Elmod® 6 LCCA module

Three modules can be included with Elmod® 6. They can be accessed through the Elmod interface and function as fully integrated parts of Elmod ®.


LCCA module

The LCCA (Life Cycle Cost Analysis) module allows the user to select the optimum rehabilitation and maintenance solution for the pavement section. The main inputs are the back-calculation results from Elmod® 6 and a user defined choice of rehabilitation solutions.

The program performs a life cycle cost analysis for each maintenance option, and arranges the solutions according to cost/benefit ratios.
LCCA makes use of incremental-recursive analysis methods that are similar to the approach of the proposed AASHTO 2002 design guide.
Other performance data e like roughness, rut depth, friction and visual surveys may be included in the modeling.

The performance models and cost models are user adjustable and calibrated to specific conditions.
