GREEN SOLUTIONS

Musselman & Hall Contractors is dedicated to environmentally responsible building practices and is proud to offer numerous services that can help you meet your green building requirements.

Some solutions we offer that you may want to consider include:

Grasscrete: A cast-in-place, monolithic, porous concrete pavement that is continuously reinforced to provide superior structural integrity. After the concrete is sufficiently hardened, the voids are filled with topsoil and grass or decorative rock, thus providing a free draining "pavement" with the structural capacity to handle most heavy vehicle loads.

Great for emergency access lanes, delivery access routes, overflow parking areas, and for intermittent drainage channels to help prevent erosion.

Pervious Pavement: Pervious Concrete Pavements are cement-based products whose porous structure permits a free passage of water through the pavement into the soil without compromising the pavement’s durability or integrity.

Use of Recycled Materials: There are numerous applications for integrating recycled materials into the products/services we offer. Some of the options include: use of crushed concrete as base rock under new concrete slabs, recycled asphalt concrete into asphalt paving projects, fly ash in concrete mix designs, slag in concrete mix design, and crushed recycled glass as a decorative exposed aggregate in concrete pavements.

Concrete Parking lots: Switching asphalt surfaces to concrete where possible can reduce the “heat island” affect by reflecting instead of absorbing the Sun’s rays.

Proper Asphalt Maintenance: By properly maintaining your asphalt surfaces through the application of Microsurfacing or Slurry Seal you are preventing the need for full depth removal/replacement.
