Abstract:This report describes an evaluation of a method for use in the Highway Needs Study pavement condition rating. The methods by which the Department generates and manages pavement condition data in the overall process of providing a network of highways for the traveling public were reviewed.
Eighteen projects were selected from a three-district area for rating purpose. The projects selected consisted of six rigid (jointed concrete) pavements, six composite pavements and six flexible (asphalt-surfaced) pavements.
The various projects were rated by conducting Mays Ride Meter tests and by subjective evaluation of pavement distress. The evaluation, through visual inspection, included the notation of distress type, severity and extent.
The report relates that the method evaluated is valid, practical, quick and safe for use in an inventory mode.
