5. Target Customer • General Contractors – medium to large sized companies • Paving Specialists doing production paving • Many are medium sized companies • Often as a sub for a general contractor • Rental houses • Most compactors are rented for the first few years

6. Goals for Asphalt Compactors • Goal of asphalt contractors = achieve the target mat densityas efficiently as possible • What does that mean: • Minimize number of rollers by running most efficient rolling pattern • Minimize fuel usage • Avoid over-compaction • Avoid under-compaction • Avoid re-work

7. Customer issues with asphalt compaction: Passcount Tracking • To reach desired compaction, the compactor operator needs to achieve a certain pass count target. • However: • With a requirement of up to 8 passes, the operator easily loses track and the job becomes guesswork • The contractor cannot monitor compaction performance and cannot verify accurate completion of the compaction job

8. Customer issues with asphalt compaction: Passcount Tracking • Tracking the pass count without CCS900 shows the huge inconsistency in pass count • Result: • Inconsistent density • Under compaction • Over compaction • Penalties, missed bonuses, premature road failure and legal issues • Example: Pass Count Source: Twente University, 2008

9. Customer issues with asphalt compaction: Asphalt Temperature • You can only compact asphalt within the 80-160 ºC (175-320F) surface temperature window • Below 80ºC*: material too hard to compact, possible to crush surface • Above: 160ºC*: material too soft and can be displaced • It’s an art for the operator to correctly judge the optimal time window for compaction Example limited time window (50mm thick, delivery temp, 135ºC) • *: Temperature values can differ dependent on mix type and equipment used

10. Adding Science to the Art of Paving • Better Info to the Operator = Better Surface • The CCS900 system provides: • Pass count maps to avoid over/undercompaction • Real-time temperature maps for the operator to find the optimal window for compaction • Documentation of compaction effort across the entire project • Verifiable as-built information for sign-off and payment

11. Pass Count Mapping • Takes the guesswork out of asphalt compaction • More consistent compaction effort to target pass count • Increased productivity to taking the most efficient rolling pattern

12. Temperature Mapping • New Trimble IS310 Infrared Sensor • One front, one rear facing • Leading sensor active • Replaceable lens

13. Temperature Mapping • New Trimble IS310 Infrared Sensor • Provide temperature maps for a user definable min and max value • User defined high/low temp warnings are displayed over the machine icon • Operator can watch pass counts and temp warnings on the same screen

14. In-field reporting • Proofing mode and summary • On-machine validation of final compaction runs • Increases the quality of the final compacted material • In-field reporting • Get real-time summary of work completed • Print in-field with thermal printer for sign-off and approval

15. Office Reporting: Trimble SiteVision® Office v7.41 and it’s Compaction Module • New SiteVision Office v7.41 release to support CCS900 v11.3 and v12.0 • SiteVision Office v7 features: • Data referenced to job site coordinates • Pass count, Compaction meter value • Detailed data views and analysis • Design and compaction data archival • Temperature mapping - release v7.42 with the Trimble IS310 launch

16. As Built Mapping • Cut / Fill Coverage Mapping • QA / QC design grade specifications have been met, post-compaction • Catch errors prior to the start of paving the next layer • Productivity reporting • Includes: • System usage • Compaction terrain logging • Machine productivity statistics • Logged to a *.TAG file • Analyzed in Trimble SiteVision® Office 7

17. Configuration: Base System • Pass Counts only • Economic solution that increases efficiency and layer quality • No designs or coordinate systems required CB450 MS972 (SBAS) CI310

18. Configuration: Popular Upgrade Options MT900 SNR 3rd Party Printer • IS310 * 2 • Location RTK + SNM940 • CB460 • 3rd Party Printer • MT900 As-Built Mapping + MS972 Location RTK CB460 SNM940 CI310 IS310 IS310

19. Configuration: All Options MS972 MS992 MT900 3rd Party Printer SNR SNM940 CB460 CB450 Add Machine Types AS450 or AS400 CI310 IS310 IS310 CM310

20. Summary customer benefits • Increased rolling productivity, lower O&O cost • By choosing more efficient rolling patterns and reducing rework • Quality Control • Through in-field reporting and office synchronization • Improved layer quality • By taking the guess work out • Operator can verify if pass count targets has been achieved within the appropriate temperature window

21. Unique benefits of Trimble CCS900 • Trimble Ready configuration • Upgradeable and Portable to any machine brand and type* • SITECH and Trimble expertise and support • Affordable • within customer’s reserve price for a more cost sensitive machine *: For other machine types an option key would need to be purchased

22. Availability and Distribution • Trimble CCS900 for asphalt compactor • Release March 22, 2011 • Trimble IS310 Infrared Sensor and SiteVision Office v7.42 • Release June 2011 • Distribution • All SITECH and Trimble H&H dealers
