Table Descriptions

• DynamicData - Contains dynamic sensor responses, including peak values and full dynamic records.
• Gear - Contains information about the configured loads, including number of tires per carriage, applied tire loads (nominal), and tire spacing (dual and tandem)
• MUX - Contains information about the static sensors, including sensor type and location. (MUX refers to the multiplexer units, which acquire the static sensor data.)
• SPU - Contains information about the dynamic sensors, including sensor type and location. (SPU refers to the 6 signal processing units, which acquire the dynamic sensor data.)
• StaticData - Contains static sensor responses, including hourly temperature and moisture readings.
• Test Items - Returns the TestItem table, which contains engineering data about the CC4 pavement test items (layer materials and thicknesses)
• Track - Identifies the north and south carriage positions corresponding to the 9 wander tracks.
• Traffic - Contains information about the vehicle passes, including start and end times for each load event, gear configuration, applied loads (actual), and wander position.
• Wander - Lists the track numbers and carriage positions corresponding to each sequence number in the wander pattern.
