    Asphalt Prime Coat

    Now that makes more sense. However, I've seen 95% - 100% desnified bases fail due to having too much moisture plenty of times. Just because it is at optimum density does not mean that the optimum moisture is acceptable. I would say that was your problem. And if it was gravel, too much...

    Asphalt Prime Coat

    We know that rollout is going to happen so on a 12' lane we usually lay about 11' 10" to account. Yes the contractor is paid by the ton, however we run a yield and he is responsible for anything over that yeild. So we regulate him to where he is not just putting out hotmix and us paying for...

    Putting P.E. after your name

    My ex-boss was a project engineer. I took his place when he left. My office person gives me a hard time because my ex-boss made him change a letter because it said Name, P.E. instead of name, P.E., P.E. He said his name should be followed by Professional Engineer as well as Project Engineer...

    How much for an engagement ring?

    I spent about $1400, but I had been living alone and out of college for over 3 years so it wasn't that big of a deal. I bought from a place up in New York over the phone with the agreement(that I got in writing) that if the ring(mostly the diamond) did not meet the specs that they said, I could...

    Asphalt Prime Coat

    We placed the binder course today without the prime coat. One thing I noticed that is usually a 2" binder "rolls" out about an inch to an inch and a half. This time it rolled out about 3 inches and even more in some places. Anyone else ever observed this?

    Asphalt Prime Coat

    For you construction people, any stone that is put in as a base course requires a asphalt prime coat to avoid any water infiltration and to keep the internal moisture in the stone base. SO, my arguement is that if the contractor plans on laying asphalt as soon as the base is tight bladed, what...

    Twas the Night Before (almost)

    I had a few drinks the night before to make me relax and get to sleep. Only a few though, like 3 and they weren't strong. I wouldn't recommend getting wasted the night before. My wife and I stayed in motel, had some drinks, & watched a movie. Was asleep by like 9:30.
