Evaluation of PCCP Performance Based on Fuzzy Complex Matter Element Method
Publication: Performance Modeling and Evaluation of Pavement Systems and Materials: Selected Papers from the 2009 GeoHunan International Conference
Abstract
The performance evaluation of Portland cement concrete pavement (PCCP) is the key step in its maintenance, rehabilitation and overlay. A new evaluation index system was put forward considering the needs of PCCP overlay, based on the traditional evaluation index system, whose aim is mainly at maintenance. A systematic pavement performance evaluation model was established by using the fuzzy complex matter element method, and the weight of each factor was determined considering its objective and subjective weights, determined from Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method and entropy method respectively. Finally, the pavement performance of a test road was evaluated using this method, and the evaluation result agrees with the actual pavement condition.
