This report presents an Executive Summary of a comprehensive study conducted by ASU regarding a series of 11 separate projects relating to the implementation of the ME-PDG (developed under NCHRP 1-37A and NCHRP 1-40D)for the state of Arizona. The individual study project reports deal with the characterization of a variety of AC Binder types used by ADOT (Project 2); characterization results of E* Master Curve results for typical AC mixtures used in Arizona (Project 3); the characterization of these typical ac Mixtures for Thermal Fracture (Project 4), Permanent Deformation (Project 5), and Load associated Fatigue (Project 6). In addition, recommendations are made in Project 7 regarding the implementation of the SPT for AC Mixtures. Projects 8 & 9 focus on unbound bases/subbases and subgrades. Project 8 describes the results on non-linear Mr response on as variety of typical unbound bases and subgrades. Project 9 deals with the development of an unbound material permanent deformation database and development of a more universal permanent strain model. In the Project 10 study report, the state of Arizona has been subdivided, on the basis of relatively unique climatic regions based upon regional geomorphology. A total of 10 climatice regions in Arizona have been developed and a listing of current EICM weather stations found in the ME-PDG are identified by climatic region. Finally, Project 11 is a very comprehensive report study of the existing ADOT traffic files for eventual inclusion with the ME-PDG. A computerized (spreadsheet) traffic database of the entire ADOT highway network was conducted This database incorporates every mile of the Arizona highway network(6 Interstates; 13 U.S. Highways and 86 state highways). Four significant traffic factors are included in the database: Average Annual Daily Traffic(AADT), Annual Growth Rate (rg), Percent Trucks (pt), and Vehicle Classification Percentage (VCP). Relatively homogeneous traffic units were selected based on existing ADOT HPMS and VCP stations.
