Discussion: Road Construction and Maintenance: Equipment for the Construction of Bituminous Surfaces and Bituminous Pavements
The earliest bituminous pavements laid in America were made with coal-tar, and the first mixing methods were very crude indeed, hand labor being used almost exclusively. By degrees, suitable machinery was devised, and, as the industry grew and sheet-asphalt pavements were introduced and became popular, the development of paving plants was very rapid. In large cities, where the area of pavement to be laid was great, the plants were built as permanent fixtures.
