QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 100% PASS
Asphaltic concrete - ANS A composite material that is prepared in a hot-mix plant and used
for construction of highway, parking lot, or airfield pavements capable of supporting high traffic
volumes and axle loads.
Automatic screed controls - ANS A system that overrides the self-leveling action of the
asphalt paver screed and enables paving to a predetermined grade and slope, using either a
rigid or a mobile type reference.
Baghouse - ANS Filter system at an asphalt plant to capture fine dust particles.
Binder - ANS The asphalt cement material in a paving mix used to bind the aggregate

Binder course - ANS A layer of asphalt mix placed between the base and the surface courses
in the pavement structure.
