HOT ASPHALT APPLICATION

            

Hot asphalt is a material used in the construction and renewal of asphalt surfaces. It is generally preferred in heavily used areas such as high-traffic roads, motorwa

Hot asphalt consists of a mixture of bitumen and aggregate (materials such as stone, sand, and gravel). Bitumen is a material obtained from petroleum refineries and provides the adhesive properties of hot asphalt. Aggregate, on the other hand, provides structural strength to the mixture and resists the temperature of the bitumen.

Hot asphalt application is carried out using specialised equipment. First, the surface is cleaned and any cracks or gaps are filled. Next, the bitumen mixture is prepared and an asphalt roller is used to heat it. The bitumen mixture is heated, then mixed with aggregate and loaded onto the asphalt roller. The asphalt roller applies the bitumen mixture to the surface and smooths it out.

It may vary depending on the air temperature. In cold weather conditions, the bitumen mixture may cool more quickly and the application time may be reduced. In hot weather conditions, the bitumen mixture may dry more quickly and cracks may form on the surface.

Hot asphalt application is an effective method for creating a high-quality road surface. However, it requires special equipment and experienced workers during implementation and is therefore costly.
