Maximum allowable number of deducts, m

Highest deduct value, HDV = 50 m = 1 + (9/98)(100 HDV) = 1 + (9/98)(100 50) = 5.6 Deduct values in descending order: 50, 32, 13, 7, 6, 6, 2 Number of deduct values = 7 Since the maximum allowable number of deducts is 5.6, therefore only the first 5 and 0.6 of the 6th deduct value are selected, i.e. 50, 32, 13, 7, 6, and 0.6*6 = 3.6. (3) Maximum corrected deduct value, CDV

Number of deduct values greater than 2, q = 6 Total deduct value = 50 + 32 + 13 + 7 + 6 + 3.6 = 111.6 From Figure B-45, CDV = 58 Reduce the smallest individual deduct value to 2 (q is now 5) and determine the CDV. Repeat until q reaches 1.

Determine the Pavement Condition Index

PCI = 100 CDVmax = 100 65 = 35 Based on the rating for PCI value of 35, this section of pavement is in very poor condition.
