Why Bitumens Are Used In Road Construction
The primary use of bitumen is in road construction, where it's used as the glue or binder mixed with aggregate particles to create asphalt concrete. It's used in road construction to bring flexibility to pavements and ensure they strongly bind and hold the construction components together and provide a smooth and levelled surface for the moving vehicles.
Below are the properties of bitumens as they continue to be favoured as the most important material in construction.
• They consist of adhesives which bind together all the components without bringing about any positive or negative changes in their properties.
• Waterproof: Bitumen is insoluble in water and can serve as an effective sealant.
• Strong: Though the coarse aggregates are the main load-bearing component in a pavement, bitumen or asphalt also play a vital role in distributing the traffic loads to the layers beneath.
• Durable: Bitumen lives up to twenty years if maintained properly throughout the pavement life.
• Versatile: Bitumen is a relatively easy to use the material because of its thermoplastic property. It can be spread easily along the underlying pavement layers as it liquefies when heated making the job easier and hardens in a solid mass when cooled.
• Economical: It is available in cheaper rates almost all over the world
If you need to be supplied with quality, reliable and long-lasting bitumen, come to Colas East Africa Ltd, where quality is natured.

Read MoreBenefits Of Constructing Roads Using Asphalt
Good roads are crucial in the economic growth of a country since they provide increased mobility for people, goods and services. Using asphalt materials in road construction and maintenance improve the durability and efficiency of roads. The following are advantages of using asphalt material on road constructions: -
• Asphalt are cost efficient in that they have low initial costs, lasts long, and due to its recyclability, has a residual value greater than other pavements.
• They are smooth and comfortable making driving smooth and enjoyable.
• New asphalt technology ensures rapid dispersal and drainage of surface water, reducing water spray and therefore, improving visibility for the driver in wet conditions. The porous asphalt materials dramatically reduce blinding spray, and by dispersing surface water they also reduce the risk of aquaplaning and increase the visibility of road markings.
• Asphalt pavements are fast to construct. Because asphalt effectively does not need “cure” time, motorists can use roadways as soon as the last roller leaves the construction zone
• By using asphalt on road surfaces it can reduce noise both inside and outside the car, helping to prevent accidents by alleviating a source of stress that contributes to driver fatigue.
While constructing roads it best you construct quality roads by using the right asphalt materials from Colas East Africa Ltd.

Read MoreWhat is Slurry Seal?
Slurry seal is a mixture of asphalt emulsion, graded aggregates, mineral filler, water and other additives. The asphalt emulsion serves as the binder, holding the crushed aggregate together and bonding the slurry to the old surface to which it is being applied.
Slurry Seals are for sealing aged and raveled pavements, filling minor cracks, restoring skid resistance and restoring aesthetic appeal. It may be used on freeways, residential streets, parking lots, driveways and any area that needs the pavement to be preserved.
When constructing pavements make sure you improve it functionality and reliability by making sure you use slurries from Coals East Africa Ltd.

Read MoreImportance of using bitumen-waterproofing membranes…
The bitumen based waterproofing membranes are used almost everywhere in buildings where there is water contact. It is always important to use a bitumen waterproofing membranes to ensure that there is no corrosion of steel, which yields lower load bearing capacity and even a sudden collapse during a powerful quake that may cause the collapsing of your building.
The waterproofing application provides not only safety of building but also healthy and comfortable environments by avoiding formation of bacteria and mold, and water from dripping off the roof or ceiling.
