The South Dakota Flexible Pavement Research Project
The report describes a comprehensive statewide investigation of selected in-service flexible pavements. The study was initiated in 1957 to determine the effects of geology, soils, climate , traffic and materials on pavement performance and cost, and to evaluate the existing design method. Most of the data was collected prior to 1963. However, the pedological mapping of each pavement project included in the study was not concluded until 1968. In the interim period much of the analysis was completed. Thirty-four projects, each having one of three different surface course types and located in one of six different major soil areas were selected for study. Traffic history was also considered. Testing operations included plate bearing, field CBR, Benkelman beam, BPR-type roughometer, Condition surveys, thickness measurements, material sampling and limited laboratory tests of materials. Field testing was generally conducted in the spring, summer and fall of each year. (BPR abstract)
