THE APPLICATION OF THE SECOND ASPHALT TO THE AUTODROMO HERMANOS RODRIGUEZ HAS BEGUN
• Progress of 90% on the Pit Building, 85% on Media Center and 98% on Nursery.
Last Friday began the tests required to adjust the asphalt plant for the second layer of the renewed track of the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. This is a middle layer that works as a leveler, which is why it is used exclusively on track and not on the run offs or escapes. It is best known as “Binder” is 2cm thick and is processed differently from the fist layer, “Base Course” 5cm which is applied with an asphalt paving.
To carry out this process, three paving are used to avoid the longitudinal joint of fresh batch, and six steamrollers or compaction with tandem rollers, besides two transfer vehicles which are supplier machines that maintain the right temperature of the mixture and fill one by one. There is a fourth paving machine that will be used in Curve 1 which is one of the widest areas of the track with 19 meters. The asphalt mixture is used on the second and third layer, it is modified with polymers under FIA specifications to get the one degree approval in order to obtain the maximum category in motorsports.
For this stage it is required over 50 workers and operators, besides supervisors. Once “Base Binder” is finished, the asphalt mixing plant will be calibrated again and placed at the complex Moises Solana to apply the last layer, the “Base Wearing” with 3cm thick.
As for the buildings, the current progress is 90 % on the Pit Building, 85% on the Media Center, and 98% on the Nursery.
