Load capacity measurements with the traffic speed deflectometer (TSD)
This article shows that assessment of the structural pavement condition plays a crucial role in an economic pavement maintenance planning. Therefore, investigations are necessary in order to develop a suitable background for the qualitative and quantitative assessment of load bearing capacity of asphalt constructions.
