Highway maintenance and monitoring are not trivial (or inexpensive) tasks. With such high costs, every increase in efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and resource management translates into significant savings. New smart transportation solutions may be utilized to cut expenses and get more...
Bitumen roads are made out of bituminous materials, and bitumen is a sticky black viscous liquid derived from natural deposits. A bitumen road construction provides a smooth surface to ride on and emits less noise. It also has a...
It’s inevitable that roads will need to be repaired from time to time. No roadway surface, whether in a neighborhood, on a highway, or installed on top of a bridge, lasts forever. Asphalt has many adversaries. Water can leak...
BITUMEN IN DIFFERENT FORMS Cutback Bitumen It is common practice to heat bitumen to lower its viscosity. In other cases, liquid binders, such as cutback bitumen, are preferred. An appropriate solvent is utilized to reduce the viscosity of cutback...
Why and how does predictive road maintenance work? There are three sorts of road maintenance strategies: reactive, preventative, and predictive (the latter two are also known as proactive approaches). The reactive technique is the most expensive since intervention is...
The phrase bitumen surface treatments refers to a wide range of materials that are primarily surface coatings composed of bitumen emulsions and, in some cases, a mix of bitumen emulsions and aggregates. These materials are often applied in a...
e the newly constructed surface may be reopened to traffic in approximately 30 minutes. Because of these factors, micro-surfacing is frequently regarded as the most efficient and cost-effective form of road repair by microsurfacing providers. The standard micro-surfacing procedure...
The first cold milling machine was built in 1979, with the goal of providing a novel rehabilitation technology to the asphalt paving business. These road milling companies, which are based on mining technology, employ hundreds of carbide-tipped bits on...
Road milling, also known as cold milling or cold planing, is the act of removing a portion of an existing pavement surface by the road milling company in order to restore it to a uniform texture for usage or...
Warmer weather means that road maintenance season has begun, and more work zones are appearing on our interstates, roads, and streets. It’s also the time of year when more people are driving longer miles to the beach, mountains, and...
