Abstract

Transportation is a catalyst for development of any society. Road transportation is considered as veins and arteries of a nation, thus roads are constructed with variety of materials & specifications to mitigate the connectivity problems. Utmost care is taken in designing & developing the road ways, may it be in designing the network of roads or designing components of roads or in considering materials for construction. Hence it is very much essential to analyse a flexible pavement for its responses on application of vehicular loads. Due to repeated application of loads, the performance of the pavement deteriorates and hence damage assessment procedures are carried out to rectify the defects produced in flexible pavement to provide PCI by conducting tests and survey’s like traffic volume count, distress survey, texture depth & rating survey.
