       Notes - general: This paper considers the effects of errors in
                        estimating the axle danage factor of commercial
                        vehicles on pavement life, and from the results
                        produced guidelines as to the required accuracy of the
                        axle damage factor.  An expression is developed that
                        expresses error in the axle weighing  error when they
                        occur in combination.  This expresson provides a means
                        of determining the various trade-offs that are
                        possible between the different types of axle weighing
                        error while maintaining their combined effect below a
                        maximum acceptable level.
