This chapter detailed the installation procedures used to instrument test sections
N1 through N8 at the test track. Generally speaking, the final installation procedures
used at the track were viewed as successful, though a key modification of adding cable
ties to the asphalt strain gauges seemed to improve the survivability rate of these devices.
In the future, as data are gathered from these gauges, a better assessment of the
installation procedures can be made. Additionally, there may be an opportunity to
perform forensic studies on the gauges themselves.
