High-speed road profile equipment evaluation
Evaluating relative smoothness is useful in serviceability performance studies and in studies of mechanistic evaluation of pavements for structural adequacy; pavement surveys are used by maintenance engineers, design engineers, and highway administrators to help make many decisions with reference to highway system; this paper discusses parameters affecting measurement of roughness profiles, evaluation of these parameters by various techniques, and importance of measuring these profiles at high speeds; several types of available equipment are discussed and associated data-processing techniques are described.
