1.1Â This practice covers the installation of piezoelectric tire-force sensors that are used to detect axles when counting, classifying, or weighing vehicles as part of a roadway traffic monitoring program. Piezoelectric sensors are often used in pairs and combined with other roadway sensors such as inductive loops to classify and weigh vehicles.
1.2Â The practice applies only to piezoelectric tire-force sensors used for the detection of vehicle axles on a roadway.
5.1Â This practice addresses the installation of piezoelectric sensors that support traffic recording devices which are used for monitoring highway traffic characteristics. Thus, this practice provides information that must be used with professional judgment by qualified persons within governmental agencies and private firms to aid in the management of roads and roadway traffic.
