Executive Summary

 The evalution and overlay thickness design of airport asphalt pavements were investigated, making use of Dynaflect, which had been eveloped as one dkind of nondestructive testing devices for pavements.
 As a result, they became clear that the Dynaflect deflections were good indicators of structural adequacy of flexible pavements and that overlay thickness could be designed accurately using elastic layer theory.
