TPF-5(385) Pavement Structural Evaluation with Traffic Speed Deflection Devices (TSDDs)

Publication Information

Publication Type:
Fact Sheet
Publication Number:
FHWA-HRT-24-059
Abstract:

The Transportation Pooled Fund (TPF-5) (385) study established a research consortium that provides participating agencies with guidelines on collecting data with Traffic Speed Deflection Devices (TSDDs), including how to apply and interpret the data and integrate it into pavement management system (PMS) decisionmaking processes. The lack of available models makes acquisition and use of TSDDs by State agencies prohibitively expensive. The TPF study enables participating agencies to conduct pilot demonstration testing in their respective networks and share their findings with one another. Currently, 26 States participating in the study have tested TSDDs on their road systems or are planning to do so.
