The key: Restoration of a Waterproof Surface

BRP Road Patch

Defect or TrenchHidden

structural damage

Restore the pavement defect as normal and then overlay the repair with a BRP Road Patch extending past repair edges by 100mm to seal

hidden structural damage and provide a truly waterproof surface

100mm

Does it cause a Bump?

NoYes

A bump (rumble strip, speed hump) can be created by applying larger Aggregate Patches to the surface.

Match the surface aggregate and the patch will integrate with the surface matrix becoming unnoticeable to road users

5 Step Application Procedure

Ensure surface is ≥10 degrees Celsius and rising.

Sweep area free of loose material.

Mark out the area to be sealed (defect area plus 100mm in all directions)

Cut the BRP Road Patch to the required size / shape.

Step 1 - Prep

Evenly apply cationic 60% (or similar) emulsion to the road surface and the back of the BRP Road Patch. Apply as if painting, no puddles and no dry areas.

When the emulsion turns black and is very sticky place BRP Road Patch over the prepared area.

Step 2 - Adhesion

Step 3 - Position

5 Step Application Procedure

Roll with rubber tyred vehicle, (no steel) In high stress turning or breaking areas, cold or if rain is imminent additional rolling is recommended.

Sand seal the edges and joints with a small quantity of emulsion and sand.

Step 4 - Seal Step 5 - Roll

5 Step Application Procedure

In 5 simple steps the issue has been quickly resolved, protected against further water damage, leaving a neat appearance with minimal financial & social costs.

The BRP Rumble Strips used in a parking area in Nelson, frequented by hoons at night and over the weekends, were a cost effective method of changing driver behaviour. The Council and residents were very pleased with the outcome.Alec Louverdis, Senior Executive Technical services, Nelson City Council. New Zealand
