Nondestructive deflection testing (NDT) devices have become integral tools in the evaluation and analysis of pavement facilities. Historically, the data produced by deflection devices have been stored in output files with the type, extent, and organization of collected data being left to the discretion of the individual equipment manufacturers. This document describes a device-independent universal pavement deflection data exchange (PDDX) specification that utilizes the data management concept of section blocks, similar to the software initialization file format used by many computer operating systems. The use of section blocks has proven to be an efficient and flexible method in the management of data and can be applied successfully to pavement deflection testing technology.

"The 2009 AASHTO Transportation Glossary is an update and revision of the 1983 Transportation Glossary and the 1998 Transportation Glossary, which was unpublished. The largest additions in terminology were in bridge and drainage subjects. The new Glossary also includes lists of organizational acronyms, abbreviations, and other glossary references. Terms and definitions in this glossary were taken from an unpublished 1998 AASHTO Glossary and supplemented with definitions listed in AASHTO publications issued after 1998. Several additional sources were also referenced, including the Highway Capacity Manual, Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Code of Federal Regulations-Title 23, an FHWA list of roundabout terminology, and the Transportation Research Thesaurus. Glossary terms are listed in alphabetical order regardless of transportation mode. However, the glossary also includes two indexes-subject area and keyword-which provide cross references for the user."--AASHTO Bookstore website (viewed June 24, 2.
