60 tons. This includes car parks and access roads with low
speeds. In areas of pedestrian loading, traffic load is normally
assumed to be 0 kN/m². In areas with traffic loading, a distinc-
tion must be made between point loads and distributed loads.
Point loads decrease exponentially as depth increases, partly
related to the angle of friction. The fill material reduces the
point load and causes the traffic load to be evenly distributed.
