WEAR MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES OTHER THAN PROFILE DETERMINATION

BRIEF COMMENTS ARE MADE ON TECHNIQUES FOR DETERMINING THE WEAR ON PAVEMENTS CAUSED BY STUDDED TIRES. THE STEREOPHOTOGRAPHIC METHOD AND THE MOLDING METHOD, BOTH OF WHICH ARE RELATIVE METHODS OF MEASUREMENT, ARE OUTLINED. THE RULE PROCESS, THE WEARING MARKS, AND THE ELECTROMAGNETIC METHOD FOR MEASURING LOCAL INDICATIONS OF WEAR ARE REVIEWED. GENERAL WEAR MAY BE MEASURED BY ONE OF THREE METHODS WHICH INCLUDE THAT INVOLVING THE WEIGHING OF SAMPLE, THE SAND PATCH METHOD AND THE RADIO-ISOTOPE METHOD.
