6.09.02 Description
Asphalt compaction can only be done in a special temperature range.
With an unfavorable asphalt temperature, the following damage can
occur:
■
Damage caused by "pushing" the asphalt when the asphalt
temperature is too high.
■
Asphalt matrix destruction when compacting at an excessively low
temperature.
The asphalt temperature measuring system (HAMM Temperature Meter)
informs the driver of the surface temperature of the asphalt beneath the
