With all of these benefits, are there any limitations to using Asbuton over bitumen?
Barring the issue of cost, there are only advantages. There is absolutely no drawback to using Asbuton. Indeed it is more expensive, but when one considers that, at a cost for Asbuton of 14% more than refinery bitumen, a service life expectation of up to three times as much, a savings to be accrued as a result of reduced maintenance of up to twice as much, and a resulting structural strength and load bearing capacity of up to 40 % more, then, in the context of the total delivered value, there are absolutely no drawbacks to Asbuton use over bitumen.
