Open-Graded Friction Course pavement
Example of new Open-Graded Friction Course (OGFC) pavement layer at the start of the project. OGFC, commonly referred to as porous pavement, is a layer of porous asphalt spread over the surface of impervious hot mix or dense-graded asphalt (HMA) that is traditionally used as the wearing surface in Massachusetts.
