This study was to investigate current practice, select the best techniques, and recommend equipment and methodology suitable for pavement condition evaluation. It consisted of visits to chosen States to determine pavement properties that can be measured and provide data for management decisions. The information collected was supplemented with a literature search and a limited firsthand review of equipment in use. The recommended roadway property measurements needed for pavement condition evaluation as inputs to pavement management systems are skid resistance, roughness, structural capacity, and pavement distress used to assist in pavement repair strategy. Suggestions on data processing, storage, and retrieval are also given in the report.
