... 22 The main objective of the field study was to evaluate the effects of tack coat material type, application rate, and pavement surface type, on interface bonding and pavement performance during the first 12 months of service. For this purpose, 10 field projects were selected in six states and included 33 in-service test sections.

Both tack coat materials were sprayed at a 0.05 gsy residual application rate on four types of pavement surfaces: milled HMA, new HMA, existing HMA and PCC.

... 38 FWD testing before and after construction of overlays, problems associated with construction difficulties allowed FWD testing at 3 months of service. The average center deflections for all test sections decreased with time because of densification of HMA overlays and improved interface bonding; see Figure 4.7-5.
From page 39...
... 39 decrease in the average center deflections occurred after overlay construction because of the combined effect of added structural layer, densification due to trafficking, and improved interface bonding due to tack coat curing. 4.8.7 Summary of FWD Test Results Mean FWD center deflections decreased with service time in all field projects and for all pavement surface types.
