Get PriceTack coats are thin applications of emulsified asphalt used to create an adhesive bond between asphalt layers, which forms a monolithic structure as per pavement design requirements. The result is “non-slip” or fully-bonded pavement layers that distribute the traffic loads at
Get PriceJul 15, 2019 Achieving desired density is crucial for thin asphalt concrete (AC) overlay construction quality control and quality assurance purposes. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) can be implemented for AC pavement layer thickness and density prediction during compaction. However, the overlapping of GPR reflections from surface and bottom of the thin AC overlay, as well as the presence of surface
Get PriceA tack coat is a thin coating of liquid asphalt or emulsion sprayed on the surfaces between lifts that produces a strong and uniform bond to allow the pavement layers to act as a single entity. Failure of the tack coat allows layers to act independently, and longitudinal cracking, fatigue cracking, delamination, and rutting can easily result.
Get PricePolymer-modified binders are often used as a tack coat for thin lift asphalt con- crete pavement surface layer construction. Asphalt Emulsion Tack Coat Materials Types of Emulsions: Asphalt emulsions are divided into three categories. Those three categories are anionic, cationic, and nonionic.
