A huge number of roads and access ways exist today in varying degrees of dis-repair, having suffered from a lack of investment for many years. The use of new materials to upgrade the roadways is prohibitively expensive and the roads are therefore left to get worse. In many cases temporary topping up of the potholes is seen as a quick fix only to appear costly when the potholes quickly re-appear.

An alternative is available. The principle rules of road formation remain and must be adhered to if the desired results are to achieved. Our machines are out working succesfully doing what was asked of them. We detail below how we suggest our machinery to be utilised and the reasoning behind each step.

In principle the intergrated use and correct management of our plant and equipment offers our customers the ability to ecconomically reclaim or restore road and trackways, yet importantly offer a cost effective, profitable, proffesional contract service.

Remember Rule Number 1 The road needs foundations and shape to anchor the rest of the road to. Ripping is good for the road!

The Crusher sizes the material to form enough fines to bind the road and create a running surface. The correct proportions of material from fines through to the loosened larger material from ripping means that the WHOLE ROAD is bound together. The use of hydraulically adjustable anvils controls the sizing of the output from the crusher.

Rule Number 2. That material needs correct sizing to bind the whole of the formation together.

The Grader shapes the surface of the road way to allow for surface water run off and to create a smooth running surface. It is imperative that the road follows the natural shape of land around it. Allowing water to run into calverts to one side or off a central camber is at the hands of the operator. This ability to move the material and shape the road is one of the most important fundamental rules of road formation.

Rule Number 3. To shape the road and control where the water drains to.

The Vibrating plates offer unrivalled compaction to create the finished roadway with their unique ability to follow the camber of the road. Three independant plates vibrate the stone, and importantly, the stones around them allowing unrivaled compaction and due to the lower fraction loosened by earlier ripping the"locking in" of the road. The compaction and subsequent exclusion of air pockets reduces the ingress of water and the overall longevity of the road. Grading and compaction give you the finished product.

Rule number 4. Proper compaction of the whole road width locks the road together and keeps water out.

To further enhance the road and give a longer life span the introduction of binders to the road way can enhance the performace of the roadway and bind the aggregate to create a surface with improved durability. The inclusion of cement can create an effective surface for use in yards and as an alternative to concrete in many cases.

Rule Number 5. Specify your roadway for the use you intend to use it for, not on what you intend to spend on it.
