Rut depth is a key parameter in assessing the pavement condition of roads. This indicator provides valuable information about wear and deformation on the road surface, directly impacting safety and travel comfort. Precise measurement of rut depth is carried out using specialized equipment such as Fiona I, Fiona V, and a Profiler.
Fiona I and Fiona V are advanced tools that employ technologies such as laser scanning and high-resolution cameras to evaluate the texture and condition of the pavement. These devices collect detailed data that contributes to the accurate determination of rut depth. Additionally, the Profiler is a valuable tool that measures the elevation of the road along its length, allowing a comprehensive assessment of deformations and wear on the road surface.
The combination of these tools provides highway authorities with a complete understanding of rut depth and its impact on pavement quality.
