Studies of Benkelman Beam Deflections for Rural Roads

Rakhi Shah

Abstract


Finding out the pavement's current state is the primary goal of the performance pavement evaluation.The process of evaluating pavement include determining the structure's structural and functional suitability as well as its capacity to support future traffic volumes.Pavement evaluation is done to see whether new technology is superior to older technology.to calculate the pavement soil's current load-bearing capacity.
