1. Introduction

Improving the efficiency of cellular communication systems depends heavily on a sound treatment of pavement rutting behaviour. The parameters of the model are estimated through nonlinear pushover analysis and verified against measured values. The model explains more than 32% of the variation in the measured data. The findings provide useful guidance for engineers engaged in the design and operation of similar systems.
