BITUMINOUS SURFACE TREATMENT IN COLD AREAS

TRATAMIENTOS SUPERFICIALES BITUMINOSOS EN ZONAS MUY FRIAS

A study is presented of the causes of surface treatment failures which occurred along national highway 3 and provincial highway 520 - recommendations are put forward for the selection of the right aggregates and bituminous materials, mix design, binder content with a view to obtaining higher resistance to weathering. The types of failure observed are illustrated and explained. /TRRL/
