Porous Friction Courses and Roadway Surface Noise
The noise level of open graded plant mix seal surfaces was compared to noise levels of three other roadway surfaces: asphalt coated dense graded, portland cement concrete, and chip seals. Three types of tires were tested on each of these surfaces: mud and snow, standard rib, and radial rib recaps. Field testing was performed on highway surfaces in Arizona, California, and Nevada. Field test results indicate that the open graded plant mix seal generally produces slightly lower noise levels than asphalt coated dense graded surfaces, portland cement concrete, or chip seals. Radial rib recaps were found to be slightly more quiet than standard rib tires, both were noticeably quieter than mud and snow tires.
