anchoring. Composition, age, hardness, thickness and regional asphalt
variables will guide anchoring method. The following are guidelines:
-
Anchor at ends of each section in addition to guidelines indicated
below.
-
New, softer or thinner asphalt - 3/8” x 10” spiral
steel spikes (12” on center) typical.
