Abstract:The objective of this seminar was to demonstrate the state of the art in data collection equipment used in measuring pavement roughness and profile. In a workshop environment, information was provided for managers and technicians to meet the following specific objectives: (1) To present the theory of operation of pavement monitoring equipment, and (2) Provide an overview of use and application of data in conjunction with planning, pavement management, and design. The report documenting the program is prepared in three volumes. Volume I, Seminar Overview, presents a general overview of the seminar. Volume II, Data Collection Equipment, provides detailed descriptions of the equipment demonstrated and data collected. Volume III, Workshop Summaries, contains a report on the workshop findings. Each volume is published separately. This volume summarizes the results of the workshop sessions held on the last day of the four-day seminar. The workshops covered subjects on: (1) The needs of the system users in project-level and network-level pavement management and national monitoring programs; (2) Equipment selection and operation, and (3) Data handling and presentation as related to analysis, reporting, specification use and development. Implementation Results from this demonstration provided information to highway agencies in selecting and operating automated data collection equipment or programs in a cost-effective manner. Using information collected during the seminar, a cross reference of pavement profile equipment data is available. This provides a datum for reported information in such publications as HPMS, legislative requests, pavement condition studies, and others.
