... This survey includes questions related to drainage design, pavement structure consideration, construction, maintenance, preservation, and rehabilitation activities. Your thoughtful and complete responses are very important, as they will lead to improved guidance on mitigating moisture-related pavement damage, which in turn will improve pavement performance and reduce pavement life-cycle costs.
