The overall objectives of this research study may be stated as follows: Determine if surface characteristic measurements can be correlated to wet-pavement crashes in Ohio; Provide improved guidance on the use of ribbed versus smooth tires for pavement surface friction testing in Ohio, including the identification of suggested minimum surface friction numbers associated with each tire type; Provide recommended desirable or target surface friction numbers as a function of site categories and friction demand. Accomplishments of these objectives will help ODOT address their goal of reducing total crashes 10 percent and rear-end crashes by 25 percent by 2015.

Emphasizing sound, cost-effective management rather than emergency repairs, this comprehensive volume offers practical guidelines on evaluating and managing pavements for airports, roads, and parking lots. The author focuses on the implementation and maintenance of successful management strategies for both network and project levels, with repair techniques also described . Detailed chapters: 1) outline step-by-step procedures for project and network level pavement management 2) illustrate effective cost analysis and budget planning for pavement maintenance 3) guide the reader in the selection and use of non-destructive deflection, roughness measurement, and friction measurement equipment 4) present state-of-the-art pavement rehabilitation and condition prediction techniques 5) demonstrates the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) procedure for airfields and surfaced and unsurfaced roads. Extensive appendices serve as a field manual for identifying all types of pavement distress and their causes, and hundred of photographs facilitate accurate pavement evaluation. Civil and pavement engineers will find complete information on pavement inspection, evaluation, and management in this indispensable reference.
