Popis: | The viscoelastic nature of asphalt concrete (AC) renders its properties to be frequency dependent. Static backcalculation of layer moduli from falling weight deflectometer (FWD) testing does not take into account their frequency dependence. This paper shows the effect of frequency dependent AC properties on the horizontal strain and vertical deflection using the computer program SAPSI-M and field results. The analysis shows that the decrease in horizontal strain with increasing truck speed can be duplicated only by using frequency dependent properties for the asphalt concrete layer. |
