This study examines the value and need for network-level pavement deflection data to support road asset management decisions. The outcomes of the study provide critical input to decisions to undertake network-level strength assessment across…

This report has developed a new index, the Heavy Vehicle Roughness Band Index (HVRBI), as a measure of ride quality for heavy vehicles. The HVRBI is intended for use by road asset managers as a trigger to initiate pavement intervention works…

This report develops approaches that estimate the marginal cost (MC) of bridge wear for heavy vehicle usage and estimates the availability and reliability of the data needed to use these approaches. Two approaches were examined. The first was an…

This report deals with the first component of the bridge assessment tool and is a scoping study to determine whether there is sufficient data, and whether there exists suitable engineering models, to develop robust and nationally uniform technical…
