The AASHTO M 237-96 (2019) standard provides guidelines and requirements for the use of epoxy resin adhesives in attaching traffic markers to hardened pavements made of portland cement or asphalt concrete. The standard aims to ensure the proper bonding of traffic markers to pavement surfaces, ensuring their durability and effectiveness in guiding and directing traffic.

The standard covers the specification of epoxy resin adhesives specifically designed for this purpose. These adhesives must meet the specified performance requirements, including tensile strength, shear strength, and resistance to environmental factors such as moisture, temperature, and UV exposure. The standard also outlines the methods for testing adhesives and sets the criteria for evaluating their performance.
