UHPC Phalt is a grouted macadam comprising an open graded asphalt
that is flooded with high strength microsilica based mortars. The open
graded asphalt is mixed to a design mix at a local asphalt plant and
delivered to site in tipper trucks. It is placed via traditional paving
techniques.
The UHPC Phalt mortars are delivered in 1 tonne bags and
mixed via a continuous flow shaftmixer and pump machine. The mortar is
mixed for a certain amount of time to achieve correct viscosity then
flooded via a large hose onto the asphalt matrix.
UHPC Phalt can be laid at depths of 30 mm / 1,18 in upwards (typically maximum depth used is 40 mm /1,57 in). UHPC Phalt is the top layer of the pavement that is supported by a basecourse layer. The basecourse layer can vary dependent on environment and loadings, internal or external applications. Preferred basecourse materials to support the UHPC Phalt topping are high modulus macadam basecourse. CBM bases are ideal for use for large internal areas.
