2、er in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide provides procedural information for measur-ing pavement surface deflections,directly under,or at locationsradially outward(offset)fr
3、om a known static,steady-state,orimpulse load.Deflections are measured with sensors thatmonitor the vertical movement of a pavement surface due tothe load.This guide describes procedures for the deflectionmeasurement using various deflection testing devices andprovides the general information that s
