dc.description.abstract | The climate of the island is generally subtropical. There is a rainy season in early summer when plums are ripening every year. The island is also periodically battered by typhoons. The rainfall is heavy during these seasons. The earthquakes happen sometimes because the island locates between Asian Plate and Pacific Plate. Therefore, through the fix in time management of hillsides of highways, we can diminish the damages of roads to the minimum.
The maintenance behaviors contain periodic maintenance and maintenance of fix in time. Because of the changes of economic era, these maintenances have turned into the improvement of the quality of traffic service. The maintenance unit usually has to keep not only the securities of pedestrians but also the freely passing of highways. To achieve above missions, we set up the following plans and procedures: organization charts, the strategy for construction issuing, damage fix in time and traffic maintenance, etc. These plans and procedures account for responsibilities and handling methods to improve the efficiency of administration and convenience of services.
Maintenance work depends on continuous and systematic proceeding. The security of facilities, all kinds of hillside problems, stability, and ecosystem problems should be addressed by the soil conservation construction. Meanwhile, this construction method should also consider ecosystem conservation. Thus, the construction methods and construction periods are very important. Except for routine maintenance, there are other maintenance points. In the succeeding years, the maintenance costs and plans setting should depend on historic experiences and these experiences can be evaluated or cited to improve the service quality and maintenance objectives.
The hillside damages of mountain highways are caused by natural environment and human behaviors, etc. The information for different kinds of damages, maintenance methods, and safe observation is very important sources for post management under information sharing. Therefore, the fix in time information for hillsides of mountain highways and retaining constructions is necessary and will be the trend. | en_US |
