A machine for resurface existing roads. The machine may include a first group of sprayers configured to form a first layer of binding material, and a fiber material distribution component positioned adjacent the first group of sprayers. The fiber material distribution component may be configured to distribute fiber material onto the first layer of the binding material. The machine may also include a second group of sprayers positioned adjacent the fiber material distribution component. The second group of sprayers may be configured to form a second layer of the binding material over the distributed fiber material. Additionally, the machine may include a channel positioned adjacent the second group of sprayers. The channel may be configured to supply an asphalt mixture over the second layer of the binding material. Further, the machine may include a screed positioned adjacent the conduit. The screed may be positioned to contact the asphalt mixture.

The present invention relates to a material for waterproof layers used for a waterproof layer of a construction, the material for waterproof layers containing a polyamide resin, the polyamide resin having a softening point of 70 C. or more and 170 C. or less and a melt viscosity at 180 C. of 100 mPa.Math.s or more and 9,000 mPa.Math.s or less, the polyamide resin being obtainable through condensation of a carboxylic acid component and an amine component.

A binder composition for asphalt pavements that includes: an asphalt binder; an elastomeric polymer; a wax modifier; and optionally at least one of: i) fumed silica or fumed alumina; and ii) a saponified fatty acid and a resin acid gelling compound. The composition is applied as a tack coat and/or a stress absorbing membrane interlayer and is non-tracking.

A running track includes a reinforced concrete slab base that is poured over and around post-tensioning cables suspended therein. The post-tensioning cables include transverse cables that extend transversely across the base, and lengthwise cable structures extending lengthwise through the base. Each lengthwise cable structure includes a series of individual segments that are joined end-to-end to form respective continuous loops and are individually tensioned. The lengthwise cable structures thus exert compressive forces on the base that are continuous and uninterrupted about the circumferential length of the track. The lengthwise cable segments are joined/tensioned from within voids initially formed within the concrete base and, after tensioning, these voids are filled with concrete to provide a concrete base having a uniform top surface that can also be covered in a running surface.

This application is for an improved paver head for smoothing and finishing poured concrete surfaces. It includes a strike-off plow for initial leveling of concrete, an auger for mixing and smoothing surface imperfections, a roller for smoothing and leveling, and a finish blade for final surface finishing of a poured concrete surface.

A method for placement of roller compacted concrete (RCC) on a sub-base to produce a concrete pavement, which has: (a) dosing a concrete or concrete ingredients and loading the concrete or concrete ingredients into a concrete transportation truck, (b) adding at least one pelletizing agent to the concrete and waiting from 3 to 15 minutes under constant mixing to produce a pelletized concrete and (c) discharging the pelletized concrete obtained in step (b) on the sub-base from the concrete transportation truck, rotating the drum of the concrete transportation truck.

A paving mixture for application to a surface and a method for the same. The mixture comprises a binding material layer applied to the surface to form a base layer on the surface, and an aggregate material layer applied on top of the binding material layer, wherein the binding material layer comprises at least 15% of the bitumen in the paving mixture by weight, the aggregate material layer contains an asphalt mixture that provides a road surface. The aggregate material layer and the binding material layer are combined on the surface within 30 seconds of application of the binding material layer.

A coating applicator vehicle is configured to selectively discharge a flow of liquid emulsion and aggregate onto a roadway. The vehicle includes a rolling chassis and a powered spraying assembly supported by the chassis. The spraying assembly includes a strainer enclosure and a strainer basket that cooperatively define a manifold axis along which the strainer basket is manually slidable into and out of a passage of the enclosure.

A monitoring system for a paving machine having a screed may include an input device configured to receive a first input from an operator of the paving machine, the first input being indicative of a height of the screed above a work surface, and a controller electronically connected to the input device. The controller may be configured to determine an amount of a material deposited by the paving machine based on the first input, receive a signal indicative of an amount of a material delivered to the paving machine, and determine a correction factor based on the amount of the material deposited by the paving machine and the amount of the material delivered to the paving machine.
