Abstract
A method of surface treating workpieces formed of cement, bituminous or other bonding materials to be coated with a cover layer, such as roads, airport and bridge surfaces, and the like, including the steps of roughening the surface to be coated and then cleaning the surface before applying the cover layer, where the roughness depth (RT) corresponds to one-half of the diameter of the largest grain (1) of the surface to be coated or of the cover layer and the width of the undulations of the surface to be coated correspond to the diameter of the largest grain. The undulations can be formed along a single axis or along two axes.
Claims5
A method of surface treating workpieces formed of cement, bituminous or other bonding materials where a surface of the work pieces has to be coated with a cover layer, such as road, airport, and bridge surfaces where the surface to be coated and the cover layer is formed of grains having a range of sizes and including a largest grain size, including the steps of roughening the surface and forming undulations extending in at least one direction and then cleaning the undulating surface to be coated before applying the coating, wherein the improvement comprises the step of forming the roughened undulating surface with a roughness depth (RT) corresponding to one-half of a diameter of the largest frame size of the grains forming the surface to be coated or of the cover layer the undulations (WL) of the roughened surface having a width corresponding at least to the diameter of the largest grain.
