Our full-service testing laboratories
perform a variety of tests and mix designs for hot mix
asphalt, including Superpave, and cold recycled asphalt. We
have monitored the placement of more than three million tons
of asphalt material and adhere to specifications that will
extend pavement life and reduce construction and maintenance
cost. Why ATL?

Lightweight Profilometer Services |
|
|
The Lightweight Profilometer (LWP) is designed for
smoothness control on new or overlay pavements. It is
used to profile new road surfaces within hours after
paving, so that paving contractors can save money by
taking corrective action, such as milling or filling, to
meet smoothness specifications, before the surface is
fully hardened or “set”. |
