Pavement Evaluation

Ensuring safer, longer-lasting roads through advanced pavement evaluation and testing, combining expertise with innovation for the highest quality standards.

Our Approach to Pavement Evaluation

Roadcare (M) Sdn. Bhd., in collaboration with IKRAM Paves Sdn. Bhd., delivers advanced pavement evaluation services designed to meet the highest standards of quality and safety. By combining Roadcare’s experience in road maintenance with IKRAM’s specialized testing capabilities, we provide comprehensive assessments that identify pavement conditions, durability, and performance. This partnership enables us to deliver reliable insights that guide better decision-making, ensure long-term efficiency, and support sustainable infrastructure development.
  • State-of-the-art vehicle-mounted system
  • Assesses pavement conditions with high precision
  • Captures detailed data on road surface distresses, texture, and roughness
  • Monitors changes over time to ensure roads remain in optimal condition
  • During this test, a calibrated load is dropped onto the pavement surface, and the deflections resulting from the impact are measured.
  • This provides valuable information about the pavement’s structural integrity and load-bearing capacity.
  • The FWD test helps in diagnosing potential weaknesses and guiding repair or reinforcement efforts.
  • By digging into the pavement, engineers can inspect the underlying layers and materials.
  • This examination allows for an accurate assessment of material quality and pavement structure, which is essential for planning effective recycling or rehabilitation measures.
  • Coring involves extracting cylindrical samples from the pavement at various locations.
  • These core samples are then analysed in a laboratory to determine material properties, layer thickness, and overall quality.
  • Coring provides a detailed understanding of the pavement’s structural composition, which is crucial for evaluating its performance and durability.
  • Clegg’s Hammer is employed to measure the in-situ stiffness of the pavement.
  • This device works by dropping a hammer onto the pavement and measuring its rebound.
  • The results provide an estimate of the pavement’s elastic modulus, which indicates its strength and resilience.
  • This test is useful for evaluating the quality of road construction and ongoing maintenance.
  • Measures the density of pavement or soil materials in the field
  • Involves comparing the in-situ density to laboratory-tested samples
  • Ensures that materials meet specified compaction requirements
  • Identifies variations in density that could affect pavement performance and durability
  • This test evaluates the strength and load-bearing capacity of unbound granular materials in the pavement.
  • It involves driving a cone into the material with a hammer and measuring the penetration rate.
  • This provides insights into the material’s compaction and bearing capacity, which is critical for the design and quality control of road construction.
