Evaluation of the Pavement Structural Condition at Network Level Using Falling Weight Deflectometer (fwd) Data
Large amounts of seal coats and thin overlays are applied every year by state highway agencies to improve the surface condition of pavements, but these measures have not successfully prevented the problem from reoccurring. As a result, the overall pavement condition keeps deteriorating because of the structural deformation of pavement layers and the subgrade. To make effective decisions about t...
متن کاملFlexible Pavement Research
It is the purpose of this paper to point out the problems associated with flexible pavements, to summarize the research that the Joint High way Research Project has done in this field, and to outline present endeavors. In so doing, it must be recognized, first of all that flexiblepavement research, or the general problem of flexible-pavement design, consists of two parts. One of these is the m...
متن کاملFlexible Pavement Construction
Hot-mix asphalt (HMA) plays a vital role in the U.S. transportation system, and will continue to do so into the new millennium. Thus it is important to examine both the state of the art of and future prospects for HMA in a number of key areas, including the role of the user agency or owner, materials, processing, transportation, lay-down procedures, testing for quality and performance, work zon...
متن کاملArtificial Neural Network Application for Flexible Pavement Thickness Modeling
Flexible pavements are affected by moving vehicles, climate and other environmental factors. As a result of these factors, the pavement starts to deteriorate. In order to prevent further deterioration, a maintenance program should be carried out at right time and right places. For the determination of the structural carrying capacity of the pavement, non-destructive testing equipments are used....
متن کاملRe-Evaluation of the AASHTO-Flexible Pavement Design Equation with Neural Network Modeling
Here we establish that equivalent single-axle loads values can be estimated using artificial neural networks without the complex design equality of American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). More importantly, we find that the neural network model gives the coefficients to be able to obtain the actual load values using the AASHTO design values. Thus, those desig...
