ABSTRACT

This study developed a priority-based optimisation model for Pavement Management Systems (PMS) using Pavement Surface Evaluation and Ratings (PASER) for city roads. By synchronising the available budgets and pavement conditions, the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) ensures that with a limited annual budget, the overall pavement condition is optimised. Factors used to develop the CIP include: budget, road length, road classification, PASER, and treatment types. The optimisation methodology used in this study selects the best set of projects to complete while maximising the budget and weighted average PASER. The methodology used in this study were tested using the city of Fort Wayne, Indiana as a case study.

摘要

这项研究开发了基于优先级的路面管理系统（PMS）优化模型，该模型使用了城市道路的路面评估和等级（PASER）。通过同步可用的预算和铺装条件，基本建设计划（CIP）确保在年度预算有限的情况下优化整体铺装条件。用于制定CIP的因素包括：预算，道路长度，道路分类，PASER和处理类型。本研究中使用的优化方法选择了最佳的项目集，同时最大化了预算和加权平均PASER。本研究中使用的方法论以印第安纳州韦恩堡市为例进行了测试。
