Bibliography

Gives requirements for the transport, laying and compaction of asphalt mixtures conforming to BS EN 13108-1, BS EN 13108-4 and BS EN 13108-5, and described in PD 6691, from the time that they leave the mixing plant until they are placed on the road ready to receive a superimposed layer or traffic.
