Book Application of Full scale Accelerated Pavement Testing

Download or read book Application of Full scale Accelerated Pavement Testing written by J. B. Metcalf and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1996 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis, which describes the state of the practice for full- scale accelerated pavement testing (APT), will be of interest to state department of transportation (DOT) pavement design and materials engineers; DOT research staff, including field and laboratory materials testing personnel; and private industry APT equipment suppliers. State DOT administration and management personnel will have a particular interest in the application of APT results toward more efficient and effective pavement designs. Local transportation agencies may also have an interest in the topic. This synthesis reviews the capabilities and limitations of the major APT facilities available worldwide and describes the role and application of full-scale accelerated pavement testing in the development of pavement technology. This report of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) presents data obtained from a review of the literature and a survey of the state DOTs, Canadian transportation agencies, and international organizations. A brief historical overview of APT, a discussion of the application of APT to research, and the application of APT to practice are included. Profiles of APT facilities throughout the world are included in an appendix.

Book State of the Art of Pavement Response Monitoring Systems for Roads and Airfields Symposium Held March 6 9  1989 in West Lebanon  New Hampshire

Download or read book State of the Art of Pavement Response Monitoring Systems for Roads and Airfields Symposium Held March 6 9 1989 in West Lebanon New Hampshire written by Vincent Janoo and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pavement Instrumentation, although proven to be of great benefit in understanding pavement response and in setting design criteria, has not been applied routinely. There may be several reasons for the infrequent use of instrumentation. For example, early instrumentation was difficult to install and sensitive to installation and use. The failure rate required, significant redundancy. Installation, maintenance, data collection and data reduction were expensive. Therefore, benefits compared to costs were considered marginal. Analytical methods were considered in many cases adequate to estimate pavement responses due to the effects of load, climate and materials, etc. In a number of cases the problems of data reduction and analysis overwhelmed researchers. As a result, manual techniques were often relied upon to obtain results. These data often have been filed without complete analysis. Starting in about 1985 several U.S. Highways agencies initiated research projects with pavement instrumentation.

Book Wirelessbox  Multifunctional Road Monitoring System

Download or read book Wirelessbox Multifunctional Road Monitoring System written by Natasha Bahrani and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumentation of pavements is one of the most effective methods to monitor pavement condition. The objective of this thesis is to develop a multifunctional system for pavement monitoring. This system is based on the measurement of pavement deflections, using geophones or accelerometers, and pavement temperatures. Deflection is a key indicator of the structural response of pavements, as it characterises the global stiffness of the pavement, and can be used to back-calculate pavement layer moduli. Different geophones and accelerometers have been selected and tested in the laboratory first and then at the accelerated pavement testing facility, to evaluate their response, under loadings representative of the field conditions. These tests helped understand the influence of different parameters, such as loading speed, load position and temperature on the sensor response. Methods of back-calculation of pavement layer moduli using the measured deflection basins were also developed To further elaborate the applicability of these sensors on a real road under heavy traffic, these sensors were installed on a French motorway site, and connected to a wireless data acquisition system. From the data over a period of about 2 years, the analysis of seasonal variations of deflections, in relation with temperature variations, but also the identification of vehicle types, calculation of vehicle speeds and estimation of vehicle loads. This study demonstrates different applications of geophones and accelerometers for the instrumentation of pavements, and shows the potential offered by remote monitoring systems to better evaluate pavement behaviour.
