Abstract:

Frictional properties of pavement surface materials on roadway shoulders and highway ramps are of concern to state and county pavement engineers. Currently, the frictional properties of pavement surfaces are obtained via testing with a locked‐wheel skid trailer. Operational limitations prohibit the use of a locked‐wheel skid trailer on roadway shoulders and highway ramps. A Dynamic Friction Tester (DFT) can be used in these areas to test for frictional quality and characteristics of the pavement surface.
