• Abstract:
  The proposed study uses the new MEPDG together with data available from LADOTD’s Pavement Management System (PMS) and other data sources from LADOTD’s main frame to evaluate typical flexible pavement structures currently used and to make changes if warranted, so the Department can get immediate benefits from this new design guide. ; The objectives of this study are to evaluate the performances of typical flexible pavement types, materials, and structures currently used in Louisiana using MEPDG and PMS data and to identify areas for future local calibration of the new MEPDG.
