Abstract

The large and ever-increasing investment demands for the upkeep and for ensuring the desired level of serviceability of road infrastructure facilities that were created at great cost have concerned administrators, policy makers, and highway pro-fessionals in India, and caused them to seek appropriate solutions, in view of resource constraints, for road maintenance and rehabilitation problems. The development of a pave-ment management system for different conditions prevailing in the country is a step in this direction. A number of studies have been completed for achieving this objective, and a long-range project entitled the Pavement Performance Study (PPS) is in progress; its goal is to develop data for a total trans-portation cost model for Indian conditions. The part of the PPS project on Existing Pavement Sections was completed recently, and pavement deterioration models have been de-
