Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) is a testing device used to measure the dynamic stiffness of pavements and assess the structural capacity of roads and pavements.
FWD measures pavement deflection caused by a heavy weight dropped onto the surface. Sensors or displacement transducers measure this deflection response to assess the pavement's condition and determine if maintenance or rehabilitation is needed.
