Airfield Pavement Management Framework using a Multi-Objective Decision Making Process

Airfield Pavement Management collects data of structural condition such as fatigue cracking and rutting. However, important factors affect the safety of aircraft operations including non-structural distresses of low friction and surface distortion are missing in the data collection process. The goal of this research is to develop a decision-making framework for airfield pavement using multi-objective decision-making technique, which considers important criteria of extended pavement life, cost, safety, and sustainability into the evaluation metrics. It is an improvement to the current practice in airfield pavement management system and can result in more durable and sustainable airfield pavement in long term. The framework will be flexible to meet different needs of airport authority to make sound decisions in choosing investment options.
