Development of a roughness estimation model for low volume roads
Građevinar, 2018 Pavement roughness is one of essential performance indicators that are used in road maintenance. A model was developed in this study to obtain roughness value from easily measurable distress values, namely cracking and potholes, for low-volume roads in ...

Socio-economic impacts of low-volume roads using a mixed-method approach of PCA and Fuzzy-TOPSIS
International Review for Spatial Planning and Sustainable Development, 2021 The present study proposes a novel mixed-method approach to ascertain and explore the socio-economic indicators, which help in assessing the impacts of the construction of rural roads. Rural road infrastructure often has direct or indirect socio-economic

Statistical modelling of rutting for low-volume roads in India
Građevinar, 2023 This study considers a road rutting model better-suited for the flexible pavements in the low-volume roads of India. The rutting on a road directly affects various aspects such as the pavement performance, safety, driving comfort, and travel time ...
