Modelling Road Deterioration and Works Effects in HDM
Modelling Road Deterioration and Works Effects in HDM
This document is the sixth volume in the series of seven volumes of HDM-4 documentation. It gives a
detailed description of the road deterioration and works effects (RDWE) models currently in HDM-4 and
provides some background to their development, particularly from HDM-III to HDM-4. Also included are
possible enhancements to some of the models currently in HDM-4. In addition, other deterioration
models are presented in this document for consideration in future versions.
The general concepts and approaches historically used in modelling RDWE in HDM are discussed in Part
A. The RDWE models for bituminous, concrete, block and unsealed pavements are then presented in
Parts B, C, D and E respectively. Part F provides a series of references.
