Energy Savings in Utah Through Preventive Pavement Construction
A study to determine the energy impact of different preventive construction strategies for pavements was made. Results show that as pavements deteriorate to poor condition, fuel consumption and operating costs for all vehicles increase. It was also found that a failed pavement may require as much as four times more surfacing compared to the same pavement if rehabilitated before considerable damage is done. Development of a performance rating system is described. Findings of a Utah DT study to evaluate pavement conditions on the State Highway System to determine existing conditions and to predict future performance are summarized. Four different plans or strategies were analyzed to determine the relative energy requirement. This report includes the costs of upgrading the existing highway system to achieve the level specified by the Strategies. The costs and benefits associated with each Strategy are identified and quantified.
