EXAMINATION ABOUT SNOW MELTING EQUIPMENT WITH WATER SPRINKLING ON POROUS ASPHALT PAVEMENT

The Japan highway Public Corporation has been using porous asphalt pavement for effectively in order to increase run safety in terms of time of rain and noise reduction. It is now necessary to test whether snow melting equipment that is being used and has been used on normal asphalt pavements prior to the induction of porous asphalt pavements is sufficient for the new porous pavements. This study examines the ability of these pavements to help in the snow meting process.
