From page 1...
... 1 CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION Introduction Recent studies have determined that some load-related fatigue cracks in asphalt pavement layers can be initiated at the pavement surface and propagate downward through the asphalt layer.
From page 2...
... 2 Design software needs in order to accurately predict the appearance and growth of top-down cracking. The catalog of measured and collected data in electronic form is another major deliverable of this project.
From page 3...
... 3  The second chapter presents a synthesis of current knowledge of characterizing and modeling of top-down cracking in asphalt pavements.  The third chapter presents the research plan of this project.
