VAASPHALT.ORG 17 Not only was this project fast-paced, but it also required rigorous quality control checks throughout the production process. Every longitudinal joint had to be saw cut and cleaned before placing the adjacent lane, and each concrete tie-in was paved parallel to the concrete surface and compacted with a special rubber tire roller. of the concrete joint sealant on the concrete runway overruns and other miscellaneous work. These updates forced the team to completely reschedule the paving sequence of work to maximize daily productions while working concurrently through redesign. In addition, the final paving sequence was designed to eliminate all transverse joints except those at concrete tie-ins to improve the surface smoothness of the final product. Branscome worked efficiently through these conditions and recycled over 90% of the waste material on the project, which diverted over 100,000 tons of concrete, asphalt, and soils from landfills. The mile-long runway was ready for military aircraft operations on July 19, 2021. PAVING AGAINST THE CLOCK CHAMBERS FIELD RUNWAY-NS NORFOLK
