Using the recommended performance-related specifications, a highway agency can, upon construction, predict the performance of a pavement and forecast the pavement\u2019s life-cycle costs. The benefits to the agency from using such specifications can be significant. This report contains a User Guide for the computer software that assists in the development, use, and analysis of the specifications. This report will be of interest to engineers concerned with quality assurance, specifications, and construction of concrete pavements.113
