Ground penetrating radar and FWD (Falling Weight Deflectometer) - we improve the quality of work by combining

Watching the progress in science and technology is pleasant and even more enjoyable to participate in these processes. The practical significance of a comprehensive assessment of the information obtained by each method forms new approaches to optimizing road activities. We developed a special plug-in in GeoReader software to compare GPR survey data with FWD data, as you know. In the collection of scientific papers "Roads and bridges" No. 46, an article by the candidate of technical sciences R.A. Eremin and Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor A.M. Kulizhnikov (FAI "ROSDORNII") on the topic "EXPERIENCE OF INTEGRATED SURVEYS OF PAVEMENTS BY GPR AND FWD". It uses GPR to assess the strength of road pavement on highways

In particular, based on the abstract, the work explains:

- the experience of combined use of GPR and FWD in the inspection of roads to determine the strength properties of road pavements
- analysis of home and foreign experience of comprehensive surveys since 1998
- the main parameters obtained from the results of FWD and GPR surveys and currently used in calculations of the strength of pavements
- ways to improve the methodology for the integrated calculation of road structures for strength
