Examples include roughness, rutting, cracking, surface texture, pavement strength (deflection), skid resistance, edge break, edge drop off, local defects and patching. Reporting can be either by bins or distress levels (e.g. good, fair, poor, bad, etc.), or on a continuous numerical scale (IRI, rut depth, crack width, percentage area patched, etc.)
