Comparison of Idaho Pavement Design Procedure with AASHTO 1993 and MEPDG Methods
Several in service pavements located in different regions of Idaho that have been designed according to the ITD design method were redesigned using the AASHTO 1993 as well as the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) procedures. All designs were conducted at a 50% reliability level. The nationally calibrated MEPDG (version 1.1) was used to predict the performance of the three design methods. Level 2 subgrade material characterization inputs were used in the MEPDG analysis. All other MEPDG inputs were level 3. Performance indicators predicted using MEPDG related to the three design methods were compared to each other. Results showed that, relative to AASHTO 1993 and MEPDG procedures, ITD design method significantly overestimates the thickness of the pavement structure, and particularly the thickness(s) of the unbound layer(s). On the other hand, the AASHTO 1993 and MEPDG guides show reasonable agreement on the resulting pavement structure.
