The purpose of the Roadway Evaluation Equipment Workshop was to bring to the attention of state transportation personnel the most recently developed equipment that is available for measuring and evaluating pavement condition. The equipment was discussed in formal presentations and was demonstrated at the Pennsylvania Transportation Institute's Research Facilities. Twenty-four presentations are included in this volume. Among the devices discussed are the Mays Ride Meter, Roughness Surveyor, ARAN, PURD, Swedish Laser Road Surface Tester, Falling Weight Deflectometer, Road Rater, Thumper, RODAR, Gerpho, and APL. In addition, presentations were made on testing and calibration methods that are essential for roadway management systems. Finally, future research and equipment needs were reviewed.
