Download or read book Use of Warranties in Road Construction written by Donn E. Hancher and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1994 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis on the use of warranties in road construction will be of interest to administrators, engineers, designers, and contractors involved with highway design and construction and the procurement process for these services. Experiences with use of warranties in Europe and the United States are cited and the potential impacts, benefits, and concerns of using warranties in the United States are identified. Actions needed to facilitate the use of warranties for highway projects in the United States are also discussed. The use of warranties in road construction is relatively widespread in the European highway industry compared to practice in the United States, where use has been limited. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the various methods used in Europe for highway industry warranties and identifies the issues that need to be addressed before construction warranties can be translated to U.S. practice. Recent congressional proposals call for the use of warranties to be allowed on federal-aid highway projects. This has caused varied reactions from the parties involved in the design and construction of highways, resulting in a General Accounting Office study on methods for improving the quality of federal-aid highways, including the use of warranties. Ultimately, the owner will have to decide whether to use warranties in highway construction projects. Some of the potential benefits and concerns of using warranties, plus needed actions for successful implementation are presented in this synthesis, which is considered a snapshot of the issues at the time of publication.

Book Synopsis An Evaluation of the Cost-Effectiveness of Warranty Contracts in Indiana by : Priyanka Singh

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a bid to ensure cost-effective highway construction practices, highway agencies constantly seek ways to accelerate project design and delivery through implementation of innovative contracting and procurement practices. The concept of warranties, which is one of such promising practices, involves a shift of the burden of construction quality control, product performance and product maintenance from the owner to the contractor. As such, warranty projects are expected to enhance product quality and service life, and ultimately, reduced life-cycle cost. The expected benefits of warranty projects, however, could be offset by their historically higher construction costs. It is therefore necessary to evaluate the costs and benefits of warranty contracts vis-à-vis traditional contracts so that the more cost-effective practice can be identified. The present study reviewed the state of warranty practice in highway pavement construction in Indiana and elsewhere, collects data on warranty and traditional contracts, and carried out statistical analyses to evaluate the relative costs, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of these two alternative contracting practices. Effectiveness was measured in terms of average pavement condition and pavement service life, and costs were expressed in annualized costs per lane-mile. All costs were adjusted for inflation and economy of scale. The study confirmed that the warranty contracts generally have higher agency costs than traditional contracts, but produced pavements that were superior to their traditional counterparts in terms in average pavement condition (rutting, cracking and roughness) and service life. It was determined that the typical projected treatment life of warranty contract pavement was 25 years while similar traditional contract pavements had a service life of 15 years. The study results suggest that the superiority of warranty projects over traditional projects is more discernible when both cost and effectiveness are viewed over the entire life of the pavement treatment.
