Deals with the procedure which determines wet-road skid resistance of a surface using the sideway-force coefficient routine investigation machine (SCRIM). This gives a measure of wet-road skid resistance properties of a bound surface by measuring the sideway-force coefficient at controlled speed . The procedure was developed for road use, but also covers other paved areas, eg. airport runways, etc.

This British Standard describes a method for determining the wet-road skid resistance of a surface using the sideway-force coefficient routine investigation machine (SCRIM). The method provides a measure of the wet-road skid resistance properties of a bound surface by measurement of sideway-force coefficient at controlled speed. The method has been developed for use on roads but is also applicable to other paved areas such as airport runways.
