MECHANISTIC-EMPIRICAL PAVEMENT DESIGN GUIDEGUIDE
The Guide provides an “analysis tool” for The Guide provides an analysis tool for evaluating pavement structures using mechanistic-empirical principles, project mechanistic empirical principles, project specific traffic, climate, and materials data.
The software estimates damage accumulation ifi d t i lif over a specified pavement service life.

MECHANISTIC PAVEMENT DESIGN IS BASICALLY AN APPROACH WHERE A MODEL IS USED TO AN APPROACH WHERE A MODEL IS USED TO CALCULATE THE REACTION OF A PAVEMENT STRUCTURE WHEN SUBJECTED TO TRAFFIC STRUCTURE WHEN SUBJECTED TO TRAFFIC LOADING.

TRAINING FOR THE GUIDETRAINING FOR THE GUIDE
Training sponsored by the FCPA and FDOT was Training sponsored by the FCPA and FDOT was conducted in Orlando, Tallahassee, Ft. Lauderdale and Jacksonville. Over 100 Lauderdale and Jacksonville. Over 100 attended the day and half course presented by Dr. Darter.Dr. Darter.

COEFFICIENT OF THERMAL EXPANSIONCOEFFICIENT OF THERMAL EXPANSION
Several studies in the past few years have Several studies in the past few years have identified CTE as one of the most significant inputs or classified as extremely sensitive input inputs or classified as extremely sensitive input in the MEPDG for designing rigid pavements.“If the models are not recalibrated the If the models are not recalibrated, the pavement thickness may be underestimated.” I t th t f id l ki g Impact on the amount of midpanel cracking and spalling.

SO WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEANSO WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN
Concrete pavements for routes with a high Concrete pavements for routes with a high volume of heavy trucks will be thinner. (Pending the outcome of the recalibration)the outcome of the recalibration)A significant amount of research will still needs to be conductedto be conductedGood engineering judgment still remains a
j f t i t d igmajor factor in pavement design.

PAVEMENT TYPE SELECTIONPAVEMENT TYPE SELECTION
The FDOT Pavement Type Selection Manual is The FDOT Pavement Type Selection Manual is currently under review by Mr. Harold Von Quintus and Dr. Mike Darter. Quintus and Dr. Mike Darter. Comments were also solicited from both the asphalt and concrete industries and the asphalt and concrete industries and the Districts.

ALTERNATE PAVEMENT BIDDINGALTERNATE PAVEMENT BIDDING
D i i l d b th t d h lt Designs include both a concrete and asphalt pavementFor the purpose of determining the low bid an adjustment factor is added to the asphalt.The factor is the based on the estimated difference in the rehabilitation costs of the two pavements from the PTS analysis.

FACTS AND FIGURESFACTS AND FIGURES
Did you know?Did you know?Concrete pavements in Florida currently make up 2% of the State Highway Systemmake up 2% of the State Highway System, but carry 5% of the overall traffic. On the Interstate system they make up 8% of theInterstate system, they make up 8% of the system, but carry nearly 13% of the traffic.
