About Sweden• Where is Sweden in the World?• Is Sweden larger than California,
by size?• How fast are you allowed to drive?
(as maximum speed limit)• What is the maximum allowed gross
weight of trucks?• Are they allowed the same speed limit?
Not Switzerland!
YES! (by 5%)120 km/h (75 mph)
60 metric tonnes (132.000 pounds)No, 80 km/h (50 mph)
A few famous Swedish companys:• Volvo,
IKEA, Ericsson

We’re committed to a safer transport system• Adjustment of road traffic speed – adjustment to
road traffic safety standards
• More than 1 000 traffic safety cameras are located on the most dangerous roads
• Work on influences: alcohol/drugs, seat belt use, keeping to the speed limit, safety on and near railway tracks and bicycle helmet use
• 4 200 km of multi-lane, bidirectional highways
• Suicide on roads and rail reduced through preventative measures

Swedish Road Maintenance Performance Standard 2011
• Describes performance by four parameters:– Rut depth, International Roughness
Index (IRI), Edge Deformation and macro texture
• The standard uses traffic class by amount (AADT) and allowed speed.
• Roads where performance compliance are not met, reports as deficiencies.
• The deficiencies can be calculated and are defined by road class and geography.

Guarantee / Warranty Practice (5 years)
+ Gives contractor an incentive to meet specification and to pay attention to workmanship
+ Reduces risk for road owner- No incentive for improvements
Note that the contractor has the responsibility to find cause of premature failure and to recommend an action plan.

What have we achieved with our AR project, so far1) We can produce Asphalt Rubber with, as
expected, good quality!2) We have shown that environmental issues
(leakage, emissions) can be managed. In a broader view there is no negative impact to the surrondings – benefits exists!
3) The workers health can be managed; especially with sharing information and a maximum manufacturing temperature (not to be exceeded).
4) We have a technical specification for AR - GAP graded pavements.
5) Asphalt Rubber is definitely a pavement concept for Swedish roads.

What is the Flow Mixing Technology*?• A technology to produce asphalt concrete mixes with
same or better quality without use of extra additives. • Through a controlled way of production, reduce valuable
sources of raw material, save energy, and give long lasting products.
* The Flow Mixing Technology is also called the KGO-III method, which is patented technology by Karl Gunnar Ohlson, Sweden
