Abstract
Low friction doesn’t mean the pavement (asphalt or concrete) needs to be replaced. Safe friction enhancing treatments are available at a fraction of the cost of new pavement. Presenters will share the “need to know” details of all phases of successful rubber and paint removal projects and innovative friction enhancing techniques relevant for all airports—from small GAs to Part 139 Airports .
