Description
FORTA-FI® was used in a 7 cm (2.75”) base and a 4 cm (1.5”) wearing course on a steep, high volume, heavy truck access road. On the edge of a new residential project right next to the asphalt plant – asphalt mix is placed on compacted subgrade. The street is rather steep, leading from the plant exit straight down. The street will be exposed to heavy loads of full tracks transporting asphalt mixes from the plant during the work week. The use of FORTA-FI® will aid in the crack reduction and extending the overall pavement life of this roadway.
