DOWNLOAD EBOOKPaper 1: Between December, 1958, and September, 1959, over 300 pavement surfaces, including 6 surface types, were skid tested in Florida using a tapley decelerometer mounted in a passenger vehicle. The skid tests were conducted on a wet surface at 40 mph. Paper 2: The coefficients of friction were experimentally determined for rubber tires on road surfaces in relation to slip when a wheel is braked. The method and equipment are described. Paper 3: The procedure for using a pendulum-type (tapley) decelerometer to measure the coefficient of friction is an empirical one in which the test car is braked for 1 sec and the maximum deceleration recorded by the device. Paper 4: Data are presented for many different types of pavements when dry, set, and snow- and ice-covered, with the latest types of rubber tires indicating the importance for precise measurements of coefficients of friction for the design of modern streets and highways and for developing programs for the prevention of skidding accidents.
