Abstract

Proper structural design of highway pavements requires an evaluation of the destructive effects of the anticipated vehicular loading. The concept of load equivalency provides a means for expressing these destructive effects in terms of a single measure, the equivalent axleloads (EAL's). The design EAL's represents the equivalent number of applications of a standard or base axleload anticipated during the design life.
