Cost Effectiveness Study - Bare Base Surfacing Requirements.

Abstract

This evaluation compares newly developed polyester resin construction concepts to those in current practice which could be considered for use in meeting bare base surfacing requirements. The applications considered include airfields, roadways, vehicle parking areas, storage areas, sidewalks, shelter flooring, and general non-traffic soil control. Overall, this study shows that polyester construction can reduce present cost, labor and material requirements by a very significant amount and that resin stabilization can be used effectively as a waterproofing and surfacing anchoring medium over a wide range of conditions.
