• Pavement distresses by type of distress severity and area (i.e., alligator, block, transverse, edge cracking, raveling, bleeding etc.). Specific types of distresses to be measured will be determined prior to the start of the inventory. • Pavement Condition Index (PCI), taking into account the surface condition, level of distress, ride, and drainage to provide an overall condition assessment. The numbering system ranges between 0 and 100, with 100 indicating new pavement (approximately a 25 -year life expectancy without preventive maintenance). • Surface conditions will be evaluated and each segment rated with an overall score, taking into account general surface characteristics, weathering, etc. The specific types of pavement distresses to be collected will be reviewed and verified during discussions with City staff prior to the start of the survey. We will collect data on the extent and severity of distresses such as longitudinal /transverse cracking, edge cracking, bleeding /flushing, etc. This information will allow us to conduct the inventory in a simple efficient manner. City personnel can participate and observe for any period of time during the field inventory. At several scheduled times during the survey, Berryman & Henigar staff will perform a quality control test within the pavement management software using a sample set of Santa Ana street distress data. This will ensure that all system and analysis settings as well as City recommendations and standards are programmed correctly. Berryman & Henigar staff will input all collected pavement data into the software along with any additional roadside data that has been defined for this project (curb and gutter, sidewalk data). Our staff and surveyors will be responsible for organizing the work to minimize traffic disruption on the City's street system. All work will be performed in accordance with OSHA standards and, if requested, Berryman & Henigar staff will inform City engineering and police staff when and where our teams will be working within the week's period. We will provide your staff with the electronic copy of your updated/converted PMS database files for inclusion into your network. All conversion /verification will be performed in -house at Berryman & Henigar using the most recent version release. From there we will coordinate with your staff to purchase the software and /or implement the new files with your information services /communication network. STATUS MEETINGS Regular status meetings during the project, between Berryman & Henigar and the City's Project Manager, will be conducted to report on project status, concerns, and quality control efforts. This is typically done with monthly meetings dependent upon the City's current workloads. TASK 6: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FINAL REPORT (OPTIONAL) A. PREPARE NETWORK DATA REPORT Upon completion of the Pavement Condition Survey, Berryman & Henigar will prepare a report that documents the condition of all pavement segments inventoried (local streets for this project).
