Abstract:This five-year project was initiated to collect materials and pavement performance data on a minimum of 100 ; highway test sections around the State of Texas, incorporating flexible pavements and overlays. Besides being used to ; calibrate and validate mechanistic-empirical (M-E) design models, the data collected will also serve as an ongoing ; reference data source and/or diagnostic tool for TxDOT engineers and other transportation professionals. Towards this ; goal, this interim report provides a documentation of the comprehensive data analysis plans that were developed to ; analyze the collected data. The data collection plans are documented elsewhere as Report 0-6658-P1. ; As documented here, the data analysis plans were designed to cover various key aspects, including the ; following: (1) the tools and test methods used to measure/collect the data, (2) the type and format of the data ; measured/collected, (3) the raw data reduction processes for each data type, (4) the software used to process and ; analyze the measured/collected data, (5) the analytical methods and models used to analyze the measured/collected ; data, (6) the dimensional and/or quantitative units of the measured/computed parameters, and (7) the data reporting ; format including how the data will be accessed and displayed from the MS Access Data Storage System (i.e., tables, ; graphs, bar charts, etc.). Specifically, the data to be analyzed included the following: (1) laboratory and field test data ; including asphalt-binders, hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixes, base, and subgrade soil materials; (2) traffic data; and ; (3) environmental and climatic data.
