Dynatest LWD Software Suite – Field Collection and Pavement Analysis

The Dynatest LWD software ecosystem includes the LWD App for mobile field data collection, LWDmod for advanced PC layer analysis, and LWD Connect for integrated data transfer.

Streamline your Light Weight Deflectometer workflows from field data collection to PC analysis

The Dynatest LWD Suite connects field operations with advanced engineering analysis for the Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD). By uniting mobile data collection, seamless PC transfer, and powerful backcalculation software, the platform ensures complete data consistency and optimized workflows across teams. 

Out in the field, the LWD App organizes drop measurements and attachment images directly on iOS and Android devices. For in-depth office analysis, LWDmod delivers advanced reporting, determining two-layer moduli to identify structural weaknesses. Everything is bound together by LWD Connect, allowing easy remote control and instant project downloads directly to your PC. 

The LWD Software Components: 

  • LWD App (Field Collection): A free mobile app for smartphones and tablets to capture, view, and store raw deflection data and structural projects on-site. 
  • LWDmod (PC Analysis & Reporting): Advanced pavement analysis software that backcalculates layer moduli  and properties and generates engineering reports (one PC license is included with each Dynatest LWD). 
  • LWD Connect (Seamless Integration): Remotely control the data collected from the LWD APP on a PC, enabling fast data downloads and smooth export directly into your reporting workflows via DynaHub.

 

You would use this ecosystem to: 

  • Collect data on the move: Utilize mobile devices in the field to manage LWD drop measurements, organize project database, and attach site photos. 
  • Identify weak pavement layers: Backcalculate subgrade and base layer stiffness on your PC using LWDmod’s mechanistic analysis to plan targeted repairs. 
  • Bridge field and office: Use LWD Connect to securely transfer measurement files from field operators to office engineers, eliminating manual data entry and speeding up analysis

Download your LWD App - free of charge!

  • The LWD App is a data collection application for the Dynatest Light Weight Deflectometer 3032 
  • The LWD App organizes collected data into projects, which separate data into different database files.
  • The LWD App only works on one project at a time. Each project has several data collection sessions which organize the locations where measurements are taken.
  • Images can also be attached to locations and each location can have multiple drop measurements, which store both calculated and raw data.
  • The LWD App is available for iPhones, iPads, and Android devices and is free of charge.

The latest version is live in App Store and Google Play. Learn more about the LWD App Privacy Policy

Using the LWD App is very simple. You’ll find the instructions below.

LWDmod - View and Manage Your Test Data at Any Point!

The Dynatest software LWDmod offers advanced features for data organization, analysis, and reporting.

The Dynatest LWDmod software comes free of charge when you purchase a Dynatest LWD.

Experience first-hand why LWDmod is the ideal software tool for pavement analysis.

The LWDmod determines the moduli of two layers allowing for the identification of the weak layer and giving the engineer the information required to assess and evaluate potential solutions.
