Question
An agency uses the following formula to determine pavement condition rating,
PCR = 99.3 − 5.51 (5.0-ROUGH) − 1.59 LNALL − 0.221 AVGOUT − 0.0306 LONG − 0.531 TRAN,
where we have the following.
ROUGH = roughness measured by present serviceability rating (PSR), scale of 0 to 5 LNALL = natural logarithm of alligator cracking, ft per mile AVGOUT = outer wheel path rutting (all locations averaged), 0.01 inch LONG = longitudinal cracking, ft per mile TRAN = transverse cracking, number of cracks per mile
And, present serviceability rating is determined as the following.
PSR = 5e−0.0051118 · IRI − 0.0016027
A pavement section has the following distress data.
IRI = 108 in./mi Alligator cracking = 110 ft/mi Average rutting = 0.20 in. Longitudinal cracks = 130 ft/mi Transverse cracks = 12/mi
Determine the current PCR for this section.
PCR =
Now, assume a new roughness measurement is expected soon. When PCR falls below 60, the section will be scheduled for rehabilitation. Determine the new IRI value (in in./mi) that will trigger the rehabilitation.
