This book was released on 2000 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The current performance-related specifications (PRS) methodology has been under development by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for several years and has now reached a level at which it can be implemented by State highway agencies. PRS for highway pavements depend heavily on performance prediction models to determine the impact of varying levels of construction quality. This study focused on the improvement of the key distress and smoothness prediction models used in the PRS for jointed plain concrete pavement (JPCP). Performance models for transverse joint faulting, transverse slab cracking, transverse joint spalling, and smoothness (International Roughness Index [MI]) were evaluated and then improved substantially. This was accomplished using a comprehensive national database of JPCP performance data, along with sound statistical and engineering techniques. Performance model calibration guidelines were also developed so that a State cari calibrate any of these models specifically to its pavement performance data. The PaveSpec PRS demonstration software was upgraded to Version 3.0 under this study. Some of the specific improvements incorporated in PaveSpec 3.0 include: 1) incorporation ofyim proved distress indicator models, as well as the ability to calibrate or modify the default models, 2) sensitivity analysis capabilities, 3) expected pay charts, and 4) online help. Appendix A of this report contains a complete updated PaveSpec User's Guide"--Technical report documentation page

Download or read book Impact of Rainfall on Flexible Pavement Performance Models for Texas Highways written by K. M. Saifur Rahman and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the main elements of any Pavement Management System is Pavement Performance Modeling. Accurate pavement performance models can save millions of dollars through proper maintenance of the transportation pavement infrastructure. Several pavement performance models have been developed over the years to predict pavement performance. However, in the development of pavement performance models the climatic parameters were often ignored. Climatic inputs, especially rainfall, affect pavement performances because material properties change with temperature and moisture conditions particularly in ACP (Asphalt Concrete Pavement). The modulus of the unbound materials is sensitive to the variation of moisture content. Rainwater can infiltrate into the unsaturated pavement layers though cracks, joints or edges of the pavement and can deteriorate the pavement structure by reducing structural capacity. This study investigates rainfall impacts on pavement performance and maintenance costs of asphalt concrete pavement on Texas highways. Performance models are developed to accurately predict the pavement condition and performance for the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) Highway pavement network for San Antonio Districts. In addition, tools are developed to accurately estimate the future maintenance cost considering rainfall. TxDOT's PMIS data for the San Antonio Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) District was used for pavement conditions and NOAA data was used for historical rainfall information. One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was performed to determine the significant variables for the pavement performance model. The San Antonio District's road network broken into five pavement families following functional classes such as Interstate Highways (IH) main lane, Interstate Highways (IH) frontage lane, State Highways (SH), US highways (US) and Farm to Market Road (FM). The statistical modeling reported herein shows that rainfall had a significant impact on deterioration of pavement conditions of Interstate Highways (IH) for main lanes. For Interstate Highways (IH) frontage lane and Farm to Market (FM) pavement families combination of rainfall and traffic class had significant impact on the pavement performance model. Engineering knowledge supported the concept that increasing amount of rainfall will degrade the pavement structure at a faster rate. However, statistical analysis of the available data showed that rainfall did not have a significant statistical impact on the performance model of State Highway (SH) and US highways (US) pavement families. Other significant factors that affect the flexible pavement performance identified in this research for all pavement types are pavement age and previous year's distress scores. Previous maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) activities performed on a pavement section will also have a significant impact on the pavement deterioration model for pavement families except for Interstate Highway (IH) main lanes and U.S Highways (US). In this research, an application was developed to estimate the maintenance cost of the network considering the rainfall and other significant factors. This tool will allow users to accurately predict future maintenance costs and allocate appropriate budgets.

Download or read book The Rigid Pavement Database written by Terry Dossey and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rigid pavement (RP) database contains historical distress data obtained from more than 400 continuously reinforced concrete pavements (CRCP) and jointed concrete pavements (JCP) across the state of Texas. Data collection efforts began in 1974 and have been undertaken periodically up to the present. The database contents include such performance-related variables as punchouts, patches, spalling, ride score, crack spacing, and deflection basins, as well as such inventory variables as location, design thickness, coarse aggregate type, climate, soil characteristics, date of construction, and overlay status. Taken as a whole, the RP database comprises a unique asset for empirical investigation of factors affecting long-term pavement performance in Texas.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 38 (thesis year 1993) a total of 13,787 thesis titles from 22 Canadian and 164 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 38 reports theses submitted in 1993, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The KDOT Pavement Management System includes a Project Optimization System (POS). For each pavement distress, the POS requires models which predict the probability that a given distress level occurs at some time in the future. This K-TRAN project investigated the mechanistic and empirical-mechanistic models and techniques advanced in research conducted by the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) and the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP). In addition, the project specific data developed for the models were reanalyzed using SHRP sensitivity analysis and regression procedures to determine if improved models could be developed.
