Life-cycle cost analysis, Runway, IRIAbstract
The performance of airport pavements and the safety of takeoff and landing operations depend on the maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) strategies selected by the Airport Pavement Management System. In this sense, this paper aims to analyze different M&R strategies on a runway of a Brazilian aerodrome. The functional performance of the pavement was evaluated with the International Roughness Index and the economic performance based on the Life-Cycle Cost Analysis and the Effectiveness/Cost Ratio. The analyses were effective in comparing the alternatives, in addition to highlighting the indispensability of M&R, since the application of maintenance, whether preventive or corrective, reduced total costs and offered a satisfactory performance to the pavement. It was found that keeping the pavement in proper condition reduces costs with M&R strategies and helps ensure operational safety.
