“…Thus, the data are considered not reliable to be used as inputs in order to produce a reliable LCC analysis of rigid pavement maintenance and rehabilitation. This results in the inadequacies of cost data inputs for rigid pavement maintenance and rehabilitation that has been pointed out to be one of the main obstacles to implement LCC analysis in the Malaysian construction industry (Ayob & Abdul Rashid, 2013Ayob, 2014;Suanmali & Ammarapala, 2010). All these data have limited accessibility for public use.…”

“…There are several factors that may lead to the deterioration of rigid pavement over time such as increases in traffic volume, movement in underground structure or environmental factor, i.e. moisture and temperature (Public Works Department, 1994;Suanmali & Ammarapala, 2010). The rigid pavement needs to be properly maintained in order to decelerate or reset the deterioration process of the pavement.…”

“…In another major study, Tinni (2013) found that the maintenance costs of rigid pavement are by far the most challenging to be estimated as there is a need of establishment of planned and required maintenance works and timings to be done. Besides that, the solid guideline that can assist the transportation agencies in managing the data for maintenance and rehabilitation works have not yet existed as the nature of rigid pavement is complex and complicated (Suanmali & Ammarapala, 2010). Based on the review of the literature, it was observed that there is no maintenance cost data of rigid pavement available and published in the Malaysian construction industry in order to help the cost estimators to estimate the total maintenance cost of rigid pavement.…”

Many scholars asserted that LCC plays an important role in the cost estimation of rigid pavement due to high construction, maintenance and reconstruction costs in Malaysia. Due to high budget allocation and expenditure on the maintenance and rehabilitation works of pavements in Malaysia by the government, it is crucial for the transportation agencies to optimize the budget allocation and select the most cost-effective pavement maintenance and rehabilitation alternatives. LCC is a useful economic assessment technique that compares the cost-effectiveness of different maintenance and rehabilitation approaches within the same road pavement type. However, in order to produce a comprehensive and reliable LCC output, there is need to ensure the cost data inputs is ready and quality enough to be used in the LCC estimation. This paper presents the outcomes of the comprehensive literature review on the state of cost data inputs for LCC analysis of rigid pavement maintenance and rehabilitation in Malaysia. The outcomes of the literature study have established that the majority of the construction industry key players are aware LCC analysis should be practiced in the rigid pavement maintenance and rehabilitation. However, the current state of LCC practice of rigid pavement maintenance and rehabilitation in Malaysia is still at the infancy stage and unready to be implemented due to the difficulties in attaining quality cost data for generating a comprehensive and reliable LCC analysis. The findings provide information on the current state of cost data inputs of LCC analysis of rigid pavement maintenance and rehabilitation in the Malaysian construction industry.

Many scholars claimed that due to maintenance, high reconstruction and construction costs in Malaysia, LCC shows an important role in estimating the cost of rigid pavement. Because of the government's expenditure and high budget allocation on pavement rehabilitation and maintenance work in Malaysia, choosing the most cost-effective pavement maintenance, maximizing the budget allocation and rehabilitation alternatives is essential for transportation agencies. A useful technique LCC of economic analysis that measures the different solutions of cost-effectiveness to rehabilitation and maintenance within the same category of roads. To generate a broad and accurate LCC output, however, it is necessary to ensure that the value information inputs are ready and of sufficient quality to use in the estimation of the LCC. This article shows the findings of Malaysia's systematic literature review inputs for LCC cost information study of dynamic pavement rehabilitation and maintenance. The literature study results showed that the greater part of key players in the construction industry are aware of the need for LCC analysis in the rigid rehabilitation and maintenance of the pavement. In Malaysia the LCC current state system of rigid pavement rehabilitation and maintenance, however, is still in its not only infancy stage but also is not ready for the difficulties to be implemented in achieving quality cost data to generate a reliable and comprehensive analysis of life cycle cost. The present findings of the paper which provide information on cost data current state inputs in the construction industry from the LCC analysis of rigid pavement rehabilitation and maintenance.
