British Arenaceous Rocks for Skid-Resistant Road Surfacings
There is only a limited number of commercial sources of roadstone which is sufficiently durable and resistant to polishing for use on present-day heavily trafficked roads. The Institute of Geological Sciences and the Transport and Road Research Laboratory have carried out a survey of the British arenaceous (gritstones and similar) rocks with the object of finding new sources of suitable roadstone. An account is given of the selection, sampling and testing of a cross-section of possible suitable arenaceous rocks, together with a discussion of the results. (Author)
