INDEX Pavement Design and Performance Technology Identifying Your Stress DP-108 Pavement Management Analysis |
|
The Pavement Design and Performance (PDP) group focuses on those technologies necessary to
identify and evaluate pavement distress. This information, combined with pavement
performance data obtained from field testing, constitutes the basis for pavement management
systems. Similarly, life cycle cost analysis forms a basis in the decision-making process by
evaluating the cost of a project for its design life. These concepts are important elements of the
PDP group. Implementation of products produced under the Long Term Pavement Performance
(LTPP) program is the final element of this technology group. Included is the implementation of
resilient modulus test procedures, the FWD quality assurance software and the LTPP database
extraction computer program.
