The objective of this study was to conceive and develop a decision-making tool for evaluating sustainability of pavement designs and products, based on a cradle-to-gate analysis. This tool is based on EPD in order to enhance the reliability of the analysis. It was developed to be integrated with a state-of-the-art pavement design method such as the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG), as well as the AASHTO 1993 pavement design method. The tool was developed for pavement designers and decision makers in the evaluation of alternative designs and products by optimizing pavement mixes.
