Reliable and accurate predictions of infrastructure condition can save significant amounts of money for infrastructure management agencies through better planned maintenance and rehabilitation activities. Infrastructure deterioration is a complicated, dynamic and stochastic process affected by various factors such as design, environmental conditions, material properties, structural capacities and some unobserved variables. Previous researchers have explored different types of modelling techniques, ranging from simple deterministic models to sophisticated probabilistic models, to characterise the deterioration process of infrastructure systems; however, these models have limitations in various aspects. Traditional deterministic models are inadequate to capture the uncertainties associated with infrastructure deterioration processes. State-based probabilistic models can only predict conditions at fixed time points. Time-based probabilistic models require frequent observations that, in practice, are not easy to perform. The goal of this research is to develop a new probabilistic model that is capable of capturing the stochastic nature of infrastructure deterioration, while at the same time avoiding the limitations of previous modelling efforts. The proposed nested model is based on discrete choice model theory. It can be used to predict the probability of an infrastructure system staying at defined condition states by relating an index representing the performance of the infrastructure to a number of explanatory variables that characterise the structural adequacy, traffic loading and environmental conditions of the infrastructure. The proposed model includes different possible implementation paths (sequential versus multinomial) depending on the considered explanatory variables and the available data. In the case study, the proposed probabilistic model is implemented with pavement performance data collected in Texas, yielding promising preliminary results.
