Observations on Limited Pavement Friction Measurements with a Skid Trailer
As a part of the study on pavement slipperiness conducted by the University of Arizona for the Arizona Highway Department in cooperation with the Bureau of Public Roads, pavement frictional values have been obtained primarily with the stopping distance method. A request was made to the Bureau of Public Roads to utilize their skid trailer for the purpose of familiarizing selected personnel with the operation of the skid trailer, illustrating to State and city engineers the capability of the two wheel skid trailer and in obtaining skid numbers for pavement sections previously evaluated with stopping distance method. Limited data was obtained but it was insufficient to determine a good correlation between Skid Number (SN) and Stopping Distance Number (SDN). This report presents the results of the skid trailer testing and a thorough evaluation of the Bureau of Public Roads skid trailer. (BPR Abstract)
