Synopsis Pavement Macrotexture Review by :
This pavement macrotexture review is for highway engineers and administrators concerned with the improvement of pavement surface texture as a countermeasure for skidding accidents. A summary is presented of the fundamentals of tire-pavement skid resistance and the importance of pavement surface texture in reducing skidding accidents. This includes a discussion of the skid number and skid number-speed gradient and of the role of pavement surface microtexture and macrotexture in skid resistance. The most commonly used methods of measuring pavement macrotexture are described, and ways of achieving high macrotexture in new pavements and of restoring high macrotexture in existing pavements are given.

Synopsis Pavement Design and Materials by : A. T. Papagiannakis
A comprehensive, state-of-the-art guide to pavement design and materials With innovations ranging from the advent of SuperpaveTM, the data generated by the Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) project, to the recent release of the Mechanistic-Empirical pavement design guide developed under NCHRP Study 1-37A, the field of pavement engineering is experiencing significant development. Pavement Design and Materials is a practical reference for both students and practicing engineers that explores all the aspects of pavement engineering, including materials, analysis, design, evaluation, and economic analysis. Historically, numerous techniques have been applied by a multitude of jurisdictions dealing with roadway pavements. This book focuses on the best-established, currently applicable techniques available. Pavement Design and Materials offers complete coverage of: The characterization of traffic input The characterization of pavement bases/subgrades and aggregates Asphalt binder and asphalt concrete characterization Portland cement and concrete characterization Analysis of flexible and rigid pavements Pavement evaluation Environmental effects on pavements The design of flexible and rigid pavements Pavement rehabilitation Economic analysis of alternative pavement designs The coverage is accompanied by suggestions for software for implementing various analytical techniques described in these chapters. These tools are easily accessible through the book’s companion Web site, which is constantly updated to ensure that the reader finds the most up-to-date software available.

Synopsis Evaluation of Pavement Friction Characteristics by : John Jewett Henry
This synthesis report will be of interest to pavement design, construction, management, and research engineers, highway safety officials, and others concerned with pavement friction characteristics. It describes the current state of the practice and discusses the methods used for evaluating wet pavement friction characteristics of new and restored pavements. This synthesis reviews models used for measuring and evaluating friction and texture, causes for friction changes over time, and aggregate and mix design to provide adequate friction. Also presented are construction and surface restoration practices for providing good pavement surface characteristics. In addition, considerations of noise and ride quality are discussed when compromise may be required.

Synopsis Relationship Between Pavement Macrotexture and Crash Incidence on North Carolina Roads by :
A recent study in Australia has shown that there is a relation between low pavement macrotexture and crash incidences on highways. However, literature documents no such research in the United States. This study focuses on evaluating the role of pavement macrotexture in crashes on selected roads in the state of North Carolina (NC). Pavement macrotexture refers to variations in the road surface in the range 0.02" (0.5 mm) to approximately 2" (50 mm). Laser profilometer data obtained from the NC Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is processed to calculate estimated pavement macrotexture at one-sixteenth of a mile interval according to the ASTM standards. Crash data collected over the same lengths of the corridors were integrated with the calculated pavement macrotexture. Scatter plots, bivariate analysis and multivariate analysis showed that a strong relationship exists between pavement macrotexture and crash incidences on NC roads. Analyses and evaluation indicate that crashes decrease with increase in pavement macrotexture on NC roads. Pavement macrotexture greater than or equal to 0.06" (but typically less than 0.12") would be most appropriate to provide safe and efficient transportation to road users.

Synopsis Pavement Asset Management by : Ralph Haas
Comprehensive and practical, Pavement Asset Management provides an essential resource for educators, students and those in public agencies and consultancies who are directly responsible for managing road and airport pavements. The book is comprehensive in the integration of activities that go into having safe and cost-effective pavements using the best technologies and management processes available. This is accomplished in seven major parts, and 42 component chapters, ranging from the evolution of pavement management to date requirements to determining needs and priority programming of rehabilitation and maintenance, followed by structural design and economic analysis, implementation of pavement management systems, basic features of working systems and finally by a part on looking ahead. The most current methodologies and practical applications of managing pavements are described in this one-of-a-kind book. Real world up-to-date examples are provided, as well as an extensive list of references for each part.
