Question

QUESTION 10 The basic process for asphalt construction is as follows: Asphalt mixes are brought to the paving site and trucks and deposited directly into the paver or in Windrows in front of the paver. The paver then spreads the mix at a set width and thickness. The paver's screed will partially compact the mix as it moves forward. After the paver has spread the mat, the rollers compacted to its final required density. True False

Hence, the given statment regading basic process of asphalt construction is true.
