This report describes a two-year study designed to quantify the immediate and longer-term maintenance impact of grader blading and surface re-sheeting on unsealed roads.
The project assembled and analysed roughness data collected by Cassowary Coast…
This report provides a summary of activities completed during 2014–15 for the Austroads long term pavement performance monitoring project.
Austroads has funded the long-term pavement performance study since late 1994. The project monitors the…
This proof of concept study used the data condensation technology of stochastic information packets (SIPs) in MS Excel to allow complete storage of all collected data. This approach, when connected to a pavement management system (PMS), was able to…
Austroads Project AT1064 Long Term Performance Monitoring and Model Development was initiated in 1994/95. The project was reviewed in 2003 and later in 2007 by GP Youdale Consulting Engineers to assess the project’s program and progress and, if…
Pavement performance data, in terms of Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) deflection, was collected from 71 test sections available from the LTPP/LTPPM sites and used to develop structural deterioration models for flexible asphalt and sealed unbound…
This report documents the development of interim network level road deterioration (RD) models for the roughness, rutting and cracking of sealed granular pavements.
These RD models can be used at the network level for the strategic analysis of the…
This report looks at low-cost vehicle classifiers to provide some indication of pavement loading or gross vehicle mass (GVM). WIM equipment is relatively expensive to install and calibrate, and may not be easily installed anywhere in a road network.…
