Abstract

Chip seals are a very important and commonly used tool to preserve and extend the life of flexible pavements and restore skid resistance, particularly for pavements with low to medium traffic volume. Despite its wide spread use, there is lack of quantitative, rapid and objective methods to quantify the quality of chip seals in the laboratory as well as in the field. This paper demonstrates the feasibility of using a three-dimensional laser profiler to measure metrics that can be used to assess the quality and performance of chip seals, particularly embedment depth.
