摘要: The purpose of this project, entitled 'Development of a Methodology for Identifying Pavement Design and Construction Data Needed to Support a Forensic Investigation,' is to develop a database containing information useful in identifying the premature failure of pavements. The proactice of forensic engineering is growing within the area of infrastructure management, as more andmore areas become in need of repair or replacement. In tems of pavement facilities, the amount of money spent each year amounts to millions of dollars for new construction, maintenance, and rehabilitative efforts within the state of Texas alone. When a pavement's performance does not satisfy the criteria under which it was designed, whether it be in terms of reduced structural capacity, increased roughness, reduced surface friction, or any other possible number of unforeseen circumstances, a premature failure has resulted.
