Development of a Preservation Sustainability Framework and Tool
项目名称: Development of a Preservation Sustainability Framework and Tool
摘要: Diminishing funds for transportation infrastructure projects encouraged agencies to develop and implement cost-effective preservation and rehabilitation treatments to maintain pavement serviceability while reducing the backlog in pavement network. The major philosophy of preservation suggests a long-term and cost-effective program applied to a network, not just a single project. Pavement preservation has recently gained wide acceptance among the highway agencies because of its cost-effectiveness and ability to enhance pavement performance. In addition, preservation treatments can provide additional benefits in terms of reducing the environmental impact of pavements. Unlike traditional repair and rehabilitation techniques, preservation treatments result in different cost, performance, and environmental impacts; hence, development of a preservation program for a network requires consideration of these three major determinants: cost, performance, and environmental impact.
