“…The USAF system for determining rigid pavement condition was to count the percentage of slabs in a section without defects and without ''major defects,'' then use a table to assign a condition based on the subgrade stiffness. (10) Major defects were those that affected the structural capacity of the pavement. The USN calculated the defect rating as the number of slabs with a defect divided by the total number of slabs in a pavement feature.…”

“…The PCI appears to have been developed from the USN system by addressing the perceived flaws in the USN system, such as it gave equal weight to structural (fatigue or alligator cracking) and nonstructural (block cracking) pattern cracking defects. Shahin et al believed the structural distresses were more severe and should have had higher weightings than the nonstructural distresses (10).…”

“…Shahin et al calibrated the PCI values against expert pavement engineer ratings of 128 pavement sections at 9 airfields. (10) The PCI was eventually codified as ASTM D5340 (17) and was largely unchanged until addition of new distresses in 2012 (18). It was a composite index, defining 17 distresses for asphalt-surfaced pavements and 16 distresses for PCC pavements, and provided instructions for identifying and measuring each distress type.…”

The Federal Aviation Administration is developing new design procedures for extending airport pavement life beyond 20 years based on the concept of serviceability: the measure of a how well a pavement fulfills user expectations. A key element is a new distress “mega-index” whose elements are intended to represent the independent components of airport pavement serviceability: low foreign object damage potential, low skid potential, and smoothness. This research verifies the assumption that these three components completely describe airport pavement serviceability and proposes an improved probability-based form for the mega-index. The new form has several anticipated advantages including a real-world meaning, the expectation that it can be integrated into a risk management system, and the ability to break down condition into multiple submodels with separate inputs to improve the accuracy of pavement condition predictions.

“…Condition indicators for road management have been developed and calibrated to better represent certain road typologies, with emphasis on paved and unpaved roads. Examples of these include the pavement condition index (PCI) (17), pavement quality index (18), pavement overall index (19), cracking index (20), Standard Practice for Quantifying Cracks in Asphalt Pavement Surface Provisional Protocol PP 44-01 (21), and distress manifestation index for network-level management (22).…”

Rural roads may be defined as low-volume roads that provide access and mobility to rural populations. In developing countries they commonly represent 80% of the total road network length and play a key role in economic and social development. Rural roads are divided into unsealed (gravel and earth) and sealed roads (roads with thin bituminous surfaces and stabilized roads). Network management methods recommend the use of objective condition evaluations, such as the pavement condition index and the unpaved roads condition indicator, to assist in decision making. However, none of these indicators properly apply to sealed rural roads; the performance of these roads is different because of climate and traffic demands. The lack of an objective indicator specially calibrated for sealed rural roads was addressed in this study. The main goal was to calibrate a condition indicator for managing sealed rural road networks. As a result of the study, a condition indicator that was preliminarily developed for double treatment surfaces was successfully validated for thin bituminous surfaces. In addition, a stabilized roads condition index (SRCI) was developed on the basis of field evaluations of various surface distresses observed in stabilized roads, which were contrasted with the evaluations of an expert panel. Two forms of the SRCI were calibrated: with and without roughness. Finally, a qualitative scale ranging from very good condition to very poor condition was defined for thin bituminous surfaces and stabilized roads, on the basis of the effect of three types of climates and roads hierarchy.

Improving Pavement Maintenance Decision Selection for the Minia Road Network in Egypt by Using Paver and Gis Programs

A lot of efforts have focused on eliminating the annual cost lost in random maintenance decisions by applying the Pavement Maintenance Management System (PMMS). The PMMS is a systematic approach for achieving effective management of maintenance decision selection. This study aims to clarify the extent of the difference between PMMS and the traditional aspect of maintenance decision-making. Therefore, a visual inspection survey was conducted for a length of 8.25 km of the Cairo-Aswan Agriculture Highway, Minia City, Egypt. Data was collected from one branch that was divided into two sections, 1 and 2 in right and left directions respectively. A total of 41 samples were surveyed per section, which was stored in a database file using GIS software. The PCI was calculated to determine whether maintenance or rehabilitation (M & R) decisions should be applied in sections one and two. The appropriate M & R for section 1 was "Thin Overlay without Milling," and for section 2 was "Milling and Overlay." These results were different than the decision taken by the responsible authorities, as they decided to do Milling and Overlay for the two sections.
