OBSERVATIONS OF SOME POINTS OF EN1 ROAD, NEAR PORTO DE MOS CROSSING /IN PORTUGUESE/

THE OBSERVATIONS CONSISTED OF EVALUATING THE BEARING CAPACITY, CRACKING AND ROUGHNESS OF THE PAVEMENT. THE AIM WAS TO INVESTIGATE CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE BEHAVIOR OF PAVEMENTS, E.G. THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE PARAMETER CHARACTERISTIC OF THE SHAPE OF THE DEFLECTION CURVES AND THE ELASTICITY. THE ELASTICITY MEASURED IN THE COURSE OF THREE YEARS, TWICE A YEAR, WAS EVALUATED AND THE DETERIORATION UNDER WINTER CONDITIONS WAS ASSESSED. METHODS OF QUANTIFYING THE EVENNESS OF THE PAVEMENT WITH REGARD TO THE LONGITUDINAL PROFILE WERE ALSO STUDIED. /RRL/
