Validation of TxDOT Flexible Pavement Skid Prediction Model: Workshop

The Student Guide of the product "Validation of TxDOT Flexible Pavement Skid Prediction Model: Workshop" gives a background summary of Research Project Nos. 0-5627 and 0-6746. It then presents the research tasks and findings from Research Project 0-6746. What follows is the aggregate characterization with the Aggregate Imaging Measurement System and the Micro-Deval Device. Up next is a demonstration (e.g., installation and new features) of the Skid Analysis of Asphalt Pavement (SAAP) software.The presentors showed several examples that run the revised program including hot-mix asphalt, seal coat, aggregate sources and properties, aggregate combinations, average annual daily traffic, and truck traffic. They also enumerated the limitations of SAAP.
