This book was released on 1990 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes the activities undertaken to implement a pavement management system at 56 general aviation airports coming under the jurisdiction of the Virginia Department of Aviation (VDOAV). The system, which is called Micro-PAVER, is a proprietary program developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It is reported to be used at many airports in the U.S. and abroad and by many local government agencies in the U.S. Implementation involved the training and the use of highway employees as airport inspectors, the development of an historical data base for each airport, cataloging the current condition of each runway pavement, and the development and inclusion of feasible maintenance policies and their estimated costs in a computer package. Finally, a series of condition and projected future condition reports as well as reports concerning the estimated rehabilitation costs were developed from the computer package for each airport. The project covered a period of approximately 18 months and utilized nearly 50 VDOT employees. Several recommendations to the VDOAV concerning the future of general aviation airport pavement management are included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report summarizes the developments in pavement management in the Virginia Department of Transportation through late 1986. Included are discussions of the pavement management process with examples of priority programming, long-range projection of maintenance-replacement needs, and the monitoring of pavement rating teams. The report shows that the Department has made great progress both in the development and implementation of the pavement management system. Several recommendations address areas in which the system can be "fine tuned" and made more useful to both top and middle management.

Among the issues discussed are the development of an adequate data base and the implementation of a condition rating system. While the system envisioned is applicable to all Virginia pavements, such application on only the interstate system is discussed.

Book excerpt: The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) routinely rates public use airports using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) distress rating and evaluation method. The PCI method rates overall pavement condition and indicates the structural integrity and operational surface condition of the pavement. The Corps of Engineers developed the PAVER management system for the Federal Aviation Administration. The Micro PAVER pavement management system is an updated version of PAVER for the microcomputer. The Micro PAVER system provides a practical decision-making procedure for identifying cost-effective maintenance and repairs on airfield pavements, roads, streets, and parking areas. The PAVER system also features data storage and retrieval, pavement condition rating, project ranking, inspection scheduling, determination of present and future network condition, determination of maintenance and repair needs and costs, and budget planning.

This book was released on 1991 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of a Statewide Pavement Management System for Indiana airports was a multi-year project. The project has been carefully designed to ensure workability and to capitalize on changes in the state of the art in Pavement Management. The first year was an exploration of the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) inspection procedure. The first twenty eight airports were inspected in 1985, using the PCI procedures as outlined by the Federal Aviation Administration. This first step was unique in that it was the first statewide inspection conducted with the financial assistance of the FAA.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Road pavements management system (PMS) is a well-established approach that could benefit airports. For the implementation of an Airport Pavement Management System (APMS), there is a need to assess current pavement condition by considering observed distress levels and to match such condition to an apparent age, hence enabling the estimation of remaining life. Traditionally the use of a global pavement condition indicator (PCI) is deployed by airport agencies. The estimation of PCI is done manually utilizing reference charts and tables. Automating this estimation is an imperative need. Furthermore, being able to predict the consumption of life by current and future aircraft demand (frequency and distribution) is key to airport operations. AASHTO's mechanistic empirical method was recalibrated to match fatigue after 20 years of operations of a case study on Mashhad International Airport in Iran. The method considers the fatigue damage analysis and includes various factors like aircraft traffic and their loadings and pavement structural parameters. One of the objectives of this research was to automate the estimation of pavement condition index (PCI) based on observed distresses, facilitating the identification of damage and the association of remedial work. The second objective was to predict the pavement's remaining life by using the fatigue damage analysis technique by enabling the ability to predict pavement performance and the assumption that a pavement fails when the load repetition exceeds a certain threshold. By connecting both approaches, better decisions for the type of intervention and the timing of the intervention can be done.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report traces the development of a rating system proposed by the author and reviewed by a subcommittee of the Pavement Management Research Advisory Committee for use in evaluating the service condition of Virginia's Portland cement concrete pavements. The service condition is assessed in terms of distress roughness, i.e., that portion of a pavement's poor ride characteristics directly attributable to the occurrence of certain key distress types. The key distresses identified for jointed concrete pavements are permanent patching, lane/shoulder separation, transverse joint faulting, transverse joint seal damage, and scaling, map cracking, or crazing. For continuously reinforced pavements, spacing of transverse cracks, lane/shoulder separation, and scaling, map cracking, or crazing were identified. Field surveys of the occurrence of these distresses provided the necessary data for estimating distress roughness through the use of prediction equations that have been established from the standard statistical analysis of pavement section distress data and roughness measurements. The use of distress roughness to reflect a pavement's service condition provides a common basis for comparison of pavement sections. This, in turn, enables managers to set priorities for pavement rehabilitation. These rating procedures and a comprehensive system for managing Portland cement concrete pavements will be implemented in a subsequent project.

Download or read book Assessment of Pavement Condition of General Aviation Airports in Kansas written by Mustaque Hossain and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major objective of this research was to assess the pavement condition of the General Aviation (GA) airport runways in Kansas. This study was also intended to form the basis for a pavement management system (PMS) for these airports. The survey shows that approximately 26% of the GA airport runway sections surveyed are in poor to failed condition. The pavement deterioration model developed for these sections indicates that by June 1997 this percentage will increase to about 33%. The network maintenance report developed in this study shows that the fifteen airports under this study are in need of approximately $800,000 for repairs as of June 1995 in order to keep the average condition of these airports rated as "good". In this pilot study, 16 out of 116 paved runways were surveyed for a PMS for the GA airports in Kansas. This study indicates that a full-scale PMS based on MicroPAVER (a microcomputer-based PMS developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) for GA airports in Kansas is feasible. In order to develop a working PMS for the whole network in Kansas, it is recommended that as a minimum, a 30% sample, or 20 more paved runways, be surveyed.
