Your partner in FWD, HWD and GPR pavement testing
Non-Destructive Pavement Testing
QRoad is your specialist partner for non-destructive pavement testing of roads, airport pavements, container terminal pavements, dikes and industrial facilities. Using Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD), Heavy Weight Deflectometer (HWD), Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD) technology, we provide reliable insight into pavement bearing capacity, layer thickness and structural condition.
Our measurements support pavement consultants, road authorities, airport operators and asset owners with the data needed for maintenance planning, rehabilitation design, Pavement Classification Rating (PCR) assessments and cost-effective pavement management. Reliable pavement testing is an essential step towards well-founded advice and long-term savings.
Our services
Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD)
FWD testing measures the bearing capacity of road pavements by simulating the wheel load of a passing heavy goods vehicle. The results provide valuable insight into pavement strength, structural condition and maintenance needs.
Heavy Weight Deflectometer (HWD)
HWD testing measures the bearing capacity of airport pavements by simulating the wheel load of heavy aircraft. The results provide essential insight for PCR assessments, rehabilitation design and airport pavement management
Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD)
LWD testing measures the bearing capacity and stiffness of sand, granular materials and thin asphalt layers. This portable method provides quick on-site results for compaction control, quality checks and pavement construction assessments.
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
GPR testing measures asphalt and concrete pavement layer thicknesses and detects subsurface anomalies such as voids, delamination and settlement. This non-destructive method provides continuous insight into pavement structure, layer thickness and thickness variations.
