Pavement condition evaluation is a significant part of a good pavement management system for effective maintenance, rehabilitation, and reconstruction decision-making. One of the key components of pavement condition evaluation is the quantification of pavement distresses data. Cracking is the main form of early pavement distresses. Cracking of pavement affects road condition, driving comfort, t...

Reliable and durable asphalt surfacing systems still remain to be desired for the long-spanned orthotropic steel bridges as the nationally and internationally reports on distresses in deck pavement. Based on ten-year research works, this paper has presented a brief review and discussion of the Chinese practices and experiences of deck pavement on long-spanned steel bridges, including issues of ...

Suitable evaluation of distress is beneficial to understanding the in situ performance deck pavement. This study attempts evaluate long-term American ChemCo epoxy asphalt concrete on Xihoumen Bridge (XHMB) after 12 years service. The traditional indexes were adopted reveal XHMB. Then, based typical distresses, a new pavement index (PPI) was proposed characterize authentic condition. Finally, an...

Assessment of pavement distresses is one of the important parts of pavement management systems to adopt the most effective road maintenance strategy. In the last decade, extensive studies have been done to develop automated systems for pavement distress processing based on machine vision techniques. One of the most important structural components of computer vision is the feature extraction met...

Early fatigue and rutting are among the most common types of road damage due to their main relationship with pavement performance. These damages occur excessive loads on axles vehicles or improper design mixture in addition traditional methods used paving designs. Therefore, these premature must be avoided for proper performance service road. In order overcome some weaknesses, mechanical-empiri...

A pavement structure consists of several layers for the primary purpose of transmitting and distributing traffic loads to the subgrade. Rutting is one form of pavement distresses that may influence the performance of road pavements. Geosynthetics is one type of synthetic materials utilized for improving the performance of pavements against rutting. Various studies have been conducted on using d...

Purpose The massive number of pavements and buildings coupled with the limited inspection resources, both monetary human, to detect distresses recommend maintenance actions lead rapid deterioration, decreased service life, lower level increased community disruption. Therefore, this paper aims at providing a state-of-the-art review literature respect deep learning techniques for detecting distre...
