METHODOLOGY TO BE ADAPTED
BY AUTOMARK INDUSTRIES (INDIA) LIMITED
FOR THERMOPLASTI C ROAD MARKING ON BITUMENOUS SURFACE

1. Plotting of points on the carriageway for centreline and edgeline markings as directed by the
Engineer / Consultants.
2. Scrubbing of road surface with wire brush to dislocate the dust from road surface.
3. Blowing of the dislocated dust from the surface with air-compressor.
4. Pre-marking of centreline / edgeline / Kerb line using string and chalk method.
5. Simultaneously while the above activities are being carried out, thermoplastic material is
heated in a imported oil jacketed pre-heater fitted with hydraulic stirring arrangement. The
thermoplastic material in the pre-heater is heated up to the required temperature. The
temperature is checked using a electronic temperature meter.
6. The machine to be used on the project:
a. Imported Hand-Push Machine: The centre lines, pedestrian crossing etc. would be marked by
imported hand-push machine in view of the traffic flow on 10 Mtr. road.
7. The molten thermoplastic material is transferred from the pre-heater to our thermoplastic road-
marking machine.
8. Temperature of the material is maintained in the applicator machine.
9. The material is screeded out from the machine through the heated shoe at a thickness of 2.5mm.
Drop on glass beads at a quantity of 300 gms/m² [including wastages due to wind pressure] are
dispensed on the surface of this screeded thermoplastic marking. The dispensing of glass beads
is irrespective of speed due to chain drive mechanism.
10. The carriageway with marking completed is opened for traffic after required drying time of
application and proper setting of thermoplastic material.
11. The pedestrian marking would be done by hand-push manual machine. When the application cannot
be done using the machines, approved manual methods shall be used e.g. for Arrows etc .
12. Following quality checks are carried out and recorded during marking each day:
a. Temperature of material during application by digital temperature meter – Every batch of
material applied.
b. Thickness of material applied – Once in a day
c. Quantity of drop on glass beads being applied – Once in a day
d. Embedment of drop on glass beads by using magnifying glass – 2 times.
e. Nighttime reflectivity with Imported Reflectometer – Daily.
