Predicting Pavement Performance

Transportation Engineering Journal of ASCE, 1974
An approach using a new modeling technique (transfer function theory) was developed to predict the performance of a pavement system subjected to dynamic load inputs. The study indicated that the characteristics of flexible pavement could be represented by a series of time-dependent transfer functions obtained from dynamic tests using practically any ...

Evaluation of Pavement Edge Drains and Their Effect on Pavement Performance

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1996
Research was conducted on pavement edge drains between 1991 and 1995 in Kentucky by the Kentucky Transportation Center. The study was initiated in an attempt to determine the effectiveness of these systems in improving pavement performance. Each edge drain system was evaluated on the basis of construction, maintenance, and performance of the edge drain

Pavement Performance Index for Ratıng of Flexıble Pavements

2019
In this paper author has made an attempt to develop a Pavement Performance Index (PPI) for a rating of flexible pavements. For the development of the PPI model, normalized method of fuzzy multiple criteria decision making method has been used. Total sixteen parameters have been considered as structural and functional indicators.

Performance Evaluation of Pavement Preservation Using Long-Term Pavement Performance Data

Airfield and Highway Pavement 2013, 2013
This paper investigated the effectiveness of pavement preservation on preventing different pavement distresses and identified the factors significantly affecting the effectiveness of preservation. Twenty-one specific sites with only one preservation treatment applied in the monitoring period were selected from the Specific Pavement Studies-3 (SPS-3 ...

Impact of pavement layer properties on the structural performance of inundated flexible pavements

Transportation Geotechnics, 2018
Abstract The assessment of the structural performance of flooded pavements remains complicated due to the lack of structural data in the aftermath of flooding and the fact that information about the pavement structure and materials is not always readily available.

PERFORMANCE AND REPAIR OF UTW PAVEMENTS

Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete Pavements, 2001
Since its inception in the early 1990s, ultra-thin whitetopping (UTW) technique has rapidly developed into a viable pavement rehabilitation alternative for deteriorated asphalt pavement. The development of the mechanistic design procedure in 1997 represented a milestone in the development of this technology.

Threshold Values of Performance Indicators for Asphalt Concrete Pavement to Apply to Pavement Performance Warranty

Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 2014
Abstract The performance warranty system is quite innovative in requiring a contractor’s warranty for pavement performance over a certain period of time. European countries adopted performance warranty systems about 40 years ago. The United States adopted this system in the early 1990s to improve construction quality and performance, as ...

Concrete Pavement Performance in Midwestern Argentina Compared with Long-Term Pavement Performance Data

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2006
Portland cement concrete pavements have been constructed in many areas in Argentina that feature heavy traffic and freeways and highways in freezing areas. To predict their performance, computational programs such as the World Bank's HDM-4 may be used.
