“…The total length of the Test Road is 710 m and consists of 23 sections of 30 m, one section of 20 m and three sections of 15 m in length (in total 27). The width of the Test Road carriageway is 7 m, i.e., two lanes of 3.0 m, and two shoulders of 0.5 m. The road pavement structures (PSs) are designed for 100 kN axle load ESAL 100 = (0.8–3.0) million by Construction Technical Regulation STR 2.06.03:2001 Automobile Roads [23,24,25,26,27]. It has all necessary electronic sensors (loop profilers, temperature and moisture sensors and stress and strain transducers).…”

Environmental conditions (temperature, moisture and the intensity of the sun) influence variation in asphalt pavement strength during the year. Lithuania is situated in a zone by average warm summers and average cold winters, and the most important climatic factor is the variation of the air temperature. This study presents the influence of temperature (of asphalt concrete (AC) and subgrade layers) and moisture content (of subgrade layers) to the pavement bearing capacity. The experimental research was obtained in five pavement sections of the experimental road. This experimental road was constructed in 2007 in Lithuania and is operated for more than 12 years. This paper presents a statistical analysis between the bearing capacity and the thickness of the asphalt concrete layers, the temperature and moisture content of different pavement layers, among sections, loaded and unloaded lanes (right and left wheel paths and tracks). The bearing capacity was evaluated by a falling weight deflectometer (FWD), temperature and moisture content by electronic sensors and thickness of AC layers by Georadar. Analysis of overall E0 and E0,h9 (bearing capacity at a depth of 9 cm from asphalt surface) data declares that seasonal impact on pavement structural strength due to a change of subgrade bearing capacity remains after correction of asphalt stiffness dependent on the temperature in the layer. However, it was detected that neither E0 nor E0,h9 are related to moisture content at a depths of 100 cm, 130 cm and 150 cm.

“…Figure reports the time‐history of the horizontal transversal strain ε x calculated in A , whose values for the e‐road are thus estimated in the range of about 30–80 μstrain. Considering the linearity of the model and the actual range values detected for a traditional infrastructure from 10 to 250 μstrain (also influenced by the temperature) (Čygas et al., ), the introduction of a rail charging system is not expected to change appreciably the levels of stress and strain in an existing infrastructure, far from the WPT technology. In any case, the stress and strain distribution in the pavement near the charging device requires more investigation.…”

“…The process of implementing a damage detection and characterization strategy for structures and infrastructures is referred to as Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). This may be obtained by introducing sensors into the pavement (Čygas et al., ) and/or using techniques such as vibration‐based SHM (Qarib and Adeli, ) or acoustic emission monitoring (Seo and Kim, ). Monitoring is very important because the maintenance and the management of aging civil infrastructure systems, including bridges and tunnels, accounts for 40% of the total construction costs.…”

This paper determines the interaction between the physical indicators of frost blanket course and its deflection modulus, measured by static and dynamic devices. The Pilot Road has been selected to examine the strength properties (deflection module) of frost blanket course. A Pilot Road consisting of 27 road sections, divided into 5 different road structures. A Pilot Road has been selected to examine the strength properties (deflection module) of frost blanket course. In this research was determined the strength of frost blanket course in road pavement structures of Pilot Road by four devices: Falling Weight Deflectometer Dynatest 8000, Light Weight Deflectometers Prima 100 and ZORN ZSG 02 and Static Beam Strassentest. The results showed no reliable correlation between the deflection modulus, measured by different devices, and the physical indicators of the frost blanket course of the road pavement structures in Pilot Road.
