how thick of asphalt does a parking lot need to be
All the more when you realize that, brand new, at 2 inches thick, asphalt can carry nearly every vehicular load imaginable, but when your parking lot is 10 years old, your asphalt is probably 1.75 inches thick (abrasion and compaction). At 15 years, itâs closer to 1.50 inches thick. Take a good look at your asphalt.
