Full-depth
reclamation uses the old asphalt and base
material for the new road. There's no need
to haul in aggregate or haul out old material
for disposal. Truck traffic is reduced,
and there is little or no waste.
A
surface consisting of a thin bituminous
chip seal, hot-mix asphalt or concrete completes
the road. The recycled base will be stronger,
more uniform, and more moisture resistant
than the original base, resulting in a long,
low-maintenance life. |
