HVS Test Results of Innovative Anti-Fatigue Cracking Pavement

The purpose of the research project described in the paper was the evaluation of the effectiveness of additional pavement layers called the Anti-Fatigue Cracking (AFC) asphalt layer. Pavement test sections were constructed and instrumented to be loaded by Heavy Vehicle Simulator (HVS – machine from Swedish VTI was applied). Paper presents the HVS test result comparing the new pavement concept with the "traditional” High Stiffness Modulus long life pavement as well as laboratory test results of materials, and mixtures.
