The report describes the development and application of equipment and techniques for measuring simultaneously the dynamic loads applied to a pavement by a moving vehicle and the dynamic stresses and displacements induced by that load in a flexible pavement and its subgrade. Results are presented which indicate that dynamic effects of load on pavement response were unimportant in the case of the vehicle and pavements in this study. Predicted values of stress and displacement were obtained for particular values of load and vehicle position as a function of vehicle velocity. The ratios of average vertical stress to average vertical strain in the base course and in the subgrade were computed from predicted values of stress and displacement and the variation of these ratios with vehicle velocity is demonstrated.
