Evaluation of Flexible Pavement Distress Using Pavement Condition Index: A Case Study of Rajkot Kalavad Road (SH-23)

A need of transportation increase with economic growth rate after independence of our country. Road transport is the key mode to use other mode of transport. So it's require management for increase life of pavement. In India most of the highway observed as flexible pavement. Highway pavement is facing problem like as deterioration, cracking, rutting and fatigue in short duration due to development of city. So, Pavement service life is big challenge for Pavement management system. Normally the serviceability of highway pavement depend on how well it is maintained. Maintenance and rehabilitation technique is depend on different type of pavement condition rating system The primary purpose of this study is determine pavement condition index using code ASTM D6433-16 for identify priority of maintenance. In this study collected traffic volume survey, conducted visual survey, different type of Pavement surface distress data and identify its severity level. Using distress data sheets for each sample determined PCI of whole section. Finally analysis of all data sheet of give PCI of stretch.
