Prediction the performance of pavement provides proper information to an agency on decision-making process; especially evaluating the pavement performance and prioritizing the work plan. To date, there are a number of approaches to predict the future deterioration of pavements. However, there are some limitation to proper prediction of the pavement service life. In this paper, pavement performance model and pavement condition prediction model are developed in order to improve pavement condition prediction method. The prediction model of pavement condition through the regression analysis of real pavement condition is based on the probability distribution of pavement condition, which set to 5%, 15%, 25% and 50%, by condition of the pavement and traffic volume. The pavement prediction model presented from the behavior of individual pavement condition which are set to 5%, 15%, 25% and 50% of probability distribution. The performance of the prediction model is evaluated from analyzing the average, standard deviation of HPCI, and the percentage of HPCI which is lower than 3.0 of comparable section. In this paper, we will suggest the more rational method to determine the future pavement conditions, including the probabilistic duration and deterministic modeling methods regarding the impact of traffic volume, age, and the type of the pavement.

Pavement evaluation is a fundamental component for rational pavement management. Optimal rehabilitation method and the priority of rehabilitation should be based on the evaluation data. Some types of pavement condition index are needed for objective evaluation of Pavement condition and management of road network. In this study a expressway concrete pavement condition index model is developed through regression analysis that correlates panel rating with distress measurement from the test sections. The derived condition index can be used for network level PMS for the expressway concrete pavement. Correlation coefficient of the model was 0.68. The selected independent variables were International Roughness Index, crack and area of patching.

In Korea, Expressway and National Highway System has been continually managed by their own pavement management system. The pavement condition evaluation system has not been developed for the municipal roads except for Seoul city. Therefore, this study focuses on analyzing the characteristics of distress in major city's pavement and developing the pavement condition index for the municipal PMS. Panel rating and pavement condition survey for the selected pavement sections were conducted for developing pavement condition index. Municipal level pavement condition index(MPCI) was developed by statistical analysis. Also, a sensitivity analysis for each independent variable of the MPCI and comparison with other pavement condition indicies, such as SPI and HPCI, were performed.

The purpose of this study is to propose the evaluation criteria of asphalt pavement condition in narrow regional road considering the traffic environment in order to reduce road budget of local governments. In general, narrow regional roads are considered relatively less important because they have low travel speed and low traffic volume of heavy-vehicle. Generally, automatic surveying equipment is used for investigations of pavement condition, but the operating costs are not efficient for the narrow regional roads because the cost is too high. This study presents the pavement condition evaluation index suitable for narrow regional roads. In this study, the pavement condition evaluation index is presented considering the traffic environment of narrow regional roads. The pavement condition were classified into three classes based on the crack measured by visual inspection, and the validity of the pavement condition evaluation index presented through the expert's questionnaire survey was examined. Pavement condition for the narrow regional roads was classified into three grades based on the index values calculated by visual inspection. Expert's surveys were conducted to evaluate the validity of the proposed pavement condition evaluation. The proposed evaluation index shows a high correlation with questionnaire survey result ($R^2=0.88$). The proposed evaluation index which is obtained through visual crack inspection under limited conditions can be applied to narrow regional roads. In addition, it is expected that it will be effective not only for road management but also for road management budget by more economical evaluation method of pavement condition.

The objective of this paper is to support accurate pavement condition assessment and decision of proper maintenance method and time by conducting visual inspection and calculating the remaining life of pavement from falling weight deflectometer(FWD) data. Each was implemented in the same long-term performance pavement(LTPP) sections. Visual inspection was executed to measure pavement condition indices such as crack, rutting and international roughness index(IRI) and the Seoul Pavement Index(SPI) was calculated based on these results. The dynamic modulus was back-calculated from the FWD data. The remaining pavement lives were determined from equivalent single axle loading(ESAL) and FWD data. Correlation of maintenance priority by each result value was examined. Consequently, the correlation between remaining life to Crack and Rutting was higher than the other factors or indicesbecause IRI is not related to FWD value and SPI value consists with IRI value and other indices. The R-square value of correlation of FWD with Crack and Rutting was 0.65, which indicated an insufficient correlation. Consequently, when decision of maintenance of method, time, etc. is determined, FWD data have to be considered with Crack and Rutting because of those relations.

포장도로는 신설된 후 계속적인 차량의 통행과 기후 조건의 변화등으로 시 간이 경과함에 따라서 그 상태가 저하된다. 따라서 포장도로는 일정기간이 지난 후에는 쾌적한 차량의 통행을 보장하기 위하여 유지보수를 실시하여야 한다. 이러한 유지보수를 효율적이고 과학적으로 수행하는 것은 대단히 중요 하다. 미국과 같은 선진국의 경우 도로 신설의 투자비 보다 유지보수에 사용 되는 예산이 더 많아지고 있는데 효율적인 유지관리 시스템의 개발로 투자 비를 적정화하고자 하는 노력이 크게 증가되고 있다. 도로 포장 구조체가 도 로 이용자에게 어느 정도의 안전성, 쾌적성 및 신속성을 제공하고 있는가를 평가하는 것은 포장관리의 중요한 고려사항이며 그 결과는 포장의 공용성 개념으로 표현된다. 포장상태 조사시 포함되는 항목들은 포장유지관리 시스 템을 운용하는 기관마다 약간씩 차이는 있으나 대체로 노면조도, 노면장애, 구조적 능력, 미끄럼저항등이다. 이중 진동계측장비가 많이 사용되는 항목은 노면조도와 구조적 능력평가 부분으로서 이 두 항목에 포함되는 진동 계측 장비와 그 이용방법에 관해서 논하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 아스팔트 포장과 콘크리트 포장의 습윤시 교통사고 가능성을 비교하 였다. 다양한 노후도를 가진 두 포장재료에 대해 마찰력 측정장비(BPT, Britsh Pendulum Tester)로 건조 및 습윤상태에서 노면마찰력을 측정하였으며, 측정결과와 두 포장재료에 대 한 실제 교통사고율을 비교하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 노면 습윤 에 따른 마찰력 저하정도는 아스팔트 포장이 콘크리트 포장보다 컸다. (2) 노면 습윤에 따른 실제 교통사고율도 아스팔트 포장에서 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타나 (1)의 결론과 일관된 결과를 보여주었다. (3) 노면마찰력은 건조상태에서는 노면마모 정도에 크게 영향을 받지 않으나 일 단 습윤상태가 되면 노면마모가 심할수록 마찰력 저하폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this paper is to establish an evaluation criteria for pavement condition in bicycle road. The suggested criteria would help in the activation policy of bicycle use. The conventional evaluation criteria is difficult to be applied for the bicycle road since the bicycle road is sensitive to changes in the driving environments such as obstacles and bumps. This study presents the evaluation criteria that is suitable for bicycle road. The criteria was suggested in 5 grades through the impact acceleration range of RMSI (Road Monitoring System using ICT). The grades of the criteria are divided into a range of grade A to E. The grade A is a very good condition, while the grade E is a state that requires immediate maintenance. This study were confirmed the validity through the survey of user's satisfaction. According to the results of survey, the grade A was shown correlation of 91%. The grade E requiring immediate repair was presented correlation of 94%. It showed that the results of surveying the bicycle road users are highly correlated with the suggested criteria for pavement condition. It showed that the criteria are highly correlated with the survey results. Suggested criteria using the RMSI is expected to be effective for maintenance of the bicycle road. In addition, it is expected to ensure the serviceability and safety for the bicycle users.

To perform efficient and safe haulage operations in mines, the condition of unsurfaced roads where dump trucks are moving should be regularly investigated, and systematic maintenance should be carried out according to the results. In this study, we developed a smartphone application that can be used to periodically investigate the unsurfaced road conditions in mines. Using the developed application, necessary data can be easily collected on site to evaluate the condition of unsurfaced roads according to the Unsurfaced Road Condition Index (URCI) evaluation system presented by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The smartphone application was tested at several sections of unsurfaced road in the Ilkwang mine, Busan, Korea. The results showed that the field investigation about 7 factors considered in the URCI evaluation system can be conducted through the user interface screen, and the URCI value can be calculated in the field to evaluate the condition of unsurfaced road. The smartphone application developed in this study can be useful for surveying and evaluating the unsurfaced road conditions at the mine site.
