heating.
City roads
In a test, some asphalt road with a speciallydeveloped soil color was colored white as much
as possible and the temperature differences in
this road were measured over a summer period.
It turned out that the light road surfaces reflect
significantly more solar radiation and were
therefore "cooler" than the traditional asphalt
pavements.
Of course the pavement painting, the traffic and
thus exposed to wear and it would be necessary
to renew the floor paint at regular intervals.A simpler and much more durable method is
the combination of asphalt and UHPC Ultra
High Performance Concrete binder. This
combination is used in many areas such as
industrial flooring, aircraft hangars, runways
and roads. This combination has a variety of
technical and cost advantages over standard
asphalt. Its main advantages are its extreme
resilience at any temperature and the much
higher compressive strength than Asphalt
alone.
The lifetime of this material combination is
several times higher than standard asphalt.
Likewise, this coating can easily withstand
the future traffic through its significantly
higher pressure resistance
The UHPC binder content can also be produced
on a white cement base. As you can see in the
photo, the binder would stain over the entire
layer thickness without the need for special
"coloring" measures.
Tunnel
In addition to reflecting solar radiation, very
light asphalt / UHPC surface has many other
advantages over traditional asphalt surfaces.
When used in tunnels, the light-colored road
When used in tunnels, the light-colored road
surface reduces the energy costs for lighting,
the floor areas are evenly light, which increases
safety, and the surface is considerably less
flammable than standard asphalt surface. The 
surface has a much longer service life with high
traffic loads than standard asphalt, which
drastically reduces repair times and repair costs
and increases traffic safety.
