Asphalt pavement refers to any paved road
surfaced with asphalt. Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) is a
combination of approximately 95 stone, sand, or
gravel bound together by asphalt cement, a
product of crude oil.

Smoothness.
Purpose of Pavement

• Drainage.

• Load Support.

• All weather operation.

• Direction and Guidance.

It costs less to construct and maintain asphalt
than alternative pavements.
Top Benefits of Asphalt Pavement

• Asphalt construction projects can be completed
  more quickly than alternative pavements.

• Asphalt pavements are the smoothest pavements.

• Asphalt pavements generate less noise than
  alternative pavements.

• Smoother roads reduce the wear and tear on
  vehicles because there are fewer bumps on the
  road.

• Unlike concrete, asphalt roads can be applied one
  at a time, meaning only a lane or two will be
  closed to traffic.

Porous Asphalt. Porous asphalt has been around
since the mid 1970s. This type of asphalt is used
in parking lots to enable water to drain through
the pavement. This pavement solution is
cost-effective and can last for more than twenty
years.
Types of Asphalt Pavement
Asphalt is the most recycled, reused and
versatile pavement material.
Perpetual Pavement. Perpetual pavement is a
combination of asphalt and the multi-layer paving
design process. They are durable and
long-lasting. Installation of perpetual pavement
is not time-consuming.

Warm-Mix Asphalt. Warm-mix asphalt is produced
the same way that hot-mix asphalt is, except it
is 50-100 degrees Fahrenheit lower. Reducing the
temperature of the asphalt has a few benefits.
These include reducing fuel consumption and the
production of greenhouse gases.
Thin Overlays. Thin overlays improve ride quality
and reduce pavement distress, noise levels, and
life-cycle costs. It is produced by using
warm-mix asphalt and recycled materials.
Quiet Pavement. Paving roads with asphalt
significantly reduces the noise inside and
outside of homes and businesses. Switching up the
pavement of a noisy road with stone-matrix
asphalt or open-grade friction course mix has
been proven to reduce highway noise.
