Evaluation of Pavement Edge Drains and the Effect on Pavement Performance
1994This report documents the performance of highway edge drains in Kentucky. Approximately eighteen high edge drain installations were inspected. The report also documents the laboratory testing, construction, short-term and long-term performance of these systems. Construction inspection and maintenance are addressed.

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2014
Performance measures considered for flexible and rigid surfaced pavements and the threshold values for these measures are reported. A survey was sent to members of the Joint Technical Committee on Pavements, and 14 of 20 states responded. Performance measures for flexible pavements included international roughness index (IRI), rutting, and cracking ...

PERFORMANCE AND REPAIR OF UTW PAVEMENTS
Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete Pavements, 2001Since its inception in the early 1990s, ultra-thin whitetopping (UTW) technique has rapidly developed into a viable pavement rehabilitation alternative for deteriorated asphalt pavement. The development of the mechanistic design procedure in 1997 represented a milestone in the development of this technology.

Abstract The performance warranty system is quite innovative in requiring a contractor’s warranty for pavement performance over a certain period of time. European countries adopted performance warranty systems about 40 years ago. The United States adopted this system in the early 1990s to improve construction quality and performance, as ...

Routine Maintenance and Pavement Performance
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1986A study of the relationship between pavement performance and routine maintenance is presented. A concept for deriving this relationship is described. This concept introduces two parameters to represent quantitatively pavement performance and level of pavement routine maintenance.

Of Pavement Deflection and Performance
Applications of Advanced Technologies in Transportation Engineering (2004), 2004There are three flexible pavement failure modes, namely, fatigue crack, thermal crack and deformation (rutting). When pavement layer materials are properly designed and constructed, the source of rutting is from permanent deformation of the subgrade. Of these failure modes, fatigue crack and rutting are related to number of load repetition and thermal ...

Performance-based specifications for pavements
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1991Pavements represent a very substantial portion of the public's investment in infrastructure. It is essential that this investment be preserved through cost-effective planning, design, and maintenance. One way of achieving this is through the use of long-term performance-based specifications. This paper first describes the current practice for pavement

Influence of ATB on Pavement Performance
Performance Modeling and Evaluation of Pavement Systems and Materials, 2009In order to study the influence of asphalt treated base (ATB) on pavement performance, a multi-layer elastic theory program is utilized to calculate the stress and strain in different pavement structures. Based on an instant heat conducting hypothesis, a finite element model is established to calculate the temperature stress and the strain of pavement ...
