Factors that influence the benefit are: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. type of pavement (determines which decay curve to use); <br />. age of pavement (affects the PCI increase); <br />. type of maintenance proposed (affects the PCI increase); and <br />. cost of the proposed maintenance (affects the cost/benefit ratio). <br /> <br />In most cases, the maximum benefit or extension of pavement life may be provided by <br />some combination of maintenance procedures as opposed to using one type of <br />maintenance, since combining maintenance techniques often provides larger increases <br />in the PCI. The benefit of performing each type of maintenance is then divided by the <br />calculated cost to determine the cost/benefit ratio of each alternative. Note that there <br />are limiting conditions that may prohibit a procedure from being selected such as lack of <br />funding or minimal PCI increase for the selected maintenance procedure. <br /> <br />Prioritized Work Plan <br />Maintenance and repair work can be prioritized in a number of ways. Pavements in the <br />worst condition can be fixed first. Pavements in the best condition can be fixed first. An <br />optimal prioritization method distributes funding between the preventive maintenance of <br />"good" to "excellent" pavements; the rehabilitation of "fair" to "poor" pavements; and, the <br />reconstruction of "very poor" or "failed" pavements. Pavement sections within the Arden <br />Hills pavement network were prioritized for maintenance and repair according to an <br />optimal prioritization plan. <br /> <br />. <br />
