       Notes - general: Tests were carried out at the Pavement Test Facility
                        to investigate the relative effects on pavement wear
                        of single and dual wheels and the different types of
                        tyre pressures.  The results suggest that single
                        wheels cause substantial more wear, both in terms of
                        fatigue and deformation, than dual wheels for the same
                        wheel load.  In comparison the effect of changes to
                        tyre pressure appear to be relatively small.
