Investigation of Weigh-in-Motion Measurement Accuracy on the Basis of Steering Axle Load Spectra
PublicationWeigh-in-motion systems are installed in pavements or on bridges to identify and reduce the number of overloaded vehicles and minimise their adverse eect on road infrastructure. Moreover, the collected trac data are used to obtain axle load characteristics, which are very useful in road infrastructure design. Practical application of data from weigh-in-motion has become more common recently, which calls for adequate attention to...

Temperature Effects on Weigh-in-Motion Accuracy Using Steering Axle Load Spectrum
PublicationWeigh-in-motion systems (WIM) serve as valuable sources of traffic load data. The determination of axle load spectra using WIM data is pivotal for calculating load equivalency factors and predicting pavement distresses through M-EPDG. Among various factors affecting WIM accuracy, temperature changes stand out as particularly influential. This paper examines the influence of temperature on WIM-collected data, utilizing the steering...

Impact of accuracy of weigh-in-motion data for pavement analysis and design: influence of temperature variations
PublicationThis paper investigates the effect of temperature on WIM-collected data using the steering axle load spectrum (SALS) and two datasets. The first dataset, provided by the WIM system operator, contains detailed raw data, while the second, supplied by the road authority, includes less detailed information but covers 46 stations with various sensor types and configurations: single-line bending plates and two-line quartz piezoelectric...
