Preseal Repair Area

Overview

Parameters held in under the preseal_effective lookup set define the relative percentage of the total area that is estimated to require Heavy Maintenance as part of Pre-Seal repairs (in the case of Chipsealed pavements) or Heavy Maintenance (in the case of Asphalt surfaced pavements).

This lookup is essentially a table that converts the Pavement Distress Index to a fraction of the total element area that will be assigned heavy maintenance.

Lookup Set Key

The key to identify this set in the model code is ‘preseal_effective’ (case-sensitive)

Change Level

Parameters held under the preseal_effective lookup set generally do NOT need to be modified for each network.

Lookup Parameters

Parameters contained in this lookup set are detailed below. Note that parameter keys are case-sensitive.

setting_key setting_value comment
0 0.00 Assign 0 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 0
10 0.05 Assign 0.05 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 10
20 0.10 Assign 0.1 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 20
30 0.15 Assign 0.15 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 30
40 0.20 Assign 0.2 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 40
50 0.30 Assign 0.3 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 50
60 0.40 Assign 0.4 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 60
70 0.50 Assign 0.5 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 70
80 0.70 Assign 0.7 of the total area for Heavy Maintenance if PDI (% Structural Distress) is 80
Important

Values shown under the column ‘setting_value’ are defaults/example values. You should take responsibility to understand and modify these values for each project based on your specific network configuration.
