Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of repair technology, and specifically to a method for seamless repair of asphalt pavement cracks based on tailings sand. Background Technology

[0002] Most of the road surface structures of highways and urban roads of grade A and above in my country are asphalt pavement. As the service life increases, the pavement is prone to cracks due to factors such as temperature changes, wet and dry cycles and repeated loading. If cracks are not maintained or repaired in time, they will expand or the entire road will be damaged. To avoid this accelerated road damage, it is necessary to repair the cracks in the asphalt pavement.

[0003] For cracks in asphalt pavement, the usual methods to treat them are to inject hot asphalt into the surface, or to seal the cracks with sealant or to stick crack tape. However, these methods have poor durability and are prone to cracking or falling off again. Moreover, because the materials are different from the original pavement surface materials, the treatment marks are obvious and affect the aesthetics.

[0004] In view of the problems of the traditional repair methods for asphalt pavement cracks, a traceless repair method for asphalt pavement cracks based on tailings sand is proposed. Summary of the Invention
