Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, state highway agencies have come to understand the need for high quality pavement condition data at both the project and network levels. At the same time, agencies also realize that they have become too dependent on contractors to ensure the quality of the delivered data without any means to independently assure the quality of these data. This research study therefore aims to investigate the inherent variability of the automated data collection processes and proposes guidelines for an automated data collection quality management program in Indiana. In particular, pavement roughness data (in terms of IRI) and pavement surface distress data (in terms of PCR and individual pavement surface distress ratings) are considered in this study. Quality control protocols adopted by the contractor are reviewed and compared against industry standards. A complete quality control plan is recommended to be adopted for all phases of the data collection cycle: preproject phase, data collection phase, and post-processing phase. Quality assurance of pavement condition data can be viewed in terms of (i) completeness of the delivered data for pavement management; (ii) accuracy, precision and reliability of pavement roughness data; and (iii) accuracy, precision and reliability of individual distress ratings and an aggregate pavement condition rating. An innovative two-stage approach is developed in this study to evaluate delivered data for integrity and completeness. Different techniques and performance measures that can be used to evaluate pavement roughness and pavement surface distress data quality are investigated. Causes for loss in IRI and PCR accuracy and precision are identified and statistical models are developed to relate project- and network-level IRIs and PCRs. Quality assurance procedures are then developed to allow highway agencies improve their pavement condition data collection practices and enhance applications in the pavement management systems.

Download or read book Guide to Quality in Preconstruction Engineering written by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. Task Force on Preconstruction Engineering Management and published by American Association of State Highway & Transportation Officials. This book was released on 2003 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no question that quality is both desirable and necessary in preconstruction engineering. In 1992, the entire highway industry joined together to establish the National Quality--Initiative known since November 2000 as the National Partnership for Highway--Quality and to develop a National Policy on the Quality of Highways. Each member agency has pledged to support that policy by making a continuing commitment for quality products, information, and services. With this in mind, this guide is intended to be a reference for agencies to use in furthering their quality improvement programs by providing information on possible approaches for developing, measuring, and achieving quality in their preconstruction programs.
