Asphalt Pavement Design for Truck parking area
(OP)
Is there a guide or info available for truck parking areas? Is there info avaialble about delayed use of parking area until pavement "sets"?? Anything I can do/use in the pavement design to keep trailer jacks from sinking (other than using concrete or steel plates)???

I would recommend an aging period for the asphalt; however, it usually takes a complete season cycle for this to work (placed in hot weather, goes through winter, back to hot)....most projects/clients don't have this kind of time to wait. That's why the usual (and probably the best) solution is to use a concrete "dolly strip".
