Abstract:This research project was conducted to evaluate the ground penetrating radar (GPR) for use as a tool to assist an Engineer in designing maintenance and rehabilitation solutions. GPR testing was conducted on 64 different pavement sections located around the state of Mississippi. GPR traces from 16 of these sections were evaluated in order to compare traces to visible and non-visible distresses. Based upon the conduct of the research, it was concluded that the GPR has the potential for identifying distresses within a pavement structure. Based upon the success of this research, it was recommended that an additional study be conducted to evaluate the remaining 48 pavement sections to further refine the benefits of the GPR.
