  • Deterioration Modelling of Granular Pavements for Rural Arterial Roads
    DETERIORATION MODELLING OF GRANULAR PAVEMENTS FOR RURAL ARTERIAL ROADS By Nahla Hussein Aswad Alaswadko Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne, Australia December 2016 ABSTRACT ABSTRACT To keep any network in service at an acceptable condition and maintain and preserve the network performance, the management system can be enhanced by models for predicting pavement conditions. Investigation into maintenance and rehabilitation of rural arterial roads is triggered when road condition reaches certain threshold levels of roughness, rutting and cracking. To assist road agencies in their long term planning, the aim of this research project is to develop powerful deterioration models for a rural arterial network, using novel approaches for data preparation and modelling. The reliability and usefulness of such models in a pavement management system stem from using accurate datasets with suitable modelling approaches. Therefore, the study’s main goal is to use a new approach for preparing accurate condition data to use in developing pavement deterioration models utilising a new modelling approach. Pavement condition parameters modelled herein, include surface roughness, rutting and cracking. To achieve the aim of this study, representative samples of highways from Victoria’s spray sealed rural network are considered. The selected sample network is from 40 highways with a combined length of more than 2,300 km. The network covers a large sample size with representative ranges of traffic loading, pavement strength, subgrade soil type and environmental factors for four road classes (M, A, B and C) which differ in quality and function.

The whole plateau is, at present, a wind­ taken (in January 1936) by the McCoy Society swept area, clothed only by vegetation knee-high for Field Investigation and Research. The McCoy at the best, and at the worst, by loose volcanic Society was founded and organized by students soil or bare rock. This denudation of forest cover of the University of Melbourne during 1935 ; and is due to human interference, for pigs were at one Lady Julia Percy Island lies off the coast of time turned down on the island, rabbits were western Victoria (38° 24' S., 142° E.). The island liberated and are still living in their thousands, is separated from the mainland by a channel some and sealers, fishermen and guano workers have cut five miles wide, and with as much as twenty down and burned the stunted and wind-blown trees that formerly covered the island. Barren, inhospitable and for­ bidding though the island now appears, it proved to be a place of the most absorbing interest. The Bass Straits, St. Vincent's and Spencer's Gulfs, and the Great Australian Bight-the whole of the southern shores of Victoria and South Australia are dotted with islands, and I have visited more than thirty of them. But Lady Julia Percy Island, off Port Fairy, in Vic­ toria, is different from all these.

    Aboriginal acknowledgement The Victorian Government proudly acknowledges Victoria’s Aboriginal community and their rich culture and pays respect to their Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge Aboriginal people as Australia’s first peoples, and as the Traditional Owners and custodians of the land on which we work and live. We recognise the strength of Aboriginal people and communities and value the ongoing contribution of Aboriginal people and communities to Victorian life, through their daily work and at key events, and how this enriches us all. We recognise all Aboriginal cultures and communities are diverse, and should be celebrated. We acknowledge that the land and water is of spiritual, cultural and economic importance to Aboriginal people. We embrace the spirit of reconciliation: guaranteeing equality of outcomes and ensuring an equal voice. We have distinct legislative obligations to Traditional Land Owner groups that are paramount in our responsibilities in managing Victoria’s resources. © The State of Victoria, Victorian Fisheries Authority, December 2017 This work is licenced under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Australia licence.

  • West Gippsland Region
    Powlett River. Courtesy WGCMA The West Gippsland region is diverse and characterised by areas of natural forest, West areas of high conservation value, fertile floodplains for agriculture, as well as having Gippsland major coal deposits and the Loy Yang, Hazelwood and Yallourn power stations. Region Three river basins form the region – Thomson (basin 25), Latrobe (basin 26) and South Gippsland (basin 27). West Gippsland Region In the north of the region is the Thomson basin, Hydrology characterised by the naturally forested Eastern Highlands. At the foot of the highlands are two major dams - Lake The hydrological condition of streams across the West Glenmaggie and the Thomson dam. Over half (55%) of Gippsland region reflects the varied land use - from natural the stream length in the Thomson basin was found to be and near natural flow regimes in headwater streams in in good or excellent condition. Of the remainder, 41% of forested areas of the region to flow regimes under immense stream length was in moderate condition and just 3% stress in areas dependent on water supply for domestic and 1% in poor and very poor condition respectively. and agricultural use. In the centre of the region is the Latrobe basin. The basin Thomson Dam provided 12,046 ML of environmental water features vast tracts of forest through the Strezlecki Ranges in 2011-12 for six reaches on the Thomson River (reaches and the Great Dividing Range, where streams rise and flow 1-5) and Rainbow Creek (reach 17) and Lake Glenmaggie to Lake Wellington in the east. Although much of the land provided 14,018 ML of environmental water to two reaches has been cleared for agriculture, the dominant land use is on the Macalister River (reaches 7 and 8).
