Determination of Friction Performance of High Friction Surface Treatment Based on Alternative Macrotexture Metric
Surface friction is currently the most common metric for evaluating the performance of high friction surface treatment (HFST). However, friction test methods such as the locked wheel skid tester (LWST) commonly provide a spot measurement. Large variations may arise in the LWST testing on curves. Bas...

Surface friction is currently the most common metric for evaluating the performance of high friction surface treatment (HFST). However, friction test methods such as the locked wheel skid tester (LWST) commonly provide a spot measurement. Large variations may arise in the LWST testing on curves. Based on 21 actual HFST projects, a study was performed to use a macrotexture metric, i.e., the mean profile depth (MPD) to evaluate HFST’s performance and improve its quality control (QC)/quality assurance (QA) procedures. The material properties were presented to understand the aspects of HFST. The method for calculating MPD was modified to account for the variations of macrotexture measurements. A vehicle-based test system was utilized to measure MPD periodically over an 18-month period since HFST installation. Statistical analysis was performed on the MPD measurements to identify the effects of influencing factors. Compared with the friction from LWST, MPD was equally effective in evaluating HFST performance.
