Pavement Performance Monitoring System. Volume 1. Development

Abstract

This study addresses the development approach and capabilities of a Pavement Performance Monitoring System(PPMS). The PPMS is a management tool to provide guidance towards future R&D efforts, establish R&D priorities, analyze pavement performance, identify potential causal factors, and develop statistics of airport pavements performance. The PPMS is developed in the micro-computer environment (IBM compatible) using PC/FOCUS as the DBMS. Different report output formats and their applicability are described in this report. An automated database of airport pavements performance indicators, materials specifications, design methods, traffic loadings, and environmental conditions was developed based on limited data collected during this study for selected pavements. The problems of data availability, data accuracy, and amount of data required to evaluate the effectiveness of FAA design guidelines and construction specifications are highlighted.
