Rut depth measurements for D6.4

Rut depth measurements were made with a profilometer equipped with a laser sensor. The transversal profile of the pavement was measured on a width of about 1.4 m. The maximum rut depth value was then determined. Three measurements were performed on each section at the beginning of the test and then at 10 000, 20 000, 50 000, 100 000, 150 000, 200 000, 500 000, 750 000, 1 000 000 and 1 050 000 loads. From these measurements, average rut depths were determined for each section and each number of cycles. By dividing this average rut depth by the real layer thickness, the rutting percentage for each structure was determined as well as its evolution according to the number of cycles.In the deliverable 6.4: Nantes full-scale testing report (https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/860441/results): figures 34, 35, 47 and 48
