Abstract:

The objective of the research study was: to install a quartz-piezo based WIM system, and to

determine sensor survivability, accuracy and reliability under actual traffic conditions in

Connecticut’s environment. If the systems prove dependable and durable, and if additional

installations are made for statistical data gathering or for screening at weight enforcement locations,

the expected benefits from this study are: accurate traffic statistics and better estimates of traffic

loading; improved pavement design and subsequent longer pavement lives. The improved technology

also offers the potential for easy installation and reduced maintenance and less costly calibration

checking than for Piezo electric ceramic sensors.
