More than 30 papers present a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in and the future direction of nondestructive testing (NDT) of airport and highway pavement using conventional falling weight deflectometer (FWD) technique and other promising techniques such as ground penetrating radar (GPR), rolling weight deflectometer (RWD) testing, and seismic techniques.
International representatives present both the practical as well as the developmental aspects of NDT of pavements in seven areas:
- Deflection Testing and Backcalculation of AC Pavements
- Deflection Testing and Backcalculation-Seasonal Variations
- Dynamic Cone Penetrometer Testing
- Deflection Testing and Backcalculation of PCC Pavements
- GPR and Newer NDT
- Dynamic Analysis of Deflection Data
- Rolling Weight Deflectometer
