Determine the truck factor for this section of highway. Assume SN = 4 and pt = 2.5.

An axle weight study on a section of highway gave the following data on axle load distribution:





What will be an ideal response?


The following table shows the given data and the load equivalency factors taken,

by interpolation if necessary, from Table 19.5a and Table 19.5b.



Total for single axle load group = 251.730



Total for tandem axle load group = 206.205

Total = 251.730 + 206.205 = 457.935

Truck factor = 471.741/1000

Truck factor = 0.4717
