Pavement Life Cycle Cost Analysis for City Logistics

摘要: As is well known, city terminals in densely populated areas affect traffic, infrastructures, health and the environment. In more detail, a new terminal has potential for influencing urban transport strategies, environmental aspects, infrastructure development, logistics, freight transport, port interaction, life cycle management. light of above facts, objectives this study were confined into preliminary analysis cost (LCCA) associated to several hypotheses terms geometric design pavement terminal. Hypotheses included: a) choice location (close railway track, motorway town having population about two hundred thousand people); b) layout main heavy vehicle paths from/to terminal; c) equipment; d) operations; e) dynamic static loads f) alternatives, construction quality assurance. Under hypotheses, been carried out, including rehabilitation resurfacing period, salvage value, interest inflation assumptions, present value derivation. Based on results obtained, options emerged as key factor minimization overall values. Results can benefit both researchers practitioners.
