Below are before and after photos of a bunded storage area set up to contain liquids if leaking occurs.
The first three photos show a section of the area marked out with white paint and tacked with a liquid bitumen emulsion to ensure adherence of asphalt.
The last three photos show the finished bund/hump.
A 10mm granite black asphalt/hotmix was added to the area, raked to form a 100mm high bund/hump, rolled with a vibrating pedestrian roller and gassed and tidied up with a hand tamper.
Sand was sprinkled over the finished surface to prevent scuffing once the area is driven over with forklifts.
The new hump/bund was connected to existing humps (installed years prior) to cut off a section of the large bunded area into smaller areas.
