A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the measurement of the skid

3、resistance of a pavement or other trafficked surface using thecontinuous reading, fixed-slip technique.1.2 This test method covers braked wheel measurementsobtained with less than 100 % slip. It does not cover side forcemeasurements.1.3 This test method provides a record of the skid resistancealong

4、the whole length of one track of the test surface andenables averages to be obtained for specified test segments.1.4 This test method is used to measure skid resistance on awide variety of surfaces in a wide variety of circumstances.Consequently, there are many different designs of continuousreading

5、, fixed-slip measuring equipment (CFME) and as manydifferent test procedures governing their use.1.5 This test method does not attempt to detail thesedifferent equipments and procedures but does set out theessential common principles.1.6 CFMEs function by creating and measuring a frictionalforce bet

6、ween a test tire operating at a selected slip and the testsurface. Different types of CFME do not necessarily create thesame frictional force between their particular test tire and acommon test surface and do not necessarily use the samemethod to measure this frictional force.1.7 CFME measurements a

7、re obtained at a selected steadytest speed. This speed may vary according to the application.1.8 The test surface may be contaminated or clean and dry.If it is clean and dry, a measured amount of water is normallydeposited on the surface just in front of the test wheel.1.9 The measuring apparatus ma

The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, ea

9、chsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.11 This standard may involve hazardous materials, opera-tions, and equipment.
