Evenness of pavement surfacing on road structures
Abstract
Procedures and devices used for measuring evenness of pavement surface are presented, and problems of obtaining an appropriate evenness of pavement surface on road structures (bridges, viaducts, tunnels) are emphasized. The authors have determined that proportionally similar roughness indices can not realistically be expected for asphalt pavements on structures when compared to roads. A possibility of introducing a coefficient for reducing the international roughness index (IRI) index for driving surfaces on road structures is proposed.
