KUBA 4.0: The Swiss Road Structure Management System
KUBA is a comprehensive road structure management system developed for the Swiss Federal Roads Authority. KUBA is similar to other state-of-the-art management systems but has numerous distinctive characteristics. It consists of four components, a road structure inventory (KUBA-DB), a preservation planning tool (KUBA-MS), a reporting tool (KUBA-RP), and a heavyweight transport evaluation tool (KUBA-ST). This paper discusses the first two components in detail and gives a brief outline of the latter two. Following a presentation of road structures on the Swiss National Road System, the paper discusses the overall preservation planning framework including the collection of inspection and performed preservation intervention data, and the application of the deterioration history assessment module for assigning elemental preservation interventions. Finally, the paper outlines further development steps and related research.
