Reflective Crack Relief (Asphalt) Interlayer
THE PROBLEM
A typical treatment for restoring deteriorating Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) and asphalt concrete (AC) pavements is the use of hot mix asphalt (HMA) overlays. Overlays are needed to protect the existing pavement structure and provide a new, smoother, skid resistant, riding surface. According to American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 2017 report card, the U.S. highway system has been underfunded, resulting in $836 billion backlog of capital needs of which $420 billion is to repair our highways.
