bull Present Serviceability Rating (PSR)ndash Based on ride quality defined by observerndash Values from 1-5

bull International Roughness Indexndash Based on Average Rectified Slope (ARS)

determined from vehicle accumulated suspension motion divided by the distance mkm

ndash IRI= 1000ARS018( )5 IRIPSR e

Dipstick Analyzerbull Operation

The Dipstick Road Profiler stands on two support legs

The operator simply walks the Dipstick along a survey line alternately pivoting the instrument about each leg

Two digital displays show the elevation difference between the Dipsticks two support legs

Audible and visual signals alert the operator when each elevation difference reading is measured and automatically recorded
