Astec, in conjunction with Talley Construction Co, paved a three-acre lot with pervious pavement.The paving was an opportunity to showcase an innovative technology for achieving pervious pavement.For this, the lot was paved using warm-mix asphalt produced at Talley with the Astec Double Barrel Green? System.For the Astec project, the lot was paved with warm mix asphalt containing RAP. Astec?s paved lot design can retain three in?ches of water. Rainfall goes straight through the as?phalt into the stone layer, and is then leached into the sub?grade.Hold basins, retention ponds, or piping are not needed with perveous pavement. It allows full space to be used and a larger area to be developed since addi?tional spa?ce for storm wa?ter mana?ge?ment systems is not required.
