Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2003
Many transportation agencies use pavement preservation programs to manage their pavement assets cost-effectively. One important aspect of pavement preservation is the use of preventive maintenance treatments to improve the functional condition of the network and retard the overall rate of deterioration.

Pavement Management for Honduras
ICSI 2014, 2014It can be argued that maintenance of road pavements is more critical for the longevity of this public asset as opposed to the actual construction, which tends to attract more attention. In many developing countries, such as Honduras, the absence or inadequacy of funding can undermine any effort to ensure optimal performance of the road over the course ...

Sustainable Pavement Management
2014Sustainable pavement management as a business practice is about facilitating pavement investment trade-offs considering the triple bottom line of sustainability during the design, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation of pavements. This chapter discusses the basic principles of pavement management and the changes necessary to help pavement ...

Management of pavement rehabilitation
European Journal of Operational Research, 1989Abstract The development of a decision support system (DSS) for pavement management is described. The system contains forecasting and optimization models. The forecasting model is used to predict the condition of stretches of road. The optimization model has the form of a linear programming problem with additional logical constraints.

Pavement Management in Kentucky
1984The principal objective of this paper is to summarize current pavement management activities in Kentucky. Early pavement management activities generally were decentralized (involving a number of transportation functions such as planning, design, construction, maintenance, and research) and involved long-term monitoring for skid resistance and ride ...

Unified Pavement Distress Index for Managing Flexible Pavements
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1992One of the innovative approaches for maintaining and rehabilitating the nation's highways is to develop and implement some form of pavement management system (PMS). This paper documents results of a survey on PMS use in the United States. In addition, a simple method for a PMS based on priority ranking is presented.

International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2014
Improving the sustainability of road pavements requires road agencies and construction companies to identify, by means of appropriate methodologies and tools, the priority areas of action. The life cycle assessment method has gradually become a versatile tool capable of informing decisions on resource and process selection to better understand, measure

A Statewide Pavement Management System
Interfaces, 1982A pavement management system was developed for the State of Arizona to produce optimal maintenance policies for each mile of the 7,400-mile network of highways. The heart of the system is a mathematical model which captures the dynamic and probabilistic aspects of pavement maintenance.

Intelligent system for pavement management
SPIE Proceedings, 1998This paper describes a method for the evaluation of pavement condition through artificial neural networks using the MLP backpropagation technique. Two of the most used procedures for detecting the pavement conditions were applied: the 'overall severity index' and the 'irregularity index.' Tests with the model demonstrated that the simulation with the ...
