ANALISIS KERUSAKAN JALAN RAYA WEWEWA UTARA DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN METODE PAVEMENT CONDITION INDEX (PCI)

Abstract

The highway is a vital piece of land transportation infrastructure in supporting the economic life of a region, because the road has a supporting role in the continuity of the distribution of services and goods. In addition to traffic activity factors, there are also several factors that reduce the quality of the road surface. Based on these problems, it is necessary to maintain the structure of the North Wewewa highway, so that the distribution process of services and goods that pass through the North Wewewa highway is not disturbed, and the economic growth of the community becomes smoother. Therefore, to be able to carry out proper maintenance, it is necessary to analyze the damage to the road in order to know the degree of damage and repairs that need to be done. In this case, the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) method is used because the condition of the North Wewewa highway has different characteristics in determining the type, level, and level of damage, as well as handling road damage
