Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As pavement condition raises more and more concerns in the highway system across the United States, a new challenge emerges in developing reliable pavement deterioration prediction models that are easily applicable by highway pavement management system in state departments of transportation and other agencies. Transportation agencies typically employ a process to evaluate pavement performance on a regular basis and identifying sections with a need for maintenance or rehabilitation. Some states in the U.S. utilize an index based on ride quality alone, while others utilize a pavement rating system that is based solely on visible surface distresses in order to regularly perform evaluation of pavements. This thesis looks at the differences among the combinations of pavement types and priority systems and what effects they have on pavement roughness within the Ohio state highway system when compared with annual snowfall, quantified by the International Roughness Index (IRI). Simple correlation studies between one of Ohio’s pavement condition indices, the Pavement Condition Rating (PCR), and RIRI were conducted in attempt to find a meaningful relationship. When little to no correlations were found, this thesis then separated the highways based on pavement type, priority system, and annual snowfall region to develop an annual average IRI increase trend for each combination. Statistical testing were performed to ensure results were generated with a 90% confidence level. Slope regression and frequency prediction methods were used in three cases of annual snowfall to analyze the snowfall-RIRI relationship: one was split into four snowfall regions, and the other two were by different amount of snowfall thresholds—30 and 40 inches per year. Results from both methods confirmed that there exists a direct, positive correlation between the amount of annual snowfall and the increase of International Roughness Index per year in nearly all combinations of pavement-priority highways in Ohio.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Report S2-R26-RR-1: Preservation Approaches for High-Traffic-Volume Roadways documents the state of the practice of preservation treatment on asphalt and concrete pavements on high- and low-volume roadways. The report also includes general guidelines on the application of preservation treatments on high-volume roadways. The same project that produced SHRP 2 Report S2-R26-RR-1 also produced SHRP 2 Report S2-R26-RR-2: Guidelines for the Preservation of High-Traffic-Volume Roadways, which explores the state of the practice for preservation treatments on high- and low-volume asphalt and concrete roadways. The report also includes suggested guidelines on the application of preservation treatments on high-volume roadways.
