Management aspects of road pavement rehabilitation
نویسنده
چکیده
The optimization of a pavement management system necessitates the knowledge on the actual values of pavement condition parameters, actual pavement condition improvement as related to the use of various rehabilitation strategies, and scope of pavement deterioration before and after rehabilitation. The data for six pavement condition parameters (bearing capacity, unevenness, rut depth, macro texture, micro texture, and pavement surface defects) are used to enable improvement of relevant technical specifications and further development of the network-level pavement management system.

The surface layer of road pavement has a particular importance in relation to the satisfaction of the primary demands of locomotion, such as security and eco-compatibility. In order to reduce road maintenance and rehabilitation costs and optimize the service condition of road networks, pavement management systems (PMS) need reliable and detailed data on the status of the highway network. Laser ...
متن کاملHeuristic Approach for Fund Allocation in Complex Rehabilitation Programs
Pavements are important assets to the safety and serviceability of road networks. Due to their fast deterioration and stringent municipal budgets, allocating the limited rehabilitation funds becomes a complex task. In this paper, an efficient heuristic approach for fund allocation has been introduced. After prioritizing pavements based on different criteria, such as AADT, pavement IRI, and road...

Pavement condition evaluation is a significant part of a good pavement management system for effective maintenance, rehabilitation, and reconstruction decision-making. One of the key components of pavement condition evaluation is the quantification of pavement distresses data. Cracking is the main form of early pavement distresses. Cracking of pavement affects road condition, driving comfort, t...

Rapid growth in a number of vehicles on roadways accelerates pavement deterioration trends. Pavement inefficiency in carrying the applied load from passing vehicles results in spending significant costs on continues Maintenance and Rehabilitation (M&R) treatments. Lane closure owing to the implementation of M&R operations incurs enormous costs on road users. The research aimed to calculate, and...
