ICC has designed a surface profiling system for evaluating the smoothness of pavement. The Profiler uses an infrared laser and precision accelerometer to obtain an accurate, precise profile measurement at speeds up to 65 MPH. It uses the measurement to calculate a profilograph index (PI), international roughness index (IRI), and ride number (RN), which is used to rate the surface smoothness. The system also generates a profilograph-type plot with defect locations and must grind lines, which tells the user where the roughness exists and what corrective action to take.

| The Profiler offers many benefits over the conventional method of measurement. It doesn’t require any set up or break down and operates at speeds up to 65 MPH. This permits rapid, real-time measurements. This also eliminates the need for lane closures or traffic control to test existing pavements. When the Profiler is used on an ATV it is so lightweight it can test pavements before they have completely set up. The Profiler can be provided on any vehicle required by the user. |

The system consists of an industrial-hardened PC with printer, precision accelerometer, laser height sensor, data acquisition sub-system (DAS) and distance measuring instrument (DMI). The equipment is mounted to an all terrain vehicle (ATV) or can be supplied to mount into any specified vehicle. The system collects data in real-time as it traverses the pavement’s surface. The raw data is processed and the results are output in standard or metric units on the flat panel display or graphics printer and are saved on a hard drive or floppy drive.
The equipment meets the requirements of an ASTM E950 Class 1 profiling device and is certified as an approved equal for the profilograph. The Profiler is a non-contact measuring device. The data collected is not affected by vehicle variation (i.e. speed, weight and suspension). Measurements are not affected by changes in temperature, pavement color or texture, sunlight, wind and speed.
