| 摘要： | Falling weight deflectometer (FWD) and truck tests were performed on three instrumented flexible pavement sections at the Minnesota Road Research project. The purposes of the study were (1) to investigate subgrade soil response under FWD and moving truck loads and (2) to estimate in situ resilient modulus of the subgrade soil. The truck tests were performed at various speeds ranging from 16 to 78 km/h. The subgrade deformations and the vertical pressures on the top of the subgrade soils were measured from in situ displacement and soil pressure gauges. The experimental results showed that the deformations and the vertical pressures, in general, did not show significant dependency of truck speed within the above speed range. However, a slight decrease of the vertical pressure with increase of speed was observed for a thin conventional pavement section, while the vertical pressure in a relatively thick pavement section appeared to be less sensitive to speed. The results from FWD tests indicated that the subgrade deformation was linearly related to the FWD loads up to approximately 40 kN. Furthermore, a method is presented to estimate in situ subgrade modulus using the linear elastic theory and the measurements from the in situ sensors. The estimated modulus is comparable with the laboratory results at a low deviator stress level and is lower than modulus obtained from the backcalculation using FWD deflection basins. |
