The article presents clarifications of the article "Development of Fatigue Cracking Prediction Models Using Long-Term Pavement Performance Database," by Hsiang-Wei Ker, Ying-Haur Lee and Pei-Hwa Wu, published in the 2008 issue. It explains several key points in the article, including the phenomenon of fatigue mechanism of asphalt pavement and the distribution of the actual fatigue cracking. The article also discusses the equations used in ascertaining the load repetition and pavement age.
