comfort, safety and economy to road users. There are several types of coatings to be used depending

required to apply this asphalt mix with hot-machined concrete, as this is the most commonly used for
pavement construction. Checking the advantages and disadvantages of its use to evaluate its
application in the municipality in question. As the cold premix showed to meet most of the
requirements for good paving, having a better cost-benefit ratio, it was found that it can be used on
