Abstract

Road infrastructure is important for societal and economic development; therefore, it is crucial to maintain the durability and safety of the pavements. The present study investigates the domain of pavement maintenance by thoroughly analyzing the factors affecting the quality of pavement considering diverse groups of stakeholders. The study explored various flexible pavement defects (distress factors i.e., potholes, alligator cracks, longitudinal cracks, transverse cracks, hungry surfaces, streaking, shoving, rutting, and raveling). The opinions of stakeholders from various sectors such as public, private, and academia are collected through surveys, interviews, and detailed discussions. The collected data is analyzed using advanced statistical tools such as analysis of variance (ANOVA), post hoc test, criticality index, and Spearman rank correlation, which revealed patterns and correlations between stakeholder views. This study highlights diverse perspectives on pavement distress factors, providing valuable insights into the decision-making process. The findings of this research will help policymakers prioritize pavement maintenance based on the prevailing distresses, highlighting the importance of informed decision-making in pavement maintenance and management practices.

Abstract

A past study of 25 years reveals the positive impact of lean principles on highway pavement productivity. This bibliometric review extracted 389 papers from the Scopus database that revolved around three terms, “lean principles,” “highway pavement,” and “productivity improvement,” and used VOSviewer for scientometric analysis and scientific mapping. Study reveals that addressing this topic on a global scale is of chief significance, given the potential variations in indices of the issue across different countries or provinces. This research undertakes a comprehensive qualitative analysis that highlights diverse indicators that exert influence on the productivity of pavements. Additionally, this analysis also seeks to propose potential avenues for future research within lean construction. An intensive investigation provides four unique clusters of words that have been formed through the process of keyword science mapping within the context of the lean principles, which are road segment, techniques, productivity improvement, and lean. Last but not least, 4 pointers are recommended that will help stakeholders and policymakers assess pavement performance practices, identify areas for improvement, and execute targeted interventions to improve productivity.

Abstract

This study offers an extensive bibliometric analysis of critical chain project management (CCPM) research over the past twenty years, seeking to elucidate the discipline’s developmental trajectory and pinpoint emerging research frontiers. A comprehensive review of the literature revealed fundamental principles of CCPM, highlighting essential components such as buffer management strategies and resource-constrained scheduling methodologies. This initial analysis established the theoretical framework for the quantitative study and facilitated the identification of suitable metrics to integrate both foundational theories and contemporary advancements in CCPM scholarship. The study examined approximately 1,800 academic publications, including journal articles, conference proceedings, review papers, and book chapters published from 2000-2022, obtained from the Scopus database. The analytical framework encompassed various bibliometric dimensions, including performance metrics, relationship indicators, conceptual frameworks, publication characteristics, and VOSviewer network analysis, as essential elements of the data examination process. The developed framework has two main goals: it helps researchers find important publications, potential collaborators, and new areas of research, and it gives practitioners a structured place to store information about how to use CCPM methods in complicated projects with few resources.
