摘要: |
One of the most critical parameters in the structural analysis and design of new and rehabilitated pavements is the characterization of truck traffic. The technology of Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) has been implemented in many countries in order to measure the weight of individual axles and gross vehicle weight, while at the same time classifying vehicles at high speeds. In Puerto Rico, eleven WIM stations have been programmed for installation, ten of which were installed during 1997. These stations are located in the primary highway network to gather data that can be useful to evaluate the effect of representative types of trucks in the performance of in-service pavements. The mainactivities of this investigation consisted of characterizing the flow of trucks in the WIM stations and identifying typical trucks and possible patterns. |
