VRAM Still Protecting Sangamon County, IL, Roads Nearly Six Years Later

Project Summary   The longitudinal joints in pavements are often the weakest points of a road, but applying a Void Reducing Asphalt Membrane (VRAM) at the time of construction fills the pavement voids to reduce the joint’s vulnerability to the elements and reduce permeability. This ultimately leads to stronger, safer, and...

LaGrange County Preserves the Longitudinal Joint with Asphalt Material’s VRAM

By applying a Void Reducing Asphalt Membrane (VRAM) at the time of construction to longitudinal joints, local and state Department of Transportations (DOTs) can ensure their roads are less vulnerable to elements, such as water and air. VRAM fills pavement voids in the longitudinal joints and helps create stronger, safer,...

VRAM Continues to Help MDOT “Fix the Damn Roads” in Michigan

Project Summary  Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s consistent investments to “fix the damn roads” (#FTDR) reminds us of the importance of using innovative technology to build longer-lasting, safer roads. By applying a Void Reducing Asphalt Membrane (VRAM) at the time of construction to longitudinal joints, local and state departments of transportation...

18-Month Project Review Shows VRAM Significantly Reduces Permeability

After beginning in the Midwest in 2002, VRAM has now been used in 23 states and The District of Columbia. VRAM stands for Void-Reducing Asphalt Membrane. Pavement maintenance due to longitudinal joint cracking has long been a problem for not only road construction engineers and applicators but also drivers. VRAM...

Nearly Six Years After Initial Construction, VRAM Still Providing Protection to Illinois Roads 

The Purpose of VRAM The longitudinal joints in pavements are the weakest point because they are most vulnerable to elements including air and water. These elements enter the longitudinal joint’s voids and cause deterioration, cracking, and potholes. As deterioration begins at the centerline, deterioration of the rest of the road...
