1-40 PORT OF ENTRY

EPX50 Bridge Deck Overlay | Project Profile

PROJECT: 1-40 PORT OF ENTRY

LOCATION: GALLUP, NEW MEXICO

PRODUCT: EP100 SEAL & EPX-50 OVERLAY

PROJECT CONCERNS

This project was time critical on I-40. The installation needed to be completed in a single daytime shift. E-Chem provided a 2:1 spray pump to
apply the EP100 sealer in tandem with a 1:1 epoxy overlay pump for the EPX50. The sealer and overlay was installed in a single pass
allowing the contractor to complete the sealer application and two lifts of overlay in a 10 hour shift. The single shift requirement was
mandated due to hazards of having a lane closure overnight at the POE exit just past this installation.
