Goals of Pavement Evaluation
Quantify pavement conditions and uniformity/variability
Identify causes of distresses
Estimate remaining pavement life
Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) feasible rehab alternatives
Should only collect data that will be used for decision making!
![Page 4: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Components of Pavement Investigation
Surface conditions Evaluation of visible distresses Evaluation of other features (roughness, skid resistance)
Subsurface conditions Pavement composition & thickness Condition of pavement layers Soil types and strength
![Page 5: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Surface Condition Survey (Windshield Survey)
Overall subjective assessment
Segments of variable condition may not be apparent
![Page 6: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Surface Condition Survey (Detailed Distress Mapping)
Most useful when detailing specific “spot repairs” Eg- Concrete pavement restoration Dowel bar retrofits, full depth patches, etc
Can be “information overload” How will you make rehab decisions from the distress map?
![Page 7: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
7
Surface Condition Survey Pavement Condition Index (PCI) Approach
Intermediate between 2 extremes
Useful in identifying segments of variable condition Developing more than rehab treatment
![Page 8: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
8
Condition Survey (PCI Approach)
Project divided into sections (segments) Consider pavement history Typically uniform segment lengths
Type, quantity & severity of distresses measured (or estimated) Can be used for repair quantities
Calculation of overall condition index can be useful Helps identify variability between segments
![Page 9: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Options for PCI- Type Surveys
Foot on ground (FOG)survey
Semi-automated -Digital Survey Vehicle (DSV) Automated collection of high resolution downward facing pavement images Manual distress rating in office

Digital Survey Vehicle
Data Collected – Digital Video Pavement
Images – Multiple Digital Video
Right-of-Way Images – Longitudinal
Profile/Roughness – Rutting – Faulting – Cross-slope & Grade – Macro-Texture – Linear Distance – GPS Coordinates

Comparison of Condition Survey Methods
DSV vs FOG Methods
Similar end result
DSV faster & safer for field data collection
DSV typically more accurate (unless physical measurements made with FOG)
DSV provides geo-referenced images for other uses
DSV provides roughness, rutting, faulting & cross-slope measurements
FOG costs less for small projects with low traffic volume
![Page 14: Goals of Presentation · Identify causes of distresses Estimate remaining pavement life Provide parameters needed to identify (and design) ... DSV typically more accurate (unless](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022071212/602487d06afedf230a360d5b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Comparison of Condition Surveys (I-95 & I-81)
Not all projects require same level of detail
PCI very useful for I-95 in identifying segments of similar condition
PCI would not have been useful for I-81
Not necessary to quantify all distresses for I-81
Windshield survey would have had signficant limitations for I-95 or I-81 (more quantitative data helped decision making)

• Evaluate variability of overall pavement strength
• Determine “strategic” core & boring locations
• Determine subgrade soil strength
• Structural adequacy & remaining life
• Provides parameters for overlay design
• Void location (concrete pavements)
• Joint load transfer (concrete pavements)
