The report discusses the effect of heavy versus lighter axle loads on pavements. It shows how the effect of heaviest loads in terms of fatigue or long term breaking up will cause roads to need maintenance faster. The results of the AASHTO Road Test are used to show that the ratio of damage effect of 10-ton loads is a 30% decrease in road life. The beneficial effect of using tandem and tridem axles is illustrated.
