Abstract:Developed as part of pooled fund study TPF-5(013), the Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) Performance Forecast produces freeze/thaw performance predictions for both rigid and flexible pavements. These predictions are based on regression models using data available from approximately 800 in-service test sections in the LTPP database. These sections consist of a variety of climates with various subgrade types and a range of loading conditions. Using the LTPP Performance Forecast, researchers can compute roughness, structural cracking, environmental cracking, rutting and faulting predictions as a function of pavement age. The forecasts are based on user-defined inputs for traffic, structure, environment, and subgrade conditions.
