Abstract

The results of an investigation of the effects of temperature and location variables on Dynaflect deflections measured on rigid pavements are presented. All the experimental work described in this paper was carried out during the fall and summer of 1981 on a new 10-in.-thick, continuously reinforced-concrete pavement near Columbus, Texas. Dynaflect deflections and the top and bottom temperatures of the concrete slab were analyzed by using analysis of variance and multiple linear-regression techniques. The findings of this study are included in a procedure recommended for making Dynaflect measurements and for applying suitable temperature corrections to deflections measured near the pavement edge.
