The cost of pavement maintenance keeps escalating upward as refining crude oil technology increases, a shortage of raw materials rises, and mining permits are harder to obtain. As a result, both private and public property owners and homeowners' associations will be spending more on pavement maintenance than ever before. Thomas and Patrick McDonald rely on nearly sixty years of experience in pavement construction and maintenance as well as years of research as they share practical tools and tips that will help anyone manage a successful pavement maintenance project. Through the included charts that will help determine maintenance strategies, the McDonalds guide others on how to: - Identify and repair distresses in asphalt pavement - Develop the proper scope of work, specifications, bids, and contract documents - Estimate repair costs, manage the project, and monitor job site materials - Evaluate the return on investment for repairs Designed specifically to aid in any asphalt projects for commercial properties, shopping centers, industrial properties, apartment buildings, and homeowners' associations or master communities, the Guide to Pavement Maintenance provides step-by-step leadership for anyone ready to tackle a pavement maintenance project.

The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Emphasizing sound, cost-effective management rather than emergency repairs, this comprehensive volume offers practical guidelines on evaluating and managing pavements for airports, roads, and parking lots. The author focuses on the implementation and maintenance of successful management strategies for both network and project levels, with repair techniques also described . Detailed chapters: 1) outline step-by-step procedures for project and network level pavement management 2) illustrate effective cost analysis and budget planning for pavement maintenance 3) guide the reader in the selection and use of non-destructive deflection, roughness measurement, and friction measurement equipment 4) present state-of-the-art pavement rehabilitation and condition prediction techniques 5) demonstrates the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) procedure for airfields and surfaced and unsurfaced roads. Extensive appendices serve as a field manual for identifying all types of pavement distress and their causes, and hundred of photographs facilitate accurate pavement evaluation. Civil and pavement engineers will find complete information on pavement inspection, evaluation, and management in this indispensable reference.
