Description | ||
---|---|---|
DuraTough is a semiflexible surfacing system for pavement areas that are subject to heavy and/or slow-moving traffic, or where a durable, hard-wearing, impermeable, and fuel resistant surface is required. DuraTough combines the flexibility of asphalt pavement, with the strength and imperviousness of concrete pavement, in a two-part semi-rigid pavement. It is durable and long lasting. DuraTough is a grouted composite pavement. It is a cost-effective and fast curing alternative to concrete pavement. DuraTough can be opened to pedestrians within 3 hours and accept vehicular traffic within 24 hours. The strength of DuraTough stems from the base of gap-graded asphalt whose voids are filled with a cementitious grout. Once the grout has cured it has strength similar to that of concrete, with more flexibility; which reduces cracking and jointing requirements. The impervious surface with the cementitious grout prevents volatiles from penetrating the asphalt structure and compromising the pavement’s integrity Benefits: Tintable for delineating laneways, cordoning off sites or safety zoning Light colour that increases safety and reduces lighting requirements Resistant to salt and chemicals, including fuels and deicing fluid Five times stronger than conventional asphalt pavements Reduced overall pavement structure Quick access, within 24 hours Gains 18 MPa within 24 hours Impermeable surface No shoving or rutting Strength of concrete Low maintenance |
