EARLY ANALYSES OF LONG-TERM PAVEMENT PERFORMANCE GENERAL PAVEMENT STUDIES DATA: LESSONS LEARNED AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE ANALYSES
The purpose of this report is to share the experience gained and lessons learned by research staff during early data analyses of the General Pavement Studies (GPS) and to recommend procedures for future analysts. A review of the techniques used is provided. Shortcomings of the Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) Data Base, known at the time of early analyses, are discussed and data base expectations for future analyses were identified. Some interesting and useful distress and roughness prediction models were developed that illustrate the effects of several design variables. Other analytical procedures for developing predictive equations were identified and described, which may be of use in future analyses. Ten techniques used by the research staff for evaluating the American Association of Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) design equations are identified and recommendations for future evaluations provided.
