Available

Loose

Conversion factor: Approximately 2.0 tonnes per m³
Conforms to: SHW Clause 807, BS EN 13285

Typical Uses

  • Used to create an easily compacted load bearing sub-base and backfill, due to its cohesive qualities

  • It is often used as a hard core for temporary roadways, bridleways, site compounds and as a sub-base

  • Normally supplied as a 0-50mm grade, it will work well even if not surfaced for some time

     

Useful Information

  • It does not comply to Type 1 due to the possible  high bitumen binder content

  • Not to be confused with other materials such as road planings, which are not processed and do not comply to any grading

  • 100% crushed asphalt will not compact as tightly as road planings due to the shape created by crushing

  • Though not sold as a permeable product it will have good drainage qualities due to the bitumen content
