The BS EN 1824:2020 standard outlines the requirements for conducting road trials to evaluate the effectiveness of road marking materials used in both permanent and temporary road markings. The standard specifies various aspects of the road trials, including test sites, application methods for the road marking materials on the test sites, parameters to be measured, frequency of measurements, and the presentation of the results in a test report.

The standard emphasizes the importance of conducting road trials to assess the performance and durability of road marking materials in real-world conditions. By utilizing designated test sites, the standard ensures that the trials provide accurate and comparable results. The document also outlines the application methods to be used, ensuring consistency in the process and facilitating effective evaluation.

Furthermore, the standard details the specific parameters that need to be measured during the trials, such as retroreflection, chromaticity, and skid resistance. It also defines the frequency of these measurements to ensure comprehensive and reliable data collection. Finally, the standard provides guidelines on how the results should be presented in a test report, enabling clear communication and easy interpretation of the findings.
