purpose of calculating the 80 kN ESAL using the "simple"
method.Input RequiredThese calculations were taken from Figure 4-1
of the NYS Comprehensive PavementDo not ChangeDesign Manual (June
2000). Enter the parameters for items 1 through 8 below in the blue
blocks.The 80 kN ESAL count is calculated based on a compound
traffic growth rate andshould be used for SUPERPAVE.Enter data also

MIX ASPHALT,12.5 mm / 25.0 mm,NOMINAL MAX. SIZE12.5 mm25.0 mmThe
Contractor should be aware that this is a performance-related
specification in which the Contractor is0responsible for compacting
the pavement within a specified density range. In order to
successfully compactthe pavement to the specified density range,
the Contractor must be prepared to select, operate, and controlthe
paving and compaction equipment, to monitor the results, and to
make necessary adjustments (withoutdirection from the Engineer) to
achieve the desired results. Written instructions for determining
pavementdensity and core locations are available from the Regional
Materials Engineer or the Director, MaterialsBureau.The Performance
