EPPING, N.H., Jan. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Infrasense recently conducted pavement structure/condition evaluations of a six-mile highway section in New Hampshire. A vehicle-based Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey yielded continuous pavement layer thickness data along prescribed offsets within the project section. Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) testing was also performed at over 120 locations along the project section, which provided the data needed to calculate layer moduli, effective structural number (SN), remaining service life and required overlay thicknesses. Traffic Speed Deflectometer (TSD) data yielded deflection bowl measurements and was accompanied by surface distress data (rutting, cracking, IRI). The results provided the client with valuable information to facilitate rehabilitation design efforts. Deliverables included tabular and graphical datasets with each point linked to precise GPS coordinates. The GPR datasets help visualize how the constructed layers of the roadway change along the length of each lane, while the FWD and TSD datasets present remaining lift, overlay thickness, structural number, and subgrade modulus along the length of each lane.

Key Points: 
  • Infrasense recently conducted Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) testing along highway NH-101.
