Northwest Airports Choose High-Performance 'Green' Preservation

High performance ‘green’ pavement preservation materials are here to stay as five of the Pacific Northwest’s airports make the switch. Among those to recently install the AROS technology based coatings to both primary and auxiliary runways were Oregon State’s Hillsboro, Sale

McNary Airfield, located in Oregon's capital city of Salem, features runways that are unique in their design and pose a special kind of challenge for any pavement preservation technology.

Micromilling Can Help Win Smoothness Bonuses

A major South Carolina asphalt milling subcontractor is using fine-tooth milling or "micromilling" to give South Carolina taxpayers smoother roads

Fine milling provides super-smooth base for overlays while correcting cross-slope problems.

Tear-Offs Gaining Momentum with Sustainable Mindset

The use of recycled asphalt shingles (RAS), including factory rejects and tear-offs, has been gaining in popularity for both environmental and monetary reasons

Tear-off shingles and asphalt roads make excellent partners.

3D Transforms Milling and Paving

Grade control technology changes the nature of road building and repair operations.

By using Topcon GPS, Intercounty Paving Associates was able to simultaneously operate five Roadtec RX-900 milling machines to speed production at the John F. Kennedy Airport. This would have been impossible using conventional techniques.

Setup Tips for 3D Paving and Milling

Before you can mill or pave with a 3D system, you need to properly set the system up.

Complex Profile Achieved on Airport Runway

Grade control technology helps Shelly and Sands achieve stringent FAA tolerances.

Shelly and Sands' subcontractor used a Trimble GCS900 universal total station system on its Wirtgen W 200 milling machine, enabling correct grade to be achieved the first time.

Milling it in the Big Apple

A resurfacing project at New York's JFK airport tests advanced milling control technology.

Micro Surfacing Overcomes Road Failure Challenges

Unique micro surfacing process decreases potholes from 700 to seven at a fraction of the cost.

Intermountain Slurry Seal applied two micro surfacing layers over a 9-mile stretch of I-80 to create a level and safe driving surface.
