Influence of Traffic Characteristics on Pavement Performance of Parking Lots
This research aims to identify and interpret the main traffic characteristics affecting the pavement condition index (PCI) of asphalt within parking areas. The study also examines the effect of severity and type of asphalt pavement distress on parking decisions. Previous literature examines the impact of the environment on asphalt pavement deterioration. This paper will focus on the shape of traffic operations within a parking area. The methodology includes applying a multilevel mixed regression model to reveal the hidden hierarchical relationship between traffic activities and the different types of pavement distresses and then discovering their effect on asphalt PCI. The resulting models showed that parking lots are aging faster than the common traveling roads due to the increased impact of axial loads on their surfaces at low and static speeds and some distinctive traffic characteristics. Moreover, some types of pavement distress, such as alligator cracks, potholes and depressions, appear more widely than others on the parking lot surface and significantly influence the parking decision. The conclusion of the research may significantly impact pavement design and maintenance management for parking lots.
