Smart estimation of automatic approach in enhancing the road safety under AASHTO Standard specification and STM

Abstract

In this study, new development was debated as a logical method for increasing the road safety under regional classification of AL-Zahir neighbourhood. Owing this, during this experimental study; some measurements have been accomplished and introduced as Project I and II under AASHTO standards. The main purpose of these two levels of projects would be introducing the three parts of stages for each project. Reports of project I and II describe the numerous stages of experimental project. The first stage was done for Project I that included selection of the study area, dividing the study area to four Zones, collection the data required for evaluation the present status of asphalt pavement condition depending on the type, severity, and extent of distress, first strategy; Application of current maintenance requirements. Furthermore, a maintenance strategy after 10 years would be best way for maintenancing after 10 years next to the previous strategy and at last, a maintenance strategy after 20 years direct.
