Assessment of Continuous Deflection Measurement Devices in Louisiana – Rolling Wheel Deflectometer
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development has released a report that analyzes structural capacity indicators in predicting pavement structural deficiency based on rolling wheel deflectometer (RWD) measurements. The report also develops a methodology to integrate structural capacity indicators into the Louisiana Pavement Management System. RWD measures deflections at highway speeds, which can offer the potential to characterize the structural capacity of pavements efficiently and cost-effectively.
