41 FATIGUE ENDURANCE LIMIT Damage and Healing Concepts and Test Data Support a Strain Limit Below Which Fatigue Damage Does Not Accumulate Strain Limit Is Not The Same for All HMAs.

42 Significance of Fatigue Endurance Limit.such a limit would provide a thickness limit for the pavement..increasing the thickness beyond the limiting thickness would provide no increased structural resistance to fatigue damage and represent an unneeded expense. Prof. Carpenter
