• Abstract:
  Iowa has three classes of public roads: state primary highways, county (secondary) roads, and city streets. Among these, Iowa county roads serve rural Iowa transport needs by assuring a public road connection (i.e., to local access roads) for serving as conduits that channel the flow of people and commodities to and from towns and terminals (i.e., farm-to-market roads). Many Iowa county pavement systems are multilayered structures that have experienced multiple cycles of construction and renewal that make it more complex to estimate pavement structures’ current structural capacities.
