01248 353 595 Dense bitumen macadam doesnt come in one standard thickness – its made to suit the job. On most real-world projects, a layer is in the region of a few centimetres thick, with heavier-duty roads and yards needing a deeper build-up than light-use areas like small car parks or access roads. The exact thickness is set at the design stage.
This means the finished pavement can cope with the expected traffic and tie in properly with the layers beneath and the surface course above.
