Book Description
"This report describes the operation theory, installation procedures and operation guidelines for instrumentation selected to monitor changes in internal pavement moisture and thermal regimes, frost/thaw conditions, and external climate at test sections in the long-term pavement performance seasonal monitoring study. The instrumentation includes time domain reflectometry to measure moisture content of unbound materials, thermistor sensors to measure pavement temperature gradients and air temperature, electrical resistivity probes to measure frost locations, a piezometer to measure the depth of ground water table and tipping-bucket rain gauge to measure precipitation. These measurements of the external climate and the resulting changes in the pavement material will be coupled with monthly or more frequent deflection measurements, seasonal roughness measurements, elevation profile and distress surveys to study the cause and effects of seasonal changes in pavement structural response"--Technical report documentation page

Book Description
Established as part of the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) and now managed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) program faces a significant challenge. Over the past decade, the LTPP program has developed a solid knowledge base for understanding how pavements perform. Its challenge throughout its second decade is to build on this foundation--to further the understanding of why pavements perform as they do. To address this challenge, FHWA has initiated several efforts that require the support and active participation of the States and Provinces. The intent of this document is to describe the challenge the LTPP program faces and explain the efforts underway to address this challenge. This document is presented in the following sections: Introduction; The Challenge; Addressing the Challenge; Critical Issues; and Future Opportunities.

Book Description
This report summarizes the LTPP monitoring data collection activities for inclusion in the National Pavement Performance Database. The pavement condition monitoring data include identification of surface distress, profile measurements, deflection testing results, and surface friction measurements. The report also describes traffic, climate, maintenance, rehabilitation, and seasonal monitoring and data collection. Other results and products of the 5-year pavement condition monitoring activity are listed.

Book Description
As with the previous two symposia, the 32 papers from the June/July, 1999, Seattle symposium present advances in the nondestructive testing of pavements using conventional falling weight deflectometer techniques and other promising techniques such as ground penetrating radar, rolling weight deflecto
