Calibration of Road Roughness Measuring Equipment, Volume II: Calibration Procedures

DTFH61-85-Y-10004A separate report, FHWA-RD-89-077, Calibration of Road Roughness Measuring Equipment, Volume I: Experimental Investigation, documents an extensive series of measurements of the performance of a commercial inertial road profiling system (IRPS) and a commercial response-type road roughness measurement (RTRRM) system. Based upon the results of these measurements and upon an analysis of the operation of such equipment, calibration and testing guides, given in the present report, were developed to assist users in assessment of IRPS and RTRRM functionality and operating performance
