THE AIM WAS TO TEST THE EQUIPMENT DEVELOPED FOR RECORDING DEFLECTIONS IN PAVEMENTS, UNDER ACTUAL WORK CONDITIONS AND, TO ASSESS THE FEASIBILITY OF APPLYING PAVEMENT STRENGTHENING DESIGN METHODS. DETAILS ARE GIVEN OF TIRE TESTS (ABOUT 700), MEASUREMENTS OF THE THICKNESS OF THE STRENGTHENING LAYERS, SAMPLING OF THE PAVEMENT, AND EVALUATION OF SURFACE EVENESS. RESULTS ARE PRESENTED AND MENTION MADE OF THE EVOLUTION IN THE REBOUND DEFLECTIONS DUE TO STRENGTHENING. /RRL/
