This report provides a new theoretical framework for location, location reference methods and location referencing systems. This project proposes a new Primary Location Reference System designed to support an Austroads Building Information…

This report compares the Austroads Data Standard with buildingSMARTS’s IFC4 and Uniclass 2015. All are works in progress.

The Data Specifications Inventory of 32 object classes within Austroads’ draft standard (Draft 2 Version 2 which is to be…

This report examines the capacity of the extra-large wheel-tracking laboratory test method to predict the in-service performance of granular materials.

Rutting is a common distress mode of unbound granular bases under thin bituminous surfacings.

Five…

Austroads is developing an Australasian Data Standard for Roads, that seeks to harmonise transport information across road agencies and local government in Australia and New Zealand. This webinar explains how the Data Standard is designed, the data…

This report provides a methodology to establish an Australian (and potentially a New Zealand) weigh?in?motion (WIM) network.

The Data Standard for Road Management and Investment is being developed to provide Australian and New Zealand road agencies and their suppliers with a common approach to the specification of operational data.

The Standard will establish agreed…

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…

Recent developments in computer technology combined with the advent of data condensation technologies have opened new ways to analyse and explore data.

This report details an exploratory use of a full set of time series rutting data from a long-term…

The report documents the development of a harmonised approach to road condition data management by Austroads member agencies.

It outlines the results of consultation with member agencies which considered principles, methods, specifications and their…

This report documents research to validate the wheel-tracking approach as a complementary means of evaluating the rutting performance of granular bases. Firstly, the influence of the moisture content on the laboratory wheel-tracking performances is…
