Tampa International Airport

Tampa, Florida

The Tampa International Airport has developed a permanent site for portable paving plants on the airport property. Ajax Paving Inc. is the first plant to use this site for a 33,000 yard taxi way extension. The project called for flexural strengths of 725 psi with an air content of 4.5%. To assist in overcoming aggregate challenges Ajax elected to use OptiFlo® 500 at a 5 oz./ cwt. This dosage also assisted in set control.

Premiere provided a self contained EPA friendly admixture trailer for use onsite. The trailer is comprised of six 1000 gallon tanks with quick connect hose fittings and amphoral computer connections. A camera and monitor are also provided to ensure accurate dosing.
