Pavement Testing, Analysis and Interpretation of Test Data
Botswana-guideline-2-pavement-testing-analysis-and-interpretation-of-test-data-2000 ; Pavement testing and interpretation of test data is a fundamental phenomenon in the proper monitoring and maintenance of road pavements in an economic way. The first generation roads in Botswana have either reached, exceeded or are about to reach their design life and would require major rehabilitation. The traffic has increased tremendously on the Road Network, both in terms of number and axle loading, which means that the rehabilitation will require a considerable amount of funding. The optimal use of such funds will depend on the timely intervention of maintenance and rehabilitation using the most appropriate technology. A significant proportion of the work of the Materials and Research Division of Roads Department involves both pavement field testing and the analysis and interpretation of pavement test data. This information is used for the determination of the pavement condition and maintenance requirements and to guide the road rehabilitation plans. Hence, it is in recognition of the importance of accurate data collection and its interpretation that guidelines on the “Pavement Testing, Analysis and Interpretation of Test Data” had to be prepared in order to improve and streamline in-house capacity for pavement assessment and reporting as well as ensure continuous use of compu ter tools and analysis techniques used in the process, some of which were developed in-ho
