Abstract:

The new Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) developed under the National Cooperative Highway

Research Program (NCHRP) Project 1-37A represents a major change as compared to the 1993 AASHTO Pavement

Design Guide. MEPDG provides a rational pavement design framework based on the mechanistic-empirical principles

to characterize the impacts of traffi c, climate, and material properties on the pavement performance. Before replacing

the 1993 Pavement Design Guide (and its accompanying DARWin 3.1 design software) currently used by Louisiana

Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD), the nationally calibrated MEPDG design models need to be

further validated and calibrated against the local conditions in Louisiana.
