DEVELOPMENT OF A PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE ALGORITHM FOR USE IN PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • This paper introduces a new concept in determining distress density limits for the recommendation of preventive maintenance treatments. The procedure described relates distress density directly to the Pavement Condition Index used in the PAVER Pavement Management System. It can be applied to both asphalt concrete and portland cement concrete pavements, and is flexible enough to allow for local policies and economic factors. The initial algorithm may be expanded to include environmental or geographic factors and additional preventive maintenance treatments at a later date.
