PAVEMENT PROFILE SMOOTHNESS SEMINAR PROCEEDINGS, FT. COLLINS, COLORADO, OCTOBER 5-8, 1987. VOLUME III: WORKSHOP SUMMARIES. DEMONSTRATION PROJECT NO. 72 - AUTOMATED PAVEMENT DATA COLLECTION EQUIPMENT

The objective of this seminar was to demonstrate the state of the art in data collection equipment used in measuring pavement roughness and profile. In a workshop environment, information was provided for managers and technicians to meet the following specific objectives: (1) to present the theory of operation of pavement monitoring equipment, including items such as the characteristics of pavement profile, theory of equipment sensing devices, data storage, and data processing; and (2) to provide an overview of use and application of data in conjunction with planning, pavement management, and design. The report documenting the program is prepared in three volumes. Volume I, Data Seminar Overview, presents a general overview of the seminar. Volume II, Data Collection Equipment, provides detailed descriptions of the equipment demonstrated and data collected. Volume III, workshop summaries, contains a report on the workshop findings. Each volume is published separately.
