Abstract:

In this paper are presented the state of the art of chip sealing equipment in France (asphalt distributors and chip spreaders) and the methods and tools that have been developed and used during the last 15 years to improve this equipment. Equipment test benches appear to improve quality control of the equipment. Success to date is due to coordinated action of equipment manufacturers, road contractors, and the administration. An automatic patching machine or flexible compound spreader that incorporates technologies of asphalt distributors, chip spreaders, and compactors is discussed briefly.
