DEVELOPMENT OF A METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING RESURFACING PRIORITIES FOR THE PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN INDIANA: VOL I-EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This document idd the executive summary of the research conducted by the Joint Highway Research Project of Purdue University in cooperation with the Indiana Department of Highways on the development of a method for establishing resurfacing priorities for the pavement management system in Indiana. The first part of the project included a review of the pavement management concepts including a description ofexisting pavement management practices. In the second part, the performance factors related to pavement deterioration were identified, and the methology used for developing equivalent performance indices (EPI) for each performance factor was defined. The third part involved the details pertaining to the two pavement condition surveys conducted. The fourth part included the development of a methodlogy for constructing a performance function model. The fifth part of the project involved the development and application of two optimization models for the Indiana interstate highway network. (Author)
