Reflective Cracking Study: HVS Test Section Forensic Investigation

This report is one in a series of first-level analysis reports describing the results of Heavy Vehicle Simulator (HVS) testing on a full-scale experiment designed to validate California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) overlay strategies for rehabilitating cracked asphalt concrete. It describes the results of the forensic investigation on the HVS rutting sections (Sections 580RF through 581RF) and HVS reflective cracking testing sections (Sections 586RF through 591RF). The report provides information on the experiment layout, pavement design, and HVS test details, as well as summarizing the forensic investigation procedure, observations and results. The objective of this project is to develop improved rehabilitation designs for reflective cracking for California by evaluating the reflective cracking performance of asphalt binder mixes used in overlays for rehabilitating cracked asphalt concrete pavements.
