Use of Accelerated Pavement Testing to Evaluate Maintenance and Pavement Preservation Treatments
Accelerated pavement testing (APT) has predominantly been used for understanding pavement behavior for design and rehabilitation of pavements, with less emphasis on maintenance and pavement preservation applications. This has primarily been driven by need, and partly by the assumption that APT is not suited to maintenance and pavement preservation treatments due to the low test speeds. However, with road authorities in much of the world spending considerably more on maintenance and pavement preservation than new construction, the use of APT has been explored as a means of providing rapid comparison and evaluation results that can aid in the selection of optimal treatments. The purpose of TRB's 86th Annual Meeting Session 594 (presented in 2007) was to present and discuss experience where APT has been successfully used for the assessment of pavement preservation and maintenance strategies.
