Abstract

This paper presents the development of a methodology to facilitate the pavement surface selection for low to medium volume roads. It considers the engineering design factors, such as structural capacity, performance, durability, and safety as well as non-conventional factors, including aesthetics, context compatibility, and environmental impacts. The surfacing evaluation involves, applying scoring factors and weighting factors to a series of selection attributes to identify the optimum solutions. Specific application of the developed process is also presented using information from actual sites. For the covering abstract of the conference see ITRD number E211538.
