• Abstract:
  This report gives the theoretical background and a description of a new computer program, ELASTIC MODULUS, capable of converting deflections measured by a Dynaflect on the surface of a highway pavement subgrade (two-layer elastic) system, to the elastic moduli of the pavement and subgrade. Included with the report are instructions for the use of the program, a complete documentation of its operation, and the solutions of several example problems.
