Texture and skid resistance: preserve the test context

Understand the measurement before applying a limit

What this reference covers

A texture measurement and a skid-resistance measurement are different records. Keep the method, units and conditions visible when interpreting either.

Interpretation and limits

No universal conversion or site-specific skid threshold is asserted here. Check the applicable original measurement method and road-authority requirements.

Follow the evidence

Record the exact source edition and the applicable project requirements. Educational summaries do not establish product or project compliance.
