Performance Criteria

The following controls, located on the Input -> Simulation Parameters Page, are used to specify the performance criteria associated with the Mechanistic-Empirical simulation.

The performance criteria values are those that constitute failure for rutting and cracking. These criteria will show up on the graphs (as horizontal lines) of performance curves so you cans see if the limits have been exceeded during the Design Life.

These controls are readonly for all CalME users other than those assigned to the Research Group. CalME users in the Research Group are permitted to change the Performance Criteria parameters.

The question mark in the blue circle in the upper-right of the control group allows you to get help on the controls (this topic).
