REDUCING ASPHALT THICKNESS


One of the many great features of FORTA-FI® fiber-reinforcement for asphalt is the flexibility it gives engineers in the design of roadways, airfields, parking lots, and trails.  Asphalt thickness can be reduced by up to 35% in some cases simply by adding 1 lb. of FORTA-FI® fiber per 1 ton of asphalt.  Imagine the potential cost savings possible by reducing the amount of asphalt material used in a full-depth reclamation project by 10-35%! 


The three-dimensional strength of FORTA-FI® in your job-mix formula provides toughness and durability in the asphalt placement to help it resist premature cracking and rutting.  The fibers are added at the production plant, and no modifications are necessary to traditional asphalt paving practices.  FORTA-FI® is an affordable way to reinforce asphalt while stretching your paving dollars.  Contact FORTA® Corporation at (800) 245-0306 to learn more about Going Longer…Going Stronger with FORTA-FI®!
