Analyses are based on estimating the condition of all pavement sections in the analysis on the same date on an annual basis. To identify these dates, create rows in the table such that the time between successive rows is less than a year. Mathematically:
row.(N+1).date – row.(N).date ≤ 1 year

Date in row 2 is over three years after the date in row 1, so insert a row and give it a date of 1 year after row 1.

The gap between 4-5 is only 6 months, so we do not need to add a row there. The 5-6 gap is over a year, so we add another row and give it a date of 1 year after row 5.
