Throw-and-Roll

Made more permanent with Vibco GR-1600

The throw-and-roll method consists of the following steps:

1. Place mixture into the pothole which may or may not be filled with water and debris. Use any type of hand tool such as a shovel or pitchfork to fill the hole. Fill the hole so that there is a crown in the center.
2.Compact the material by rolling over it 6 to 8 times with truck tires. Some crews have found it useful to cover the patch with sand before rolling a truck over the patch to prevent material from sticking to tires.
3. Check the level of the patch to make sure the center of the patch is ¼” to ½” above the pavement surface.
4. If the patch is low add more cold mix and repeat the patching steps again.

The preferred method, similar to the standard “throw-and-go”, “dump-and-run” or the “pitch-and-pat” methods, utilizes compaction with a vibratory roller, which provides a tighter patch for traffic to drive over it without creating depressions and it provides better water runoff. The extra 1 to 2 minutes to compact the patches will produce a significantly better patch.
