Alternative Methods for Pavement Network Rehabilitation Management
The report shows that significant benefits can occur to the traveling public and to the highway agency through improved pavement management practice. Several different methods of pavement network rehabilitation management are compared. These methods range from random selection, to worst first ranking, to different methods of optimization. The results of applying each method on a sample highway network show for the first time greatly different benefits and overall performance for the same budget expenditure. Optimization methods provided the best network performance over other methods. Different optimization methods studied provided comparable results. The unrestrained budget needs method provides a reasonable estimate of pavement rehabilitation needs however, the budget needs vary greatly from year to year. Incremental benefit-cost ratio algorithm is found to be a very efficient and practical algorithm for use in pavement management system (PMS) and is highly recommended. Vehicle miles traveled (VMT) on good pavements is recommended as an excellent objective benefit function in a network-level PMS.
