Accelerated load tests with a heavy vehicle simulator

Accelerated load tests with a heavy vehicle simulator

A full-scale accelerated structural load test was performed in the scope of field trials conducted to investigate the effect of various strengthening actions on weak pavements. The asphalt layer thickness varied from 6.5 cm to 13.6 cm. The results of deformations applied on test structures are prese...
