This book was released on 1974 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The determination of skid resistance requirements for any given set of roadway and traffic conditions is reported. The study focuses on wet pavement skidding accidents at intersections and curves. The feasibility of implementing these procedures was demonstrated in the field. A simplified version of the procedures was also developed. The three steps involved in the procedure for determination of skid resistance requirements are outlined.
