Asphalt Barn Floor Questions

You folks that have an asphalt floor in your barn to stack hay on - I have a couple questions.

1. How is the floor constructed, ie gravel base and asphalt on top, etc.

2. How thick the layers, asphalt and any gravel beneath?

3. When you park your heavy equipment or loaded wagons on the asphalt, are they leaving any dents (for lack of a better word).

4. I’m considering asphalt as I gather one can stack square bales on it with little fear as compared to concrete, etc. Has your asphalt/stacking hay directly on it delivering the mail in terms of reduced or no mold on the bottom layer of the stack?

Any other helpful advice/info is much appreciated.

Thanks!
Bill
