• Abstract:
  The MIT-Scan-T2 device is marketed as a non-destructive way to determine pavement thickness on both
  
  HMA and PCC pavements. PCC pavement thickness determination is an important incentivedisincentive
  
  measurement for the Iowa DOT and contractors. The thickness incentive can be as much as
  
  3% of the concrete contact unit price and the disincentive can be as severe as remove and replace.
  
  This study evaluated the potential of the MIT device for PCC pavement thickness quality assurance.
  
  The limited testing indicates the unit is sufficiently repeatable and accurate enough to replace core
  
  drilling as the thickness measurement method. Further study is needed to statistically establish the single
  
  user and multi-user/device precision as well as establish an appropriate sampling protocol and PWL
  
  specification.
