CE 443 Pavement Design & Rehabilitation 1
PMS Definition
• “ ... a systematic process that provides,
analyzes, and summarizes pavement
information for use in selecting and
implementing cost-effective pavement
construction, rehabilitation, and maintenance
programs” (US Federal Register)
• “ … a set of tools/methods to assist decision-
makers in finding cost-effective strategies for
providing, evaluating, and maintaining
pavements in a serviceable condition” (FHWA)
CE 443 Pavement Design & Rehabilitation 2
Pavement Management System
Decision support tool used by pavement
personnel to assist in making cost-effective
decisions concerning pavements
Operational package that enables systematic
coordinated planning and programming of
investments or expenditure for design,
construction, maintenance, rehabilitation,
renovation, operation, and in-service evaluation of
pavements

Portland cement concrete (PCC)
• Portland cement concrete (PCC) is a mixture
of aggregate, cementitious material, and
water that forms a rigid, paved surfacing
• Portland cement concrete pavements (PCCP)
have very good performance characteristics
with respect to strength, durability, and ride
quality.

for every lane-mile of 2-inch asphalt
rubber pavement
