Can CC be used for Trackway?

We do not recommend CC as a vehicle trackway in most circumstances. However CC can be used as hard armour capping of ground to prevent dust generation, erosion and wash-out of fines. The load bearing capacity of the trackway should be based on the surface modulus (CBR) of the ground which should be sufficient to support the requisite traffic loading.
The CC should therefore only be used to provide surface erosion control rather than to increase the surface modulus of any given substrate. For this type of application we would typically recommend 2 layers of CC13TM with an offset overlap and the 2 layers screwed together.
