Our Work:
State and local highway agencies need to make the best use of their diminishing budgets for roadway rehabilitation and construction projects considering life-cycle economics. ProLCCA is a web-based life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) tool designed to enable state and local agencies and interested stakeholders to choose the most economical design for a new construction or rehabilitation project from cradle-to-grave. Some highlights of ProLCCA:

• Holds a database of pay items that form the basis of the analyses
• Stores projects online for future reference
• Compares up to five alternative designs
• Performs both deterministic and probabilistic analyses

Coming soon: ProLCCA v2 will incorporate environmental impacts in addition to economic costs.

The Outcome:
An online LCCA software for transportation infrastructure.
