE GENERAL EQUATIONS TO BE DEVELOPED AT THE AASHO ROAD TEST RELATING PAVEMENT PERFORMANCE, PAVEMENT DESIGN AND AXLE LOAD WILL DESCRIBE THE BEHAVIOR OF THESE PAVEMENTS WHEN SUBJECTED TO REPEATED APPLICATIONS OF AN AXLE LOAD OF A GIVEN TYPE AND WEIGHT. THE THEORY PROPOSED HEREIN CAN BE USED TO DERIVE FROM EACH SUCH EQUATION A CORRESPONDING EQUATION WHICH, BY HYPOTHESIS, WILL PREDICT THE BEHAVIOR OF THESE PAVEMENTS IF SUBJECTED TO MIXED TRAFFIC OF ANY GIVEN COMPOSITION. THE THEORY MAY BE OF USE IN THE APPLICATION OF ROAD TEST RESULTS TO THE DESIGN OF HIGHWAY PAVEMENTS TO CARRY A KNOWN DISTRIBUTION OF AXLE LOADS. /AUTHOR/
