Abstract: An asphalt paving system comprising a plurality of dispensing shafts and a plurality of rolls of pavement reinforcing membrane. The plurality of dispensing shafts are adapted to be mounted on an asphalt paving machine, where at least a portion of at least one dispensing shaft extends from at least one side of the paving machine, and at least a portion of at least one dispensing shaft extends to a front of the paving machine. Each roll of pavement reinforcing membrane is supported by one of the plurality of dispensing shafts. As the asphalt paving machine moves, the plurality of dispensing shafts dispense the pavement reinforcing membrane continuously beneath the asphalt paving machine and the hot asphalt material is dispensed from the hopper on top of the pavement reinforcing membrane beneath the asphalt paving machine.

Abstract: An asphalt paving system comprising an asphalt paving machine, a plurality of dispensing shafts, and a plurality of rolls of pavement reinforcing membrane. The paving machine comprises a hopper is configured to store hot asphalt material. The plurality of dispensing shafts are mounted on the asphalt paving machine, where at least a portion of at least one dispensing shaft extends from at least one side of the paving machine, and at least a portion of at least one dispensing shaft extends to a front of the paving machine. Each roll of pavement reinforcing membrane is supported by one of the plurality of dispensing shafts. As the asphalt paving machine moves, the plurality of dispensing shafts dispense the pavement reinforcing membrane continuously beneath the asphalt paving machine and the hot asphalt material is dispensed from the hopper on top of the pavement reinforcing membrane beneath the asphalt paving machine.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an asphalt paving system comprising an asphalt paving machine, a plurality of dispensing shafts, and a roll of pavement reinforcing membrane. The asphalt paving machine comprising a hopper, a screed, and support tracks. The plurality of dispensing shafts are mounted on the asphalt paving machine. Each roll of pavement reinforcing membrane is supported by at least one of the plurality of dispensing shafts. The plurality of mounted membrane dispensing shafts dispense the pavement reinforcing membrane continuously beneath the asphalt paving machine as the asphalt paving moves forward.
