Potholes are mainly caused by water weakening the road base material and causing cracks, ruts, and potholes on the surface over time. The Mechanical Concrete® Pothole Terminator can combat this problem by completely excavating the pothole and sub-grade, lining it with fabric, filling it with stone and new pavement, eliminating the root cause of water penetration. This construction technique is known as the Mechanical Concrete® Pothole Terminator.

The lowly pothole is one of the major challenges which are
almost always caused by water, which softens the road base material; which in turn causes failures on the surface in the form of – first, cracking, then, ruts and finally, potholes. To combat this problem the technology Mechanical Concrete® Pothole Terminator can be used. The pothole is completely excavated at the base as well as the asphalt surface is removed. The sub-grade at the bottom of the hole is covered with woven separation fabric. Then, a tire- derived-cylinder is placed in the hole and filled with AASHTO #57 stone, and new surface pavement is placed. This construction technique is known as the Mechanical Concrete® Pothole Terminator because it eliminates the impact of root cause of the pothole, water.
