Title: SEAL COATS IN MANITOBA
Accession Number: 00472634
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: Pavement seal coats of asphalt and aggregate have been used in Manitoba, Canada, for many years. They are employed as both a dust-free surface on low-volume roads and a wearing surface on pavement. In the latter application, the subject of this paper, seal coats are applied to seal out moisture, provide a lighter colored surface for nighttime visibility, improve skid resistance, and reduce pavement oxidation. A side benefit is the improvement in appearance by covering sealed and unsealed cracks and any patching that had been required. More than 300 miles of seal coats are placed annually by two permanent summer crews. Application and cost data relative to Manitoba's program are presented.
