The test site was constructed on October 1, 2004. Prior to grading the site for the test section, the asphalt driveway repair area was proof-rolled with a loaded water truck. Construction of the test section was conducted by Soil Retention crews and was done under the direction of Dean Sandri, PE. The “pavement section” consisted of the Drivable Grass (1.5 inch thickness) “wearing surface” underlain by a one-half to one inch thickness of sand leveling bed and a variable thickness of crushed miscellaneous base (CMB); all of which was placed directly on top of the existing sub-grade soils (See Figure 1). A geotextile separator (Mirafi 140N) asphalt driveway repair was placed between the subgrade and aggregate base to ensure that mixing of the asphalt driveway repair two would be minimized. asphalt driveway repair A rigid concrete apron was provided at each end of the test asphalt driveway repair section to transition vehicular traffic on and off of the pavement.
