Permanent Deformation of Flexible Pavements.

Abstract

The report describes the first year's work on investigation of permanent deformation which develops in flexible pavements as a result of applied moving wheel loads. Hopefully, this research will increase knowledge on permanent deformation so that pavement design precedures can be improved, particularly as pertains to areas involving new conditions of environment, loading and materials. A literature survey is presented. The report is in two parts: Equipment and instrumentation development; and theory and associated computations.
