content name:	NCHRP Guide for Pavement Friction - Final report
	TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 108: Guide for Pavement Friction examines the management of pavement friction on existing highways and explores the design of new highway surfaces with adequate pavement friction. The report also highlights the importance of pavement friction in highway safety; factors affecting pavement friction; and the equipment, procedures, and indices that may be used to quantify and report available friction.

The similarity algorithm calculates how much two contents in the system are similar to one another. So far, similarity is calculated based on similarity of the project type, area of interest and user type. Generally, if two contents have more parameters in common they are more similar to each another. More information.
