About this course
Overview
Condition data is easy to collect and hard to turn into a decision anyone will sign. You work from survey through deterioration modelling to a prioritised programme, and on the argument you actually have to win: why this road now and that one in three years.
What you will be able to do
Learning outcomes
- Assess and record network condition
- Predict pavement deterioration
- Select appropriate treatments
- Prioritise works within a budget
- Produce a defensible maintenance programme
What the course sets out to do
Course objectives
- Collect and manage pavement condition data
