Protocols for network-level macrotexture measurement /

Macrotexture, which influences vehicle-roadway skid resistance, refers to the texture of the pavement due to the arrangement of aggregate particles. Pavement surfaces are subjected to seasonal variations, and over time the embedded aggregates become polished due to the onslaught of traffic. Research...
