Abstract
Currently, several variations of F/HWD equipment exist on the market. The FAA National Airport Pavement Test Facility (NAPTF) Round-Up project provided an opportunity to examine different market available F/HWD equipment. This paper presents a case study of how the uncertainty of backcalculated in-situ moduli can be assessed and incorporated in the FAARFIELD design procedure to determine appropriate pavement thicknesses. The mean values and standard deviations of backcalculated layer moduli were computed and then input into FAARFIELD using Rosenblueth’s procedure to predict the reliability of a 20-year pavement design performance. The research shows that the proposed procedure can be used as an alternative decision-making tool for airport engineers to more realistically predict pavement life using F/HWD data.
