DIAMOND GRINDING

Diamond Grinding is a proven and cost effective means of restoring pavement ride quality. When properly done, highway grinding & rehabilitation also extends pavement life while increasing skid resistance. Rehabilitated roads and runways shed water faster, reduce hydroplaning and improve braking ability.

Diamond grinding restores rideability by removing surface irregularities caused during construction or through repeated traffic loading over time. The immediate effect of diamond grinding is a significant improvement in the smoothness of a pavement. Another important effect of diamond grinding is the considerable increase in surface macrotexture and consequent improvement in skid resistance, noise reduction and safety.

ADVANTAGES

Enhance Surface Texture and Skid Resistance. The corrugated surface increases macrotexture and provides ample channels for water to displace beneath vehicle tires, reducing hydroplaning potential.

More Friction. Improves cornering friction, providing directional stability by tire tread-pavement groove interlock.

Non Invasive. Can be accomplished during off-peak hours with short lane closures, without closing adjacent lanes.

Multipurpose. Can also be used on all road classes, from interstates to city streets.

Smoothness. Provides a smooth surface which is often as good as new pavement.

Reduce Road Noise. Its longitudinal texture provides a quieter surface than most transverse textures.
