Abstract

The monitoring effort undertaken as a part of the Long Term Pavement Performance studies of the Strategic Highway Research Program includes 3 types of nondestructive pavement testing: longitudinal profile measurement, photographic distress and cross-profile measurements, and deflection testing. A significant effort has been made to ensure the collection of uniform, high quality data. Substantial progress has been made, with first round data collection in all 3 areas essentially completed for nearly 800 GPS test sections.
