Changes of the skid resistance of pavements in the course of time (VSS1996/031)
Overview
Background & policy context:
The aim of road management is to carry out particular works on every road at an optimal point in time. Particularly in view of new performance models the changes of the skid resistance of pavements within shorter or longer intervals of time are of major importance.
This research proposes a study of the pertinent literature as well as an analysis of the long-term data collection on skid resistance on different pavements of the research organization. Some additional field recordings may be necessary.
Objectives:
With regard to the development of behavioural models of skid resistance of various road surfaces first principles should be worked out. This concerns in particular the periodicity of skid measurements for databases.
