Sprayed Sealing – Calibration of Bitumen Sprayers
This Pavement Work Tip provides information on the essential elements of the calibration process for bitumen sprayers.
Sprayed Sealing – Selecting Aggregate Size
This Pavement Work Tip details the general principles affecting aggregate size selection and provides recommended aggregate sizes for a range of sealing treatments.
Sprayed Seals – Pre-spraying to Correct Surface Texture
This Pavement Work Tip outlines the procedure to allow for surface texture variations by pre-spraying of additional binder.
Sprayed Sealing – Minimising Handwork
This Pavement Work Tip provides instructions on how to minimise sprayed sealing handwork and gives some suggestions for maximising the use of a sprayer when sealing tapers and roundabouts.
Sprayed Seals – Aggregate Spread Rates and Spreader Calibration
This Pavement Work Tip describes the requirements for the selection of an appropriate design aggregate spread rate and the calibration of aggregate spreading equipment for uniformity and consistency of output.
Sprayed Sealing in Extremely Hot Weather
This Pavement Work Tip refers to minimising the risk of bleeding when carrying out sprayed sealing work during extreme hot weather events, especially when subject to slow moving or stationary heavy traffic, or unusually heavy loads.
Air Voids in Dense Graded Asphalt
This Pavement Work Tip highlights the importance of air voids on the in-service performance of compacted dense graded asphalt mixes.
Asphalt Joints
This Pavement Work Tip details techniques to ensure that joints in asphalt do not create a point of weakness due to poor compaction and that correct shape and ride quality are maintained.
Production and Paving of EME2
This Pavement Work Tip details the production and paving of EME2, a high modulus asphalt produced with a very hard paving grade bitumen and a high binder content.
