“Keep good roads good”

Separate the engineering from the politics

COE “PAVER” system (since 1984). ◦ Provides PCI – structural condition

◦ Provides condition and treatment history

◦ Models impact of treatments on network

Maintain within budget

Thoroughfares ◦ Built to high standards

◦ 45 MPH +

◦ ADT > 10,000

Safety Concerns

Impact on Traffic

Leads to the

question…

How to safely rate

thoroughfares? [

• COE PAVER

• Windshield

• Calendar

• Super Van

• Roughness

1970s ◦ World Bank sponsored studies to

determine plans for developing

countries infrastructure

1982 ◦ Brazil correlation experiment

established IRI as consistent method

1986 ◦ Methods to calculate IRI presented

Ross/Rome Field Testing ◦Vehicle speed

◦Driver influence

◦Survey Techniques

◦Thresholds

Speed o Minimum > 20 mph

o 25-35 mph most consistent

Driver Impact o < 5% at recommended speeds

Survey Techniques ◦Lead-in

◦Constant speed (Minimize

braking/acceleration)

◦Avoid valve/manhole lids

◦Drive 500 ft in advance

Observed Range ◦65 (Month old overlay on

Metcalf – 87th to 99th Street)

◦184 (Maintenance required on

Quivira – College to 119th Street)

Data Processing ◦Remove low-speed records

(< 20 mph)

◦ “Clean” data using statistics routine

◦ Import Average IRI into PAVER

City’s ranking system PCI based ◦ “Keep good streets good”

Structural vs. Ride Quality

Divorce thoroughfares from PCI ◦ “Roughest first”

FHWA (Urban/Rural Interstate 2006)

◦ IRI < 170: Acceptable

◦ IRI < 95: Good/Very Good

Pennsylvania (Non-NHS, ADT > 2000)

Pavement Serviceability Rating ◦ "The judgment of an observer as to

the current ability of a pavement to

serve the traffic it is meant to serve"

(Highway Research Board, 1962)

PSR vs. IRI ◦Patterson study (1986)

links PSR and IRI
