Concept Cold mix asphalt
• Cold mix asphalt is a combination of mineral aggregate and emulsified or cutback
asphalt with additives.
• The use of cold mix asphalt is usually limited to relatively low-volume rural roads.
• Cold mix asphalt pavement usually requires an overlay of hot mix asphalt or surface
treatment to resist traffic action.
• The components of cold mix asphalt can be mixed at a central plant or in-situ with a
traveling mixer
