Many factors have an impact on flight operation safety and air transport participants life. This article presents one of them, which is maintenance of the airport infrastructure in a good condition, with proper infrastructure management, in particular of cash and human resources. At the beginning of the article, attention is paid to the aspect of safety and human life in air transport. Also, an overview of world experience in the field of assessment of the technical condition of airport pavements was presented, including the standard method of the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) estimation. Then, the authors propose an innovative method of assessing the condition of airport pavements based on the Airfield Pavement Condition Index (APCI), taking into account, apart from the extent of surface damage, such parameters as load capacity, evenness, roughness, and bond strength. This approach gives a broader picture of the actual condition of the airport pavement, which has a great importance on flight operation safety, including passengers and cruel life. Next the described research method is experimentally verified in real conditions at Polish airports. Finally, an example of using the APCI method in the assessment of selected airport pavements from Polish airports is presented. The results of tests performed on five functional elements of a military airfield are presented. A satisfactory result is obtained for three elements, an adequate—for two.

There are two methods of road assessment, ie, visually and using tools. Visual assessment makes use of the PCI (Pavement Condition Index), while assessment with the Roadroid app can be used to obtain the value of IRI (International Roughness Index) with less cost. Functional assessment of roads in the field more use of visual methods. This method is influenced by the subjectivity of surveyors. Therefore, the assessment using the visual method should be correlated with the assessment method using tools, in order to reduce the subjectivity of road assessment. The research location used is Magetan District Road consisting of 5 road segments. The result shows that the r road assessment using the PCI method has a very good condition, and using IRI Roadroid has a Medium condition. There is a negative (r) correlation between PCI and IRI Roadroid, valued at -0.23. The negative correlation shows that both judgments reversed. Comparison of PCI assessment with IRI Roadroid has a low correlation value and with ttest, yields no comparison of correlation. This result is because the PCI and IRI equally assess the pavement, using different methods.

Pavement crack and pothole identification are important tasks in transportation maintenance and road safety. This study offers a novel technique for automatic asphalt pavement crack and pothole detection which is based on image processing. Different types of cracks (transverse, longitudinal, alligator-type, and potholes) can be identified with such techniques. The goal of this research is to evaluate road surface damage by extracting cracks and potholes, categorizing them from images and videos, and comparing the manual and the automated methods. The proposed method was tested on 50 images. The results obtained from image processing showed that the proposed method can detect cracks and potholes and identify their severity levels with a medium validity of 76%. There are two kinds of methods, manual and automated, for distress evaluation that are used to assess pavement condition. A committee of three expert engineers in the maintenance department of the Mayoralty of Baghdad did the manual assessment of a highway in Baghdad city by using a Pavement Condition Index (PCI). The automated method was assessed by processing the videos of the road. By comparing the automated with the manual method, the accuracy percentage for this case study was 88.44%. The suggested method proved to be an encouraging solution for identifying cracks and potholes in asphalt pavements and sorting their severity. This technique can replace manual road damage assessment.

This study aimed at developing SBPCI (Sidewalk Block Pavement Condition Index) with sidewalk pavement condition survey data of Seoul city in order to attain a quantitative evaluation method of sidewalk pavement condition. The distress patterns of sidewalk pavement were classified into four groups of Crack/Loss, Roughness, Aging, and Corner Break. AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) technique was employed on the basis of the raking process of 31 pavement managers in order to analyze the influence of the distress patterns on the sidewalk pavement condition. The AHP analysis result indicated the weight of pop out, roughness, surface abrasion, and corner break were 0.521, 0.244, 0.164, and 0.070, respectively, by distress type. A model equation was derived by using the sidewalk pavement condition data from 420 sections. The correlation analysis between the result of the model equation and distress type revealed that the correlation of corner break was low to be excluded from SBPCI model; while pop out, roughness, and surface abrasion were statistically significant to be used as three variables of the developed SBPCI model.

[IN] Ruas Jalan Soekarno-Hatta kota Palembang merupakan Jalan Nasional yang berkelas Jalan Arteri Primer yang dilapisi dengan perkerasan lentur (flexible pavement). Jalan yang diamati dari Simpang Empat fly over Tanjung Api-Api hingga Simpang Empat Macan Lindungan  memiliki panjang 8,45 kilometer. Saat itu kota Palembang sedang menggenjot pembangunan proyek venue dan LRT guna menyukseskan perhelatan olahraga Asian games. Ruas Jalan Soekarno-Hatta Palembang digunakan sebagai aktivitas lalulintas kendaraan proyek akibatnya terjadi peningkatan volume kendaraan dan kepadatan lalulintas yang tak terkendali, sehingga dikhawatirkan berdampak pada kualitas perkerasan jalan tersebut. Tujuan Penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi kerusakan permukaan perkerasan lentur jalan dengan menggunakan metode PCI (Pavement Condition Index). Survei metode PCI dilakukan secara visual berdasarkan jenis dan tingkat kerusakan jalan dengan penilaian numerik antara nol (gagal) hingga seratus (sempurna). Hasil identifikasi kerusakan permukaan jalan menunjukkan bahwa kerusakan yang terjadi pada ruas jalan tersebut sebanyak tujuh jenis yaitu kegemukan, amblas, keriting, pelepasan butiran, retak kulit buaya serta tonjolan dan lengkungan. Jumlah unit sampel segmen jalan yang mengalami kerusakan sebanyak 17 unit sampel dari total yang diteliti 68 unit sampel dengan nilai rata-rata PCI didapatkan sebesar 95,655 artinya jalan tersebut dengan kondisi “Sempurna”. Meskipun ruas jalan tersebut tergolong sempurna secara kondisi, akan tetapi masih terdapat kerusakan yang terjadi pada ruas tersebut, untuk itu perlu dilakukan pemeliharaan jalan pada unit sampel yang rusak sehingga dapat menjaga kualitas serta umur layak ruas jalan tersebut. [EN] The Soekarno-Hatta Road section of the city of Palembang is a classy National Road of the Primary Arterial Road that is equipped with flexible pavement. The road chosen from Simpang Empat fly over Tanjung Api-Api to Simpang Empat Macan Lindungan has a length of 8.45 kilometers. At present the city of Palembang is being promoted by a construction site and LRT project to succeed in the sporting event Asian games. The Soekarno-Hatta Palembang Road Section is used as a project vehicle traffic activity resulting in an increase in vehicle volume and uncontrolled traffic density, so it is feared to have an impact on the quality of the pavement. The purpose of this study was to identification road surface damage using the PCI (Pavement Condition Index) method. PCI survey method is carried out  visually based on the type and severity level of road damage with a numerical rating between zero (failed) to one hundred (excellent). The results of identification of road surface damage showed that there were 7 types of damage that occurred on the road section namely bleeding, depression, corrugation, weathering and raveling, potholes, alligator cracking, and bumps and sags. The number of sample units of the road segment that suffered damage as many as 17 sample units of the total studied by 68 units samples with an average value of PCI obtained by 95,655, This means that the road with the condition "excellent". Even though the road is classified as excellent, but damage is still needed in that section, for this reason it is necessary to maintain the road on the damaged sample unit so that it can be used at a reasonable quality for the life of the road section.
