Estimating Table

This document provides application rates and unit weights for various road construction materials used for estimating purposes. It lists materials like aggregate base, hot asphalt mix, asphalt binder, antistrip, prime coat, blotter, tack coat, fog seal and concrete. Application rates are provided in metric and imperial units for each material. Notes specify assumptions for estimating prime coat, tack coat and fog seal application rates and unit weights for asphalt emulsion products.

* If the project uses the FP-03 calculate quantity based on area and use this
value in your estimate because the FP-03 pays for the water to dilute.
