This report provides a detailed description of types of sensors, installation methodology, calibration procedures and wiring schematics for instrumentation of pavements for the Ohio Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) Specific Pavement Studies (SPS) Test Road to measure environmental factors and structural response. Environmental or climatic parameters include temperature, base and subbase moisture, and frost depth. Structural response parameters entail strain, deflection, pressure, and joint opening. A total of eighteen sections will be instrumented for the study of seasonal factors, ten more sections than required by SHRP. |
