Book Pavement Management Performance Modeling

Download or read book Pavement Management Performance Modeling written by Faith Bektas and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work described in this report documents the activities performed for the evaluation, development, and enhancement of the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) pavement condition information as part of their pavement management system operation. The study covers all of the Iowa DOT's interstate and primary National Highway System (NHS) and non-NHS system. A new pavement condition rating system that provides a consistent, unified approach in rating pavements in Iowa is being proposed. The proposed 100-scale system is based on five individual indices derived from specific distress data and pavement properties, and an overall pavement condition index, PCI-2, that combines individual indices using weighting factors. The different indices cover cracking, ride, rutting, faulting, and friction. The Cracking Index is formed by combining cracking data (transverse, longitudinal, wheel-path, and alligator cracking indices). Ride, rutting, and faulting indices utilize the International Roughness Index (IRI), rut depth, and fault height, respectively.

Book Developing Pavement Performance Prediction Models and Decision Trees for the City of Cincinnati

Download or read book Developing Pavement Performance Prediction Models and Decision Trees for the City of Cincinnati written by Arudi Rajagopal and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the details of a study conducted to develop pavement performance prediction models and decision trees for various families of pavements, using the data available with the City of Cincinnati. Required data was acquired from city's pavement inventory database. The road network was divided into two classifications namely, major roads and minor roads. These roads were further grouped based on their structural makeup. Statistical regression models were developed for each group. A decision tree was developed to suggest appropriate maintenance and rehabilitation activities based on the condition of the pavement. The city engineers can use these models in conjunction with their pavement management system to predict the future condition of the highway network in Cincinnati and to implement cost effective pavement management solutions. Using the methodology developed in this study, the engineers can also further improve the accuracy of the models in the future.

Book Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements

Download or read book Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements written by Lijun Sun and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 1072 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements provides engineers and researchers with a detailed guide to the structural behavioral dynamics of asphalt pavement including: pavement temperature distribution, mechanistic response of pavement structure under the application of heavy vehicles, distress mechanism of pavement, and pavement deterioration performance and dynamic equations. An authoritative guide for understanding the key mechanisms for creating longer lasting pavements, Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements describes the intrinsic consistency between macroscopic performance and microscopic response, structure and material, as well as global and local performances, and demonstrates the process of pavement analyses and designs, approaching science from empirical analyses. - Analyzes the external and internal factors influencing pavement temperature field, and provide a review of existing pavement temperature prediction models - Introduces a "Bridge Principle through which pavement performance and fatigue properties are consolidated - Defines the intrinsic consistency between macroscopic performance and microscopic response, structure and material, as well as global and local performance - Summaries the mechanistic response of pavement structure under the application of heavy vehicle, distress mechanism of pavement, pavement deterioration performance and dynamic equations, and life cycle analysis of pavement

Book The Construction of Pavement Performance Models for Flexible Pavement Wheelpath Cracking and IRI for the California Department of Transportation New Pavement Management System

Download or read book The Construction of Pavement Performance Models for Flexible Pavement Wheelpath Cracking and IRI for the California Department of Transportation New Pavement Management System written by Ester Tseng and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study is to propose a methodology to develop performance models that reflect the behavior of pavements in California using: 1) results obtained in previous studies, 2) performance estimates generated by the Caltrans mechanistic-empirical software (CalME), 3) an opinion survey circulated among Caltrans experts and 4) as-built records and data from Caltrans pavement condition surveys. The models developed in this study are intended to be used by the Caltrans Pavement Management System (PaveM), which is using a software framework developed by AgileAssets with the objective of optimizing maintenance and rehabilitation strategies. The models built in this study have been simplified to conform to the type of models required as inputs by the software. The only independent variable allowed in the software is pavement age. In order to comply with the configuration of the PaveM software, any other relevant factors have been accounted for as different branches in a performance model tree that leads to a different equation at the end of each final branch. Properties that are usually considered as continuous variables were considered as categorical variables and separated into different groups to conform to the framework. In addition to the simplifications required by the software, the available historical data for constructing the models required significant attention to produce the database used for the models, due to issues with the available as-built documents, and issues with location identification (due to constraints of location referencing technology and the precision required at the time) and sampling coverage (due to logistical constraints of condition surveys performed by walking the side of the road) in the condition survey data. Therefore, the data has significant variability and the models constructed from them have initial coefficients that are intended to be updated as improved data is acquired.

The book is comprehensive in the integration of activities that go into having safe and cost-effective pavements using the best technologies and management processes available. This is accomplished in seven major parts, and 42 component chapters, ranging from the evolution of pavement management to date requirements to determining needs and priority programming of rehabilitation and maintenance, followed by structural design and economic analysis, implementation of pavement management systems, basic features of working systems and finally by a part on looking ahead. The most current methodologies and practical applications of managing pavements are described in this one-of-a-kind book. Real world up-to-date examples are provided, as well as an extensive list of references for each part.
