Road base course

The base course or basecourse in pavements is a layer of material in an asphalt roadway, race track, riding arena, or sporting field. It is located under the surface layer consisting of the wearing course and sometimes an extra binder course. Roadbase materials are an integral part of road pavement construction.

The final pavement surface is the wearing course , generally a sealed layer of bitumen and aggregate, either as a single aggregate on bitumen, or a mixture of stone and aggregate known as asphalt. The surface is then compacted with tonne roller as the base course is laid with . Typically, base course stabilization is used for improving the structure of an old road , and the method utilises existing material from the old road.

Alternatives to stabilizations are an unbound base course of crushed aggregate or a asphalt concrete base course. Roads are exposed to particularly high stresses when the water contained in. In many cases, a bound base course is overlaid over the unbound base course. The WORK to be performed includes the preparation of the aggregate base course.

Roadbases such as sub-base and base course materials are used in road construction and under paved areas. We deliver roadbase materials at . Base courses are usually constructed out of crushed aggregate or HMA. Just like the foundation of a building ensures a long-lasting structure, a solid road base is the key to durable roads, driveways, parking lots, and walkways.
