Computer Simulation Model: Construction Analysis for Pavement Rehabilitation Strategies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most state highways in the United States were built during the 1960s and 1970s with an infrastructure investment of more than $1 trillion. They now exceed their
Planning Urban Highway Reconstruction with Traffic Demand Affected by Construction Schedule
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper introduces an integrated approach to the development of construction and traffic management plans for the reconstruction of high-volume urban freeways. The Devore project, which rebuilds a 4.2 km stretch of the ...
State-of-Practice Technologies on Accelerated Urban Highway Rehabilitation: I-15 California Experience
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This case study paper presents an innovative fast-track approach applied to a heavily trafficked urban freeway reconstruction project in Southern California. Badly deteriorated truck lanes in both directions along a
Method for Predicting Raw Material Prices for Product Production over Long Periods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A construction company may invest capital and participate in a special purpose company (SPC) for financing a plant project if high profitability is expected from product production after completion. Thus, the construction ...
Minimizing Total Cost for Urban Freeway Reconstruction with Integrated Construction/Traffic Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper introduces an innovative approach to development of construction and traffic management plans for the I-15 Devore project, a fast-track urban freeway reconstruction project with high traffic volume in Southern ...
Implementation of Automated Travel-Time Information and Public Reaction on Urban Highway Rehabilitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Transportation agencies are becoming more aware of the seriousness of traffic delay caused by urban freeway rehabilitation and are experimenting with the use of intelligent transportation systems to control traffic demand ...
Integrated Design/Construction/Operations Analysis for Fast-Track Urban Freeway Reconstruction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The California Department of Transportation is rehabilitating or reconstructing deteriorated urban freeways using long-life (30+ years) strategies. These pavements were constructed between 1955 and 1970 with design lives ...
Fast-Track Urban Freeway Rehabilitation with 55-H Weekend Closures: I-710 Long Beach Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As an asphalt concrete demonstration project implemented under the California Department of Transportation’s Long-Life Pavement Rehabilitation Strategies program, a 4.4 km stretch of Interstate-710 (I-710) in Long Beach ...
Geographic Information System–Based Framework for Estimating and Visualizing Unit Prices of Highway Work Items
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Historical bid items from previous projects are an important source of data for project cost estimation. State highway agencies have widely used this data source for budget planning of highway projects. Current practices ...
