Inkqubo yokuhamba kwesityalo sokuxuba i-asphalt kufuneka ijwayele wonke umntu. Umhleli wabaxube abakhulu ucinga ukuba ukuveliswa kwezixhobo zokuxuba i-asphalt kunqunywe ngumthamo we-cylinder wokuxuba kunye nomjikelezo wokusebenza. Umjikelo wokusebenza ubhekisa kumahluko wexesha ukusuka kwitanki yokuxuba ekhuphayo ukuya kwixesha elizayo lokukhupha. Isixhobo sokuxuba i-asphalt sidityaniswe ngokudibeneyo kunye neengqungquthela zokomisa okwethutyana kunye nokuxuba iidramu zokunciphisa iindleko zotyalo-mali kubathengi.

Isixhobo sokuxuba i-asphalt sisitayile sefektri esipheleleyo seseti yezixhobo ezixuba ii-aggregates ezomileyo nezifudumalayo zobukhulu bamasuntswana ahlukeneyo, iifayili kunye ne-asphalt ngokomlinganiselo owenziweyo wokuxuba kwiqondo lokushisa elichaziweyo kumxube ofanayo. Isetyenziswa ngokubanzi kuhola wendlela, kwiindlela zasezidolophini, kwizikhululo zeenqwelo moya, Isetyenziswe ekwakhiweni kweedokhi, iindawo zokupaka iimoto kunye nezinye iiprojekthi, izixhobo zokuxuba i-asphalt zizixhobo ezibalulekileyo nezingundoqo kwi-asphalt pavement. Ukusebenza kwayo kuchaphazela ngokuthe ngqo umgangatho we-asphalt pavement.

Ngokuqhelekileyo, izixhobo zokuxuba i-asphalt zekhonkrithi zineentlobo ezimbini: uhlobo oluphakathi kunye nohlobo oludibeneyo. Uhlobo oludibeneyo lunomsebenzi olula wenkqubo kunye nezixhobo ezilula. Ngokuphathelele izixhobo zokuxuba i-asphalt eziphazamisayo, ngenxa yokuhlolwa kwesibini kwee-aggregates, amacandelo ahlukeneyo alinganiswa kwiibhetshi, kwaye i-aggregates inyanzelekile ukuba ixutywe kwaye ixutywe, inokuqinisekisa ukuhlelwa kwezinto, kunye nokulinganisa umgubo kunye ne-asphalt can kwakhona ukufikelela kwinqanaba eliphezulu kakhulu. Ngokuchaneka okuphezulu, umxube we-asphalt odibeneyo unomgangatho omhle kwaye unokuhlangabezana neemfuno zezakhiwo ezahlukeneyo.

Isixhobo sisekelwe kwingqikelelo yokusingqongileyo yemigangatho yaseYurophu, ukubonelela abathengi ngesiqinisekiso sokuba isixhobo sihlangabezana ngokupheleleyo nemigangatho yokukhutshwa kothuli, ukukhutshwa kwezinto ezinobumuncu kunye nolawulo lwengxolo.
