The Wisconsin DOT (WisDOT), as many other State transportation agencies, has been a long-time user of the empirically-derived AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures for selecting new and rehabilitated pavement design treatments.
Completed
- Educational subscription limitations updated
- Integrated PMED and BcT web apps
- Updated creep compliance and dynamic modulus UI for consistence
Two short instructional videos on how to use the web application have arrived! “The Designer’s Corner” video shorts will help users with common design questions and issues. They are currently posted
Adding MSCR to the software:
The AASHTO M 332-18, Multiple Stress Creep Recovery (MSCR) test has been implemented by multiple agencies throughout the USA and Canada. At present, the MSCR test is not accepted by the PMED software but is recommended for a better evaluation of asphalt binder modifications.
PMED Feature Enhancement: Overview of the Implementation of Multiple Asphalt Overlays was held on August 22, 2023 and Drs. Praveen Gopisetti and Wouter Brink provided an overview and demonstration of the Multiple Asphalt Overlay
