Abstract:

The primary objectives for Project 0-4040 were to establish the cost-effectiveness of typical and promising maintenance treatments used in Texas to prolong the life of asphalt pavements, to determine the optimum time and preventive maintenance strategies to prolong pavement life, and to demonstrate positive rates of return on preventive maintenance funds. The Supplemental Maintenance Effectiveness Research Program (SMERP) project evaluated the types of maintenance treatments typically used in Texas and allowed the contractor to use local materials.
