... 132 C H A P T E R 3 Findings and Applications The research team approached the project with an optimistic expectation that the proposed work plan was straightforward and would proceed without delay. However, as the work progressed, a number of tasks required more effort to accomplish than anticipated.

... 133 Analysis Method 1 examined the distribution of climate, traffic, and pavement structure data to select boundaries for establishing a matrix of subgroups. LTPP sections were assigned to the appropriate subgroup and 27 subgroups had a sufficient number of sections for further analysis.

... 134 Analysis Method 3 examined the dataset using ANN methodology. More detailed climate FI, layer material stiffness, and pavement structure layer thickness input variables were added to the dataset and all input variables were normalized so that each input was equally weighted in the analysis.
