Scope1.1 This practice covers the calculation of the InternationalFriction Index (IFI) from a measurement of pavement

3、 macro-texture and wet pavement friction. The IFI was developed inthe PIARC International Experiment to Compare and Harmo-nize Texture and Skid Resistance Measurements. The indexallows for the harmonizing of friction measurements withdifferent equipment to a common calibrated index. This prac-tice p

5、in predicting the speed constant (gradient) of wetpavement friction.21.4 A linear transformation of the estimated friction at 60km/h provides the calibrated F60 value. The estimated frictionat 60 km/h is obtained by using the speed constant to calculatethe estimated friction at 60 km/h from a measur

The inchpound equivalents are rationalized,rather than exact mathematical conversions.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any associated with its use. It is theres

United States1measurements of the various types of friction-measuring equip-ment.2The two IFI

16、parameters (F60 and Sp) have been foundto be reliable predictors of the dependence of wet pavementfriction on tire slip and vehicle speed.5.2 The IFI parameters, F60 and Sp, can be used to calculatethe calibrated friction at anotherslip speed using a transfor-mation equation.5.3 The IFI model given

17、below describes the relationshipbetween the values of wet pavement friction FRS measured ata slip speed of S and between the friction values measured bydifferent types of equipment.5.4 A significance of the IFI Model is that the measurementof friction with a device does not have to be at one of thes

18、peeds run in the experiment. FRS can be measured at some Sand is always adjusted to FR60. Thus, if a device can notmaintain its normal operating speed and must run at somespeed higher or lower because of traffic, the model still workswell. In that case S is determined by the vehicle speed (V)which c

Mean Profile Depth Dete

20、rmination6.1 The amount of data required to calculate the meanprofile depth (MPD) ideally comprises a continuous profilemade along the entire length of the test section.A minimum requirement shall be 10 evenly spaced profiles(in the direction of travel) of 100 mm (3.9 in.) in length foreach 100 m (3

21、900 in.) of the test section. However, for auniform test section it is sufficient to obtain 16 evenly spacedprofiles regardless of test section length. For surfaces havingperiodic texture (that is, grooved or tined surfaces) the totalprofile length shall include at least ten periods of the texture.N

22、OTE 1When characterizing a long test section with relatively shortsample lengths it is important to ensure that the texture is sufficientlyhomogeneous to provide a representative measure. It is necessary for theuser to use sound judgement to determine the minimum number ofsamples to characterize a n

23、onhomogeneous pavement.NOTE 2It is preferable to operate the DF Tester at a location where thesurface is flat. However, the effect of slope on the results is due to thedecrease of the vertical load on the sliders cosine of the slope angle.Therefore, a slope of 20 % will decrease the vertical load by

24、 only 2 %.Slopes higher than 30 % are not recommended.6.2 Resolution:6.2.1 Vertical resolution shall be at least 0.05 mm (0.002in.). Vertical range shall be no less than 20 mm (0.75 in.) andvertical nonlinearity shall be no greater than 2 % of the range.NOTE 3For stationary devices on smooth pavemen

25、ts a lesser rangemay be used. In this case nonlinearity need not exceed the aboverequirement of 0.4 mm (0.015 in.). The higher range is usually required toallow for a sensor mounted on a moving vehicle.6.2.2 Maximum spot size for a laser or other electroopticaldevice shall be no greater than 1 mm (0

26、.04 in.). The stylus ina contact device shall have a tip having a major diameter nogreater than 1 mm (0.04 in.).6.2.3 The sampling interval shall not be more than 1 mm(0.04 in). Variations of the sampling interval shall not be morethan 6 10 %. This requires that the sensor speed over thesurface be m

27、aintained within 6 10 % whether the device isstationary or mounted on a moving vehicle.6.3 The angles between the radiating emitting device sur-face and between the radiation receiving device and the surfaceshall be no more than 30. The angle of the stylus relative tothe surface shall be no more tha

28、n 30. Larger angles willunderestimate deep textures.6.4 Calibration shall be made using calibration surfaceshaving a known profile. The vertical accuracy of the calibrationsurface in relation to its theoretical profile shall be at least 0.05mm (0.002 in.). The calibration shall be designed to provid

29、e amaximum error of 5 % or 0.1 mm (0.004 in) whichever islower.NOTE 4One suitable calibration surface is a surface machined toobtain a triangular profile with a peaktopeak amplitude of 520 mm(0.20.75 in). This gives an indication of not only the amplitude, but alsothe nonlinearity and the texture wa

30、velength scale.7. Friction Requirements7.1 Only friction measuring equipment that have beencalibrated to measure IFI and that remain within their owncalibration limits shall be used.7.2 The equipment shall have a resolution of at least 0.005and shall have a standard deviation less than 0.03.7.3 The

31、equipment shall meet its own standard test methodand shall be operated accordingly.8. Data Processing8.1 OutliersInvalid readings should be eliminated whentheir value is higher or lower than the range of that surroundingtheir location. The invalid value for that location should bereplaced or dropped

32、 according to the standard practice for thatdevice.8.2 Transformation equations2:8.2.1 The speed constant (Sp) in km/h is determined fromthe Mean Profile Depth (MPD) in mm as follows:Sp5 14.2189.7 MPD (1)8.2.2 The next step uses the FRS at a given S to adjust thefriction to a common slip speed of 60

33、 km/h. This is accom-plished using the speed number predicted by the texturemeasurement in the previous step and using the followingrelationship:FR60 5 FRS 3EXP S 2 60!/Sp# (2)where:FR60 is the adjusted value of friction from a slip speed of Sto 60 km/h for the equipment,FRS is the friction measured

34、 by the equipment at slip speedS, andS is the slip speed of the equipment as described in 8.2.2.8.2.3 The final step in harmonization is the calibration of theequipment, by regression of the adjusted measurement FR60,with the calibrated Friction Number F60:E1960 07 (2015)2F60 5 A1B 3FR60 (3)8.2.4 Co
