Characterizing Existing Asphalt Concrete Layer Damage for Mechanistic Pavement Rehabilitation Design
The U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has released a report that analyzes the use of deflection-basin data to determine the in-place structural condition of asphalt concrete (AC) layers. Deflection basins are used to backcalculate the elasticlayer modulus of existing AC layers, which are considered input level 1 for rehabilitation designs.
