Abstract:

This document summarizes nine Accelerated Pavement Testing (APT) programs and the data collection efforts of these programs. The particular programs were chosen for presentation in this document because detailed surveys were completed or published documents were available. The programs chosen are thought to provide a reasonable overview of not only the standard data collection practices but also the gaps in these standards. The programs are as follows: Texas Mobile Load Simulator (TxMLS); South African Heavy Vehicle Simulator (SA HVS); Californian Heavy Vehicle Simulator (CALHVS); Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL); Dutch LINear TRACKing Apparatus (LINTRACK); Australian Accelerated Loading Facility (ALF/AUSTR); Danish Road Testing Machine (RTM); French Laboratoire Central des Ponts et Chaussees test facility (LCPC); and Spanish CEntro De Estudios De Carreteras test facility (CEDEX). This report identifies data that are being, or need to be, recorded in APT programs. It also addresses gaps in the survey itself with the inclusion of comments by survey respondents and the authors.
