    (KHA)

    received authorization

    from

    the

    City

    of Pittsfield

    (City)

    to

    with the development

    of a

    pavement

    management

    program

    for

    the City's roadway network. The

    project

    of

    a

    roadway

    pavement

    inventory,

    an assessment

    of existing

    pavement

    conditions,

    andthe

    preparation

    of

    a

    :gF{VQment

    management

    program

    for

    the 858 roadways

    within

    the

    City.

    The

    pavement

    management

    program

    is

    part

    of

    effort, which

    consists of the

    preparation

    of

    pavement

    condition assessments and

    prioritized pavement

    activities.

    The

    results

    of

    this study will be used

    by the

    City for future fiscal

    of

    the

    goals

    of this

    program

    is to

    develop

    conceptual,

    network-wide

    work

    software,

    out

    as

    Cart6Graph,

    was

    utilized

    to assist in

    generating

    the work

    plans.

    This

    program

    can be

    easily

    5'.gstomized

    to

    fit the requirements and

    philosophies

    of the

    City, as they

    may

    change

    in

    future

    years.

    This

    pavement

    i:.gJdiligement

    approach and acceptable

    operation conditions

    were developed with

    The

    City of Pittsfield

    Engineering

    ,

    staff

    fi-[

    $tnategy

    The

    basic

    philosophy

    of

    pavement

    management

    is

    to

    apply

    preventive

    maintenance

    treatments

    at appropriate

    times

    to retard

    the rate of

    pavement

    deterioration.

    Both

    preventative

    maintenance

    and

    rehabilitation techniques

    should

    be

    applied

    at

    times when they are

    cost-effective instead

    of

    letting the

    pavement

    deteriorate

    to

    failure, which

    requires

    more expensive

    reconstruction.

    Accordingly,

    the

    pavement

    management

    strategy used

    for

    the

    City's

    program

    follows

    this same

    philosophy.

    The

    city has

    been

    following to

    some

    degree

    in

    previous

    years

    this cost

    effective

    approach

    with

    thegiven

    budget

    and contract constraints.

    This modified

    strategy utilizes

    an expanded

    and

    more aggressive

    program

    of

    repairs that combines

    preventative

    maintenance,

    rehabilitation, and

    reconstruction,

    where

    necessary,

    is targeted.

    Numerous

    studies have shown that

    a

    strategy of only

    reconstruction of

    failed

    pavements,

    or reconstruction

    of

    pavements

    that do

    not require it, will cost

    significantly

    more

    than

    this

    combined

    approach

    throughout

    a defined

    analysis

    period.

    The

    reason

    forthis is

    that

    properly

    applied

    preventive

    maintenance

    and

    rehabilitation

    treatments

    effectively

    extend

    the

    life of

    the

    pavement.

    When this approach

    is

    applied on

    a network-wide

    level,

    it

    frees up

    a

    considerable

    portion

    of the budget

    to spend

    on these

    cost-effective

    strategies that

    may

    have

    previously

    been

    dedicated

    to reconstruction

    of

    a

    much smaller

    percentage

    of

    the

    pavement

    network.

    The

    pavement

    condition

    prediction

    model,

    Cart6Graph,

    requires

    a

    significant

    amount

    of input

    information'

    Some

    of

    the

    input factors

    were easily

    defined, whereas

    others

    required

    some assumptions

    and

    interpretation

    of

    related

    technical

    data.

    Changes to

    any of the technical

    inputs or parameters

    will

    affect

    the

    results

    of the

    analysis. The inputs

    were

    selected

    based on

    field

    results, input

    from

    City

    staff,

    and engineering

    judgement.

    The

    program

    has

    the

    potential

    to be modified

    in

    the

    future

    to

    account

    for

    changing

    goals,

    varying budgets,

    or

    altering

    management

    philosopies

    as

    requested

    by the

    City. The following

    sections

    descibe

    the

    key inputs

    is the

    pavement deterioration

    curve that

    is

    Atypical

    pavement

    deterioration

    curve,

    shown

    in Figure

    L

    below,

    demonstrates

    how

    the deterioration

    rate

    can

    depending

    on

    the

    Pavement

    Condition

    lndex

    (PCl)throughout

    the

    life-cycle

    of a

    pavement

    segment.

    ln the

    case

    of the

    City's

    study,

    since the

    OCI

    is

    rated

    based on the

    surface distresses

    and defects

    noted duringthe

    roadway

    investigations, the

    PCI

    is

    directly

    related to

    the OCI condjtion.

    Deterioration

    rates are

    also

    dependent

    upon

    several

    otherfactors

    including, but not limited

    to:

    original

    section

    design,

    quality

    of

    original

    construction,

    subgrade

    traffic loadings, climate,

    and

    the

    quality

    and extent

    of the maintenance

    program

    in

    place.

    Pavement

    deterioration

    can

    fluctuate

    significantly depending

    on these

    factors.

    As

    reaches

    the

    critical

    range, loadings,

    moisture

    intrusion,

    and

    Pavement deterioration

    follows a

    curve

    with

    a

    critical

    PCI

    range that

    is

    generally

    considered

    to

    be

    between

    a modified

    PASER

    OCI

    rating

    of

    75

    and

    57 on

    the

    curue.

    The

    "Critical Point" of 57 on

    the

    curve

    is considered

    the threshold

    where

    preventative maintenance

    measures

    become

    less

    cost-effective.

    Some

    form

    of

    rehabilitation

    is

    required

    forthe

    pavement

    to

    restore serviceability

    when

    pavement

    falls below

    the Critical

    Point

    and

    typically

    requires

    more

    costly

    repair. Upon

    further

    deterioration,

    the end

    of

    the

    useful

    life

    is

    reached

    when

    the

    pavement

    is

    considered

    to

    be

    a

    safety

    hazard.

    At this

    point,

    more costly

    and extensive

    reconstruction

    repairs are

    required

    to

    restore

    the service

    condition.

    For the

    City of Pittsfield. a

    modified

    PASER

    OCI rating of

    10 is typically

    viewed

    as

    the

    end

    of the

    pavement's

    useful life,

    however, some

    roadways

    were

    evaluated

    in

    Pittsfield

    to

    be at this

    point

    and

    are still serviceable

    since

    these were

    areas that

    were utilized

    by only

    a

    few

    homeowners.

    basis

    the most

    cost-effective

    repairs

    relative

    to

    the

    type

    and extent

    of

    distresses.

    When

    the

    network-wide

    average

    OCI is

    significantly higher

    than the

    approximate

    Critical Point

    of

    57

    on

    while

    where needed.

    a

    stafting

    with the

    first

    2 digits

    representing

    the

    Ward

    of

    This includes

    the second

    didgit

    lf

    and North to

    South,

    For

    example,

    the

    The

    pavement

    management

    program

    develops

    a

    conceptual,

    network-wide

    work

    plan

    to

    help

    predicl

    future

    repairs

    and

    funding

    needs

    for

    the network.

    The

    work

    plan

    utilizes

    a budget

    based

    on the City's

    projected

    funding allocations,

    andthen

    distributes

    the funds for

    preventative

    maintenance,

    rehabilitation,

    and

    reconstruction

    repairs

    based

    on

    the

    input

    parameters

    for each

    pavement

    segment.

    Cart6Graph

    reevaluates

    each segment

    in

    every

    year

    of the

    plan.

    For

    each

    year

    a

    current

    OCI

    condition

    is

    determined

    based

    on

    the

    appropriate

    deterioration

    curves and any repairs

    that

    may

    have

    been

    assigned

    to

    a

    segment

    in

    a

    previous

    plan year.

    The

    system

    then

    prioritizes

    the

    overall network to

    determine

    which

    segments

    receive

    funding

    total

    City budget

    recently

    has been in the range

    of 2

    to

    5

    million dollars

    per year.

    Per

    discussions with City staff, and

    based

    on the

    existing

    budget

    information, an

    annual budget

    of 2.1

    dollars was used

    to

    analyze

    a

    fixed budget senario.

    Flve

    was

    determined

    to be an appropriate

    analysis duration. lt

    was determined

    that

    a

    five-year

    work

    plan

    could

    provide

    the

    City

    with

    a future

    projection

    that

    was

    realistic

    and had a long

    enough

    duration

    to

    observe network

    trends.

    As

    with

    any

    model

    that

    makes future

    projections,

    the

    results

    become

    more conceptual the further

    into the

    future

    projections

    are

    made,

    The

    target

    overall network

    OCI

    for

    the

    City

    was set at

    50

    after

    reviewing

    with the City of Pittsfiled

    to determine

    an

    acceptable

    and realistic

    target which

    is

    below the

    critical

    point (57).

    ln a

    network

    with

    an

    average overall OCI

    of

    58,

    the

    majority

    of

    the work

    will

    be

    rehabilitation,

    with

    some

    preventative maintenance

    and occasional

    reconstruction

    type of

    repairs.

    Cart6Graph also

    has

    the ability

    to

    adjust

    the inflation and interest rates for

    the

    plan period.

    For

    the

    City's roadway

    analysis,

    the interest rate

    was

    set to

    zero, assuming

    a

    loan

    will

    not

    be

    taken out for

    the

    repairs,

    and

    the inflation

    rate

    was

    set a|2,0%

    to

    account

    for the

    increase

    in

    repair activity

    costs

    in

    future

    To

    the order

    in which

    a

    The

    parameter

    for

    priority

    is

    based

    on OCI for the NPR,

    giving

    the lowest

    OCI

    conditioned

    pavements

    the

    highest

    priority

    for

    repair,

    a

    "Worst

    First" scenario that

    the

    City

    does

    not

    want to

    target since enough

    money

    will

    not

    exist to

    rehabilitate

    roads

    with

    this approach.

    The

    advantage

    to

    using

    the worst

    first

    scenario

    is that it

    prevents

    pavement

    from deteriorating

    too low.

    The disadvantage

    is that

    repairs may

    not

    be

    identified

    at

    the

    earliest

    time

    possible

    in the

    life cycle.

    The

    OCI

    parameter

    is

    giving

    a

    value

    of

    100 minus

    the OCl. Therefore

    a

    low

    OCI

    of

    14

    would equal

    an

    OCI

    parameter

    value

    of

    85 and

    then factored into

    the

    NPR

    for

    selection of

    segments

    to

    be

    repaired

    at

    a

    weight of

    10

    times

    relative to the additional

    parameters

    included

    in

    the

    NPR.

    ln

    order to

    prevent

    pavement

    segments

    from

    dropping beyond

    acceptable OCI

    levels, repair

    strategy budgets

    were

    developed

    to

    promote

    more balanced

    prioritization

    practices

    in

    the

    program.

    Defining

    separate repair strategy

    budget

    categories

    also helps

    assure

    that

    the

    appropriate funding

    levels are

    being applied

    to

    areas of

    in

    a

    cost-

    effective

    way

    as the

    most

    important

    goal

    in

    performing

    the

    The

    is

    based

    The

    next step

    in

    developing

    the

    work

    plans

    was

    to determine

    the

    appropiate

    activities

    at each

    point

    in

    a

    pavement's

    life

    and the

    cost

    associated

    with

    that

    repair.

    Repair

    activities

    and

    associated

    costs

    were determined

    from

    The

    repair

    activities

    used

    in

    the

    plan

    (see

    Table

    11)

    are

    intended

    to

    increase

    the

    pavement

    life

    expectancy.

    Repairs

    in

    the

    preventative

    maintenance

    category,

    such

    as

    crack

    sealing

    and

    surface

    sealing,

    are

    intended

    to retard

    the

    deterioration

    of

    the

    pavement,

    as

    opposed

    to

    dramatically

    increasing

    the

    pavement

    condition.

    Although

    rehabilitation

    or

    reconstruction

    will

    be

    needed

    eventually,

    the

    preventative

    maintenance

    activities

    provide

    the

    most

    eost-effective

    wayto

    increase

    life-expectancy.

    Once a

    pavement

    reaches

    the

    point

    where

    rehabilitation

    repairs

    are

    reguired,

    the

    associated

    costs

    rise at

    an increasing

    rate.

    Repairs

    such

    as

    cut and

    patching,

    overlays,

    and

    partial-depth

    milling and

    replacement

    increase

    the

    pavement

    condition

    rating

    and

    extend

    the life

    significantly,

    but at

    a

    greater

    cost

    than

    applying

    preventative

    maintenance.

    The

    repairs associated

    with reconstruction

    are

    the

    most extreme

    scenario.

    They

    essentially

    start

    the

    life-cycle

    over

    by increasing

    the

    condition

    rating

    to

    100,

    but at

    the highest

    expense,

    The

    effectsof

    different

    repairs

    on the

    pavement

    life-expectancy

    are shown

    in Table

    11, below,

    This

    information

    was

    obtained

    from

    the

    Federal Highway

    Administration; it

    gives

    time

    ranges

    for

    the

    benefits to

    the

    pavement, not

    for

    the

    treatments

    themselves,

    lt

    is important

    to

    understand

    that

    these are

    estimated

    values,

    as

    the actual

    gains

    depend

    on

    numerous

    factors

    such

    as

    original

    construction quality,

    varying

    traffic

    loadings,

    sub-grade

    and

    Pavement

    repair

    activities

    were

    developed

    for

    planning

    and

    budgeting purposes.

    The

    type

    of

    repair activity

    is

    chosen

    based

    on

    the

    OCI

    and pavement

    surface

    type.

    For example,

    an

    "AC-50"

    repair

    activity

    is

    applied

    if

    the

    segment

    is

    asphalt

    (as

    opposed

    to

    concrete)

    and

    the

    ocl

    falls

    within

    the

    range

    of

    45 and

    54, since

    the

    activities

    are

    intended

    to

    address

    multiple

    segments

    that

    may fall

    into

    a

    particular

    ocl

    range

    due

    to varying

    distresses,

    they

    are

    setup to

    account

    for

    multiple

    repair

    actions

    instead

    of a

    single

    action for

    one

    particular

    distress,

    For example,

    an

    ,,AC-40,,

    activity

    likely

    consists

    of

    a

    partial-depth

    mill and replace

    of

    the

    asphalt

    surface

    throughout

    a segments

    entire

    area.

    However,

    before

    maintenance

    is

    performed

    on

    a

    specific

    segment,

    a

    detailed evaluation

    of

    this segment

    needs

    to

    be

    performed'

    Based

    on this

    project-level

    analysis,

    it

    may be

    determined

    that

    an

    alternative

    approach

    such

    as isolated

    patching

    with

    a

    thick

    asphalt

    overlay

    is

    more

    desirable

    based

    on

    field

    conditions.

    Further

    detail

    for

    specific

    repairs

    on

    each

    segment

    will

    be

    determined

    on

    a

    yearly

    basis

    in

    the

    project-level

    analysis

    and subsequent

    design

    process.

    some

    repair

    types

    are intended

    to

    repeat

    on

    a normal

    schedule,

    but

    are not

    necessary

    year

    after

    year;

    particularly

    those

    associated

    with

    preventative

    maintenance.

    For

    example,

    crack

    filling

    segments

    on a

    periodic

    basis,

    such

    as

    every

    few

    years,

    is

    typically

    recommended.

    These

    general

    repair

    activities

    were

    created for

    each

    pavement

    surface

    type

    throughout

    the

    condition

    spectrum,

    The

    only

    exceptions

    are for

    pavements

    with

    an

    OCI

    above

    g5, pavements

    with

    these ratings

    generally

    require

    no

    action

    be

    taken

    because they

    are
