Abstract

Developing countries like Turkey are trying to implement the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG). The implementation of this method requires comprehensive local data collection, evaluation, and, if necessary, a local calibration. The objective of this study is to prepare local data such as climate, traffic, and materials for evaluation and local calibration of MEPDG for Izmir City. For this purpose, the climate and traffic data were obtained, analysed, and converted to the MEPDG format. Besides, the bound and unbound pavement material properties were determined. Since some of the obtained local data like climate, vehicle classification, traffic growth factor, and axle load distribution cannot be directly used as design inputs, they were developed and converted to a suitable format to be used in the MEPDG. The output of this study can be used as design inputs for the evaluation and local calibration the MEPDG in Izmir and serves as a guide for data preparation for other parts of the country.

在土耳其伊兹密尔实施机械经验路面设计指南(MEPDG)的数据收集
像土耳其这样的发展中国家正在尝试实施《机械经验路面设计指南》(MEPDG)。该方法的实施需要全面的本地数据收集、评估,必要时还需要进行本地校准。本研究的目的是为伊兹密尔市MEPDG的评估和本地校准准备当地数据,如气候、交通和材料。为此,获取、分析了气候和交通数据,并将其转换为MEPDG格式。测定了粘结和非粘结路面材料的性能。由于获得的一些当地数据,如气候、车辆分类、交通增长系数和轴重分布等不能直接用作设计输入,因此我们对这些数据进行了开发并转换为适合的格式,以便在MEPDG中使用。本研究的结果可作为伊兹密尔MEPDG评估和本地校准的设计输入,并可作为该国其他地区数据准备的指南。

期刊介绍: The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed. Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering. Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.
