1、Designation: E 445/E 445M 88 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Method forStopping Distance on Paved Surfaces Using a PassengerVehicle Equipped With Full-Scale Tires1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 445/E 445M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof or

2、iginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. 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 stoppingdistance o

3、n paved surfaces with a passenger vehicle equippedwith specified full-scale automobile tires.1.2 This test method utilizes a measurement of stoppingdistances representing the non-steady state skid resistance onfour locked wheels as the vehicle decelerates over a wettedpavement surface under specifie

4、d limits of static wheel loadand from a desired speed, while the vehicle remains essentiallyparallel to its original direction of motion.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents

5、; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.4 This standard may involve hazardous materials, opera-tions, and equipment. This standard does not purport toaddress all of the safety concerns, if

6、 any, associated with itsuse. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard toestablish appropriate safety and health practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 The test apparatus consists of a passenger vehicle withfour wheels.4The apparatus contains transducers, instrumen-tation, and a brake system for the four test wheels. The testwheels are equipped withASTM Pav

9、ement Test Standard Tiresas specified in Specification E 501.3.2 The pavement in the test lane is wetted. The test vehicleis brought above the desired test speed and is permitted to coastonto the wetted section until the proper speed is attained. Thebrakes are then promptly and forcefully applied to

10、 cause aquick lockup of the wheels and to skid to a stop. The resultingdistance required to stop is recorded with the aid of suitableinstrumentation, and the speed of the test vehicle at themoment of brake application is noted.3.3 The skid resistance of the paved surface is determinedfrom the result

Significance and Use4.1 The knowledge of vehicle stopping distance serves as anadditional tool in characterizing the pavement surface skidresistance. When used in conjunction with other physical andchemical tests, the skid resistanc

General7.1 Test VehicleCondition new tires by running them atrated inflation pressure on the test vehicle (or a similar vehicle)at a maximum speed of 50 mph

29、80 km/h for a distance notless than 200 miles 320 km before they are used for testpurposes. After conditioning, dynamically balance all tire andwheel assemblies. Inspect the tires for flat spots, damage, orother irregularities that may affect test results, and reject tiresthat have been damaged or w

30、orn beyond the wear line. The tireinflation pressure shall be 24 6 0.5 psi 165 6 3.5 kPa atambient temperature (cold). Prior to each series of tests,warm-up the tires by traveling for at least 5 miles 8 km atnormal traffic speeds.7.2 Test SectionsTest sections shall be defined as seg-ments of the hi

31、ghway having a pavement of uniform age anduniform composition that has been subjected to essentiallyuniform wear along its length. For instance, do not includesharp curves and steep grades in the same test section withlevel tangent sections, and do not include passing lanes withtraffic lanes. Make s

32、topping distance measurements only onpavements that are free of obvious or unusual contamination.7.3 Test SitesTest sites shall be defined as segments of testsections selected for stopping distance measurement, and shallinclude traffic lanes, or passing lanes, in both directions oftravel.7.4 Lateral

33、 Positioning of Test Vehicle on HighwayNormally, perform test in the center of the wheel tracks of atraffic lane of a highway. A stopping distance number may bequoted without qualification only if the test vehicle was sopositioned during the test. If during the test, the vehicle movesoutside the whe

34、el tracks for more than 20 % of the stoppingdistance, or terminates skidding off of the test lane, void thetest. If testing cannot be conducted in the prescribed manner,identify the test data accordingly.7.5 Test SpeedThe standard test speed shall be 40 mph 65km/h. Tests may be made at other speeds

35、but not less than 20mph 32 km/h. Initiate tests within 61.0 mph 61.5 km/h ofthe desired speed.7.5.1 When the test speed is 40 mph 65 km/h, it isdesirable, but not necessary, to cite the speed when quoting thetest data. For all other speeds, including test speeds above 40mph 65 km/h, the speed must b

36、e recorded. This may be doneby adding to the symbol as a subscript the numerals of the testspeed in mph, that is, SDN30,orSD30, indicates stoppingdistance number, or stopping distance, at a test speed of 30mph 48 km/h.6Dillard, J.

If a strip-chart recorder is used for the purposeof measuring stopping distance, the recorded pulses may becounted la

38、ter, but properly mark the chart or have the brakeswitch apply a mark to the chart when the switch closes.8.2 Pavement WettingWet the test lane at the test site justprior to skid testing using a water wagon equipped with spraybar or other means of distributing water evenly and rapidly.Make two or mo

39、re applications of water with a minimumcoverage of 0.015 gal/ft20.6 L/m2 6 15% per applicationuntil the surface is well-saturated (surface cavities are filledwith water and runoff results). Wet a sufficiently long segmentof the test lane to permit the test vehicle to skid on a wetsurface and to allo

40、w the driver to adjust the speed before brakeapplication. Rewet the test lane between each test as requiredto maintain similar wetness conditions.8.3 After the pavement in the test lane is wetted, bring thevehicle above the desired test speed and permit it to coast(transmission gear in neutral) onto

41、 the wetted section until theproper speed is attained. Apply the brakes promptly andforcefully to cause quick lockup of the wheels and to maintaina locked-wheel condition until the vehicle comes to a stop.Note the speed at the moment of brake application.9. Calculation9.1 Calculate the stopping-dist

42、ance number for each test asfollows:Inch-pound units:SDN 5 V2/30 SD! 3 100 (1)Metric units:SDN 5 V2/255 SD! 3 100 (2)where:V = speed of test vehicle at the moment of brake appli-cation, mph km/h, andSD = stopping distance, ft m, (total count 3 feet metresper count).9.2 The test results may also be e

43、xpressed in terms ofstopping distance, SD, in feet (or metres). Stopping distanceobtained within the permissible speed deviation may be cor-rected to the desired test speed by the following equation:Corrected SD 5 desired speed!2/actual speed!23 actual SD (3)10. Number of Tests and Retests10.1 Skid

44、Resistance of a Test SectionPerform at leastthree measurements of stopping distance in each test lane at agiven test site and at each selected test speed. Test no less thantwo sites in a test section. Consider the arithmetic average ofthe stopping distance numbers, or stopping distances, to theskid

45、resistance of the test site. Consider the arithmetic averageof the determination for test sites to be the skid resistance of thetest section. If statistical or other criteria applied to thestopping distance number, for a long test section indicate thatit cannot be considered to be uniform, treat the

46、 section as twoor more sections. For treatment of the results of faulty tests see10.3.10.2 Skid Resistance of a Single LaneIf the skid resis-tance of a single lane at a given test site must be known,perform at least six measurements of stopping distance at eachspecified test speed.10.3 Faulty TestTe
