A prime coat is an application of low-viscosity cutback asphalt to an absorbent surface,such as an untreated granular base on which an asphalt layer will be placed.Its purposeis to bind the granular base to the asphalt layer.The difference between a tack coat and aprime coat is that a tack coat does not require the penetration of asphalt into theunderlying layer,whereas a prime coat penetrates into the underlying layer,plugs thevoids,and forms a watertight surface. Base Course and Subbase Course The base course iS the fayer of materiaI beneath the surface or binder course.1tcan be composed of crashed stone,crashed slag,or other untreated or stabilizedmaterials.The subbase course iS the layer of materiaI beneath the base course.Thereason that two different granular materials are used is for economy.Instead of usingthe more expensive base course materiaI for the entire layer,Iocal and cheap materialscan be used as a subbase course on top of the subgrade.If the base course is opengraded,the subbase course with more fines can serve as a filter between the subgradeand the base course.
