Modernisation of measuring probes for monitoring permanent deformations and temperatures in road structures

Abstract

The work is devoted to research in the field of development and modernisation of universal measuring equipment (measuring probes) to obtain information on the deformation processes of pavement layers and subgrade soil under dynamic loads of moving transport on highways, as well as on specially created testing grounds. The equipment presented allows receiving data in automatic mode day and night and the data is transmitted to a remote server via a wireless channel. Measuring probes are installed during the construction phase of the road structure and, in fact, form a single unit with it, which excludes any impact on the road structure. This upgrade will reduce the time it takes to build a monitoring station and will also increase the reliability of the equipment.
