Abstract

To monitor and evaluate the functional condition of roads, an easy-to-understand and powerful parameter is important for countries whose road regulators have different capabilities, such as Indonesia. To date, Surface Distress Index (SDI) is still the most popular parameter for assessing the road functional condition in Indonesia, due to its simplicity and easy-to-understand features. However, the index has a lack of accurateness in assessing the damages. In this study, an improvement of the effectiveness of the damage assessment equation in SDI, especially for pothole and rutting damages, was carried out to increase the accuracy of the SDI in evaluating the functional conditions of the road. For this purpose, the damage assessment equations in the proposed SDI were developed based on the deduct values from Pavement Condition Index (PCI) that adjusted to the maximum value of the damage contribution for both types of distress. This study produces findings that the equations developed could produce more sensitive and consistent SDI values at different distress densities and levels of severity than that of the existing one.
