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 system for Lisbon
Municipal Engineer, 2004The City Council of Lisbon, Portugal, decided to build a pavement management system (PMS) for the vast road network under its administration at the beginning of 1999. This paper presents a geographical information system (GIS)-based PMS for Lisbon, developed by a team involving staff from the Lisbon City Council and the University of Coimbra.

Kentucky’s Pavement Management System
1977Pavement management concepts are discussed, and a method is presented illustrating the required data and its use to accumulate EAL's annually for comparison with the design EAL. This method can be used to determine overlay priorities, overlay design thicknesses, and financing schedules.

Pavement Management Accounting System
Journal of Infrastructure Systems, 2008In this paper, a pavement management accounting system (PMAS) is presented as a method for controlling the life cycle costs of road pavement. The aim of the PMAS is to provide decision makers with planning information regarding repair strategies and accounting information on asset values, with the aim of achieving efficient asset management of road ...

Management Systems for Pavement Maintenance
Transportation Engineering Journal of ASCE, 1979One of the single biggest investments of public agencies, if not the biggest, is its network of roads and streets. A lack of information concerning pavement designs, life cycles, maintenance effectiveness, and maintenance costs makes it difficult to objectively and systematically allocate funds. A variety of management systems are being developed which

Expert systems in pavement management
Transportation Research Part A: General, 1987Abstract This paper discusses the potential application of expert systems, a new information technology derived from artificial intelligence research, to pavement management. The principal focus concerns the development of such knowledge-based or expert systems for project-level analysis and design of pavement rehabilitation strategies.

Permeable pavement and stormwater management systems: a review
Environmental Technology, 2013Uncontrolled stormwater runoff not only creates drainage problems and flash floods but also presents a considerable threat to water quality and the environment. These problems can, to a large extent, be reduced by a type of stormwater management approach employing permeable pavement systems (PPS) in urban, industrial and commercial areas, where ...

Pavement surface friction and noise: integration into the pavement management system
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2010Pavement surface friction is an essential attribute of highway safety. The desired surface friction should also accommodate the seasonal and long-term variations. The available surface friction depends mainly on microtexture and macrotexture on pavement surfaces.

Use of Pavement Management System Data For Pavement Engineering Applications
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1997Agencies have collected data for pavement management for many years now. These data have been used primarily to develop short- and long-range rehabilitation programs. Another valuable use of these data is improvements to engineering procedures. The Illinois Pavement Feedback System (IPFS) is a comprehensive inventory and monitoring system that was ...

Improving Pavement Management System by Adding Pavement Preservation Component
Paving Materials and Pavement Analysis, 2010Pavement preservation can extend a pavement’s effective service life, improve safety and pavement service condition, and is a cost-effective approach. There are many benefits of adding pavement preservation into pavement management system. Pavement management system (PMS) can identify pavement preservation needs and help program pavement preservation ...
