Staufen
At the Staufen, Schafisheimerstrasse site, a SDA 4-12 surface course was laid in 2015. Since then, 8 CPX measurements have been carried out in 2015–2025.

Location
The measured section on the national map, coloured by the ΔStL-86+ (MV8) of the selected measurement year. At the top right you can change the year and the base map; where cores were taken, the sampling points are marked.
Acoustics
The slider selects the pavement age. At the top, the point moves along the ageing curve; at the bottom, the third-octave spectra for cars and heavy vehicles change. The grey lines in the background are the other measurement years.
