Pavement Maintenance Management System

PMMS IS A TOOL THAT CAN BE USED BY DECISION MARKERS TO ANALYSE

THE COSTS AND BENEFITS OF VARIOUS FEASIBLE ALTERNATIVES

FOR EACH PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY.

DEFICIENCIES OF THE PRESENT MAINTENANCE PRACTICES IN INDIA

• MAINTENANCE NEEDS BASED ON SUBJECTIVE

JUDGEMENT

• ROUTINE MAINTENANCE NOT COORDINATED WITH

REHABILITATION

• DATA BASE NOT AVAILABLE

• NO SCIENTIFIC TOOL USED FOR DECISION MAKING

• LACK QUALITY INPUTS

• LIMITED FUNDS AVAILABLE

• Identification of Projects in Need of M&R and toEstablish Priorities

• Identification of Type of Maintenance Requirement

• Future M&R Timings

• Minimize Life-Cycle Costs and Maximize theBenefits with reduction in accident costs.

• Prediction of Pavement Performance in Future

• Further Budgetary Requirements for M&R

• Optimal Utilization of Available Resources & Effect ofneglected maintenance on the serviceability of road.

There is a need of an efficient Pavement Maintenance Management System for Road

network which would be useful to the highway agencies in planning pavement maintenance

strategies in a scientific manner to ensure rational utilization of limited maintenance funds

Development and Management of road system require huge investment which in turn requires identification of monitory resources.

Any investment decision requires full justification of the expenditure and there must be visible benefit. Hence a clear systematic technical

analysis is required before performing economic and financial analysis of the project.

HDM-4 is a reliable tool for doing systematic analysis of road projects bytesting alternative proposals both technically and economically. It requiresa series of inputs and generates a series of output (reports) for the benefitof the analyst but a major research input of calibration is required foradapting to the local conditions.

Rutting Measurement

• Rutting refers to permanent deformation on pavementsurface in the wheel path.

• Rutting is caused by structural and/or material failure thatcan lead to hazardous driving conditions

• The rut depth was measured with 2 m straight edge placedin transverse direction.

• Twelve observations randomly selected were carried outfor each road section. The maximum rut depth in mm wasnoted down in each observation.
