Roller
Cost: $6,000 - $200,000
Weight: 1,360 lb. - 50,500 lb.
For
asphalt pavement to remain smooth and level in use, it has to be
prepared after the paving machines leave. Rollers enter the job
at this point, using a planned combination of weight and speed to
compress the asphalt properly. Skilled operators can minimize many
problem areas left by paving equipment, and produce a long-lasting
flat-and-level surface. |
