Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the total ESAL for a truck with three axle configurations, where axle 1 has 60 kN with 5000 passes, axle 2 has 100 kN with 2000 passes, and axle 3 has 140 kN with 1000 passes. The standard is 80 kN.

💡 Hint: Use the EALF formula for each axle and then sum up the results.

Question 2

Discuss and calculate how introducing a new truck with an axle load of 200 kN would change the EALF previously established for standard load assessments.

💡 Hint: Evaluate the comparative assessments and model based on the new EALF.
