• Abstract:
  In the mid‐1990s, the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) initiated the Maintenance Cost ; Effectiveness study (SPR 371) with the development of plans and an experiment design to evaluate the ; effectiveness of a variety of asphalt pavement maintenance treatments. During 1999 and 2001, ADOT oversaw ; the construction of hundreds of experimental sections throughout the state under the Phase I, Wearing Course ; Experiment (nine treatments and 82 sections at three sites), and the Phase II, Preventive Maintenance ; Experiment (24 treatments and 137 sections at four sites). Work continued in 2006 and 2007 under the ; Evaluation of Maintenance Strategies study (SPR 628) for ADOT with a yearlong program of pavement ; performance monitoring involving manual pavement distress surveys and automated skid, friction, and surface ; texture measurements at all the experimental sites. The project culminated with a detailed analysis of key ; pavement performance data to compare the performance of the individual treatments and determine their ; overall effectiveness. This report documents the independent findings of both the Phase I and II experiments.
