Asphalt Concrete (“A.C.”) must provide a minimum of 3” [76 mm] layer
of asphalt over a minimum of 3” [76 mm] layer of Portland Cement Concrete (“P.C.C.”) ,
6” [152 mm] layer of asphalt over 6” [152 mm] layer of subbase, or 8” [200 mm] layer of asphalt
with no subbase.
Important:
Only 18” [460 mm] threaded rods, utilizing Trinity Highway approved
adhesive, can be used with asphalt foundations (p. 20). Contact Trinity Highway
