Abstract

Summary

This paper presents the ongoing research as part of a master thesis on the analytic handling of GPR data for the quick assessment of road surface layer thickness. Equations were developed and then validated with test data. It was verified that the method is valid for layer thickness determination as the errors obtained are well within an acceptable threshold when comparing to the real thickness obtained from core drills.
