Comparison of Surface Characteristics of Hot-Mix Asphalt Pavement Surfaces at the Virginia Smart Road
… friction and texture properties. A locked wheel skid trailer and a laser profilometer were used to assess the pavement surface characteristics. Laboratory testing of the pavement wearing surface mixtures was performed to determine volumetric and mixture specific characteristics. Testing included …

The Effect of Pavement Temperature on Frictional Properties of Pavement Surfaces at the Virginia Smart Road
… To accomplish the predefined objective, skid test data from both ribbed and smooth tires were collected over two and a half years (from January 2000 to August 2002) and then analyzed. Six sets of tests were conducted under different environmental conditions. The pavement and air …

Quantifying the Relationship Between Skid Resistance and Wet Weather Accidents for Virginia Data
… attempts to quantify the effect of pavement skid resistance on wet accident rates have produced inconsistent results. This thesis analyzes the relationships between skid resistance, accident, and traffic data for the state of Virginia. The correlation between wet skid resistance measured with …

Alternatives to PCI and MicroPAVER based maintenance solutions for airport pavements
… can be drawn between PCI and SCI, but Skid Number does not show any correlation with any other indices for this study where Skid Number (SN) represents the skid resistance of the pavement surface. Developed design charts are helpful to set cutoff PCI and to select the most effective …

Evaluation of selected airport pavements in New Mexico
… on the field collected surface distress data and skid resistance. Field collected distress data such as rutting, cracking, and shoving are processed using MicroPaver, a commercial pavement management software, to calculate the Pavement Condition Index (PCI). Field collected skid resistance test …
