Abstract :
Highways perform a seminal role in the economic development for any country. The road network is a crucial infrastructure that needs to be developed and kept in a function able condition; so that, its benefits can be achieved. For ages, pavements were kept but not administered. The expertise of the pavement engineer determined the choice of Maintenance and Repair (M&R) methods regardless of the expense and quality of the life cycle as opposed to other pavement segments in the map of the roads` network. Nowadays, in the light of economic environment, since the pavement infrastructure has worn out, a more organized and disciplined way to specify M&R needs and priorities seems a must. To keep the pavements well, the factors affecting pavement performance need to be identified. Examples of such factors are climate, drainage, material properties, construction quality and traffic loads. Due to exposure to traffic and environmental factors distresses show up with time throughout the service life of the pavement. Thus, pavement performance is negatively affected and if not treated at the right time, the service life will be shorter along with inferior ride quality. In order to evaluate pavement condition and thus its performance, a reliable pavement condition index is needed. This index is based upon pavement condition surveys which can be conducted either manual (visual inspection) or automated (by a van). If the quality of the pavement is assessed and the distresses are identified, there are currently several indices available for evaluating pavement performance. This paper presents a comparative study between the pavement condition indices to determine the most suitable method for implementation in roads.
