Abstract:

This design pamphlet addresses this problem by presenting procedures for interpretation of pavement deflection data. Two companion pamphlets-Design Pamphlet for the Determination of Design Subgrade Moduli in Support of the 1993 AASHTO Guide for the Design of Pavement Structures (FHW A-RD-97-083) and Design Pamphletfor the Determination of Layered Elastic Moduli in Support of the 1993 AASHTO Guidefor the Design of Pavement Structures (FHWA-RD-97-077)-provide additional, related guidance on selecting appropriate design values to characterize the pavement materials and the subgrade soil.
