This report describes the Facilities Engineering Application Project, 'Pavement Marking' conducted from FY 88 to FY 90 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and Fort Lewis, WA. A brief description of various pavement marking types is provided along with different considerations used when selecting a marking type. Several pavement preparation techniques and marking application procedures are also outlined. The report highlights the fact that there is no one type of marking, surface preparation, or application technique that will ensure long lasting delineation for every situation. Pavement markings provide two essential roles in every pavement system regardless of whether the pavement system is for airfields, highways, a roads, or grocery store parking facilities. Pavement markings are designed to improve traffic flow and increase traffic and pedestrian safety. Traffic markings provide directional guidance as the means of improving traffic flow, and regulatory and warning information provided by the markings improve safety.
