چکیده

In developing countries, large sums of money are spent annually to enhance and maintain road networks as allocated by authorities. The need users in most countries all over the world is have safe, economic, smooth roads despite pressure on authorities further reduce expenditure. Money allocation for infrastructure among many priorities competing government funds, thus causing pressure. objective this thesis was evaluate performance Thika-Magumu road, identify defects pavement, finally find best remedy established. This done visual inspection, which inspected photographs taken. Surface regularity tests were carried out determine extent ruts road. Roughness measurement roughness PSR verify rating deflection measured using FWD traffic analysis axle loading effect pavement. There different types pavement distress that enhanced cost maintenance such a pothole crack. usefulness research findings it gave guide process prolong life span hence reducing replace also finding used assist budgeting

Neural Networks in Stereo Vision Evaluation of Road Pavement Condition

This study presents the method for the measurement of road pavement condition based on a stereo vision method of surface representation. The road is represented as a set of points in 3D space. Problems of stereo vision analysis regarding the ambiguity of matching points images, discontinuity depth for neighboring objects registered on the images, etc. were redacted by used neural networks. The ...

Automated Winter Road Maintenance Using Road Surface Condition Measurements

Real-time measurement of tire-road friction coefficient is extremely valuable for winter road maintenance operations and can be used to optimize the kind and quantity of the deicing and anti-icing chemicals applied to the roadway. In this project, a wheel based tire-road friction coefficient measurement system is first developed for snowplows. Unlike a traditional Norse meter, this system is ba...

The Effect of Speed Humps on Highways Pavement Condition

Speed humps used as a tool of traffic calming technique that applied to force drivers to reduce their vehicle’ speeds at some locations. For developed countries, the implementations of speed humps are often used within residential areas as well as at locations of schools crossing.  For developing countries (e.g. Iraq), speed humps are used even at urban and urban highways.   This paper investig...
