Material Specification
SHW Clause 803 Type 1 Subbase, 100% IBAA and an IBAA Limestone Blend.

Client
Hull City Council.

Delivery Partner
PBS Construction LTD.

Construction

150mm of Incinerator Bottom Ash Aggregate (IBAA) Type 1 subbase topped off with a 20mm binder and 6mm surface course. Some sections of the cycleway are to be topped off with a green coloured asphalt.

Benefit

IBAA is an extremely cost-effective material when compared to Primary Aggregates and BPUK is working towards a verified Carbon Footprint. There are also advantages logistically when using IBAA due to the low density of the material allowing for fewer vehicle movements as this gives volumetric advantages over primary materials.
