Emphasizing sound, cost-effective management rather than emergency repairs, this comprehensive volume offers practical guidelines on evaluating and managing pavement for federal, state, and local government agencies, airports, and commercial industries such as department stores and hotel chains. It is also a valuable reference for educational institutions and consultants.

Extensive appendices serve as field manuals for identifying all types of pavement distress and their causes, and hundreds of photographs facilitate accurate pavement evaluation. Civil and pavement engineers will find complete information on pavement inspection, evaluation, and management in this indispensable reference.
