Abstract
Government agencies need an efficient pavement management program today to achieve the best road value for the available funds. This report defines five basic functions of pavement management and discusses current efficient management practices within each pavement management function. Major cost factors associated with pavement management are discussed to illustrate some of the factors that should be examined when trying to improve efficiency. Pavement design is discussed to illustrate the various factors which effect pavement design. An overview of several current pavement design methods show which factors are or are not accounted for when using the
