3. A pavement is subjected to "tandem-axle loads” for a day as shown the table below. Determine the ESAL for a design period of 20 years using Asphalt Institute's equivalent axle load factors (ELF) provided in the next page. Please consider 4% growth factor for the ESAL calculation. (20 points) ELF (Fi) FiNi Number per day (Ni) 370 Axle load (kip) 18 20 22 162 111 24 186 26 156 28 122 30 60
