    Pavement planing asphalt overlay with chip seal base

    Thank you. With the cores varying throughout, I'll probably just mill the full 3 inches and put some repair quantities in the plans. FYI-The road is about 2 miles long and with 18 cores,10 showed an overlay thickness of 1.25" to 2.75" (avg of 2 inches), the remaining cores were over 3 inches...

    Pavement planing asphalt overlay with chip seal base

    I am working on a pavement rehab project, that we will be pavement planing the asphalt to a certain depth (prefer 3" th) and placing an asphalt overlay (3"). We have received cores and have found that there is a chip seal base where some locations of the asphalt overlay is only 1-1/4" thick...

    Repair and overlay existing asphalt parking lot

    Ron - thanks for the reply. Leaving only 1" of asphalt after milling, will that hold up under the weight of the pavers and asphalt trucks? Unfortunately, the use of a crack relief layer or a synthetic grid is not feasible due to cost. We only have enough funds to place a 1.25" to 1.5" overlay...

    water will continuously be dumped into the sump. So there will always be a need for the pump to be running. Haven't really got that far in regards to failing. I think there would probably be a warning lite to go off or something along that line.

    is there a continuously running pump

    thanks. One distributor I am dealing with says that all the pumps and manufacturer's he deals with are cycled. One pump can not run continuously. I would need to run 2 pumps that alternate cycles.

    is there a continuously running pump

    I need to continuously pump water from a large ditch. I will have water from the ditch flowing by gravity about 10-15cfs into a wet well which the pump will be placed in. I will then need to pump the water out of the wet well at between 10-15 cfs. This pump will run 24 hours a day for about...
