Description
Short technical description: Field measurement of the surface texture of road pavements. The device has been mounted on a measuring vehicle, to allow high-yield measurements. The results of the texture measurements are highly indicative of the acoustic properties of the pavement, but also provide information on other aspects such as its skid and rolling resistance. Relevant standards: • ISO 13473-1 Mean profile depth, ISO/TS 13473-4 Spectrum analysis of surface profiles. Unique features: http://www.brrc.be
