Postmortem Investigation of the Kansas Test Track, Volume II

The Kansas Test Track (KTT) was comprised of nine different track systems, which were founded on a designed embankment. The KTT subgrade experienced premature failure in-service, and KTT operations were terminated in June 1975 after approximately six months of traffic. A postmortem investigation of...

Mechanical Impedance Evaluations of the Kansas Test Track: Pretraffic and Posttraffic Tests

The Kansas Test Track (KTT) was comprised of nine different track systems whose dynamic response was measured in two series of impedance tests. Pretraffic impedance testing was done in 1973, before the KTT was opened to traffic, and a second (posttraffic) test series was carried out in 1975...
