Abstract: As the assessment of pavement performance has considerable repercussions for the construction quality of roads, the study of the assessment procedure used is extremely critical. Riding quality index (RQI), pavement condition index (PCI), pavement structure strength index (PSSI), skid resistance index (SRI), and antirutting index (ARI) are selected as the assessment indexes of pavement performance. Then, the entropy weight-variable fuzzy sets model is introduced. Second, a relative membership degree matrix for the variable fuzzy sets is established, and the entropy weight method is used to determine the weight coefficients considering the uncertainty in the assessment indices. Finally, the quality level of pavement performance is determined by using the mean ranking feature value. The conclusions demonstrate a very accurate rate for the quality assessment of the pavement performance based on the variable fuzzy sets model compared to that based on the current specification, and the proposed method is feasible for the quality assessment of pavement performance, thus providing a novel means of assessing the quality level of pavement performance in the future.
