A review on the quality of data inputs in life cycle cost analysis of rigid pavement maintenance in Malaysia

The implementation of Life Cycle Cost (LCC) analysis is crucial in the cost estimation of rigid pavement type due to the high cost for constructing and maintaining the roads and highways in Malaysia. LCC analysis are being used as a decision support tool when selecting pavement type, which also us...
