This paper determines the interaction between the physical indicators of frost blanket course and its deflection modulus, measured by static and dynamic devices. The Pilot Road has been selected to examine the strength properties (deflection module) of frost blanket course. A Pilot Road consisting of 27 road sections, divided into 5 different road structures. A Pilot Road has been selected to examine the strength properties (deflection module) of frost blanket course. In this research was determined the strength of frost blanket course in road pavement structures of Pilot Road by four devices: Falling Weight Deflectometer Dynatest 8000, Light Weight Deflectometers Prima 100 and ZORN ZSG 02 and Static Beam Strassentest. The results showed no reliable correlation between the deflection modulus, measured by different devices, and the physical indicators of the frost blanket course of the road pavement structures in Pilot Road.
