Falling Weight

The main objective of the forensic study was to identify the cause(s) of the pavement failure on a temporary detour of an interstate highway in Austin, Texas. Ground penetrating radar (GPR), falling weight deflectometer (FWD), coring, trenching, and comprehensive laboratory tests were performed. It was found that the main cause of the premature failure was attributed to material and construction practices. The base material used on this project did not meet the Triaxial class 1 requirement; it tested as a class 2.3 material. The base material was found to be highly moisture susceptible; it did not meet the Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT's) compressive strength requirements when subjected to capillary soaking. In addition, the repetitive triaxial test results revealed that the stiffness and load-carrying capability and resistance to permanent deformation became inadequate when the base material was exposed to moisture. It is believed that moisture entered this pavement primarily through poorly compacted AC layers and longitudinal joints. Cores taken in March 2004 from the original type B and C layers confirmed that the majority of cores have air voids exceeding 9%. The lower type B layer was also badly segregated and debonded from the upper type C layer at some locations. GPR results also indicated that the joints in the pavement were excessively porous. Further tests on the recovered binder for the type B layer indicated that the binder was prematurely aged, most probably from overheating during production.Key words: pavement failure, forensic, ground penetrating radar (GPR), falling weight deflectometer (FWD), laboratory testing.

Ideal Dielectric

Within the ground penetrating radar bandwidth the medium is considered to be an ideal dielectric, which is not always true. Electromagnetic waves reflection coefficient conductivity dependence showed a significant role of the difference in conductivity in reflection strength. It was confirmed by physical modeling. Conductivity of geological media should be taken into account when solving direct and inverse problems, survey design planning, etc. Ground penetrating radar can be used to solve the problem of mapping of halocline or determine water contamination.

Ground Penetrating

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) adalah salah satu jenis radar yang digunakan untuk menyelidiki kondisi di bawah permukaan tanah tanpa harus menggali dan merusak tanah. Sistem GPR terdiri atas pengirim (transmitter), yaitu antena yang terhubung ke generator sinyal dan bagian penerima (receiver), yaitu antena yang terhubung ke LNA dan ADC yang kemudian terhubung ke unit pengolahan data hasil survey serta display sebagai tampilan output-nya dan post  processing untuk alat bantu mendapatkan informasi mengenai suatu objek. GPR bekerja dengan cara memancarkan gelombang elektromagnetik ke dalam tanah dan menerima sinyal yang dipantulkan oleh objek-objek di bawah permukaan tanah. Sinyal yang diterima kemudian diolah pada bagian signal processing dengan tujuan untuk menghasilkan gambaran kondisi di bawah permukaan tanah yang dapat dengan mudah dibaca dan diinterpretasikan oleh user. Signal processing sendiri terdiri dari beberapa tahap yaitu A-Scan yang meliputi perbaikan sinyal dan pendektesian objek satu dimensi, B-Scan untuk pemrosesan data dua dimensi  dan C-Scan untuk pemrosesan data tiga dimensi. Metode yang digunakan pada pemrosesan B-Scan salah satunya adalah dengan  teknik pemrosesan citra. Dengan pemrosesan citra, data survey B-scan diolah untuk didapatkan informasi mengenai objek. Pada penelitian ini, diterapkan teori gradien garis pada pemrosesan citra B-scan untuk menentukan bentuk dua dimensi dari objek bawah tanah yaitu persegi, segitiga atau lingkaran.
