Unfortunately, this admixture of asphalt cement and petroleum solvent could often prove hazardous to the local environment. This could be especially disconcerting if seasonal rainfall caused the asphalt cutback to wash out into the local watershed. Not only could this lead to pollution concerns, significant rainfall... read more Ā»
The success of many paving projects relies on effective base stabilization and preservation of unpaved surfaces. When a roadbed is compromised or erodes from frequent rainfall or seasonal weather changes, it can cause significant problems which can incur significant costs. Forming a stable matrix of aggregate rock and soil particles help to firm the roadbed to maintain its lifespan or... read more Ā»
