State departments of transportation (DOTs), as part of their routine practice, use various quality assurance (QA) procedures in their acceptance process for highway pavement construction. Absent from this QA process is the use of nondestructive testing (NDT) methods, despite their many potential benefits to the process.

NCHRP Research Report 1082: Incorporating Nondestructive Testing in Quality Assurance of Highway Pavement Construction: Manual, from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, is a manual designed to assist state DOTs in selecting and incorporating applicable NDT methods into their QA programs for highway pavement construction.

Supplemental to the report is NCHRP Web-Only Document 375: Incorporating Nondestructive Testing in Quality Assurance of Highway Pavement Construction: Conduct of Research Report.
