During the field condition surveys and validation of the PCI, several questions are commonly asked about the identification and measurement of some of the distresses. The answers to these questions for each distress are included under the heading “How to Measure.” For convenience, however, the most frequently raised issues are addressed in Table A-16. UFM 3-260-16 29 May 2026 211 Table A-16 Frequent Problems in Pavement Distress Identification
o not count joint reflective cracking in asphalt over concrete pavements as longitudinal and transverse cracking. Longitudinal and transverse cracks are measured in linear feet (linear meters). The length and severity of each crack should be recorded. If the crack does not have the same severity level along its entire length, each portion of the crack having a different severity level should be recorded separately.

coarse aggregate due to the loss of fine aggregate matrix. UFM 3-260-16 29 May 2026 99 H Edges of coarse aggregate have been exposed greater than one-fourth width (of the longest side) of the coarse aggregate. There is considerable loss of fine aggregate matrix, leading to potential or some loss of coarse aggregate. A-2.20.2 How to Measure. Surface wear is measured in square feet (square meters). Surface wear is not recorded where medium- and/or high-severity raveling is recorded.
