“…The changes of aggregate textures due to the polishing action in PSV or W/S tests have been investigated quantitatively with different texture parameters [6,[8][9][10][11]. Based on these aggregate tests and roughness parameters for a given set of laboratory conditions, several prediction models for asphalt roads have been developed [6,[12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

“…After performing the SRMs efficiency tests, it was observed that independently of the environmental temperature and SRMs used, ice melting intensity was considerably reduced (<0.5 %/min) in the time interval from 10 to 20 minutes (Bianchini et al 2011;Matsuzawa et al 2009;Samodurova et al 2010;Rezaei, Masad 2013).…”

In 2012, the Lithuanian Road Administration initiated a three-year research project ‘The study of effective winter road maintenance of national significance roads in Lithuania’. The main purpose of this research was to optimize road maintenance in winter and to determine the most effective means of combating slippery conditions. The research project was carried out by two institutions: the Road Research Institute of the Faculty of Environmental Engineering of Vilnius Gediminas Technical University and JSC ‘Problematika’. JSC ‘Problematika’ conducted exploratory experiments, which were divided into two phases. In the first phase of the experiment, five different snow melting materials (Slipperiness Reducing Materials – SRMs) were investigated in the laboratory. Different test methods were used in this investigation. In the second phase of the experiment, three SRMs with different properties were selected, and experimental road sections were set up to determine the road slipperiness and the change in coating layer thickness over time concerning different environmental conditions, as well as different snow and ice layer thicknesses. An optical remote sensor of Road Condition Monitor (RCM 411) was used for friction measurements on the roads. This report covers the laboratory test results of five different SRMs, road slipperiness measurement results using three selected SRMs and their analysis, comparison of the performance efficiency of the most widely used SRMs in Lithuania and the tested SRMs under different environmental conditions.

“…Among other properties, skid resistance, represented by the CF, and macrotexture, characterised by TD, are the most appropriate properties for representing pavement adherence and, consequently, road safety (Fernandes 2010, Ivan et al 2012, Fernandes and Neves 2013, Papageorgiou and Mouratidis 2013, Rezaei and Masad 2013. However, these characteristics are strongly dependent on measurement devices and measurement analysis (Meegoda et al 2012, Najafi et al 2012, Zelelew et al 2012.…”

“…Besides other properties, skid resistance and macrotexture are the most important surface properties directly related to pavement adherence and, consequently, to road safety (Ivan et al 2012, Fernandes and Neves 2013, Papageorgiou and Mouratidis 2013, Rezaei and Masad 2013. However, the establishment of rigorous limits for those properties is a complex task.…”

In general, road authorities recognise the importance of research studies to support the development of maintenance programmes for surface characteristics to be incorporated into pavement management systems. For this purpose, the establishment of threshold values is an essential issue, but the literature concerning this topic is very scarce. The main objective of this paper was to present a methodology for the establishment of threshold values based on safety criteria and concerning skid resistance and macrotexture, represented by International Friction Index, coefficient of friction and texture depth. The methodology consists of two phases: evaluation of the influence of the pavement surface properties on road accidents and establishment of threshold values for each road environment (RE). The analysis of the influence of these parameters on accident occurrence is based on the definition of compound RE, a more appropriate technique for accident modelling. Minimum and safety values of the parameters are recommended in this paper.
