In the Texas Panhandle it's usually the lesser traveled county roads that get the chip seal and it's to extend the life of the hotmix under. It's to save taxpayers from the poorhouse. A sweeper or "Versabroom" comes along behind the pneumatic rollers that follow the steel wheeled rollers and puts any chips that are left loose to the ditch . . . well the most of those anyway. Once the traffic travels it for a day you don't get hardly any loose chip into windshields. As for moving around the crews, when the flag person says slow down it's for several reasons, your windshields being one of those. You sure won't want to sneak around that flagman if he stops you at an intersection before the rock gets put down. That black stuff is the sticky.
I personally shot a half a million gallons of oil a year for about 14 yrs. This process seals all the cracks and provides better traction. It must be properly swept. I admit there still can be some stone that may be loose. The same people that bitch about this process are the same ones that bitch about the potholes that it prevents. What are the rates? 2.8 / 15llbsy. Just a guess.
Here in Australia and New Zealand, this is called chip-sealing. All our roads are of this construction. It works really well, gives great traction in the rain and is long lasting. Never seen beige coloured chip though!
First there was dirt roads. Then gravel. Followed by blacktop and concrete, and now we're back to gravel. We're going backwards. And then, the township gets to use our cars like steamrollers to finish the process, and we have to deal with the paint and glass chips from the stones. Perfect.
2 Thumbs to C.D.O.T. - Colorado Department of Transportation. They always have kept Colo. roads in good repair. Just another great day in my home state of Colorado.
I’d like to see a close up of what kind of material they’re spreading. How long does it last? Does it wear out and flake off? Wash away? Is it always that light color?
The trucks have a round bar hitch on back. The chip box machine has a hydraulic arm that comes down and connects to the truck. The chipper is very heavy and powerful. The trucks are easily pulled in N. Making corners for drivers in the truck is a different story however. New drivers usually mess that up.
@@NeilLB7 With the 6 or 12 yard trucks if they'll just raise that bed all the way up and it will fit against the back of the spreader box and pretty much steer itself.
We used to put out 8 to 10 each 6 square yard truckloads per shot or 4 or 5 each 12 yard loads. I'm recollecting / guessing the shots might be about 1/6th of a mile for just one lane? An asphalt truck "painter" might better know the exact shot distance. Then he loads up, heats the bars and does it again . . . all the sunny day long
@@epistte this will increase the life of old asphalt plus also increase friction as the asphals became smooth and slipery in wet with the passage of time
@@ejazahmed7836 nah, the stones come off for the entire life of the road. it's fucking awful. They did this to my sister's street 10 years ago and it's still happening.
They do it in the summer and it's totally flat hard and smooth just like the road they are putting it on in about a week so your comment about snow plows and tax payers makes no sense. By the time the snow flys that road is better equipped to handle a snow plow than a much softer and more brittle asphalt one. Whatever doesn't get pushed into the ground is usually moved to the side of the road by vehicles or rain which creates a good base for a "shoulder". Whatevers left in the middle of the road is usually swept before line stripping and used for some other purpose.
@@MrWisdom79 You need to come to Pennsylvania then. The state does this all the time and after 2 weeks of the "chip" bouncing off your windshield it's all off the road and you're left with just the "tar" which melts in the sun and is slicker than owl shit when it rains or snows. I say it's a waste of time and money and a good way to pinch a hole in the seat of your vehicle in bad weather.
@@davidfitzgerald3653 In this process a new wear surface is created on an otherwise decent road that is beginning to show signs of aging. This moves out the need to repave several more years. It also seals up micro cracks to prevent water from entering pavement. It's just one form of pavement preservation techniques.
Send some of this to Chicago we really need it roads here are never finished the only people that work on the roads are the ones that put the orange barrels because they are millions worst roads in the world always under construction and expensive toll ways
The tar acts as a layer, to stop moisture ingress into the already existing cracks, which then freeze causing holes in the road. And the chip is to cover the tar and adds grip to the road
Когда-то верхний слой асфальта так сказать обшлифовывается и становится гладким, скольским. Чтобы восстановить сцепляемость колёс с асфальтом поливают битумом как клеющим средством и посыпоют гранитной крошкой.
Actually you might as well wait for a minute before spreading behind that distributor if you can get the inspectors OK. State handbook be damned, you get a better chip spread in the next gear up.
@@daveklein2826 An Etnyre spreads better in third gear than second if only because you've got the gate open wider, You get a more even spread with a lot of the rock types without 1/2" diameter "holiday" spots where the asphalt shows throughout. If your covering two lanes at once you'll have to go back to the start of the shot to cover the other lane anyway and the distributor will be in the ditch taking on more asphalt by the time you're at the end.
I cannot for the life of me understand the thought process behind this. Indiana DOT does this on highly travelled roadways and all it causes is heartaches for motorists and motorcyclist ! I have personally witnessed a motorcycle crash due to this garbage
This is the 2nd video I've seen of this method. Is this like half-ass, reverse asphalt paving or what. Is it what happens with detrimental budget cuts.
David N It sucks, they do it on our backroads in NJ. As soon as you get full sun and 85+ F all the tar comes through and they have to spread stone dust on top to keep the tar down, otherwise you’re basically just driving on tar. Worst part is they do it every two or three years which builds up a big crown on the road which makes culverts on either side and makes it a one lane road
First off, I call bs. Cdot is NOT that efficient on anything they do. It'd take them a week in real life to get that distance. 2 I agree with the other comments, this is a waste of tax payer money.
After watching 10 of these videos I still don't get why do they do that. What's the purpose of sealing and laying pebbles on to your road. Here road service makes sure roads are free of all that. When asphalt is worn out it gets replaced.
Asphalt roads break down in the sun. Water begins to penetrate the surface. Water freezes in the winter and expands. Asphalt breaks up and pot holes appear. Chip oil reseals the surface of the road and keeps water out. Chips provide new anti skid wear surface. Should be redone every 6 to 8 years. Cost per mile to chip seal $20,000 to $30,000 per mile. Cost to re-pave/reconstruct $500,000 to $1,000,000 per mile. Asphalt that is not chip sealed “will” go back to gravel in as little as 20 years. Chip seal saves taxpayers millions.
I chip sealed for over 50 yrs an if my people went that slow they would have benn let go the first day. 5 tankers in 8 hrs if not 6 not counting 2 loads of prime. Get it together or your gone.
Real stupid to spend this kind of money resurfacing a road and leave the shoulders high so the water dont run off as fast as possible. They should have been removed first.
Kudos to the camera man for keeping the camera as still as possible throughout the earthquake. He is the real hero we don't deserve, but need.

Where we are from this is called armour coating. It can extend the life of asphalt 7 to 10 years in some cases.
Richard Denton it’s a complete and total waste of taxpayers dollars, gone by the end of the first winter of plowing!
You spray tar oil down spread your gravel over it let traffic pound it down for a few days then sweep off excess.

Interesting.. I'm sure someone thought this would be cheaper then asphalt but how is it when the time comes to plow it?..
That will become as hard as asphalt and virtually indistinguishable after a week or two of vehicle traffic. It holds up very well to plowing.
