The pavement rehabilitation and maintenance decision support tool provides asphalt paving KPIs like density, macrotexture, and temperature during the construction process. For some parameters, like macrotexture, current tools can only provide such information after the process when you cannot change anything anymore. This solution can provide decision-making support to ensure quality of the project. The tool also leads to smart rehabilitation of surface pavement layers, which leads to improved intervention times and execution quality (pavement lifetime). Importantly, the tool can facilitate a complete and seamless process to ensure the compliance with (asphalt quality) standards. The tool furthermore enables the use of thinner layers of asphalt (Asphalt for Ultra-Thin Layers (AUTLs)): Treatment of 2 cm to improve performance of road surface pavements.
Addressing target audiences and expressing needs
- Business partners – SMEs, Entrepreneurs, Large Corporations
- I/we wish to transfer my/our IPR to an interested party
We are looking for parties that are interested to help us to collaborate, improve and/or industrialise and commercialising this type of solutions.
- Other Actors who can help us fulfil our market potential
- Research and Technology Organisations
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
The solution is currently being tested in the OMICRON project. Next steps will include demonstrations of the solution to interested engineering firms and authorities and finding interested partners to improve, industrialise, and commercialise the tool.
The design of the solution is modular and flexible and can be applied to existing equipment.
The solution can be applied to exisitng equipment and can thus be used in other contexts which makes it replicable.
The added value of the solution in terms of additional information and possibility to better control paving operations reaching a higher quality result, is a good base to build sustainable business propositions on for exploitation partners.
