Long Term Monitoring of Seasonal and Weather Stations and Analysis of Data from SHRP Pavements
External agents such as traffic and climate directly affect the life of flexible and rigid pavements. To understand the influence of these factors, a test road located on U.S. 23, just North of Delaware in Ohio, was constructed as part of the Federal Highway Administration's SHRP Program. Material properties and the effect of environmental factors on pavements were studied. Knowing the dynamic response of pavement materials and environmental factors to which they are exposed, back calculation procedures to estimate the resilient modulus and the modulus of subgrade reaction of the subgrade soil from non-destructive testing deflections were developed using ILLIPAVE and ILLISLAB for flexible and rigid pavements, respectively. Relationships between the resilient modulus at the break point and the degree of saturation were developed for the subgrade soil, while relationships between resilient modulus and temperature were developed for asphaltic materials. All test data, including moisture content, pavement and soil temperature and resistivity, as well as weather-related parameters collected at all instrumented sections at the test road were processed.
