Survival Analysis of Fatigue Crack Initiation in Thin Asphalt Surfaces Based on In-Service Pavement Data
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper details a survival analysis of fatigue crack initiation on thin asphalt surfaces using in-service pavement data from a toll road network in southern Africa collected over a 15 to 20 year period. Assessment ...
Establishment of Quantitative Measures for Team Integration Assessment in Alliance Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ability to sustain and consistently drive integration practice is vital for alliance teams as it promotes a collaborative culture and the continuity of equitable relationships to improve project performance. An alliance ...
Derivation of Transition Probability Matrices for Pavement Deterioration Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The derivation of transition matrices has traditionally been effected using one of two methods. The standard approach is to observe, from historical data, the way in which a road network deteriorates from one year to the ...
A Fuzzy Approach to Developing Scales for Performance Levels of Alliance Team Integration Assessment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Understanding the level of team integration in alliance projects, and how it changes over time, is key to maintaining consistently high levels of integration, and therefore performance, in highly complex projects. In ...
Application of Fault Tree Analysis to Identify Moisture Damage Potential in Flexible Road Pavements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Highway engineers understand the damaging impact on the performance of the road pavement when excess water enters into the pavement. As a consequence, most pavement design and rehabilitation methods recognize the importance ...
Comparing Client Values between Business-as-Usual Construction and Postdisaster Reconstruction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The complexity and resources required for postdisaster reconstruction projects can present a formidable challenge for project participants. Exploring client values in a postdisaster situation can assist in assessing ...
