Assessment of the functional performance of Mohammed al-Qasim expressway pavement surface

Abstract EN

To achieve these requirements need to assess the pavement surface condition (Functional Performance).

The pavement surface damage that frequently happens has an effect on the safety and comfort of road users.

Pavement condition assessment is the basic step to select a suitable type of maintenance and rehabilitation program.

This study aims to estimate the functional condition of the Mohammed Al-Qasim Expressway pavement surface by the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) assessment with data collected throughout 2017.

The result showed that the AC pavement surface condition assessment is equal to 70 based on PCI value, and rated as fair, and the transverse tining PCC pavement surface condition is rated as satisfactory and PCI value equals 77.
