摘要：	Highway agencies across the United States are moving from empirical design procedures towards the mechanistic-empirical (ME) based pavement design. Even though the Pavement ME Design presents a new paradigm shift with several dramatic improvements, it requires extensive data needs for the calibration and implementation process. Through the transportation pooled fund study TPF-5(242), the Prep-ME software is released with the capabilities of pre-processing, importing, checking the quality of Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) traffic data, and generating three levels of traffic data inputs with built-in clustering analysis methods for Pavement ME Design. This Phase III project is to assist participating state DOTs on the full implementation of Prep-ME software by delivering on-site and webinars training, providing timely technical support on a need basis, and addressing state’s feedback and comments. A new generation of Prep-ME software is delivered to the participating states with enhanced and customized features, which can be used by pavement design engineers to prepare input for Pavement ME Design, and traffic data collection engineers to collect better traffic data and manage those data for other applications.
