| In vehicle automated falling weight deflectometer to provide non-destructive evaluation of strength of highway and airfield pavements. It is also useful for testing of bridges and other like applications. In vehicle automated falling weight deflectometer would provide for a more precise and effective measure of the strength of road and airport pavement to enable estimation of remaining strength and forecast appropriate strengthening measure using mechanistic approach will ahead of failure condition. Importantly the system would enable identification of deficiency in every layer of pavements more accurately. The deflectometer is easily transported form one place to another and thus favour its application and end use. The deflectometer is adapted to use power of running hydraulic pump is derived from the vehicle engine itself thereby avoiding need for a battery operated D. C. Motor and pump. The device is simple and easy to handle / use and also cost-effective. | |
