A methodology to investigate the readiness of cost data inputs for the estimation of total cost of a new flexible pavement construction in Malaysia

Life Cycle Cost (LCC) estimation of flexible pavement consists of three phases; i.e. data inputs, conversion, and outputs. Based on the literature study, most of the LCC practitioners only emphasised to conversion rather than the quality of data inputs of flexible pavement. However, a reliable and c...
