Lime, Aggregate, Cement, Emulsion (L.A.C.E.): An Innovative Surface Treatment

摘要

This report describes an innovative method for treating flushed or slick wheelpaths. A maintance team from the Abilene District developed and placed an experimental mix on U.S. 80 and found that the treatment represented a cost-effective, durable, nontoxica procedure for repairing asphalt (or other) surfaces. Because its fundamental ingredients consisted of lime, aggregate, cement, and emulsion, the process was termed 'L.A.C.E.' friction course.
