18、ounds. When values are low, the coefficient of(retroreflected) luminous intensity may be given in millican-delas per lux. In inch-pound units, RIis given in candelas perfootcandle (cd/fc). Historically, the term “specific intensity”and symbol (“SI”) have been used to designate this term, but“RI” is

Ordering Information5.1 Orders for material under this specification shouldinclude the following information:5.1.1 Quantity,5.1.2 Type of marker: retroreflective one way, or retrore-flective two way,5.1.3 Color of marker,5.1.4 Abrasion resistance, if needed, and5.1.5 F

26、lexural strength, if needed.NOTE 1Flexural strength is not critical when application is to portlandcement concrete pavement, but is critical when application is to some softasphaltic concrete pavements.6. Requirements for Retroreflective Markers6.1 Construction:6.1.1 The marker shall be comprised of

27、 materials withadequate chemical, water, and UV resistance for the intendeduse.6.1.2 Marker height shall not exceed 0.80 in. (20.3 mm).6.1.3 Marker width shall not exceed 5.1 in. (130 mm).6.1.4 The angle between the face of the marker and the baseshall be no greater than 45, except as provided in 6.

28、1.4.1.6.1.4.1 If the angle between the face of the marker and thebase is greater than 45, or if the marker front has protuber-ances of more than 0.04 in. (1 mm), then as part of typeacceptance, the marker shall be subjected to a six-month roadtest during the time of the year when weather and traffic

29、conditions are most critical to cleanability. Cleanability isdetermined by measuring coefficient of luminous intensitybefore and after washing the marker lens.6.1.5 The base of the marker shall be substantially free fromgloss or substances that may reduce its bond to adhesive.6.1.6 The base of the m

30、arker shall be flat within 0.05 in.(1.3 mm). If the bottom of the marker is configurated, theprotruding faces of the configurations shall not deviate morethan 0.05 in. (1.3 mm) from a plane.6.1.7 Construction not meeting the requirements of 6.1.2,6.1.3, 6.1.4, 6.1.6,or6.1.7, but meeting the performa

31、ncerequirements of 6.2, will be acceptable following a twelve-month road test to determine cleanability, durability, andadhesion to the road.6.2 Performance Requirements:6.2.1 Retroreflectivity:6.2.1.1 For new markers, coefficient of luminous intensity(RI) measured in accordance with 9.1 shall be no

33、test has been established for markershaving biconvex optical elements.NOTE 3Some two-color markers may intentionally have only one ofthe retroreflective faces abrasion resistant, in which case, the second faceshould not be abraded.D4280 182NOTE 4No laboratory abrasion test can be expected to model t

34、he fullrange of surface wear of pavement markers in use.6.2.2 Because no practical laboratory procedures have beendetermined to provide complete, reliable, and predictive infor-mation on adhesive bond strength, the user is encouraged toseek information from alternative sources such as field tests. A

35、field test duration of twelve months is recommended.Acontrolmarker is chosen with known satisfactory adhesion. The testmarkers may be required to experience no more than 1.5 timesas great an adhesion failure rate as the controls. The testseverity should be such that between 3 % and 20 % of thecontro

36、ls fail during the field test. There must be adequatenumbers of test markers and controls for statistical validity.6.2.3 Physical Properties:6.2.3.1 Flexural Strength (designation F markers only)When tested in accordance with 9.2.1, a marker shall withstand2000 lbf (8914 N) without breakage.NOTE 5Me
