Rijvlaktextuur
Rijvlaktextuur refers to the microscopic surface topography of a road or pavement. It describes the pattern of raised and depressed areas on the surface that a vehicle's tires interact with. This texture is crucial for maintaining adequate tire-pavement friction, which is essential for safe vehicle operation, particularly during braking and cornering. A well-developed rijvlaktextuur ensures that water can drain away from the contact patch between the tire and the road, preventing hydroplaning.
The development of rijvlaktextuur is a result of the construction materials and methods used, as well as
Measuring rijvlaktextuur is typically done using specialized equipment that quantifies the macrotexture and microtexture of the
