AASHTO GSIC 1st Edition, January 1, 1999 Guide for Snow and Ice Control
More info
Description / Abstract:
Summary
State highway maintenance officials recognize that the adoption of a systematic approach to snow and ice control using available technology and research while implementing a proactive decision making process improves service and reduces costs. Snow and ice control is one of the most important functions performed by maintenance forces in many state, county, and local government highway agencies. This winter maintenance function is frequently resource intensive and often strains maintenance budgets. For some agencies, snow and ice control is the single largest line item in the highway maintenance budget
Recognizing the potential savings and the opportunity to improve winter maintenance in general, the AASHTO Board of Directors, acting on recommendations by the AASHTO Standing Committee on Highways and the AASHTO Highway Subcommittee on Maintenance, approved an administrative resolution in November 1994 establishing a winter maintenance program. One element of this program supports the establishment of a project under the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) to develop a comprehensive guide for snow and ice control. As a result, a comprehensive outline of a proposed guide was developed under NCHRP Project 20-7, Task 71, "Winter Maintenance Program."
