TYPES OF ASPHALT PROBLEMS
Base problems
Water infiltration is the largest contributing factor in adversely affecting the asphalt structure. Standing water will eventually destroy the asphalt in this area. The problem is most commonly caused by frost expansion/contraction in the gravel base or in the sub-grade. At a minimum these areas should sub excavated and full depth replaced.
Cracks
Pavement failure starts with a crack. Asphalt cracking is caused primarily by the effects of sun and moisture and ground movements. Once the crack has reached the surface, moisture is able to reach the pavement’s subsurface and pond, leading to spalling from freeze/thaw cycles.
Surface Problems
Ravelling or very porous asphalt,
Alligatored areas, Oil spots, Old or badly dried out asphalt, Special Cleaning Problems.
