Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA): How Design-Build Brought Innovation to Intersections On-Demand Webinar

Topic Description:

Innovation is just one key aspect of asphalt pavement. SMA is a gap-graded, stone on stone asphalt mix designed to limit rutting and improve durability on high-traffic routes. Learn more about how this design-build project, led by Superior Bowen, delivered innovation and speed of construction with this unique product.

Learning Objectives:

  • Versatility and Performance of SMA
  • Speed of Construction
  • Traffic Control and Cost Management
  • Design Efficiency
  • Design-Build Project Planning

Presenters:

Jennifer Breuer, VP of Materials and Quality, Superior Bowen

PLEASE NOTE:

The ASPHALT CALCULATOR is a quick and easy tool to help you estimate how many tons of asphalt pavement your project will need. Just enter your project’s width (feet), length (feet), and planned nominal compacted thickness (inches), then click “CALCULATE.”

The calculator uses a mix density of 1.950 tons per cubic yard to estimate the total asphalt tonnage required.
