Abstract
The paper presents the results of research conducted in 2014 and 2018 pertaining to the number of overloaded vehicles on chosen roads. Proportion of overloaded vehicles in the total number of vehicles was investigated, and the number of days in which the percentage of overloaded vehicles fell within the given interval was determined, taking into account different accompanying circumstances – i.e. measurements with and without concurrent inspections by the General Inspectorate of Road Transport (GITD) in the vicinity of the weighing station. It was established that the percentage of overloaded vehicles depended on the intensity of GITD inspections. The proportion of overloaded vehicles when no accompanying inspections were conducted equaled 25.1% (minimum value of 18.5%, maximum value of 31.4%). With occasional inspections, the share of overloaded vehicles equaled 9.0% (minimum value of 6.4%, maximum value of 11.0%). With intensive inspections, the proportion of overloaded vehicles equaled 1.2% (minimum value of 0%, maximum value of 2.5%) and 2.2% (minimum value of 0%, maximum value of 7.7%). It was observed that histograms of percentage of overloaded vehicles may be approximated using normal distribution.
期刊介绍:
The quarterly journal Roads and Bridges – Drogi i Mosty is published by the Road and Bridge Research Institute since September 2012 as a bilingual English-Polish journal. From 2002 to 2012 the journal was printed under the title Drogi i Mosty. The journal mission is to promote current achievements in science and technology in the field of road and bridge engineering. The journal is intended as a forum of the exchange of innovative concepts and solutions between the researches from different countries. Original scientific and technical papers in the field of civil engineering and related engineering sciences are published. The scope of Roads and Bridges – Drogi i Mosty includes design, construction, maintenance and safe use of roads, bridges, airports and other transportation structures.
