Title: INERTIAL PROFILOMETER USES IN THE PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Accession Number: 00373014
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: The inertial profilometer has the potential to become one of the most important tools in the pavement condition evaluation process. This paper discusses its continuing development, including a noncontact profile sensor, digital profile computation, and an array of computer software developments that will further enhance the inertial profilometer's contribution to the pavement management process. For historical purposes the paper also discusses the original development of the inertial profilometer at the General Motors Research Laboratories in the early 1960s and its introduction into the user community by K.J. Law Engineers, Inc. (Author)
