Skid Characteristics of Pavement Surfaces in Indiana
In 1953, drivers in the United States became involved in 31,450 fatal and 1,302,000 non-fatal accidents. Many of these accidents were primarily the fault of the drivers involved, but a great number might have been minimized or prevented by safer highways. Although many factors are involved in the building of safety into highways, one of the more important items is the resistance of pavement sur...
متن کاملMeasuring and Analyzing Pavement Texture Concrete Pavement Surface Characteristics Program
Introduction Pavement texture is defined by the irregularities on a pavement surface that deviate from an ideal, perfectly flat surface. As shown in Figure 1, the World Road Association (PIARC) has established standard categories of texture, classified by wavelength. These categories include microtexture (wavelengths up to 0.5 mm), macrotexture (0.5 to 50 mm), megatexture (50 to 500 mm), and ro...

متن کاملImproving a pavement-watering method on the basis of pavement surface temperature measurements
Pavement-watering has been studied since the 1990’s and is currently considered a promising tool for urban heat island reduction and climate change adaptation. However, possible future water resource availability problems require that water consumption be optimized. Although pavement heat flux can be studied to improve pavement-watering methods (frequency and water consumption), these measureme...
