The inventory consists of one or more pavement networks, which are divided into branches. Branches are divided into sections and each section is divided into sample units. Visually inspect the pavement sample units to assess the type, quantity, and severity of each pavement distress as described. The distress data are used to calculate the condition for each sample unit. The distress data are used to determine PCI, URCI, or SPACI, depending on the use and surface type of the pavement. Determine the condition of the pavement section based on the condition of the sample units inspected within the section. The survey procedures used to determine the PCI, URCI, and SPACI are all similar and each can be classified as standard, simplified (contingency), or cursory. The main distinguishing feature between these classifications is the number of sample units inspected and the resultant reliability of the results. The criticality of the asset, nature and duration of the mission, and ultimate use of the data are the determining factors for which procedure is used.
