At high temperatures, the asphalt will become less viscous and more like a free-flowing liquid. At low temperatures, it will solidify.

Is lava most likely to form to high or low viscosity lava?

Low--it's easier for it to harden when it's not flowing. This is also why cement mixers spin to keep the cement from hardening.


List five layers of construction in footways and carriageways?

Subgrade: The natural soil or rock layer at the bottom. Subbase: Layer of aggregate material placed on top of the subgrade. Base course: Layer of cement-treated or asphalt-treated aggregate material. Binder course: Layer of asphalt concrete or cement concrete providing strength and stability. Surface course: The top layer of asphalt or concrete providing smoothness and skid resistance.


Which would melt ice faster asphalt or blacktop and why?

Both asphalt and blacktop are composed of the same basic materials like stone, sand, and asphalt cement. Therefore, they would melt ice at a similar rate as they both absorb heat from the sun quickly due to their dark color, which helps to accelerate the melting process.


In the evening snow falls on a cement sidewalk and on a black top playground. which surface will melt the snow faster and why?

The blacktop playground will melt the snow faster than the cement sidewalk. This is because blacktop, or asphalt, absorbs more heat from the sun due to its darker color, which increases its surface temperature. As a result, the heat from the blacktop helps to melt the snow more quickly compared to the lighter-colored cement sidewalk, which reflects more sunlight and retains less heat.


What is the purpose of a penetration test?

The penetration test is a test for the evaluation of a computer security system or network by mimicking an attack from external and internal threats. The purpose of the penetration test is to do a full security audit.

What is the melting point of asphalt cement?

Asphalt cement is an amorphous polymer, which makes defining the melting point difficult. It's more common to refer to the glassy-transition temperature and the softening temperature. The glassy-transition temperature of asphalt cement is between -35 °C to -10 °C and the softening point ranges from 30 °C to 150 °C. While these temperatures vary for each asphalt, exact values an be determined with a DSC test and the ring and ball test respectfully.

Which object would heat up more most rapidly Water grassasphlt cement?

Asphalt would heat up the most rapidly among water, grass, asphalt, and cement. Asphalt has a lower specific heat capacity compared to water, grass, and cement, meaning it requires less energy to raise its temperature. Additionally, asphalt is a dark material that absorbs more sunlight, which accelerates its heating process.

What is the difference between cold mix asphalt and cutback asphalt?

Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of aggregate and asphalt. Cutback asphalt is a liquid asphalt. Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of Aggregate and Asphalt. The Asphalt is usually am emulsion asphalt or a cutback asphalt. An emulsion asphalt is asphalt cement blended with water. Cutback asphalt is asphalt cement blended with a fuel oil, kerosene, or a naptha. The water, fuel oil, kerosene or Naphta evaporates and leaves the asphalt.
