The work presented in this report is part of an on-going research project, whose central purpose is to support the Caltrans Quieter Pavement Research Program, that has as its goals and objectives the identification of quieter, smoother, safer and more durable pavement surfaces. The research has...

This report is one in a series that describe the results of HVS testing and associated analyses on a full-scale experiment being performed at the Richmond Field Station (RFS) to validate Caltrans overlay strategies for the rehabilitation of cracked asphalt concrete. It describes the analysis of...

Moisture damage in asphalt pavements is a complex phenomenon affected by a variety of factors, and has not been fully understood, with major knowledge gaps in three areas: major factors contributing to moisture damage in the field, appropriate laboratory test procedures, and the effectiveness of...

Truck traffic information is one of the key inputs in the design and analysis of pavement structures. Until relatively recently, truck traffic data typically were aggregated into equivalent repetitions of a standard axle load for pavement design. The mechanistic pavement design procedures being...
