TRB will conduct a webinar on Thursday, May 30, 2019, from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM ET to discuss the applications of continuous pavement deflection. The ability to collect structural capacity information at traffic speeds is changing the way agencies evaluate their pavement needs. This webinar will explore how agencies may more effectively conduct pavement assessments. Presenters will also compare continuous deflection to traditional methods of assessing pavements.

This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committees on Pavement Structural Modeling and Evaluation and Pavement Condition Evaluation.
