• Abstract:
  As part of its support for the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP), the Ohio Department of Transportation,
  
  in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration constructed a comprehensive test road encompassing four
  
  of nine experiments in the Specific Pavement Studies (SPS) of SHRP. The 3.4 mile long project is located on US 23
  
  in Delaware County. The Ohio/SHRP test road is a four lane divided highway constructed in the 170 foot wide
  
  median of the existing facility. The new southbound lanes were constructed of asphalt concrete (AC) and contain
  
  the SPS-1 and SPS-9 experiment. The new northbound lanes were constructed using Portland cement concrete
  
  (PCC) and contain the SPS-2 experiment. Once ODOT decided to participate in the SHRP, staff engineers viewed
  
  this as an opportunity to obtain pavement response data for validating and calibrating pavement analysis models.
  
  After review of the experimental design of the SHRP sections, thirty three of the forty original sections were chosen
  
  for environmental and dynamic load response instrumentation using a total of 1296 gages for measuring strain,
  
  deflection, pressure, moisture, temperature, and frost depth. Research was needed to calibrate, install, and to
  
  measure pavement response during controlled loading, moisture and temperature in the pavement structure, and
  
  climatic conditions above the pavement. Due to the large number of gages being installed, the effort was divided
  
  among six universities. The University of Cincinnati was one of two universities responsible for the calibration and
  
  installation of dynamic response instrumentation.
