Haul Road

The unpaved road network of a surface mine is extensive, comprising numerous roads of varying construction and material qualities with highly variable traffic volumes. Existing haul road maintenance management systems (MMSs) work well for predictable traffic volumes, but for complex mine road networks, the MMS becomes onerous and results in suboptimal road maintenance strategies, with the attendant increase in total road-user costs and reduction in service. A real-time MMS was thus sought to overcome the deficiencies of existing systems for mine roads. Because most large mines operate trucks with onboard diagnostic data collation, linked through a centralized communication and Global Positioning System backbone, it was proposed that road condition could be monitored on a real-time basis through onboard vibration signature analysis. A real-time mine haul road MMS was developed. Mine road maintenance practices were reviewed. The real-time system architecture was devised, and a field trial was conducted of onboard vibration signature assessment. Trial results were evaluated in the light of road defect signature recognition, analysis, signature repeatability, and system limitations. This approach is applicable to other situations, such as a network of district roads, subject to an analysis of economic feasibility. The conclusion is reached that modern technology has the potential to apply maintenance as and where needed, with possible reductions in authority cost and an improvement in service provided to road users.

An analysis based on questionnaire was conducted to study the technology of highway subgrade disaster prevention and maintenance. A serial of questions related to the subgrade maintenance management, maintenance technique, and existing problems were consulted with 39 experts from local highway administrations, highway management and maintenance centers, highway construction Co. Ltd, road maintenance companies in Guangdong Province. The investigation and analysis results provide a valuable scientific reference for further formulating “the technical specification of the highway subgrade maintenance”.

New Construction

The urban road becoming more perfect, pavement engineering is from new construction to maintenance management. The authorities, from acceptance the new construction turn into survey of the road‘s situation and control of various types of damage and road conditions on time, to maintain a good condition of the road. In this study we use the CCD with the general Global Positioning System to provide GPS coordinates and have a street shooting for each 20m of road, record of the CCD road imaging system, and with GPS coordinates, the street pavement shooting can identify the highest frequency distress type within 100m of the road, and compare with the value of IRI for statistics, considering different distress conditions associated with the International Roughness Index, and to explore the causes. This study has an Urban Road Management System, it divided into road flat index query and pavement condition index query, and user can use this system know the pavement condition every section. The road maintenance unit can be judged by this indicator status of pavement roughness to develop a conservation strategy of each section, reflecting the degree of conservation of each section, making the pavement to maintain a good quality. Urban road maintenance management system is for the each authorities built the road pavement maintenance management system for pavement managers with different levels of management authority, and to assist in the system can provide information for urban roads to do planning, query and management, it is beneficial to the authorities to implementation of urban roads and other road maintenance operations, they can immediately understand the pavement condition.

Manual Tasks

Currently urban road works has changed from new constructions to conservations, but unlike municipalities with rich resources, most road maintenance works of most townships are done by a few engineers, manually and complicated, affecting the quality and progress of road maintenance works. To this end, this study uses pavement maintenance management system, replacing parts of the manual tasks, and a standard with objective data to decide the appropriate range and conservation engineering methods, in order of increasing the efficiency.
