To understand the process of pavement maintenance and rehabilitation techniques in logical sequence involving existing pavement structural evaluation and condition assessment, distress mechanisms, assignment of feasible alternatives and overall design.

Introduction and definitions. Pavement condition surveys, materials, structural, and traffic data evaluations. Flexible pavement rehabilitation techniques: crack sealing, surface rehabilitation, hot mix asphalt overlays. Rigid pavement rehabilitation techniques: joint sealing, pressure relief joints, partial and full-depth repairs, slab stabilization and jacking, load transfer rehabilitation, rigid pavement overlay design. Identification of feasible alternatives. Selection of the preferred alternative.
