  • Title Determination of the Intervention Point for Rehabilitation of Dense
    Title Determination of the intervention point for rehabilitation of dense graded asphalt wearing courses – the Western Australian Experience. Author Martyn Glover BSc MBA FIPWEA MIEAust Abstract The key to effective asset management of a road pavement, is the determination of an appropriate intervention point when replacing the asphalt wear course. An important tool in this exercise is the deterioration curve or prediction model for the pavement’s point of rapid decline in condition. The sand sub‐grades of the Perth metropolitan area in Western Australia provide some of the best road pavement foundations in the world. When combined with Perth’s Mediterranean climate without any freeze/thaw it is considered that these road pavements have much longer life spans than roads elsewhere in Australia and the world. The published deterioration models for road pavements and the wear courses from around the world have been traditionally used in pavement management systems that are available in Western Australia but in most cases they do not reflect the actual deterioration of the pavement. This paper presents the final findings of a significant study in the Perth Western Australia which develops the deterioration curve based on nearly 10,000 kilometres of pavement monitored in some cases for in excess of 100 years and reconciled against recent ARRB pavement testing. Introduction In Western Australia there has been minimal research on the optimum intervention point for replacing dense graded asphalt wear courses. This has been in part due to our isolation but mainly due to Perth’s meteorology and geology which is very conducive to long lasting and very economic road pavements.
