The practice of overloading increases as the control of heavy vehicle decreases. This chapter deals with a study that does a continuous road assessment concerning strains, stress, moisture and temperature of pavement as well as recording dynamic load effort. The study was developed in an experimental track located near Ararangua city, in the south of Brazil. The first activity considers pavement instrumentation, with sensors installed in each pavement layer and weigh‐in‐motion sensors installed on the pavement surface. The second activity consists of performing the fatigue test and the complex modulus determination. The pavement mechanical behavior is evaluated in the laboratory, which provides information to the pavement deterioration model. It can be assured that any increase on the load over the axles is the major problem for pavement performance and consequently contributes to reduce pavement life.
