Reviewing the notes from previous years, we are When winter with a recurring theme. The gravillados in winter and care must be taken to prevent landslides.

This year is no exception, exactly the opposite, there is more surface treatments works underway in all previous years and landslides came in several of them.

Como siempre, la primera culpable es la emulsión, que es exactamente la misma que se usó días anteriores, con 10 o 15°C mas y no hubieron inconvenientes. Debemos entender que la veda que dispone el Pliego de Vialidad tiene su fundamento técnico en evitar estos desprendimientos si se trabaja de forma “tradicional” ya que las condiciones de curado de las emulsiones se ven seriamente modificadas con el frío.

Moreover, we note with pride that works in which they have implemented multiple treatments Latched (TMT®) and has been used exactly the same emulsion in defective works, do not have a single stone detachment.

We leave the note describing best practices to avoid problems of landslides in winter: SEVEN RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE OF EMULSIONS IN WINTER

We recently implemented TMT® in several plays and come behaved very satisfactorily. We can highlight a stretch of Route 23 and Route 94 by Eduardo Martinez, also CVC on Route 8 and Route 96. Cujo in All these works were carried out with emulsions in May and have had no problems.
