RISTotal-Package-Prioritization Mitigation Strategy for Deferred Maintenance of a Campus-Sized Institution
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Deferred maintenance (DeM) backlogs can accelerate facility deterioration, which can cause buildings to reach demolition conditions prematurely. Although higher-education institutions allocate DeM costs to the budget, they ...
Economic Impact Assessment of Severe Weather–Induced Power Outages in the US
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Every year power outages affect millions of people. In the US, historical data show that between 2000 and 2016, 75% of outages (in terms of duration) were caused by severe weather events. The National Association of ...
Suitability of Intelligent Compaction for Asphalt Pavement Quality Control and Quality Assurance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Intelligent compaction (IC) is an emerging technology that can be applied to improve the compaction of hot mix asphalt (HMA). This study investigated the applicability of IC technology for the quality control (QC) and/or ...
Crack Assessment Using Cascade Mask R-CNN and Dilation–Erosion Processing Technique
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Numerous studies have combined deep learning with image-based inspection to identify structural cracks. Some studies included the areas around the cracks in their labeling, requiring preprocessing for accurate quantification. ...
Verification and Validation Framework for Purdue Index for Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The Purdue index for construction (Pi-C) was previously developed to facilitate and promote data-driven decision-making. Pi-C is an analytical platform that allows stakeholders and decision makers to measure the current ...
Purdue Index for Construction Analytics: Prediction and Forecasting Model Development
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The Purdue Index for Construction (Pi-C) was developed to gauge the health of the construction industry. It is a composite index consisting of five dimensions: economic, stability, social, development, and quality. This ...
Vulnerability Heatmapping in Debris Management
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Debris generated and left in the wake of a disaster is one of a community’s greatest obstacles in the ability to restore function. The objectives of this paper are (1) to provide systematic procedures to develop and ...
Systematic Decision-Making Process for Composite Pavement Maintenance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The assessment of pavement condition rating (PCR) for hot mix asphalt (HMA) surfaces and exposed portland cement concrete (PCC) in composite pavements is an important component of the decision-making process for treating ...
Development of Systematic Mitigation Strategy Utilizing Computer-Based Guidelines for Reflective Cracking
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Composite pavements currently are the most prevalent pavement type for highway rehabilitation projects in the US. However, composite pavements are susceptible to pavement distresses inherent in hot-mix asphalt (HMA) pavement ...
Identification of Metrics for the Purdue Index for Construction Using Latent Dirichlet Allocation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The construction industry is one of the most significant contributors to the growth of the US economy as well as the global market. The Purdue Index for Construction (Pi-C) was developed in the form of a composite index ...
