PT-6: Pavement Performance Tracking

Goal

Allow for more thorough performance tracking by integrating construction quality and pavement performance data.

Requirements

Use a process that allows construction quality measurements and long-term pavement performance measurements to be spatially located and correlated to one another. This implies four requirements:

1. Construction quality measurements must be spatially located such that the location of the quality measurement is known to within 25 ft of the actual location where the material or process that was measured is actually located.
2. Pavement condition measurements must be taken at least every 2 years and must be spatially located to a specific portion of roadway or location within the roadway.
3. An operational system, computer-based or otherwise, that is capable of storing construction quality measurements, pavement condition measurements and their spatial locations.
4. The designated system must be demonstrated in operation, be capable of updates and have written plans for its maintenance in perpetuity.

Documentation

A signed letter from an owner official stating that the performance tracking system is operational and has been populated with the required data.
