for an access highway to a major truck terminal. The
design daily truck traffic consists of the following: 80
single axles at 22,500 lb each, 570 tandem axles at
25,000 lb each, 50 tandem axles at 39,000 lb each,
and 80 triple axles at 48,000 lb each. The highway is
to be designed with rigid pavement having a modulus
of rupture of 600 lb/in² and a modulus of elasticity of
5 million lb/in². The reliability is to be 95%, the
overall standard deviation is 0.4, the drainage
coefficient is 0.9, APSI is 1.7 (with a TSI of 2.5), and
the load transfer coefficient is 3.2. The modulus of
