Download or read book Evaluation of Asphalt Overlay Permanent Deformation Based on Ground Penetrating Radar Technology written by Feng Hong and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Permanent deformation in materials can lead to rutting on an asphalt pavement. Rutting poses potential hazard to vehicles running on the pavement because of hydroplaning during wet weather conditions. To mitigate or remedy rutting, it is of critical importance to identify the sources and causes of the permanent deformation. Traditional methods mainly rely on cutting a trench to approach this issue. Despite the accuracy, it is labor intensive and time consuming, not to mention having a destructive characteristic. To improve on these, this study discusses the feasibility of potential use of a non-destructive technology with ground-penetrating radar (GPR). GPR is used to estimate the permanent deformation in an asphalt overlay on top of an existing concrete pavement. The GPR antenna mounted on a moving vehicle could detect pavement layer thickness at a fast speed. It also provides full coverage on the pavement along the driving direction. The permanent deformation is estimated by comparing the layer thicknesses between the right wheel path and lane center. In particular, the results could reveal the permanent deformation involving the following three critical aspects: (1) in which layer(s) the permanent deformation occurs; (2) where the permanent deformation is located along the driving direction; and (3) how significant the permanent deformation is.

Download or read book Civil Engineering Applications of Ground Penetrating Radar written by Andrea Benedetto and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, based on Transport and Urban Development COST Action TU1208, presents the most advanced applications of ground penetrating radar (GPR) in a civil engineering context, with documentation of instrumentation, methods and results. It explains clearly how GPR can be employed for the surveying of critical transport infrastructure, such as roads, pavements, bridges and tunnels and for the sensing and mapping of underground utilities and voids. Detailed attention is also devoted to use of GPR in the inspection of geological structures and of construction materials and structures, including reinforced concrete, steel reinforcing bars and pre/post-tensioned stressing ducts. Advanced methods for solution of electromagnetic scattering problems and new data processing techniques are also presented. Readers will come to appreciate that GPR is a safe, advanced, non destructive and noninvasive imaging technique that can be effectively used for the inspection of composite structures and the performance of diagnostics relevant to the entire life cycle of civil engineering works.
