Abstract

Different factors affect the skid resistance of asphalt pavements. One of these factors is pavements surface temperature. Although several researchers have tried to evaluate the effect of this parameter on skid resistance of asphalt pavement, no specific result has yet been presented. In this article the effect of pavement surface temperature on skid resistance of different asphalt mixtures have been investigated. To perform this, laboratory approach was used. Four types of asphalt mixtures including Hot Mix Asphalt, Stone Mastic Asphalt, Steel Slag, and Porous asphalt were heated in oven and their respective skid resistance value were measured in different temperatures, using a British Pendulum Device. Results indicated that skid resistance of asphalt mixtures decreased as heating temperature increased.
