Prediction of Asphalt Pavement International Roughness Index (IRI) by Combined Approach of Empirical Regression and Markov

The most commonly used approach to predict pavement performance is regression equation based on field data. But there is a large gap between the predicted and actual values. Markov approach can be used to predict this gap and make regression values closer to measured values. Based on the field international roughness index (IRI) data obtained from test sections TXLF210016 located at 281# highway in U.S. from 1997-2005, this paper uses a combined approach by empirical regression and Markov to predict the IRI data from 2005 to 2011. The principal and prediction process was described in detail. Prediction results are very good, providing a new approach to prediction of similar pavement performance.
