Prioritization methods for effective airport pavement management: a Canadian case study
This paper presents a case study for airports, where the Pavement Condition Index (PCI), which has been recognized as an ASTM Standard Test Method for Airfields, has been calculated by entering the distress data of 271 sections in MicroPAVER. Current needs have been calculated and are identified for three different minimum acceptable PCI levels. In addition five treatment alternatives are analyzed based on their life cycle cost and cost effectiveness. The paper further analyzes three different methods of prioritization, using data from a Canadian airport, to assess how minimum acceptable service levels and performance impact the overall life cycle cost and prioritization. One unique method has been developed in this paper specifically for application in the Canadian environment. (a) For the covering entry of this conference, please see ITRD abstract no. E212095.
