Skid Resistance
SKM- measurement vehicle
for the high speed determination of the skid resistance of pavements based on the SKM procedure according the regulations of the German TP Griff-StB (SKM), Edition 2007 and the European CEN TS 15901-8.
In principle our SKM measurement system can be integrated in every suitable chassis. Size and features are depending from the requested measurement focus.
If the focus is on a large amount of water for long measurement runs and measurement speeds up to 100 km/h even on ascending slopes, a chassis with a permissible gross weight of 18t (or higher, if possible) including a larger water tank and a stronger motorisation is recommended.
If skid resistance measurements should be carried out on different types of roads (from the highway to the municipal roads), the use of a more compact chassis is recommended. The water tank of such a chassis can have a capacity up to 6.000 litres, depending on the other requested equipment. The size of such a chassis allows the performance of skid resistance measurements even on smaller roads.
It would be pleasure for us to check the suitability of your favourite chassis for the integration of a SKM measurement system.
