Optimizing Pavement Performance Through Advanced Testing Techniques
User A Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) is an impulse generating device with a guide system to evaluate the physical property of pavement. The resulting load- deflection data can be interpreted through appropriate analytical back calculation techniques, to estimate the elastic moduli of the pavement layers. Furthermore, using IRC 115, IRC 37 and IRC 117 codes the FWD data is primarily used to estimate pavement structural capacity for:
