This study utilizes the results of full-scale field and
prototype laboratory testing to develop methodology for
the prediction of deterioration and assessment of the
reliability of pavements. Deterministic equations are
developed to predict deterioration in terms of rutting.
The extensive data utilized were accumulated over four
decades of research and represent a wide variety of
pavement types and wheel loads. Ongoing field data
collection programs are supplying additional data that
will provide for deterioration analysis in terms of other
modes, using analysis methods shown to be satisfactory in
this investigation. Reliability assessment models are
developed using the deterministic deterioration equations
as a basis. These models provide for a method of
determining the probability that a pavement will give
support and desired service for a period of time or
number of vehicle operations. The deterioration analysis
and reliability assessment procedures are useful for
maintenance and repair prediction as well as prediction
of future serviceability. The combined procedure provides
a framework for life-cycle management of pavements. This
ability to predict deterioration and assess pavement
reliability will represent the first such major addition
to current procedures now in use that provide for initial
design only. (Author)
