It has been reported that the pavement performance predicted by the current mechanistic-
empirical pavement design shows low or no sensitivity to subgrade and unbound layers …

Lightweight deflectometers (LWDs) are being used more often for modulus-based quality
control of earthwork. One of the practical concerns about implementation of LWDs is that the …

The primary objective of this study is to recommend correction factors (CFs) for determining
equivalent laboratory resilient modulus (MR) values, given the corresponding unbound …

Intelligent compaction (IC) allows real-time monitoring of earthwork from vibration-based
measurements of the drum in contact with the ground. IC technology can be employed for …

The use of lightweight deflectometer (LWD) to estimate the moduli of geomaterials for quality
control (QC) of earthworks has gained attention among departments of transportation. The …

Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) current practice for field compaction quality
control and acceptance for base, subbase and soil layers is to determine the compacted …

Fatigue cracking in asphalt pavements is an indicator of structural failure, and early
detection of fatigue cracking would allow for improved preventive maintenance. The …

This research aimed to investigate the attenuation mode of the layer modulus of asphalt
pavement in accelerated pavement testing (APT). A full-scale experimental section was …

Current roadway quality control and quality acceptance (QC/QA) procedures for the
Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) include coring for …

For the past few decades, the stiffness of materials used for roadway design and
construction has been commonly characterized by the resilient modulus, defined as the ratio …
