AS 1906.3:1992 PDF Download

The AS 1906.3:1992 standard specifies the performance requirements for raised pavement markers that are bonded directly to the pavement surface. The standard acknowledges that markers with alternative methods of fixing to the road may exist, but it emphasizes that their performance should be at least equal to those directly bonded.

This standard does not only focus on retroreflective markers, but also covers non-retroreflective ones. Retroreflective markers are designed to reflect light back to the source, enhancing visibility at night or in low-light conditions. Non-retroreflective markers, on the other hand, may not offer the same level of visibility but still serve as markers on the pavement.

The standard includes appendices that provide test methods for evaluating the performance of these markers. These tests are likely designed to assess factors such as durability, reflectivity, color, and other properties relevant to their effectiveness in road traffic control purposes.
