description abstract | Many aspects influence the skid resistance of a pavement surface including surface texture, tire characteristics, vehicle operations, and environmental factors. The objective of this paper is to quantify the temperature influence on the skid number of asphalt pavement surfaces when measured by the locked-wheel friction tester. Specifically, this study aims to determine an adjustment factor for friction readings to a standard reference temperature, removing the seasonal temperature variations influencing measurements. This allows agencies to improve the comparison of pavement sections and to provide a more objective assessment of pavement conditions for safety. The friction database employed is from the National Center for Asphalt Technology Test Track facility. The data includes friction measurements with a locked-wheel trailer on sections from the 2000 and 2003 research cycles. The approach calculates the temperature adjustment factor, | |
