From: Framework for airfield pavements management—an approach based on cost-effectiveness analysis
Pavement Condition Index (PCI) | Performance description | Applicable pavement preservation treatments |
|---|---|---|
86–100 | Good—only minor distresses | Routine maintenance only |
71–85 | Satisfactory—low and medium distresses | Preventive maintenance |
56–70 | Fair—some distresses are severe | Preventive maintenance and rehabilitation |
41–55 | Poor—severity of some of the distresses cancause operational problems | Rehabilitation or reconstruction |
26–40 | Very poor—severe distresses cause operational problems | Rehabilitation and reconstruction |
11–25 | Serious—many severe distresses cause operational restrictions | Immediate repairs and reconstruction |
0–10 | Failed—pavement deterioration prevents safeaircraft operations | Reconstruction |
