About this file
This document is a calibration specification for two ASTM E274 locked-wheel skid trailers owned by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The trailers were manufactured in 2020 by International Cybernetics and are attached to 2020 F350 trucks with 6.7L turbo diesel engines capable of carrying 425 gallons of water. IDOT requires the trailers to be calibrated according to ASTM E274, which includes arrival measurements at 40 mph, force calibration of the transducers, calibration of the water delivery system, speed and distance calibration, and a review of the overall system to ensure proper operation. IDOT also requests that any non-functional components of the skid trailers be replaced, with all repair work to be completed by ISO 17025 certified technicians and approved by the Bureau Chief of Research prior to commencement.
