This is great, no saw cutting necessary! The material can cool off as a larger surface area thus allowing the the area arround original pothole to be restructured opposed to a traditional cut and patch method that can allow the surrounding areas to have stress fractures that can lead to a potential crack between the new and pre existing materials. I also enjoy seeing the primer get used the way its supposed to!

@AsphaltMaintenanceGroup5 жыл бұрын
Not just our culture. Casta or Caste is prevalent in many parts of the world. I don't know that there is any real way to explain the stigma. Here in the US, I would argue that high value (or worth) is placed upon those in the "construction" trades based upon geography. It probably doesn't help that those in the "labor/construction" fields perpetuate stigmas among their own group. If you were on a jobsite you know that there were trades you looked up to and those you looked down upon. Any miner would NEVER want to be classified into a construction/labor group. It has always seemed to be socially acceptable to be in a labor field as long as you had a job title like engineer or architect but, I am sure that even there with masters and phd's their peer groups look down upon them. I wonder if a engineer designing massive structures would feel out of place among the high finance of Wall Street or tech heavy San Francisco? Imagine an engineer designing a deep space propulsion system. A high tech, state of the art technology of the future kind of guy meeting Mark Zuckerberg or Abigail Johnson. I can already hear that conversation. What do you do? Oh that's cute. Can you make my window blinds open and close when I press a button on the wall over there? I don't know....Maybe it is because labor and toil have been synonymous terms. Maybe in the US it is a carryover from the dark days of slavery. I would say that ignorance plays a part in the stigma but, that would only be from my perspective. Maybe it just is what it is. Everything has always been built on the back of someone else. That remains true of every industry no matter whether you are a laborer or a secretary. Someone has to be in those "trenches" grinding it out everyday. 98% of all of us are grinders whether we choose to accept that reality or not.

Yes it does Mark. Not only does the lute guy need to control height of asphalt at the edges but, control heights across the entire repair. If not, a "pillow" will be left and cause a bump every time it is driven over. The other important thing the lute guy must control is desegregation. The individual must ensure that the asphalt mix remain uniform and the aggregate remains even dispersed throughout the mixture.
@mavdad555 жыл бұрын
Asphalt Maintenance Group thanks for the additional info. Always wondered about the aggregate in asphalt. I assume your repair gets most of the aggregate from the softened road surface? Or do you have to mix more in? One more question; what it the brown liquid you trace around the patch for? Is like glue/sealant for the edges?

The patch becomes permanent, bonding to asphalt around it. A lot cheaper option for customers rather than a full depth R&R. and a lot quicker. Since the patch edges are permanently bonded, water penetration to the subbase is no longer an issue. The pothole or failed are will not show up again unless there is a preexisting condition in the subgrade structure.

Well, you still need fresh asphalt daily. This unit carries 3 tons in a heated hopper. Infrared patching is a quick way to do a seamless patch. The old asphalt is and new asphalt bond together because both are back over 280 degrees. As with all patches though, if the subgrade has failed, the patch will also eventually fail but, these typically last 3-5 years and should be used as part of a larger maintenance program.

I wonder what's the threshold of replacing versus repairing, 40% bad surface?
@AsphaltMaintenanceGroup5 жыл бұрын
I believe you are talking recycle in place machines. Those are fairly large train like machines made for highways and roadways and are typically to large to fit into parking lots. I think that they are not used more often because highways and roadways need to meet a certain design criteria when it comes to engineered asphalt mixes.
@AsphaltMaintenanceGroup5 жыл бұрын
I'd say that the answer is more than just a "threshold". When the asphalt no longer becomes manageable (or repairable), it should be replaced. The best solution is a full depth remove and replace (R&R) but, it is also the most expensive option. An alternative would be milling with an overlay but, that comes with its own set of issues. A popular and proven method to help extend the life of a bad asphalt surface is a Chipseal or Slurryseal. It is not a permanent fix but can extend the life another 7 - 12 years.
@TairnKA5 жыл бұрын
The video I saw, was on a two lane road (Germany?), doing one side, letting vehicles drive on the other (semi's?). Then doing the other side, again with traffic moving now on the "new" road. I believe it's the same for a free/highway job? I agree it's not for parking lots or such.
@AsphaltMaintenanceGroup5 жыл бұрын
The process would be the same for a freeway or highway. I do know that a rejuvenator is added to the asphalt after it is grinded away. This would be a question more suited to an roadway engineer than myself. I don't know exactly how the asphalt conforms to the mix design regulations in the recycle in place processes.

I see the comments about needing a full depth repair to make things right. but municipalities are struggling to generate revenue to fund police, fire and other gov necessities. I know here in Milwaukee we have rotating fire house closures because of lack of funding. we live in a snow belt also, so we have the added cost of snow removal and purchasing road salt. so if a city can employ this repair technique and save cash, they will jump all over it and keep it. they are pretty much forced to do this. no money for anything more in depth.

@Derek Charette Bud, you are being a bit childish. Also, while I think infrared repair is great, depending on this situation cold milling can be just as efficient and the repair lasts longer. A dump truck and trailer, pulling a skid steer with milling attachment and a small steel wheel roller. The only difference is one extra piece of equipment which is necessary for speed when doing larger, more numerous areas (as opposed to hauling all the material with a wheel barrel). The footprint on the earth is no different, especially when you are reusing the old material at your asphalt plant. Makes sense eh? It will last longer unless you did a poor job and it will be completely flush with the existing road, as opposed to this method which leaves a raised edge for the overlay. It all depends on the situation. This method is typically used because it is cheaper. Either could have been explained without the need for arrogance or immaturity from both of you. I'd also add ignorance one the part of the person who made the jab at Americans.

Actually no, cold milling wouldn't be any faster or better. Cold milling is very resource intensive and expensive. Our cold milling machine is $70,000 and requires the use of a large wheeled loader, a belt loader, a street sweeper and several dump trucks. Not to mention the traffic control and laborers on the ground. When we cold mill our roads, which we do for base stabilization, it costs the tax payers about $25,000 per week. Infrared repairs are far more beneficial and cheaper. They can also repair much more than pot holes too. Though this was kind of a crappy job. I wish we had one for our dept. Would save us a lot of time and money.

@AsphaltMaintenanceGroup6 жыл бұрын
Agreed that a full depth patch, along with fixing the subgrade is the best permanent solution. However, infrared patching can be done at a fraction of the cost and completed in a fraction of the time. As we all know though, subgrade issues are very rarely localized to a single location in a parking lot. How many times have we all went in to do a full depth R&R and found 2" of existing asphalt and then proceeded to excavate 6" of existing clay subbase? The best, most structurally sound part of the entire parking lot is the patch we all just completed. After we leave the parking lot continues to disintegrate around our patch!

All those fumes and no mask? Always wondered about that. In construction, you could get fired for not having lung protection.

I had/have always thought the same thing. The insurance company sends out an independent test company every year testing the air environment these individuals work in. The results have always come back meeting all existing standards. Personally i have never agreed with the results because anyone who breaths in that smoke for extended periods of time has sinus issues at the end of the day. As part of the safety program we offered all employees the opportunity to wear respirators. We brought in an outside safety supply company to fit all those individuals who wanted masks. Some wear them and some do not. I would like to force the issue of wearing respirators all the time but, unfortunately safety programs typically tend to be a means of compliance. There is only so much that can be done when you're not the one signing checks and there is a severe disconnect between owners and boots on the ground.

Get a life. You aren't going to get fired for no lung protection. Educate yourself before you post such idiotic statements. It's an open air environment not a confined space. They are fine.

it should be cut and remove first the weary asphalt pavement to square edge and clean the area ,then apply tack coat before laying new asphalt and compact using road roller.
@AsphaltMaintenanceGroup5 жыл бұрын
Cutting the asphalt leaves four new areas that water can penetrate into the base. An Infrared repair is seamless.

I am sure the property owners got their moneys worth from the company fixing the pot holes and cracks. It all comes down to the balance sheet for what method works the most economically. Although I would have liked to seen them inject 2"long glass fibers into the asphalt mix to keep it from breaking up so easily due to temp. changes.What really puzzles me is how in hell the girl gets her skinny leg jeans on and off every day without breaking her ankles?? Never could understand that.

If only there were more of those asphalt heaters to go around, the DOT could MELT the snow and ice in the winter time instead of push it around...just as long as they melt it and immediately apply salt/sand or brine to it to keep it from re-freezing.
