Tack Coat
Prime Coat
Seal Coat
It is used for:
Waterproofing the surface
Improving skid resistance
Improving surface finish and sealing surface cracks
Surface Course
Purpose:
To provide resistance to frictional stresses caused by
moving vehicles
To provide skid resistance
To waterproof the pavement structure
Binder Course
Purpose:
To distribute the stresses due to vehicle loading over a
large area
To reduce the stresses and strains in the underlying layers
To reduce the cost of the pavement
Both prime coat and tack coat are thin layers of bitumen.
