Investigation of Pavement Light Reflection Characteristics
Source abstract
Abstract
ABSTRACT Current road lighting standards and recommendations are based on luminance levels and luminance distributions on the road surface. The luminance of the road surface depends on the amount of light falling on it and the reflection properties of the road surface. Using light aggregate for road surface pavements, significant energy savings in road lighting could be achieved due to significantly higher reflectance properties of the surface. In this study several experimental pavement samples with light surface characteristics were manufactured and their reflection properties were measured. The results indicate that lighter pavement materials result in higher average road surface luminance values and lower average lighting energy usage costs per kilometer.
