ARES – Assessment Road Equipment System<\/strong>, is an innovative system that allows for the analytical assessment and determination of the actual performance of restraint devices along road networks, through surveys with high-performance vehicles, artificial intelligence models, machine learning algorithms, and performance decay curves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It provides essential support for managing bodies<\/strong>. It is an objective criterion<\/strong> that classifies the activities necessary for the technical control of road efficiency, based on their importance or urgency, and defines a priority index for interventions in the context of optimising available resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through ARES and its specific WebApp<\/strong>, it is possible to equip oneself with a system for the integrated management of restraint systems capable of identifying real critical issues and assessing the priorities of interventions, based on the maintenance status of the device<\/strong>, the characteristics of the support<\/strong> and the surrounding conditions<\/strong>, ensuring the overall safety of the infrastructure and minimising resources and costs.<\/p>\n\n\n

The objective of ARES is to determine a priority index for safety barrier<\/strong> adaptation measures, based on the intrinsic characteristics of the device, its state of maintenance, the characteristics of the support and the surrounding conditions, which characterise the Functioning Index<\/em>.
For all devices whose Functionality Index<\/em> is below a predefined acceptability value, adaptation measures must be planned in order to guarantee containment capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For all sections requiring adaptation measures, the priority of intervention is defined taking into account additional parameters such as the location of the device, its intended use, traffic, the regulatory context and cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To assess each of these characteristics, specific \u2018accessory indices\u2019 were used, correlated with each other according to coefficients that appropriately weigh their relative influence.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Through the survey carried out with a High Performance vehicle, it is possible to define homogeneous sections and identify and register road restraint devices.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
