NEVADA'S APPROACH TO PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT
The Nevada Department of Transportation has a fully implemented pavement management system (PMS) at the network level and an extensive pavement evaluation system at the project level. Both systems use actual field performance data that are collected annually from pavement sections throughout the state. The PMS is being further developed to incorporate performance modeling, life-cycle cost analysis, and network optimization processes. Once fully developed the system will allow the engineer to select the best rehabilitation and maintenance alternative that can carry the pavement over the entire analysis period. The project-level evaluation process includes the use of nondestructive testing data and condition surveys from the PMS. The overall systems are summarized at both levels, and the individual steps that are involved within each system are described.
