Abstract:The decision-making for the repair of drainage pipeline networks is a complex system problem that is influenced by multiple factors. It is necessary to comprehensively consider various influencing factors and apply the systematic methods to scientifically select the repair schemes. An empirical study is conducted on the restoration project of a drainage pipeline network in an urban area, which examines the main influencing factors in the project. And at the same time, an interpreting structural model (ISM) –analytic hierarchy process (AHP) composite model is established to calculate the weights of various indicators and schemes for decision-making objectives. Hereby, the key factors affecting the decision-making of drainage pipeline network restoration and the appropriate restoration scheme for the project are determined, which can provide reference for relevant decision-making.
