Standard method to assess the pavement profile is to calculate the MPD (Mean Profile Depth) index based on results obtained usually by usage of laser techniques. In analysis the models of the surface pavements have been used in order to calculate the s1, s2, s3 parameters values corresponding to mega-, macro- and microtexture respectively. The values of the developed parameters s1, s2, s3 are calculated from the specific power spectral density values of surface roughness obtained for the threshold pavement roughness wavelength equal to 0.1, 0.05, 0.005 and 0.0005 m. The skid resistance has been correlated to the s1, s2, s3 parameters using 11 varied cases related to asphalt and concrete pavements. Skid resistance tests have been performed using CSR (Continuous Skid Resistance) device with fixed slip ratio equal to 13%. Three different test speed values 45, 65 and 95 km/h have been used. The obtained results lead to factorial correlation equations between developed parameters and skid resistance indices. Correlation results for uncontaminated pavement surface can be characterized by the coefficient of determination values in range between 0.55 and 0.94. The results can be used for contactless determination of pavement skid resistance in Pavement Management System.

Safe Road

Maintaining a sufficiently short stopping distance is an important requirement for safe road operation. Stopping sight distances of road sections are decided during the highway alignment and roadway geometric design phase of the road development process. A pavement friction coefficient is used in the calculation of the stopping distances. Since pavement friction coefficient deteriorates with time under traffic action, and the available friction also reduces in wet weather, it is important for pavement maintenance engineers to ensure that sufficient skid resistance is maintained under actual operating conditions so that the stopping distances of road sections are less than the required safe stopping distance. This result requires pavement engineers to monitor regularly the available pavement skid resistance and the corresponding stopping distance of individual road sections. Because skid resistance is an accepted pavement condition to be measured in a pavement management system, it is proposed in this study that braking distance assessment be included as a part of the pavement condition monitoring program of a pavement management system. The proposed procedure consists of two parts: ( a) measurement of skid resistance and evaluation of braking distance and stopping distance and ( b) monitoring of the deterioration trends of individual road sections. The detailed procedure and the analytical tools necessary for the evaluation and prediction of braking and stopping distances, including a finite element skid resistance simulation model, are presented. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the concept and working of the proposed procedure.

Economic Comparison

Maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) scheduling for airport pavement is supported by the scientific literature, while a specific tool for heliport pavements lacks. A heliport pavement management system (HPMS) allows the infrastructure manager to obtain benefits in technical and economic terms, as well as safety and efficiency, during the analyzed period. Structure and rationale of the APSM could be replicated and simplified to implement a HPMS because movements of rotary-wing aircrafts have less complexity than fixed-wing ones and have lower mechanical effects on the pavement. In this study, an innovative pavement condition index-based HPMS has been proposed and implemented to rigid and flexible surfaces of the airport of Vergiate (province of Varese, Italy), and two twenty-year M&R plans have been developed, where the results from reactive and proactive approaches have been compared to identify the best strategy in terms of costs and pavement level of service. The result obtained shows that although the loads and traffic of rotary-wing aircrafts are limited, the adoption of PMS is also necessary in the heliport environment.
