1. PURPOSE The purpose of this manual is give assistance to staff and contractors assessing the condition of roads throughout the Bundaberg Regional Council. The definitions and examples given provide a basis for a uniform and consistent approach to condition rating a road. Road condition assessment enables the Shire to determine the overall condition of its road network as well as identify those road assets that require repair or renewal in future years.
2. DETERMINING SEVERITY Severity is an indicator of how bad the defect is. Any one segment may have defects at a number of severity levels. The severity level that is chosen is the one that is most predominant across the segment. 3. CALCULATING EXTENT For the purpose of field data collection, the raw measured data will be recorded against each road segment for each of the condition distresses. After field data collection is completed, this area (in square metres) is then compared to the total area for the segment. This yields the percentage extent of the road area that is affected by each defect. Subsequently a score of 0 to 5 can be applied to each road segment and for each condition distress. Examples have been provided in this road data condition assessment manual.
