The Kentucky flexible pavement design method was developed using mechanistic analyses based on elastic theory. Load equivalency relationships were developed as a part of that design procedures. A computerized procedure was developed that utilizes loadometer, average daily traffic (ADT), and vehicle classification data (both manual and automated) to estimate design ESALs. The automated procedure incorporates the same load equivalency relationships used in pavement design.
