4 Introduction Questions to Ponder!.. How different are pavements loaded under stationary or moving wheel loads? What different stress states are generated and felt by pavement layers? How close to field loading conditions do we test and characterize pavement materials? How critical is materials characterization for better/advanced pavement analysis and design?

61 Multiple Path Test Program Test Results P154 Deviatoric N = 10,000, % Dry Density, kn/m3 Single Path Multi Path Multiple path tests (much higher impact of compaction) Findings: High shear or deviatoric strains commonly linked to excessive rutting type shear failures Multiple stress path loading or moving wheel loads can cause significantly higher permanent deformations or damage in the loose base/subbase layers Supported by: By applying to the pavement element shear stress reversals through extension and compression loading, up to 3 times higher permanent deformations can accumulate when compared to those obtained from plate loading (French LCPC: Hornych et al., 2000)
62 Summary For a given pavement element, principal stress axes rotate as the wheel load moves away In pavement layers, stress states & hence stress path slopes (m) vary depending on the varying magnitudes of the applied dynamic stresses Lacking the ability to pulse in the horizontal direction, the AASHTO T test procedure can only conduct tests under m=3.0
63 Summary Former research indicates higher permanent shear strains and therefore more rutting may occur under stress path slopes other than CCP m = 3.0 Advanced stress path tests can take into account the effects of actual moving wheel loads & VCP conditions for a better simulation and characterization of pavement material behavior
64 Summary Modulus and permanent deformation models that analyze simultaneously the static and dynamic components of the applied stresses or the stress path length and slope of dynamic loading produced a high degree of accuracy Both compression and extension type loadings occur under rolling wheel loads. Extension loading due to moving wheel load effects may cause a reduction in modulus
65 Summary Two different test procedures, single stress path and multiple stress path,, were studied in the laboratory to simulate applied stress states due to stationary and moving (approaching and departing) wheel load conditions, respectively The permanent strains (volumetric and deviatoric or shear) obtained from the multiple stress path tests were consistently higher than those from the single path tests
66 Conclusion Pavement material characterization models should consider the effects of rotating extension- compression-extension extension type field stress states and shear stress reversals that take place under moving wheel loads (VCP testing) Further considerations or challenges include
