Walk through the steps the City of Lincoln took to test and assess the effectiveness of GSB-88® for City projects. STEP #1: September 2016: (This project will be the first time The City of Lincoln Public Works and Utilities Department will use GSB-88® Gilsonite Sealer Binder.) GSB-88® is approved and applied to a test strip on an arterial road; Old Cheney Road from Hunts Drive to Salt Valley View. The road will reopen in the afternoon. THE EXPECTATION: “This innovative p

What’s IT About? Peanut-butter vs. Butter Typical sealcoats lay up on the surface much like peanut-butter sits on top of bread. These coatings do not penetrate into the matrix and therefore performance is tied directly to how much is left on top to protect the binder. So, once the surface erodes away, the binder that holds your pavement together is exposed to the elements. Even if you patch the damage, the structural break-down continues; water and seepage expand and contract

An interview with Myron Parizek, Benton County Engineer Gee: How many years have you been putting GSB® down? Parizek: We started the application in 2004, this would be the 13th season applying GSB® to various County roads. Gee: About how many miles have you been doing a year?

The following is a snapshot leading to the approval process of GSB ® during a city council meeting. Le Roy — At Monday’s city council meeting...Gee Asphalt Systems Inc. was approved to apply GSB-88® asphalt emulsion fog seal at a contracted rate not to exceed $50,000, and the council approved the motion while waiving competitive bidding.

Seeing is believing! Both lots were installed in 1978 but ONLY ONE lot was carefully maintained and received a steady diet of Asphalt Preservation treatments with GSB®! The other lot was completely neglected and left to the typical structural pavement deterioration cycle. Now 35+ years later the neglected lot is experiencing COMPLETE FAILURE and is overdue for expensive total reconstruction while the GSB® treated lot remains in Good Condition — binder strength a

Remember the old adage, April Showers Bring May Flowers? Well if you own asphalt pavement, you know the Spring Thaw will reveal cracks that opened up and froze repeatedly during harsh winter conditions—and damaging cracks brings out-of-control potholes to deal with sooner than you think! But, with a little forward thinking, you don’t have to nervously watch your budget and “wait and see what Spring brings.” Understanding the Cycle Leading up to Potholes Makes Regular Pavem

FALL is HERE. The days are getting shorter and if worsening pavement deterioration throughout your lot is giving you nightmares, there are now less daylight hours for necessary repairs. And, you hope your binder will stay protected throughout the harsh unpredictable winter months. But, night repairs often come with a much LARGER PRICE-TAG. And, if your business is open 24 hours, less parking might mean customers may drive on down the road and spend their money at your
