Project

Cedar Point Bridge

Project Overview

Nexpave completed road profiling work trimming the existing road height to match the new bridge deck and approach heights. A K2P prime was placed as a primer coat on the concrete deck then a C170 7mm seal was applied as a waterproof membrane and adhesion layer to the final 42mm of AC14H asphalt. The works included logistical planning of multiple different products sourced from various suppliers to achieve a smooth and homogeneous finished surface for the new construction.

      FAQs

      What is the difference between asphalt and bitumen?

      Bitumen is the black sticky product derived from crude oil; Bitumen is the binding agent that waterproofs the road surface. While asphalt includes between 4 to 8 percent of bitumen the asphalt mixes are similar to a cake mixture including bitumen, sand, metal dust, lime.

      How long does a new asphalt surface actually last?

      With professional installation and regular care, quality asphalt typically lasts 20 to 30+ years. In contrast, a standard bitumen spray seal usually has a lifespan of about 10 to 15 years.

      What is needed to maintain asphalt and spray sealed surfaces?

      There are many maintenance items that can be completed regularly to extend the life of the surface.

      1. Trim and spray grass and weeds to prevent them growing into the edges of the surface – if grass grows through a road surface or edges it allows water to follow.
      2. Apply a hand full of sand to high turning areas to protect the surface this stops tyres from gripping then surface on hot days.
      3. Don’t drive in the same path all the time, if you use the whole surface it will last longer.
      My pavement has cracks or potholes — should I be worried?

      Cracks are the primary entry point for water, which destroys road foundations. Professional bitumen crack sealing is a fast, cost-effective way to stop water infiltration and can extend your pavement's life by up to 30%. Nexpave can offer a wide range of repair options, contact us to find out more.
