Ground Penetrating Radar Survey of Interstate 70 Across Missouri. Sequence 2: Application of Ground Penetrating Radar to Highway Related Problems
Current geotechnical procedures for monitoring the condition of roadways are time consuming and can be disruptive to traffic, often requiring extensive invasive procedures (e.g., coring). Ground penetrating radar (GPR) technology offers a methodology to perform detailed condition assessment of existing roadways, with the added advantage over other techniques of being rapid and cost-effective. This study applies GPR techniques to a survey along Interstate 70 across the state of Missouri. Goals of this survey were threefold: (1) determine layer thicknesses every tenth mile (primarily asphalt and concrete, with base coarse information secondary); (2) update history information related to types of pavements that make up I70 across Missouri; and (3) note regions where the radar signal appears anomalous. Goals (1) and (2) are related and were the primary goals. Goal (3) required visually interpreting the full data set and was done as a guide for further investigation.
