With the publication of the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG), the concept of load spectra has been implemented, which is currently the best representation of the distribution and damage of axle and vehicle type loads generated towards the pavement, leaving aside the traditional calculation of equivalent axles (ESAL) with its simple axle pattern of 18Kips (8.2 Ton) of the AASHTO-93 Guide. The Ministry of Transport (MTC) in its process of continuous improvement of the methodology used for the design of pavements, must begin to process the information that is being collected by the weighing stations installed in the National Road Network and take a first step to the characterization of the load of vehicular traffic through load spectra. Due to limited resources available for Level 1 (site-specific) traffic inputs for pavement design, this research paper provides pavement designers with a characterization of Level 2 traffic (regional, average) with respect to the vehicle composition and axle loads of the vehicles used in the design. For this purpose, traffic information (of at least four consecutive years) is collected from ten road sectors in the country from 13 weighing stations managed by transport concessionaires. For the processing of this large amount of data, an easy-to-use Python programming language program was developed to validate traffic information and then develop standardized distributions of truck traffic (vehicle composition) and the load spectra by axle and type of vehicle of each road under study. The standardized distributions of truck traffic were developed with the U.S. vehicle configuration of the FHWA obtaining similarity patterns in the percentage of vehicles of vehicle classes C04 (buses), C06 (trucks) and C10 (trailers). Regarding the axle load spectra, these were developed with the Peruvian vehicular configuration of the RENAV, obtaining a high percentage of overload in the weights of the vehicular axles and finding similarities in the load intervals of its two load peaks corresponding to the percentage of less loaded axles (unloaded vehicles) and the percentage of more loaded axles (vehicles with full load). From the results obtained it is determined that 49 % of the heavy vehicles on the road are overloaded and that the axle load spectra in their peak loads for the most loaded axles are close to the limit or exceed the maximum weight allowed by the RENAV. Finally, with the similarity patterns obtained in both variables (standardized distribution of truck traffic, axle load spectra) data groups with similar and different traffic characteristics between the groups were developed. For this, the K- means method was used to develop the groupings and the Jambú Elbow method to determine the optimal number of groupings, obtaining three groups of both variables, where the main difference in these groups corresponds to the percentage of vehicles of the type buses, trucks or trailers. In this way, in this research it is possible to develop the standardized distributions of truck traffic and the load spectra by axle and type of vehicle of ten sectors of road sections of the Concessioned Road Network. A form of grouping of these variables is developed with the K-means method and Level 2 traffic inputs are obtained that can be used by the pavement designer when he does not have as accurate traffic information as that of weighing stations.
