H-20 and HS-20 Loading: Dynamic Load Sample Calculation

This document compares the loading capacities of different pavement systems. It shows that Rainstore3 has been tested to withstand H-20 highway bridge loading, which equates to 13.8 psi of pressure. Meanwhile, other products from the same company like Grasspave2 can withstand over 5,000 psi when filled, and empty can withstand over 2,000 psi of pressure, far exceeding typical highway requirements.

Dynamic Load Sample Calculation Surface Pressure

Wheel load = WL= 16,000 lbs (32,000 lb axle / 2) 32,000 for the rear axle
Dynamic Force = Fd = 1.2 (20% greater than static force)
Spread Area = A = 1496 si (12 cover w/45 degree angle) 32,000 lbs / 2 tires per
Weight of base = dy = 0.97 psi (12 road base @ 140 lbs/cf) rear axle = 16000 lbs

va = (WL x Fd / A) + dy 200 square inches contact* (20 x 10 )

va = (16,000 lbs x 1.2 / 1496 si) + 0.97 lbs 16000 lbs / 200 sq inches = 80 psi

va= 13.8 psi
