INSTALLATION / APPLICATION
 
Top Layer
 

1. Begin spraying the area to be treated. Follow the water tanker with the grader, using the scarifier to loosen the soil to a depth of about 10 centimeters,

2. After the soil is loosened, continue spraying the material with the RTX-300 solution and following with the grader. Blade the wetted material back and forth to totally break down any lumps and thoroughly mix the solution into the soil. You need to wet the soil to slightly more than OMC. ( when OMC is reached, you should be able to easily hand form a firm sample ball of the treated materia l).

3. Blade the treated material into a windrow at the shoulder.

 
Bottom Layer
 

4. Scarify, spray and mix another 10 centimeters of soil, spraying and blading back and forth until the soil is thoroughly mixed / wetted to OMC.

5. Grade and shape the bottom layer material and lightly compact (one pass without vibratory followed by one pass with vibratory.

6. Blade the treated top layer material onto the bottom layer and continue blading to shape and form the desired contour / crown. (reserve a small amount of treated fines at the shoulder for finishing.

7. Begin compacting the shaped and formed road. Use the reserved material to fill in any small holes or low spots. Continue compacting with full vibratory until the installation is very tight and then static roll for at least one hour.

 
Second Day
   

Usually, the finished road can be re-compacted on the second day. One or two passes with vibratory followed by an hour or so of static rolling.

If the weather is hot a light spray of plain water is recommended to retard the curing process.
