Pavement condition assessment is a critical step in road pavement management. In contrast to the automatic and objective methods used for rural roads, most commonly method urban areas development of visual surveys usually filled out by technicians, which leads subjective assessment. Whereas previous studies on identification distresses focused crack detection, this research aims not only cover ...

An entire roadway system represents a crucial element in the sustainable urban transportation planning process. Pavement surfaces are at continual risk of accumulating serious deteriorations and defects throughout their service life due to traffic loading environmental impact. Since networks growing rapidly, relying on visual pavement inspection is not always feasible. Therefore, this paper pro...

15. Supplementary Notes Project performed in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. 16. Abstract TxDOT initiated the rigid pavement database project to collect information on the general performance of portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement as well as to collect project-level information on PCC pavement responses and performance. A total...

• Road-pavement surface monitoring, distresses classification and measurement. Comparison of crowdsensing-based monitoring technologies visual inspections. Efficiency effectiveness road-pavement surveys for optimal maintenance. Pavement-surface characteristics should be considered during road maintenance safe comfortable driving. A detailed up-to-date report network conditions is required to op...

Abstract One of the most prevalent challenges faced in road construction is pavement distresses produced by ageing asphalt pavement, which resulted fatigue cracking. Fatigue cracking regarded as one primary failure types when tension bituminous layer low due to high vehicle traffic load repetition. The study focuses on evaluating performance coconut fiber modifier bitumen penetration grade 60/7...

The new AASHTO Mechanistic–Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) provides pavement analysis and performance predictions for various feasible design scenarios. The MEPDG performance predictions for the anticipated climatic and traffic conditions depends on the values of the input parameters that characterize the pavement materials, layers, design features, and condition. This paper focuses on ...

The current project, funded by MIOH-UTC for the period 1/1/20094/30/2010, is concerned with the development of the framework for a transportation facility inspection system using advanced image processing techniques. The focus of this study is on the technical details of investigating and utilizing state-of-the-art image analysis techniques to further advance research in image processing based ...

In-service pavement requires maintenance, it may be routine in nature, or major reconstruction. A is designed for an assumed period, after the expiry of design likely to fail structurally and therefore, would require a renewal extend life further. Even within service pavement, top wearing course subjected considerable distress due movement vehicles on it. Thus needs some Maintenance smooth move...
