Temperature Correction on Falling Weight Deflectometer Measurements

Repeated falling weight deflectometer (FWD) tests were conducted at three sites. The tests were conducted at regular intervals for 2 to 3 consecutive days per location, and also done during different seasons in order that the widest possible range of temperatures could be obtained. The influence of cracks on temperature correction was also investigated. Temperature correction equations for deflection and moduli were developed so that users could...
