TOOLS, MACHINERY AND MATERIALS USED IN ASPHALT PAVEMENT

TOOLS, MACHINERY AND MATERIALS USED IN ASPHALT PAVEMENT

In This Article We Are Going To Discuss About Various Materials, Machinery And Tools Used In Asphalt Pavement Construction.

I Will Introduce Useful Knowledge Of Tools And Materials Used In The Asphalt Pavement Process One By One.

HEAVY MACHINERY USED FOR ASPHALT PAVEMENT:-

Various Construction Machines And Heavy Machinery Used For Pavement Work, Some Specialized Vehicles Specialized In Asphalt Pavement Are Also Available, Each Of Which Has A Wide Range Of Fields.

1) BULLDOZER

A Tractor Equipped With Blade That Extrudes Soil And Crushed Stone,

And It Is A Vehicle For Performing The Earthquake Which Often Seen In Related Industries.

It Used For Roughing Of Roadbeds.

Tools Machinery Materials Used In Asphalt Pavements

2) MOTOR GRADER

A Heavy Machine Equipped With A Nail That Scrapes Up The Blade And Soil Between The Front Wheels And The Rear Wheels Of A Large Vehicle.

Compared To Bulldozers, It Can Smoothed More Smoothly, And It Used For Finishing Roadbeds.

3) TIRE ROLLER

It Is A Vehicle With Many Wheels Wearing Pneumatic Tires.

Using The Weight Of The Vehicle Itself, Tread Down The Construction Surface With The Tire, And Perform The Rolling Of The Surface Layer And The Base Layer.

4) ROAD ROLLER

A Vehicle Driven By Iron Wheels Instead Of Tires.

There Is An Advantage That A Wider Rolling Pressure Is Possible That A Tire Roller And The Pavement Surface Finished Neatly.

VARIOUS MATERIALS USED FOR ASPHALT PAVEMENT:-

Tools Machinery Materials Used In Asphalt Pavements

I Will Also Explain The Materials Forming The Pavement Surface.

1) SAND, CRUSHED STONE

A Material Used For Roadbeds That Form The Foundation Of Pavement.

Crushed Stones From Large Grains Used For Lower Roadbeds To Small Grains And Uniform Shapes Used For Upper Roadbeds.

2) ASPHALT MIXTURE

The Asphalt Used For Paving The Official Name “Asphalt Mixture” And Exactly A Mixture Of Crushed Stone And Gravel Mixed Asphalt As A Joint.

In Addition To Crushed Stone, Which Formulated As Aggregate, A Mineral Fine Powder Called Filler And Asphalt Refined From Petroleum Mixed To Produce A Mixture For Paving.

Asphalt Mixture

3) ASPHALT EMULSION

The Asphalt Mixture Becomes Soft By Heating And Hardens At Room Temperature.

Asphalt Emulsion Treated So That This Asphalt Can Be Handled In Liquid Form At Room Temperature.

It Made By Dispersing Fine Particles Of Asphalt In Water, And It Cures By Drying, Unlike The Mixture.

This Property Used For Bonding High Temperature Asphalt Mixture, Roadbed Gravel, Road Surface Protection, And Moisture Isolation, Etc. Called Prime Coat Depending On The Place To Used And Usage, Respectively, Both Are Important Materials For Ensuring The Quality Of Asphalt Pavement.

TOOLS USED FOR ASPHALT PAVEMENT:-

Above-Mentioned Asphalt Emulsion Mainly Used For Adhesion Between Layers Of Asphalt Pavement Having A Multi-layer Structure.

Spraying Of The Emulsion Carried Out Using Specialized Vehicles And Manual Tools,

1) DISTRIBUTOR:-

A Truck Filled With Asphalt Emulsion And A Spraying Mechanism (Spray Bar).

As The Spray Port Bar-Shaped, Asphalt Emulsion Can Be Sprayed Evenly On The Road Surface,

Depending On Running Speed Of The Truck, Amount Of The Emulsion Sprayed Can Adjusted.

2) SPRAYER

A Tool For Spreading Asphalt Emulsion By Hand.

Pump And Scattering Nozzles Attached To The Emulsion Tank With A Bogie, We Will Spray Nozzle With Hands.

Pump Power Has Engine And Hand-push Type, Both Of Which Suitable For Pinpoint Emulsion Spraying, The Distributor Superior In Terms Of Uniformly, But Since The Spraying Is Small, It Can Enter Even A Small Spraying Place, Construction Cost Cheap And Advantage That Special Qualification Not Necessary When Handling.
