    The document discusses road damage identification and survey. It explains that roads are built to facilitate transportation but constant heavy traffic can damage roads through conditions like alligator cracking, potholes, and edge cracking. The document then details a student survey of road damage on a 100m road section. Students identified and classified different types of damage as low, medium, or high severity. Based on the survey results, pavement condition indexes were calculated and recommendations were made for needed maintenance or rehabilitation actions on the sampled roads.

    Conclusion

    Roadways are built to ease the flow of transportation so human can travel from
    one distance to another distance easily. There are many type of transportation
    nowadays such as cars, motorcycles, lorries and so on. Road has played an
    important role in the trade and transportation system throughout the world, and
    it become rapid increase in the pavement infrastructure development in
    Malaysia. The roads are designed to ensure the convenience of consumers and
    the public. Unfortunately, the road might be damage because of the constant
    use by heavy traffic destroys asphalt roads and unsuitable weathering. Damaged
    roads need to repair immediately as they can cause accidents and traffic
    congestion. There are many types of road damages that we have learnt during
    our class.
    Type of road damages :

    Alligator Cracking
    Bleeding
    Block Cracking
    Bumps and Sags
    Corrugation
    Depression
    Edge Cracking
    Longitudinal Transverse Cracking
    Patcching & Utility Cut Patching
    Potholes
    Rutting
    Shoving
    Ravelling

    We have asked to do some survey the severity of the road damages on roadways
    in UTHM. Before we start the survey, we decided to identify the type of road
    damagest by referring the notes and other resources so that the survey can be
    done easily.

    Identifying the road damages by referring notes

    After that, we start our survey on 100m long road. The roads are measured on
    their length and width.

    Measuring the width of road


    We identify the road damages on the 100m sampel length of road and record it
    in distress survey column. The road damages can be classified on low damage,
    medium and high damage. During the survey, we have identified many type of
    road damages such as Alligator Cracking, Block Cracking, Depression, Patching,
    Potholes, Edge Cracking, and Ravelling. Figure belows shows some of the road
    damages that have been surveyed.

    Low Edge Cracking

    Medium Patching

    Low Pothole

    Block Cracking

    Medium Alligator Cracking

    Medium Depression

    Each of the data are calculated to get the density. The calculation of density is
    help to determine the deduct value that can obtained from deduct value againt
    density graph. Lastly, the cumulative deduct value is determined by total
    cumulative deduct value against total deduct values graph. Lastly, the Pavement
    Condition Index (PCI) is calculated and the degree of damages will be known. The
    PCI measures the pavements structural integrity and surface operational
    condition.

    Therefore, for 1 km sampel, we have identifiy the pavement conditions. The data
    can be concluded as follow :
