A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The 16 papers deal with the following areas: Development and evaluation of anti-lock brake systems; tires and road surfaces; road surface characteristics and hydroplaning; skid resistance and water film thickness; the design and performance of high friction dense asphalts; some U.K. developments in skid-resistant road surfacings; anti-skid road surfacing--a contractors view on a resin/bauxite system; rehabilitation of concrete pavements anti-skid properties; chipped bituminous concrete, a dense, durable anti-skid pavement; actual experience regarding the chipping of cement concrete; status of runway slipperiness research; two statistical methods for detection of slippery when wet highway sections; the relationship between accident experience and wet pavement skid resistance; wet weather injury accidents on New Zealand roads; driver awareness of wet weather skidding accident potential; and evaluation of accident rate-skid number relationships for a nationwide sample of highway sections.
