Paving Products
Agencies today are caught in a squeeze between aging roadway systems and shrinking maintenance budgets. A major contributor to roadway deterioration is water beneath a pavement, which softens the sub-grade soil and destroys the structural stability of the pavement section. A pavement with a base that becomes saturated as little as 10% of the time will only have 50% of the life compared to a pavement where water is kept out of the base. Most of this water that enters the pavement section comes through cracks and pores in the pavement surface.
