Abstract
AbstractPavement surface friction ensures pavement skid resistance when the vehicle tire contacts to the pavement surface, helping the vehicle to circulate safely. Friction evaluation has become an important tool in the evaluation of pavement surface quality. Macro-texture and micro-texture are two basic components when analyzing pavement surface friction. To assess friction in many asphalt concrete surface, the study used a British pendulum and sand patch test is conducted. In addition, the British pendulum will simulate the process of interaction between the vehicle tire and the pavement surface for measuring noise. Noise generated from testing will be measured by specialized equipment. The paper evaluates the pavement surface friction from the field experiments. The paper also shows the relationship between noise and surface friction.KeywordsFrictionNoiseAsphalt concreteHot mix asphaltBritish pendulum
