In 2010, ADOT contracted with Applied Research Associates, Inc.
The accompanying software, AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design, was released in 2011.

Pavement was analyzed by altering the thicknesses of bituminous courses by ± 25 percent. It should also be noted that in 2008, AASHTO released the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide: A Manual of Practice (MEPDG). For achieving that objective NHA (N-55) section of road in Sehwan Pakistan was taken as a reference pavement. Thus, the object of this research study is to analyze a flexible pavement with respect to rutting and fatigue distresses using KENLAYER software tool. Resistance to Rutting failure is checked by calculating vertical compressive stress at the top of soil sub-grade layer, while resistance to fatigue failure is checked by calculating horizontal tensile strain at the bottom of asphaltic layer using KENLAYER software tool. KENLYER software tool is utilized to calculated accurately stresses and strains in asphaltic pavement that are ultimately used in calculating allowance for rutting and fatigue failure utilizing Asphalt Institute design models or formulas. Below subgrade surface by 1/2 pavement depth 0.01-0.60-0.61-0.09-1.00-0.10-1.03E-04-1.04E-04 4.49E-05 4.49E-05 Depth Note: Stresses and strains here are as obtained from Kenpave (+ for compression and - for tenstion) Vertical Deflection Vertical Stress Major P. Throughout the report, procedure of the laboratory exercise and the results obtained from that software were discussed. During the practical, were able to design the both flexible and rigid pavements by using KENPAVE software. Thus, there is a need of using a Mechanistic based design methodology like KENPAVE software, so that traditional design errors should be overcome. Details on the use of the software can be found on the computer screen. For proper performance and good serviceability, these premature distresses should be resisted. Sudden variation of heavy axle loaded vehicles, improper mix design and traditional design methodologies used in pavement design industries are major factors behind these failures.
Abstract: Rutting and Fatigue are taken as main premature failures among all distresses, as these distresses have wide effect on performance of pavement.
