SAMI ONE BOX 8

TECHINT again trusts BITAFAL RENTALS the execution of a SAMI membrane.

Is currently running one recoating with conventional asphalt on Route 8 between 150 and 183 km below which is being applied stress relieving membrane (SAMI - by its acronym) emulsion IRRIGATION BITAFLEX 65 P40.

This particular stretch had been retreading Arnel at the end of 2009 with the first production of modified asphalt BITAFLEX AM3 our company supplied locally. That folder 3 cm, designed to last a couple of years, ended up serving for 8 years.

Current work involves milling the modified folder 3 cm, application of the emulsion P40 SAMI membrane and subsequent recoating of 5 cm with conventional asphalt.

BRIDGE ON BOARD Route 8 - Pando

together with modified asphalt elastic SA40 BITAFLEX

Saceem entrusted BITAFAL RENTALS running boards of the bridge over the A ° Pando on Route 8 within the duplication of road that the company is conducting COLIER. They were executed after a new recoating applied over the bridge, which was recently constructed. Joints made of elastic Juntastrech type are prepared with selected aggregates and sealer type BITAFLEX SA40.

Estimates for this type of specialized equipment together with work yields are between 25 and 35 linear meters per day. It is one of the most economical and durable solutions for expansion joints. It is therefore essential that the application is made by a trained crew, properly prepared for the application of binders and aggregates in hot and with the right quality for good durability.

we can again say that the performance of this technology speaks for itself as they have been applied hundred meters of these bridges together in our road network and continue to give good service with very low maintenance.

We share the photos of the work in progress.

RECYCLED foamed bitumen - ROUTE 102

The CVC recently started with recycling Route 102 using recycling technology in situ foamed bitumen. Thanks to the high yields of the technique is expected to have completed the tasks leaving a strong and flexible for future interventions take place only in the surface layer basis in about a month.

BITAFAL group HIGH PERFORMANCE EMULSION -BITAFLEX IRRIGATION 65 P40 -

The work consists of milling the previous route, due to the large cracking had the same block, the application of cement, recycled asphalt with added foaming and water, compaction and final grade. Then applying a curing irrigation awaiting a thin asphalt with conventional asphalt.

On the one hand, this intervention makes it clear the maintenance backlog that had this route of great importance for heavy vehicle traffic at the entrances of Montevideo and to the port. We must become conscious that interventions at the right time require less investment in maintenance.

De todas maneras, esta experiencia en conjunto con varias a nivel nacional, demuestran una vez más la importancia de estos equipos de reciclado en el aprovechamiento de nuestro patrimonio vial. La reutilización de materiales de calidad aplicados con maquinarias de alta tecnología abre nuevas fronteras en la construcción de nuestros caminos y carreteras.

HIGH PERFORMANCE EMULSION -BITAFLEX IRRIGATION 65 P40 -

Already there are several companies committed to quality work using the emulsion IRRIGATION BITAFLEX 65 P40 ensuring the life of bituminous treatment.

This product is being usad in various works in the country with excellent performance and in the first summer of use without detachments or risks rising by tires.

It is formulated with a high content of polymers that provide high cohesion and flexibility to the binder. During the summer and especially to the north, the emulsion P40 is being developed with hard asphalts which ensure suitable consistency and avoid potential exudates (with subsequent lifting) Excess binder.
