    Cumulative Damage Factor

    Uploaded by

    Tim Lin
    The document summarizes changes to the Federal Aviation Administration's pavement design methodology. It discusses replacing the "design aircraft" concept with a cumulative damage factor (CDF) approach that sums the damage from each aircraft based on its unique loading characteristics. The CDF is calculated for different strips across the pavement width based on each aircraft's gear location and load repetitions compared to the number allowed before failure. This considers the specific traffic mix at an airport rather than condensing all aircraft into a single design model.

    Cumulative Damage Factor from
    Presentation on AC 150/5320-6E
    by Rodney Joel

    Presented to: IQPC Pre-Conference Workshop A


    By: Gordon Hayhoe, FAA Airport Tech. R&D Branch
    Location: Carlton Hotel, Singapore
    Date: October 7, 2008
    Chapter 3 - Pavement Design

    Traffic Models
    New procedures require that ALL anticipated traffic
    be included in the traffic model.
    Concept of design aircraft is no longer used
    Cumulative Damage Factor (CDF) replaces need
    for design aircraft procedure.

    number of applied load repetitions


    CDF
    number of allowable repetitions to failure

    When CDF = 1, Design Life is Exhausted

    CDF is Calculated for each 10 inch wide strip over a
    total 820 inch width.
    Gear location and wander considered for each aircraft
    Use Miners rule to sum damage for each strip

    Must Input Traffic Mix, NOT Design Aircraft
