| Abstract: | "This project used guidelines on considering rigid versus flexible pavement designs when allowed alternate bids and developed the Alternate Pavement Design Analysis Tool (APDAT) for pavement type analysis. This product contains both APDAT and the Federal Highway Administration RealCost software, developed in Excel, as well as the manual for using RealCost. The manual contains instructions on installing RealCost, descriptions of its features, and directions on using the software in performing pavement decision-making analyses. The user manual is addressed to pavement designers and design decision makers who wish to use life-cycle cost analysis and RealCost to compare the cost-effectiveness of alternative project proposals"--from Texas Transportation Institute website (viewed Sept. 26, 2011). |
