Summary of Test Method3.1 The pavement is divided into branches that are dividedinto sections. Each section is divided into sample units. Thetype a

18、nd severity of airport pavement distress is assessed byvisual inspection of the pavement sample units. The quantity ofthe distress is measured as described in Appendix X1 andAppendix X2. The distress data are used to calculate the PCIfor each sample unit. The PCI of the pavement section isdetermined

19、 based on the PCI of the inspected sample unitswithin the section.4. Significance and Use4.1 The PCI is a numerical indicator that rates the surfacecondition of the pavement. The PCI provides a measure of thepresent condition of the pavement based on the distressobserved on the surface of the paveme

20、nt which also indicatesthe structural integrity and surface operational condition (lo-calized roughness and safety). The PCI cannot measure thestructural capacity, neither does it provide direct measurementof skid resistance or roughness. It provides an objective andrational basis for determining ma

21、intenance and repair needsand priorities. Continuous monitoring of the PCI is used toestablish the rate of pavement deterioration, which permitsearly identification of major rehabilitation needs. The PCIprovides feedback on pavement performance for validation orimprovement of current pavement design

22、 and maintenanceprocedures.5. Apparatus5.1 Data Sheets, or other field recording instruments thatrecord at a minimum the following information: date, location,branch, section, sample unit size, slab number and size, distresstypes, severity levels, quantities, and names of surveyors.Example data shee

23、ts for AC and PCC pavements are shown inFig. 2 and Fig. 3.5.2 Hand Odometer Wheel, that reads to the nearest 0.1 ft(30 mm).5.3 Straightedge or String Line (AC only), 10 ft (3 m).5.4 Scale, 12 in. (300 mm) that reads to18 in. (3 mm) orbetter. Additional 12-in. (300-mm) ruler or straightedge isneeded

24、to measure faulting in PCC pavements.5.5 Layout Plan, for airport to be inspected.6. Hazards6.1 Traffic is a hazard as inspectors must walk on thepavement to perform the condition survey. Inspection must beapproved by and coordinated with the airport operational staff.6.2 Noise from aircraft can be

25、a hazard. Hearing protectionmust be available to the inspector at all times when airsideinspections are being performed.7. Sampling and Sample Units7.1 Identify areas of the pavement with different uses suchas runways, taxiways, and aprons on the airport layout plan.7.2 Divide each single-use area i

26、nto sections based on thepavement design, construction history, traffic, and condition.7.3 Divide the pavement sections into sample units. If thepavement slabs in PCC have joint spacings greater than 25 ft (8m), subdivide each slab into imaginary slabs. The imaginaryslabs should all be less than or

27、equal to 25 ft (8 m) in length,and the imaginary joints dividing the slabs are assumed to bein perfect condition. This is needed because the deduct valueswere developed for jointed concrete slabs less than or equal to25 ft (8 m).7.4 Individual sample units to be inspected should bemarked or identifi

28、ed in a manner to allow inspectors andquality control personnel to easily locate them on the pavementsurface. Paint marks along the edge and sketches with locationsconnected to physical pavement features are acceptable. Theuse of nails or other potential FOD sources is not recom-mended. It is necess

29、ary to be able to accurately relocate thesample units to allow verification of current distress data, toexamine changes in condition with time of a particular sampleunit, and to enable future inspections of the same sample unitif desired.7.5 Select the sample units to be inspected. The number ofsamp

30、le units to be inspected may vary from all of the sampleunits in the section, a number of sample units that provides a95 % confidence level, or a lesser number.7.5.1 All sample units in the section may be inspected todetermine the average PCI of the section. This is usuallyFIG. 1 Pavement Condition

Total sampling, however, isdesirable for project analysis to help estimate maintenance andrepair quantities.7.5.2 The minimum number of sample units (n) that must besurveyed within

32、a given section to obtain a statisticallyadequate estimate (95 % confidence) of the PCI of the sectionFIG. 2 Flexible Pavement Condition Survey Data Sheet for Sample UnitD534004e13is calculated using the following formula and rounding n to thenext highest whole number (1).n 5Ns2SSe24DN 2 1! 1 s2D(1)

33、where:e = acceptable error in estimating the section PCI. Com-monly, e = 65 PCI points,s = standard deviation of the PCI from one sample unit toanother within the section. When performing theinitial inspection, the standard deviation is assumed tobe ten for AC pavements and 15 for PCC pavements.This

34、 assumption should be checked as describedbelow after PCI values are determined. For subse-quent inspections the standard deviation from thepreceding inspection should be used to determine n,andN = total number of sample units in the section.7.5.2.1 If obtaining the 95 % confidence level is critical

35、, theadequacy of the number of sample units surveyed must beconfirmed. The number of sample units was estimated based onan assumed standard deviation. Calculate the actual standarddeviation(s) as follows (1):s 5(i 5 1nPCIi2 PCIf!2n 2 1!(2)where:PCIi= PCI of surveyed sample unit i,PCIf= mean PCI of s

36、urveyed sample units, andn = total number of sample units surveyed.7.5.2.2 Calculate the revised minimum number of sampleunits (Eq 1) to be surveyed using the calculated standarddeviation (Eq 2). If the revised number of sample units to besurveyed is greater than the number of sample units alreadysu

37、rveyed, select and survey additional random sample units.These sample units should be evenly spaced across the section.Repeat the process of checking the revised number of sampleunits and surveying additional random sample units until thetotal number of sample units surveyed equals or exceeds themin

38、imum required sample units (n) in Eq 1, using the actualtotal sample standard deviation).7.5.3 Alesser sampling rate than the above mentioned 95 %confidence level can be used based on the condition surveyobjective. As an example, one agency uses the following tablefor selecting the number of sample

39、units to be inspected forother than project analysis:Given Survey1 to 5 sample units 1 sample unit6 to 10 sample units 2 sample units11 to 15 sample units 3 sample units16 to 40 sample units 4 sample unitsover 40 sample units 10 %7.6 Once the number of sample units to be inspected hasbeen determined

40、, compute the spacing interval of the unitsusing systematic random sampling. Samples are equally spacedthroughout the section with the first sample selected at random.The spacing interval (i) of the units to be sampled is calculatedby the following formula rounded to the next lowest wholenumber:i 5N

41、n(3)where:N = total number of sample units in the section, andn = number of sample units to be inspected.The first sample unit to be inspected is selected at randomfrom sample units 1 through i. The sample units within asection that are successive increments of the interval i after thefirst randomly

Conduct the distress inspec-tion by walking over the sample unit being surveyed, measur-ing the quantity of each severity level of every distress typepresent, and recording the data. Distresses must correspond inty

46、pes and severities to those described in Appendix X1. Themethod of measurement is included with each distress descrip-tion. Measurements should be made to 60.1 ft (30 mm) withthe hand odometer. Summarize each distress type and severitylevel in either square feet or linear feet (square metres or line

47、armetres), depending on the type of distress. Repeat this proce-dure for each sample unit to be inspected.

Record the sample unit size, branch and section number,number and type of the sample unit (random or additional), thenumber of slabs in the sample unit, and the slab size measuredwith the hand odometer. Perform the inspection by walkingover each slab of the sample unit being s
