DYNAMIC DEFLECTION STUDY FOR PAVEMENT CONDITION INVESTIGATION

This report presents a state of the art review of the dynamic deflection measurement, site condition evaluation and interpretation of pavement response characteristics. The significance of various deflection parameters and their relation to pavement performance are presented. Nomographs and design charts suitable for analysis of pavement moduli are developed. Field data document the dynamic deflection response of flexible concrete and various pavement layers, such as subgrade, and base course are presented. /FHWA/
