Scoring

Severity Level

Definition

The classification of each distress as Low, Medium, or High severity per ASTM D6433. Road Triage assigns severity from measured crack width, rut depth, and pothole dimension.

In context

The same crack type counts for more or less depending on its severity level — Low, Medium, or High.
