Abstract:
The Tegal Siwalan-Banyuanyar Highway in Probolinggo Regency has been damaged at several points and has not received any maintenance for the last 7 years. This has a huge impact on road users because it can interfere with driving comfort and safety, so it is necessary to analyze the road damage that has occurred, including the type of damage and an assessment of road conditions. The Bina Marga method and a light-weight deflectometer (LWD) can be used to assess road deflection in order to assess road condition.

Abstract:
Road pavement construction requires standard planning and evaluation of the foundation layer's structural strength. The commonly used standard is the California Bearing Ratio (CBR). In situ, road layer CBR value evaluation mainly uses a Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP), Sand Cone, or direct CBR. Using these tools requires a lot of equipment, time, and human resources; therefore, more efficient and practical in situ tests such as Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD) are needed. This research was conducted to find any correlation between the results of the LWD test and the results of Field CBR and DC

Abstract:
Resilient modulus has been used for decades as an important parameter in pavement structure design. Resilient modulus, like other elasticity moduli, increases with increasing confining stress and decreases with increasing deviatoric stress. Several constitutive models have been proposed in the literature to calculate resilient modulus as a function of stress state. The most recent model, recommended by the Mechanistic–empirical pavement design guide (MEPDG) and used in this paper, calculates resilient modulus as a function of bulk stress, octahedral shear stress, and three fitting coefficients

Abstract:
Abstract Improving subgrade strength can reduce a road's construction and maintenance costs. Additionally, it may lessen some of the environmental impacts from forest roads. However, most forest roads receive little effort to establish or control compaction because of the perceived increase in construction costs and potential delays in the flow of wood from the area. A light drop-weight deflectometer was tested on two forest roads in western Oregon to determine if this tool could aid with improving forest road construction by improving the quality of the road's subgrade. One road was built on

Abstract:
There is increasing effort to optimize test methods for evaluation of subgrade. It takes effect in aspiration in replacement of static plate loading test by other faster test methods. One of them is the use of Light Falling Weight Deflectometer. In many countries in Europe both static and dynamic plate tests are standardized. The presented paper introduces results of the research project dealing with the sensitivity of the relationship between static modulus and modulus obtained from the Light Falling Weight Deflectometer on specific types of soil. It is shown that there are significant differ
