We will present our initial findings and plan. Then the data will be transferred to PMS software, and all network analysis will be performed.Īfter the initial analysis, we will generate a draft report. Our engineers in the office will run statistical analysis on the collected data to assure its quality.
The collected data will be transferred to the office. This will significantly reduce the time of data entry and helps prevent possible errors. Our team collects and records the field data in accordance with the latest ASTM Standard D6433 using tablets. This will help to improve the accuracy of our data throughout the project. Moreover, at the beginning of each project, our team will calibrate their data collection method by individually collecting data on a preselected test strip (three different samples within the project) and comparing the results. Our data collection team goes through rigorous training every year to assure the quality of their work, and also to minimize the variability of their data. Random samples will then be selected for further data collection in the field. Based on the developed/updated map, our PMS team will produce a list of available sections and samples within the network. The map will be transferred to our PMS software for further analysis. Depending on the condition of the data, our GIS team will develop/update the GIS map of the agency’s network. We will also collect all available data maps to import into our database. Our Pavement Management team initially will set up a meeting to review the objectives and deliverables. They can update your existing software with the latest version, or transfer your existing database from one to another, depending on your needs.
Twining’s team is well versed on different PMS software (i.e. This information eventually will help our Pavement Management team come up with the most cost effective and practical maintenance and rehabilitation plan to address the needs of the agency in coming years. Our in-house Director of Asphalt Engineering and Pavement Design is an expert in developing life cycle models for different types of pavements with different applications to accurately estimate their remaining life. To fulfill this task, we utilize our team of pavement engineers, GIS experts, and certified inspectors, who are highly trained in collecting the network data, updating PMP and GIS databases, and developing strategic plans. We partner with cities to help develop their own pavement management program (PMP), update the inventory and strategize their approach to not only maintain their asset, but to also improve it for better quality of life of their residents. PMS is a critical tool used by agencies to plan and budget the maintenance of their most valuable asset, the network of roads.
