Smooth asphalt roads look cool, especially in our country. And to make a good, high -quality road, you need to make not so much effort. With all this, each company, when asphalting of the road, puts its price. In addition, most brigades are engaged not only in roads, but also conducting asphalting of the territories.
What types of work are included in the price of asphalting?
In order to assess the initial cost of asphalting of the site, you should understand which work will be carried out there.
And the very first type of work is the planning of the territory. This work is to make a flat surface. Sometimes you need to remove excess soil or vice versa, add. If the area of the site is small, then work is carried out manually. Well, if a large territory, then they use special equipment: excavators, bulldozers, dump trucks.
The next stage is the preparation of the base for asphalting of the site. This work consists in the delivery of crushed stone on the site and its further laying on the prepared area. You should know that the smaller fraction of crushed stone, the more smooth the surface will be. And the smaller the crushed stone, the more it is necessary.
Last type of work – laying asphalt. If the site is small, then for asphalting the resin is heated in a special container manually. And manually pour it into crushed stone. The seal is carried out by small manual rollers. If the roller is hollow, sometimes water is poured into it to give weight. But it is best to use small self -propelled rinks. They have greater weight, which will allow to roll the surface more tightly.
For large areas, a special asphalt combine is used. This machine itself warms up the resin used and lays the asphalt path of the given width, but no more than its own width. If the width of the combine is not enough, then after the unit reaches the end of the site, it is launched back. This combine has a small speed of promotion. But it replaces hard labor manual labor in full. Immediately after the layer, large round and vibration rinks are launched. The rollers compact the surface of the asphalt. Make it more dense and strong.
It often happens that after a while, peculiar waves appear on the asphalt surface. This comes from the fact that the basis for asphalt was prepared poorly. And pits and potholes are formed due to non-compliance with the norms when laying asphalt.
To avoid this, you should contact the company who hold qualified specialists. It costs money. But you can pay for good quality.
