Abstract
For the Pavement Analysis research, my goal was to find the deformations that occur along a road and then to determine the appropriate methods to fix the deformations along the road. During the Pavement Analysis research, I observed the types of deformations that occurred on parts of Varsity Dr by walking up and down the road and taking pictures of the deformation. After determining all the types of deformations, I graded the road on a PCI scale (Pavement Condition Index). Using this index, I determined if the road was in good, fair, poor, or failed condition. After looking at the severity of the entire road based on the PCI and the types of deformations that occurred, I decided if the road needed to be completely remade or if simple rehabilitation methods were needed. At the end of my research, I determined the deformations that occurred on Varsity Dr, how sever the was damage to the road and the correct methods to fix the road.
