Evaluation of Full-Depth Asphalt Pavements

E. O. Lukanen

This research investigation, conducted by the Physical Research Unit of the Minnesota Department of Transportation, began in 1971 to learn more about the behavior of Full-Depth asphalt pavements. The investigation has 26 test sections, each 1200 feet (365.8m) long, of a variety of thicknesses, on a variety of soils. The thicknesses range from approximately 5 inches (12.7 cm) to 17-1/2 inches (44.5 cm) and soil types include AASHO soil classification A-2-4's, A-3's, A-4's, A-6's and A-7-6's. These soils include a stabilometer R-value range of 5 to 75. The major portions of the research work on this investigation consisted of Benkelman beam measurements on the test sections at 50 foot (15.2 m) intervals, taken weekly throughout the spring, biweekly throughout the summer, and monthly into the fall.
