Vehicle Type

RSAPv3 currently has three vehicles types by default:   Motorcycles (i.e., FHWA class 1), Passenger Vehicles (i.e., FHWA class 2-3) and Trucks (i.e., FHWA class 4-13).   The entered Vehicle type distribution is used in the trajectory module.   Vehicle characteristics are distributed across the trajectories using the values shown.   The default values are zero percent motorcycle, 90 percent passenger vehicles, and 10 percent trucks.   The values may be changed, as appropriate for the project, however the total distribution must equal 100 percent to proceed to the next screen.   Additional types of vehicle may be added but not by the casual user.   Procedures for adding vehicle types are included in the Engineer's Manual.
