Nondestructive Structural Evaluation of Flexible Pavements. User's Manual. Volume 2
The objective of this research program was to develop a comprehensive methodology for evaluation of a flexible pavement system using a Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD). This objective was approached through extensive field deflection and laboratory testing of the selected pavement sections. Six pavement sections throughout the State of North Carolina were selected for this study. Two rounds of field deflection measurements were made using the FWD. Furthermore, materials from pavement sections were collected for laboratory testing. VESYS, a viscoelastic structural subsystem, was used to develop algorithms and nomographs for deflection basin interpretation. VESYS and three other methods (ELMOD, OAF, and MODCOMP2) were used to backcalculate in-situ pavement layer properties from deflection data.
