Abstract:

This paper presents the theory, method, and application of performance-based pavement needs assessment at a state level, using the Pennsylvania Interstate System as an example. First, a general framework is presented for the pavement asset management and a general optimization model is established for the pavement maintenance and rehabilitation needs assessment. Also, the bundling of pavement segments for the project implementation is discussed. Using the examples of Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan and Long Range Transportation Plan for Pennsylvania Interstate System, the application of performance-based pavement needs assessment is demonstrated. It is shown that unconstrained analysis can help decision-makers investigate the real maintenance and rehabilitation needs; financially-constrained analysis can help decision-makers select projects for implementation and examine the corresponding future pavement conditions. Trade-off analysis can help decision-makers investigate the outcomes of different investment levels on pavement maintenance and rehabilitation and make the final decision on the investment level. The proposed case study provides a good example of performance-based pavement needs assessment for developing countries.
