The report describes a microcomputer system for analyzing the information collected by state forces in their annual network-level Pavement Evaluation System (PES). Included in the MICRO-PES are the following three subsystems: A one-year Maintenance and Rehabilitation (M&R) estimation system, which contains a series of decision trees developed by experienced engineers from the Maintenance and Pavement Design Divisions. The trees relate pavement distress to the appropriate M&R strategy and have been developed for Flexible, Jointed and Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavements; The RAMS-District Optimization Program which selects an optimum combination of projects within a fixed budget level. Optimization uses 0-1 Integer Programming techniques and uses maintenance effectiveness as an Objective Function; and A Routine Maintenance Estimate system which permits estimates of type, amount and cost of routine maintenance requirements for any highway or network of highways.
