Measuring Pavement Friction Characteristics at Variable Speeds for Added Safety
The Flordia Department of Transportation (FDOT) initiated the present study to assess the feasibility of using high-speed, laser-based sensors to quantify the texture and friction characteristics of asphalt pavements. The main objective of this study is to provide for a safer, faster and more appropriate method of estimating pavement friction characteristics on high-speed facilities, ramps, and other potentially hazardous sites. Further, it is also intended to provide for a means to obtain a measure of International Friction Index (IFI) in accordance with ASTM E 1960. This report presents a description of the FDOT testing program, the data collection effort as well as the subsequent analyses and findings.
