The Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association's driveway best-practices brief, published through the Asphalt Institute, says a base of 6 to 8 inches of crushed aggregate is usually adequate for a residential driveway, topped by a 2-inch asphalt bottom course and a 1.5-inch surface course.
The same brief says a well-designed asphalt driveway gives trouble-free service for up to 20 years, and that new asphalt is best left a few days before it is opened to traffic.
The National Asphalt Pavement Association says a driveway contract should state the pavement thickness, site preparation and drainage responsibilities, the payment schedule and the warranty, and it calls standing water the leading cause of driveway failure.
