Parking lots are paved areas intended for vehicle parking and can vary widely in size, function and design.  This page gives some general guidance when designing at-grade parking lot pavements.

Residential driveways are small pavement sections intended for automobile use and parking with only an occasional medium truck.

Bicycle, walking and golf cart paths are specifically intended for bicycles, golf carts, pedestrians and other non-vehicular traffic.  They are generally thinner than vehicular pavement and usually have a very smooth surface.

Recreational facilities include playgrounds, tennis courts, basketball courts and just about any other surface intended primarily for pedestrian use.

“Heavy industrial facilities” encompasses any facility for use with heavily loaded vehicles such as industrial drives, truck parking, bus terminals, warehouse loading areas, log storage areas and container lots.  HMA is a durable, high-strength pavement material that is entirely appropriate for industrial facilities.

Airfield pavements are intended primarily for airplane traffic in stationary, taxiing and takeoff/landing modes.  HMA is a durable, high-strength pavement materials that is entirely appropriate for airfields.  In fact, over 90 percent of the paved airfields in the U.S. are paved with HMA.
