Latex Modified Surface Treatment as a SAMI (Stress Absorbing Membrane Interlayer)
The use of a stress absorbing membrane interlayer (SAMI) is not a new concept. This project used the surface treatment which consists of a double seal coat with an asphalt modified with latex rubber that was added to the asphalt emulsion and blended in the distributor for 15 minutes. The project consisted of a section that was cracked badly with reflective cracks and alligatored which has presented problems with maintaining a good bond with the bituminous overlay. The achievement of a longer service life of this pavement section is the main purpose of this experimental project.
