Continuous pour! The RoadTec holds a buffer slug of asphalt so that the paver doesn't have to stop while waiting on the next truck. The continuous pour makes a higher quality, seamless surface, i.e. no cold joints.

@emeraldzebra9360 3 жыл бұрын

@@geezer652 When we were doing part of the M6 motorway, we had the paver keep moving but with no buffer but Christ you had to be quick! 1 finishes tipping and as the last bit falls he is already rolling away. Soon as there was enough space between him departing and the paver, you threw your truck in, fast as possible, reversed onto the paver as the tipper was rising, literally popped up the dump gate as you approached his "push rollers" and tipped as usual. The last small amount in the tipping tray was the time you had to swap trucks! It was a mad process, you had to be exactly on it. But this would of been pretty useful for us.

@Crupi-kf4ss 3 жыл бұрын

The new asphalt mat follows the proper grades, which is usually set from the new curbs (if there is curbs). The older asphalt, could have settled causing low spots. You do try your best to tie into and feather to existing asphalt or the paving crew has no idea what they are doing

@3613jeremy 3 жыл бұрын

I'm wondering the same I use to run a Michigan 8-axle flow boy and all I ever did was back up to the paver pull my trailer brake to 10psi open the back & flip my PTO switch and raise the RPMs to the the desired belt speed run the asphalt right in to the hopper. It always impressed me how powerful those pavers are my truck fully loaded weighed about 160k then add in the brake pressure and the machines weight it had to be pushing well over 200k and there where times it was up a steep hill from a stop was definitely one of the funnest jobs I've ever had.

@jpj2065 3 жыл бұрын

@chax2004 @Jeremy G It’s called a transfer machine. For bigger jobs it’s more common to have one. Some of the advantages are continuously paving, due to the transfer machine holding HMA while the hopper on the paver is full. This can reduce trucking costs as well. Since not as many trucks are sitting waiting to dump. It can also decrease temp differentials along with reducing agg segregation. Cool machines if you ask me

@ZurkeyTurkey 3 жыл бұрын
