• Abstract:
  The synthesis study focused on pavement preparatory work performed before preventive maintenance (PM) surfacing contracts with the goal of answering, “What work needs to be performed to the roadway before a new surface is placed?” Preparatory work performed by in-house maintenance forces or maintenance contracts may include crack sealing, fog seal, repairs, milling, and level-up and should be performed well in advance of the PM contract. Both flexible and rigid pavements may require work in advance of a PM contract. Seal coats or thin overlays are typical PM surfacing projects.
