‍♂️ Reimagining Concrete Pavement Maintenance – right here in Georgia!

As part of his PhD research at Georgia Tech, Ryan Salameh has developed a groundbreaking method to automate M&R design for Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements (JPCP) using 3D pavement surface data.

Why it matters for GDOT and Georgia contractors:

No more high-risk, time-consuming lane closures

Accurate, slab-level crack/faulting detection

Optimized slab & joint replacement designs

Spatially referenced repair plans + quantity estimates

✅ Field-ready, constructability-aware outputs

This is the future of efficient, safe, and cost-effective concrete pavement maintenance in Georgia.
