AcCOM <br />Data and Sources <br />Pavement Loadings <br />Pavement Management Loading Study <br />City of Santa Ana, California <br />Street classifications, pavement types, and street areas were obtained from the Santa Ana <br />Pavement Management Program report, June 2014 and PAVER Data spreadsheets, August <br />24, 2015. Secondary and collector arterials were combined for analysis due to their <br />similarities in structure and traffic loadings. <br />Typical street pavement sections are as shown in the full depth reconstruction lines of the <br />Santa Ana Design Standards for Arterials and Locals. These were used to determine the <br />asphaltic concrete pavement structural number (SN) and concrete pavement thickness for <br />the ESAL calculations. <br />Total traffic volumes for arterials were obtained from the Santa Ana Traffic Census for 2013- <br />2014. Traffic volumes for representative street segments within each street class were <br />identified to calculate an average daily traffic volume (ADT) for each street class. <br />ADT traffic volumes for local streets were estimated based on generalized land use trip <br />generation, experience, and engineering judgment. <br />Total truck volumes and classes on major and primary arterials were obtained from <br />CalTrans June -July, 2015 truck classification counts supplied by the City. Truck counts <br />were not available for other arterials and local streets. For those streets the total truck <br />volumes and classes for those streets were estimated using the 2015 counts as starting <br />points and applying engineering judgment. <br />Waste collection truck types, axle weights, and volumes for each street class were provided <br />by Waste Management of Orange County. <br />Orange County Transit Authority (OCTA) Transit bus volumes were obtained from the route <br />schedules for the Orange County Transit Authority. Representative routes were reviewed <br />for each street class for weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and average bus volumes <br />were calculated. OCTA bus weights were obtained from technical information provided by <br />the agency. <br />Santa Ana Unified School District ( SAUSD) school bus volumes and trip locations were <br />estimated by engineering judgment. SAUSD bus weights were based on representative <br />weights for typical school buses. <br />Street sweeping locations, sweeping frequency, and sweeper weights were provided by <br />Santa Ana Public Works Maintenance. <br />Axle load equivalency factors for calculating ESALs from axle weights were obtained from <br />the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Guide <br />for Design of Pavement Structures, 1993. (1993 Pavement Design Guide) <br />ESAL constants for calculating ESALs based on vehicle type were obtained from the <br />CalTrans Highway Design Manual, Table 613.3A. The 10 -year ESAL constant was adjusted <br />down to a one week ESAL constant. <br />AECOM Project No. 60477125 <br />om � ', <br />June 21, 2016 <br />Page 2 of 11 <br />
