ALTERNATE MEASURES OF PAVEMENT UNSERVICEABILITY
THE CONCEPT OF PAVEMENT UNSERVICEABILITY IS EXAMINED AND ALTERNATE TECHNIQUES FOR MEASURING THE SERVICEABILITY CHARACTERISTICS OF HIGHWAY PAVEMENTS IS EXPLORED. THE REQUIREMENTS OF A SERVICEABILITY CRITERION ARE FORMALLY ESTABLISHED AND THE CURRENT KNOWLEDGE ON HUMAN RESPONSE TO MOTION IS REVIEWED IN LIGHT OF THESE REQUIREMENTS. THE RESULTS OF AN EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM INVOLVING THE MEASUREMENT OF HUMAN TRACKING BEHAVIOR ARE GIVEN AND COMPARED WITH PARALLEL SUBJECTIVE RATINGS AND MEASURES OF ROAD ROUGHNESS.
