This article briefly presents the Pavement Technology Project (PTP) in Thailand, which is a three-year research project begun in 1999 and undertaken jointly by the Department of Highways (DOH) and the Danish Road Directorate (DRD). The project has the overall objective of reducing the maintenance costs on the Thai national road network by implementing Falling Weight Deflectometer technology and developing and implementing analytical pavement analysis and design methods in Thailand, based on pavement performance and determination of the structural properties of the road pavement materials in existing road pavements and in laboratory investigations.
