Abstract:This report is the second in a three-volume series dealing with the development of an improved overlay design procedure for Oregon. This report presents the results of the second-year findings. Data from five projects were collected and analyzed using both NDT methods 1 and 2 from the 1986 AASHTO Guides. The overlay thickness using the AASHTO procedure was compared with the overlay thickness using the Caltrans and Oregon DOT methods. Though the results indicate there is reasonable comparison between the various methods, the authors have concluded that: (1) NDT method 1 still needs further work, particularly in developing reliable backcalculation methods; and (2) NDT method 2 can be used now with reasonable confidence.
