No concrete shall be depoit.ed under water without permission of the Engineer and then only in trict accordance with his direction , nor shall the Contractor, without permission, allow still water to rise on any concrete unti the concrete shall have attained its initial set. Water in motion ;h; not be permitted to flow over the surface of any concrete 'n such manner at such velocities as will injure the surface finish of the concrci:e. 4.12 Placing Reinforcement. Reinforcing steel , before bei? cJ Flaccd, mall be cleaned of all mill and rust scale, oil and of coatings of any character that will destroy or reduce the bond. Reinforcement appreciably reduced in section due to corrision will be rejected. Whe:e tnere is a delay in depositing concrete, the reinforcement shall be reinsnc:cted and, when necessary , cleaned. 4-3 i The proper proportions of aggregate, cement and water for each batch of concrete shall be placed in the mixer and shall therein be mixed for not less than fifty (50) or more than one hundred (100) revolutions of the drum or blades at the rotation designated by the manufacturer of the equipment as agitating speed. The drum shall be revolved continuously until the concrete is completely emptied of the previously mixed batch. When concrete is being placed, all wash water shall be emptied from the mixer before any portion of the succeeding batch is placed therein. The contractor shall be responsible for making advance arrangements for preventing delays in delivery and placing of transit-mixed concrete. Each mixer and agitator shall have attached thereto, in a prominent place, a metal plate or plates , installed by the manufacturer on which is plainly marked for the various uses for which the equipment is designed, the capacity of the drum in terms of volume of mixed concrete, and the speed of the water tanks shall be calibrated or an adjustable measuring device shall be installed to determine the amount of water added to each batch of concrete. Ready-mix delivery tickets shall indicate for each load: A. Date and time dispatched B. Number of yards of concrete in load C. Type of concrete and maximum aggregate size D. Cement content in sacks per cubic yard of concrete E. Amount of water added at job site or in transit 4.14 Placing Concrete. The contractor shall give the Engineer notice at least twenty four (24) hours in advance, and on a workine day, of placing concrete to permit the Engineer to properly irsplct the forzcs and the wiring and placement of reinforcing steel . No concrete shall be placed until the forms and reinforcement are approved by the Engineer. Failure to notify may result in rejection of all work dole subsequent to such failure to notify. No concrete shall be placed, except in the presence of competent supervision. Before depositing concrete, debris shall be removed from the space to be occupied by the concrete and forms shall be thoroughly wetted with fresh water. Any accumulation of water in forms shall be removed before pouring concrete. 4-5 Concrete shall be handled from the mixer or mixing board to the place of final deposit as rapidly as practicable by methods which will prevent the segregation or loss of ingredients. Maximum fall of concrete shall not exceed four (4) feet. It shall be deposited in the forms as nearly as practicable in its final position to avoid rehandling. It shall be deposited in approximately uniform layers . The piling up of the concrete in the forms in such a manner as to permit the escape of the. mortar from the coarse aggregate will not be permitted. Concrete shall be placed in a manner that will avoid accumulations of hardened concrete on the forms or metal reinforcement. Under no circumstances shall concrete that has taken an initial set be deposited in the work. No concrete shall be allowed to come in contact with the ground before it is placed in the forms. Concrete shall not be retempered. The concrete shall be thoroughly worked around the reinforcement, around embedded fixtures., and into the corners of the forms. P.s concrete is placed in the forms or excavations, it shall be settled and co4lacted throughout the entire length into a dense homogenous mass. The concrete shall be internally vibrated, filling all corr;ees and angles , embedding the reinforcement, eliminating rock p;:ckets and br i,iying only a slight excess of mortar to the exposed surface of the concrete during placement without allowing the vibrator head to (untact the reinforcing steel or the forms . A sufficient number of vibrators shall be used to secure the compaction of each batch before the next hatch is placed without delaying delivery. There will be at least ore (1 ) stand-by vibrator in reserve and ready for service at all ties . , full- time operator for the vibrator will be available and wthect ether duties during the placing operations . Vibrators shall not bee ed to move concrete large distances horizontally , Concrete shall be deposited continuously and as rapidly as practicable and until the unit of operation is completed. When depositing fresh concrete against concrete previously poured, t �, entire surface of the hardenedi concrete shall be carefully cleaned of foreign matter and laitance. The surface shall be saturated with water and forms retightened before depositing fresh concrete. Just before depositing the fresh concrete, the surface of the old cc.ncret> shall be freely and completely covered with a neat cement grout. 4.15 Concrete Surface. Concrete shall be nixed, placed and worked to secure a uniform distribution of the aggregates and insure uniform texture of surface. 4. 16 Materials Installed In Concrete. The Contractor shall install into concrete work all fixtures required for joining work of other materials to the concrete, as shown on the plans. 4-6 4.17 Joints. Expansion joints shall be constructed where and as indicated on the plans . Unless otherwise shown or specified, the expansion joint material shall be set back from the exposed face of theconcrete one-half (1/2) inch and the edges of the adjacent concrete shall be beveled at a forty-five (45°) degree angle from the face. Construction joints shall only be made in such places and in such manner that they will have the least possible effect upon the strength of the structure and at locations approved by the Engineer. All joints shall be roughened and thoroughly cleaned before joining new concrete to old. Where new concrete is added to old at a joint, the mix will be "enriched" by the addition of one (1 ) full sack of cement to the first batch to be placed against the old concrete to provide 'a proper bond between the concrete sections. Bulkheads shall be used in constructing all joints other than horizontal . Shear keys shall be provided in joints as shown on the plans or as approved by the Engineer. Shear keys when formed into the concrete may be made by insertion of; and subsequent removal ' f, a water saturated timber of the specified dimensions . Water barrier may be copper or approved PVC plastic mater,a1 . 4.18 Concrete Footings and Floors . Concrete slabs shall be finished ;;rue to zne and grade as shown on the plans . Screeds shall be set as required to produce the required rade before concrete is placed. After the concrete has been screeded off and has set up suficientl; to support a man's weight, it will be given an immediate wood float finish. This is a final finish for slabs to be covered with ins+ulatiop and/or grouted on coverings. For surfaces ro be covered directly by roofing felts , asphalt tile, rubber tile, or other covering set in mastic cement shall b! hand- troweled once with a steel trowel following the operation of the above paragraph. Work that is excavated to a greater extent than sh. on th2 draYincrs within the bearing areas of the walls and footings shall be backfilled to the required subgrade elevation, as sr;own on the pl ins , with 2,000 pounds per square inch concrete, at the Cont.•aci,ar'.: expense. 4-7 4.19 Finish. All concrete surfaces shall be finished in accordance with the schedule called for on the plans. Where there is no finish specified on the plans and the surface is to be covered with backfill material or otherwise concealed from view, the finish shall be assumed to be Class 1 , unless otherwise directed by the Eingineer. Where there is no finish specified and the surface will be exposed to view, the finish shall be assumed to be Class 2, unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. 4. 19.01 Class 1 Finish. Class 1 finish shall be a smooth finish, free of honeycomb, air pockets , rock pockets , excessive indentations , or protrusions. Immediately after the forms have been removed, the Contractor shall remove all form bolts and tie wires to a depth of at least one-half inch (1/2") below the surface of the concrete. All holes and depressions caused by the removal or setting back of form bolts or tie wires shall be cleaned and filled with Portland Cement mortar composed Of one (1 ) part by volume cement and two (2) parts sand. All rock pockets , honeycomb, and air pockets shall be chipped out, cleaned, and filled with mortar all in compliance with instructions of the Engineer. If in the judgment of the Engineer, rock pockets are of such an extent or character as to materially affect the strength of the structure or to endanger- the life of the steel reinforcement, he may delare tee concrete defective and order the complete removal and replacement. of that portion of the structure so affected. All mortar patches shall be carefully made using a very dry mortar tamped firmly in the void. The patches shall be kept wet fet a period of three (3) days after which it will be inspected tor shrinkage cracks. Excessive cracking will require complete removal and replacement of the patch. 4.19.02 Class 2 Finish. When Class 2 finish is specified an the plans :or when no finish is specified and the surface is to be exposed in the finished work, the surface will first be given Class 1 surface finish. After the Class 1 finish is completed, the surface will Pe rubbed with a No. 16 carberundum brick or a mechanical finisher sufficiently to remove all major protrusions form ridges , and other unsightly bulges or burrs , such that when finished, the surface shall be reasonably smooch and neat in appearance. Immediately upon completion of the rubbing or finishing with the mechanical finisher and while the concrete is still less than seven (7) days old. the entire surface will bc, painted with a mortar• mix of one (1 ) part Portland Cement a d oee part fine sand. The sand shall pass a No. 16 screen. The ;semen mortar shall be vigorously scrubbed into the surface whole fresh with a scrub brush or wood float. When the cement mortar hs set -;efficiently so that the sand particles will not drag out of pinholes : bat cefore final set has taken place , the entire surface shall be thorughly rubbed with dry burlap or a carpet float until a smooth sur' ce free of mortar and of even texture is obtained. 4-8 This surface when finished shall be neat, relatively smooth, and capable of being left without paint, and still present a pleasing appearance. 4. 19.03 Class 3 Finish. When Class 3 finish is specified on the plans or these specifications, the entire surface will first be given a Class 1 finish immediately after removal of the forms. Forms or vertical faces that are to receive Class 3 finish should be removed early but only with the approval of the Engineer. Immediately after the completion of Class 1 finish, the entire surface shall be thoroughly wetted and rubbed with a No. 16 carborundum stone until the surface is smooth and coated with a paste. The rubbing shall be continued sufficiently to remove all form marks and projections , and fill all air pockets and voids. When tie surface is smooth, dense, and free from pit marks or other irregularities , the paste that has been worked up by the stone shall be spread smoothly and allowed to reset. If when the paste has set there are, in the judgment of the Engineer, discoloration, visible form marks , or other irregularities affecting the desired appearance, the Engineer may specify the following additional treatment: The entire surface shall be coated with a layer of cement mortar composed of one (1 ) part normal Portland Ceri!e rt , one' ( 1 ) rart White Portland Cement, and two (2) parts fine sand of sucl• size that it will pass a No. 16 screen. The cement mortar shat ' ba vigorously scrubbed into the surface with a scrub brjsh or wood float. When the mortar has set sufficiently so tha . sand par- ices not drag out of pinholes in the surface , but before final set has taken• place, the entire surface shall be tho roughiy rt:bbed with dry burlap or a carpet float until a smeth suv" ce, free of mortar, and of even texture, color, and appearance obtainee. 4.20 Curing. Fresh concrete shall be adequately protec`eel fr,mi weather damage and mechanical injury during the curing periods. Curing processes described herein may be used at the option of +c Ccr*."actor. Whatever the curing process chosen, it shall be started . s soor! as it can be done without injury to the concrete surface The following erring procedures may be used, subject to the approval of the Engineer: A. Poncii ng ( tor slabs or footings) . B. Spraying. C. Wet Burlap, earth , or cotton mats . D. Waterproof paper or polyethylene plastic cover. E. Membrane curing compound. Membrane curing compound will not be used when concrete surface is to be painted. The type of membrane curing compound chosen shall not discolor the concrete surface as determined by the Engineer. 4-9 Where menbrane curing compound is not used, the curing .jrocess shall be carefully adhered to as follows : Surfaces being wetted by ponding, spraying, or wetted material shall be kept completely wetted with an excess of free water on the surface at all times for the first seventy-two (72) hours . After this period but for the remaining four (4) days , a wetting schedule will be followed whereby the concrete is wetted on a schedule approved by the Engineer. Surfaces being protected by waterproof paper or polyethylene plastic cover shall receive special attention during the first seventy-two (72) hours to insure that there is actually free moisture on the surface of the concrete under the waterproof surface. The Engineer may require the removal of the cover and a wetting of the surface when, in his judgment, there is irsuff. - lent moisture for curing. After the first seventy-two ( 72) hours the cover shall be kept tightly in place for tee rernainde • of the curing period. 4.21 old Weather Protection. Concrete shall not be placed when the ,.rrrhi ere temperature is less than forty (40) degrees Fahrenheit on a rise ; scale , nor less than forty-five (45) degrees Fahrenheit oe , f - inch scale. When t.. i r temperatures below forty (40) degrees Fare : ( are anticipate , new concrete work shall be covered and he vi a temperature of not less than fifty (50) degrees Fahrenh ' . concrete materials , steel , forms , fillers and ground 'rr cee act •itn concrete shall be free of frost. The concrete shall be h. .ieei to seventy (70) degrees - eighty (80; degrees Fahrenheit at time ;f deposit. Heating of the concrete work shall be maintained eor the duration of the cold weather , or seventy-two (72) hours , wh .e ever is less . The housing shall be raintained in place for twent -Tour (24 hours alter d continuing the heat. 4-lit ARTICLE FIVE EARTHWORK Paragraph Description Palf_ 5.01 General `'-1 5.02 Excavation 5-1 5.03 Drainage 5-3 5.04 Backfill 5.05 Topsoil 5-7 5.06 Watering 5-7 5.07 Disposal of Excess Material 5-7 5.08 Grading and Cleanup 5-7 5.09 Seeding 5- 5. 10 Density Testing 5-8 5. 11 Trench Maintenance 5-8 5.12 Trench Dewateri ng 5-8 5. 13 Quicksand 5-•9 5.14 Payment for Trench Excavating and Backfill 5•-9 ARTICLE 5 EARTHWORK 5.01 General . The work covered in this specification consists of excavating, removing, filling, backfilling and compacting embankment for and adjacent to the site, in accordance with these specifications and in conformance with the dimensions and typical sections shown on the plans and with the lines and grades established by the Engineer. A soils engineer shall be the Owner's representative for all excavation, compacted fill , and/or compacted backfill on the project. The soils engineer shall approve all earth material prior to ite ise , the mefiod:. of placing, and the degree of compaction obtained. certificate of approval from the soils engineer will be required prior to the Owner's final acceptance of the filling operations. 5.02 .Excavation. 5.02.01 General . All excavation shall be by open cut methods except: where the presence of structures make open cuts undesirable. In such instances, tunneling or jacking methods may be used providing written permission from the Engineer is obtained prior to the use of such methods at each location. In no case will tunneling be permitted `. or distances greater than six (6) feet. When jacking is permitted, only ierson ex- perienced in that work using suitable equipment shall perform the . ackln&., operation. In no case shall excavating tools or eq_+i!)r!.ent be ellowe'i to precede the sleeve being jacked. The Contractor shall provide all necessary bracing to pvetient cave-ins which might endanger life or property. The bracing saall be of sufficient strength and spacing to insure complete safety and shil . ':e left 1, place until 'Dackfi {l inq starts. All excavated material shall hf piled ir a manner that will not endanger the work and that will Ivoic rrnneces•.arily obstructing roadways. Grading shall be performed is re'quirevl to prevert surface water from entering the excavations. Where bracing is omitted and is, ir the opinion of the Enaineee, required for protection of persons or property, the Contractor may be ordered zr install bracing sufficient for the conditions. Such orders, or lack of it, will in no way relieve the Contractor of his respcnihiliey to ade- quately protect his excavation against caving or damage a el times. Temporary support, adequate protection and maintenance nf all unde'^orourd and surface structures, drains, sewers and other oL;tr'ictions encountered in the progress of the work shall be furnished by the lion .rac cor IL his expense. Any structures which are distrubed shall he res..o'ed by the Contractor at his expense. The Contractor shall proceed ,vith caution ir the excavation so that the exact location of underground tructure3, both known and unknown may be determined, and the Owrre► seail not be held liable for the repair, or replacement, when such structures are :�r aken or otherwise damaged. 5-1 • All excavation shall conform to the "Rules and Regulation: Governing. Excavation Work" as set forth by the Industrial Commission of Colorado. 5.02.02 Trenching. Trenches shall be excavated to the width necessary to permit the pipe to be laid and jointed oroperly and the backfill placed as specified; in no case shall the trench width at and below the top of the pipe be such that the clear space between the pipe barrel and the trench wall exceeds eight (8) inches on each side of the pipe. The trench shall be excavated to the proper depth and the trench bottom shall be graded to provide uniform hearing and support for the pipe for its entire length. A continuous trough shall be excavated to receive the bottom quadrant of the pipe barrel and bell holes shall be provided at each joint to permit the jointing to be performed proper'y and so that the pipe will be uniformly supported. Whenever soil is encountered in the bottom of the trench chat is incapable of supporting the pipe, as determined by the Engineer, such soil shall be removed to the depth directed and the trench had illed and compacted to the proper grade with approved materials. ill eir rock is encountered in the bottom of the trench, the trench shall to over- excavated six (6) inches and backfilled and compacted to the proper grade with approved materials. Not more than four hundred (^0i:) feet of trench may he left open at any time without approval in eri ti ng by the Engineer. 5.02.03 Pavement Cuts. Where excavation is rr.cuired under paved ar •as, the pavement shall be cut in a manner to effect a smooth, straight cut edge. The width of the pavement removed for trench excavation shall not exceed ten (10) feet. Trenches shall be excavated and ma'ntained so that the horizontal distance from the top edge of the tr•fnc± ,s not less than six (6) inches from the edge of the cut pavemert. 5.02.04 Structural Excavation. Excavation for structures shall consi ;t of the excavation and removal of all material of whatever nature encountered, necessary for the construction of structures shown on the plans. !t seall include the construction complete in puce of all tempor&ry c 'ibs, coffer- dams, cassions, etc. , which may be necessary for the proper ececution of the work. It shall also include, where applicable, all c;ekate rinrj processes that are necessary including , but. not limited in, Lie fJrnisning of well points and sump pumps. The elevation of the footings as shown on the plane shal' be consider-d approximate only, and the Engineer may order such changes n .limensiors or elevations or footings as may be necessary to secure ..at:isfactor•y foundations. 5-2 Foundations shall be excavated according to the outline of the footings as shown on the plans or as established by the Engineer. The final six (6) inches of excavations for footings shall be hand labor methods. Excavation in rock or other hard foundation material shall be cut to a firm surface, either level or stepped, cleaned of all loose material , and all seams and holes filled with mortar or grout as directed by the Engineer prior to placing structural concrete. Excavation in material other than rock shall be carefully completed so that the foundations shall rest on undisturbed soil . When excavation is completed to the specified elevations, the found- ation shall he inspected and approved by the Engineer prior to the continuance of the work. If, in the judgement of the Engineer, the foundation is soft or otherwise unstable, the natural foundation material will be removed to the depth specified by the Engineer and carefully backfilled up to the required elevation with suitable granular material . For this extra excavation, the Contractor ;hall be paid on a negotiated basis, force account basis, or at the unit price shown in the proposal form for structural excavation. When foundations are in rock and the Contractor chooses to place the concrete out to the rock without forms, the rock shall he excavated with vertical sides and a flat bottom, such that the remaining rock actually creates a form for the concrete. Excavation which would result in a rounded footing or foundation will not be accepted. Generally all structural excavation shall be performed :.o leave vertical banks. Where the material will not stand or where a sloping bank is excavated foe the Contractor's convenience, The bank shall be stepped so that backfill will not act as a wedge against the structure. Excavation snail extend a sufficient distance from the walls and footing to provide for forming except where the Engineer has authorized the placing of concrete against the excavated surfaces. 5.03 Drainage. The Contractor shall cor.trol the grading in vicinity of structures a.rd trenches so that the ground surface drains away from the excavated areas. 5.04 Backfill . 5.04.01 Material . Backfill materials shall consist of the excavated material free of large clods or stores over three (3) inches in diameter and select imported material where the excavated material is unsuitable in the opinion of the Engineer. Select imported material is defined as a well graded mixture of sound mineral aggregate particle cor•tai ni n it 5-3 sufficient proper quality binding material to secure a firm, stable foundation when placed and compacted. The material shall meet the following gradation requirements: Passing 2 inch 100% Passing No. 10, not more than 80% Passing No. 200 5% - 15% When used below pavements or similar structures, this material shall not be used above subgrade level . Materials used above the subgrade level shall conform to the requirements for subbase and base coarse materials. All materials used in either compacted fill or compacted backfill shall be subject to the approval of the soils engineer. Any bracing installed to prevent cave-ins shall be withdrawn -n a • manner that will maintain the required support during toe backfilliny operations. Driven sheet piling shall be cut off at or above the top of the pipe and the portion below the cut off line shall be left in the ground. 5.04.02 Placing_Fill_. No brush, sod, frozen material , or other perishable or unsuitable material , or stones of three (3) inches or greater in maximum dimension shall be placed in the fill . The distribution of the material on the fill shall be such as to avoid the formation of lenses, or layers of material differir.g substantially in characteristics from the s:urround- ng material . The materials shall be delivered to the backfill surface at a uniform rate, and in such quantity as to permit a satisfactory procedure. UnnecPssar./ con- centration of travel tending to cause ruts and uneven compaction shall be avoided. Before placing the successive layer, all rut aad other hollows more than six (6) inches in depth shall be regraded and compacted. After dumping the fill material on tie backfill surface, the material shall be spread by approved methods in approximately horizontal layers. These layers shall not be greater than six (6) inches in thickness after completion. The fill material in each layer, while being compacted, shale as nearly as practical contain the amount of moisture required for optimum compaction; and the moisture shall be uniform througho•at the fill . The Contractor ma/ be required to add necessary moisture the backfil " material in the excavation if, in the opinion of the soils engineer, it is not possible to obtain uniform moisture content by adding water on the fill surface. If, in the opinion of the soils engineer, the material proposed for use in the compacted fill is toc wet to permit adequate compaction, it shall be dried in an acceptable manner prior to placement and compaction. 5-4 When an acceptable, uniform moisture content is obtained, each layer shall be compacted by a method acceptable to the soils engineer and as specified in the foregoing report as determined by the ASTM Standard Test D-698. Compaction shall be performed by rolling with approved sheepsfoot, pneumatic tired roller, three-wheel power rollers, or other approved equipment well suited to the soil being compacted. If a sheepsfoot roller is used, it shall be provided with cleaner bars so attached as to prevent the accumulation of material between the tamper feet. The rollers should be so designed that the effective weight can he increased. Backfilling shall he performed only when authorized by the Engineer. Backflling shall not be done in f^eezing weather or with frozen materals, unless adequate protection is provided. 5.04.03 Trenches. All backfill material ii trenches shall be compacted to a minimum of 90% of maximum density as determined by ASTM Standard Test U-698. Backfill in trenches jeneath pavements in roads, and in road shoulders shall he compacted to 90% of maximum density up to the last eighteen (18) inches, which shall be compacted to 95% of maximum density as determined by ATM Standard Test D-698. The moisture content of the backfill material shall he at or above optimum moisture content when placed. From .:he bottom of the trench to six (6) inches above "he highest point on the pipe the backfill shall be compacted with hand-operated tamping equipment of a type satisfactory to the Engineer. Tne remainder of the backfill may be compacted with motorized equipment of a size and type which will not injure the pipe. Under no conditions will flooding or jetting be used as a means of compacting. Backfill in proposed street areas shown by the plans shall be the same as that indicated above for backfill in trenches beneath pavements. 5.04 .04 Structural Backfill . All structural backfill shall be compacted Lo a minimum of 9%cf maximum density as determined by ASTM Standard Test D-698. After completion of foundation footings and well and other contruction below the elevation of the final grades, all forms shall he removed and the excavation cleaned of all trash and deheis prior to backfiliing . Structures which have been designed to be supported in some manner in addition to the footings shall not be backtifled until the supports have been completed. The approval of the Engineer ;hall be obtained prior to making any backfills of this type. Damage to the structure resulting from improper or premature backfill will be tie Contractor' s responsibility, and all such damage shall be removed and repaired or replaced at the Contractor's expense. 5-5 Material for backfilling shall consist of the material excavated subject to the approval of the Engineer, and shall be free from all trash, debris, rock, or other objectionable material . If required, the Contractor shall furnish acceptable borrow material for backfilling the excavation. Backfill shall be accomplished by placing the previously moistened material in thin layers and compacting each layer with hand or mechanical tampers so that when complete, the entire mass shall be at a density (as measured by the Engineer) , equal to or greater than the adjacent surrounding earth or to a density as may be specified in the special provisions. 5.04.05 Embankment. Embankments shall be formed of satisfactory materials placed in successive horizontal layers of not more than eight (8) inches in loose depth for the full width of the cross section. All materials entering the embankment shall be reasonably free of organic matter such as leaves, grass, roots and other object4oiahle material . The operations on earthwork shall be suspended at any time when satis- factory results cannot be obtained on account of rain, freez4ng weather, or other unsatisfactory conditions of the field. At all times the Contractor shall drag, blade, or slope the embankment tc provide proper surface drainage. The material in the layers shall be of the proper moisture content before rolling to obtain the prescribed compaction. Wetting or drying of the material and manipulation, to secure a uniform mo' stire content throughout the layer shall be required. Should the matcri:il be too .cet to permit proper compaction oe rolling, all work on all portions of Loe embankment thus affected ehal be delayed until the material has arid to the required moisture content. Sprinkling shall be done with sprinkling wagons, pressure distributors, or other approved ec,uipment that will sufficiently distribute the water. Sufficieno equipment to furnish the required water shill be available at all times. Rolling operations shall be continued until the embankment is cor oacted to not less than 95% of the maximum density at optimum roisture as determined by ;1STM Standard Test D-698. Any areas inac.:eosib- e to a roller shall be compacted by mechanical tampers. During construction of the embankment, the Contractor shall route hi equipment at all times both when loaded and when empty over the layers as they are placed and shall distribute the travel evenly over the entire width of the embankment. 5-6 In the construction of the embankments, starting layers shall be placed in the deepest portion of the fill , and, as placement progresses, layers shall be constructed approximately parallel to the finished grade line. The Contractor shall be responsible for the stability of all embankments made under the contract and shall replace any portion which,, in the opinion of the Engineer, has become displaced due to carelessness or negligence on the part of the Contractor. The compacting equipment shall be of such design, weight and quantity to obtain the required density. 5.05 T bpsoil . The topsoil required to be placed, as shown on the plans , shall be salvaged from stripping or other grading operations. The topsoil shall meet the approval of the Engineer. If at the time of excavation or stripping the topsoil cannot be placed in its proper and final section of finished construction, the material shall be stockpiled at approved locations. Stockpiles shall not be placed on areas which subsequently will require any excavation or embankment. Upon completion of grading operations as herein specified, topsoil shall be placed at the locations shown on the plans and as directed by the Engineer. 5.06 Watering. his item shall consist of furnishing and applying water' required in the compaction of embankment, structural backfill , and for other purposes as directed by the Engineer. Water, when required, shall be applied at the locations , and in the amounts as directed by the Engineer. An adequate water supply shall be provided by the Contractor. The equipment used for waterirg shall be of ample capacity and of such design as to assure uniform application of water in the amounts directed by the Engineer. No payment will be made separately or directly for watering on any part of the work. All watering will be considered a necessary and incidental part of the work and the cost thereof shall be considered by the Contractor and included in the unit cost of compacting embankment ana structural backfill . 5.07 Disposal of Excess Material . It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to remove 'and dispose cf all excess and unusable material in a manner and a location approved by the Owner. 5.08 Grading and Cleanup. General grading, where required to brir, the finished ground surface to grade, shall be done to the elevations shown on the plans. When finished , the entire area shall be graded to present a smooth, neat appearance with the drainage away from the structures. The entire area will be cleaned of all construction debris and left 'n a neat, workmanlike appearance. 5-7 5.09 Seeding. All exposed areas shall be seeded as directed by the Engineer, when provided for in the special conditions or shown on the plans. Unless otherwise specified the area shall be seeded with Fairway mixture Crested Wheat grass, applied at the rate of twenty (20) pounds per acre. Seed shall be planted in a properly prepared seed bed in accordance with the seed supplier's recommendations. The Contractor shall perform what- ever mulching, sprinkling, or irrigation operations that may be necessary to establish a uniform and healthy grass cover for the entire seeded area. However, sprinkling will be required at least once a week until a one (1 ) inch stand of grass is obtained. Payment shall be included in the contract unit price for earthwork. This price shall be full compensation for furnishing all materials, labor, tools, and incidentals necessary to complete the item. 5.10 Densiy Testing. Samples of representative fill materials to be placed shall be furnished by the Contractor to the soils engineer for deter- minatior, of maximum density and optimum moisture for these materials. Tests for this determination will he made using methods conforming to requirements of ASTM D-698. Copies of the results of these tests will be furnished to the Contractor. These test results shall be the basis of control for compaction effort. The density and moisture content of each layer of compacted fill will be determined by the soils engineer in accordance with ASTM D-1556, D-2167, or D-2922. Any material found to not comply with the minimum specified density shall be recompacted until the required density is obtained. The results of all density tests will he furnished to both the Owner and the Contractor by the soils engineer. 5.11 Trench Maintenance. The Contractor shall , for a period of one (1 ) year after completion and acceptance of the work, maintain and repair any trench settlement which may occur and shall make suitable repairs tc any pavement, sidewalks, or ether structures which may be damaged as a result of backfill settlement.

The material furnished shall conform to the approved job mix formula within the tolerance specified herein. 12.04.06 Job Mix Tolerances. Aggregate passing No. 4 + 8% Aggregate passing No. 10 + 6% Aggregate passing No. 200 sieve ± 3% Asphalt Cement ± 0.4% Mixture temperature upon delivery at job site 300 F. 12.04.07 Placement. Prior to placement of the surface coarse, the base hall be cleaned of all dirt or other foreign matter. When the new pavement abuts the old paving, the Contractor shall , at his own expense, cat back the old pavement as directed by the Engineer and paint the edge of the old pavement with a coat of hot asphalt cement cr cut back asphalt cement. The asphaltic pavement shall be placer only when the base is dry and weather conditions are suitable. The asphaltic pavement shall have a density of not less than ninety three (93. percent of the calculated density of a voidless mixture composed of the same material in like proportions. Density of the voidless mixture shall he calculated by the following formula: 100 Density of Voidless Mix = Pct. Min. Agq. by Wt.+ Pct. As. by Wt._ Sp. Gr. Min. Agg. Sp. Gr. As . While the surface is being compacted and finished, the Contractor shall carefully trim the outside edges of the pavement to the proper align- ment. No surfacing shall be placed unless the atmospheric temperature in the shade is at least forty (40) degrees F. anc rising or fifty (50) degrees F. if falling, and other weather conditions are suitable. In no case shall pavements be laid on foundations in which frost is present. 12-4 12.04.08 Paving Plant Inspection. The Contractor shall provide for continuous performance of the tests described herein by a representative of a reputable testing laboratory or other means approved by the Engineer. 12.05 Construction. 12.05.01 General Conditions. The mixture shall be laid only when the base is dry, and only when weather conditions are suitable. The mixture shall be laid only when atmospheric temperatures are above 40 degrees Fahrenheit and rising, and when no frost exists in the subgrade. 12.05.02 Transportation of Mixture. The mixture shall be transported from the paving plant to the work in vehicles equipped with tight metal compartments previously cleaned of all foreign materials . When directed by the Engineer, the compartments shall be suitably insulated and each load shall be covered with canvas or other suitable material of sufficient size to protect it from weather conditions . The inside surface of all vehicle compartments used for hauling mixture must be lightly lubricated with a thin oil just before loading, but excessive lubricant will not be permitted . No loads shall be sent out so late in the day as to interfere with spreading and compacting the mixture during daylight. Loads of asphaltic concrete mixture shall be weighed by the Engineer before being placed. 12.05.03 Placing Asphalt Mixture. The mixture shall be delivered on the work at a temperature of not less than 275 degrees Fahrenheit . The desired temperature shall be set by the Engineer and shall he maintained within plus or minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit . Unless otherwise permitted by the Engineer, the mixture shall be spread by means of a mechanical self-powered paver, capable of spreading the mixture true to the line, grade and crown set by the Engineer. Hand-placing and spreading will be permitted in irregular areas (or when strips less than 10 feet in width are to be paved . ) Pavers shall be equipped with hoppers and distributinc screws of the reversing type to place the mixture evenly in front of adjustable screeds. The mixture shall be dumped in the center of the hoppers and care exercised to avoid overloading and spilling over of the mixer upon the base. Pavers shall operate wher laying mixtrres at s:"ch speed between ten (10) and twenty (20) feet per minute as may ie decided by the Engineer. Pavers shall be equipped with a quick and efficient steering device and shall have forward and reverse traveling speeds of not less than 100 feet per minute. Unless operating on fixed side forms, pavers shall employ mechanical devices such as equalizing runners, straightedge runners , evener arms or other compensating devices to adjust the grade and confine the edges of the mixture to true lines without the use of stationary side forms. The pavers shall be capable of spreading the mixtures, without 12-5 • segregation, in thickness of from one-half (1/2) inch to not less than three (3) inches, to a maximum width of not less than fourteen (14) feet, in steps of one (1 ) foot or less, to a minimum width of eight (8) feet. They shall be equipped with blending or joint leveling devices for smoothing and adjusting all longitudinal joints between adjacent strips of courses of the same thickness. The term "screed" includes a "strike-off" device operated by cutting, crawling, or other practical action which is effective on the mixture at workable temperature without tearing , shoving or gouging, and which produces a finished surface of the evenness and texture specified . The screed shall be adjustable as to level and shall have an indicating level attached. Immediately after any course is screeded, and before roller compaction is started, the surface shall be checked, any inequalities adjusted, all fat sandy accumulation from the screed removed by a rake or hoe, and all fat spots in any course removed and replaced with satisfactory material . Irregularities in alignment and grade along the outside edge shall also be corrected by the addition or removal of mixture before the edge is rolled. The Contractor shall provide a competent workman who capable of performing the work incidental to the correction of all pavement irregularities. Special attention shall be given by him to the straightedging of each course, immediately following tie initial rolling. In narrow, deep or irregular sections, intersections , turnouts or driveways where it is impractical to spread and finish the mixtures by machine methods, the Contractor may use approved spreading equipment or acceptable hand methods as directed by the Engineer. When the mixture is to be spread by hand, upon arrival on the work, it shall be dumped upon a steel dump board outside the area on which it is to be spread, or shoveled directly from the truck to the area on which it is to be spread. Immediately thereafter, it shall be distributed into place by means of hot shovels and spread with hot rakes in a loose layer of uniform density and correct depth. Tines of the rakes shall be not less than one-half (1/2) inch longer than the loose depth of mixture and spaces between tines shall be not less than the maximum diameter of aggregate particle except that in no case should the spaces be less than one (1 ) inch. Loads shall not ,,e dumped any faster than they can be properly handled by she shovelers . The shovelers shall not distribute the dumped load faster than it can be properly handled by the rakers . 12-6 • The rakers will not be permitted to stand in the hot mixture while raking it, except where necessary to correct errors in the first raking. The raking must be carefully and skillfully done in such a manner that after the first passage of the roller over the raked mixture, a minimum amount of back patching will be required. Placing mixtures shall be continuous as possible and the roller shall pass over the unprotected edge of the freshly laid mixture only when the laying of this course is to be discontinued for such intervals of time as to permit the mixture to become chilled. 12.05.04 Joints. Transverse construction joints shall be made in a careful manner. The edge of the previously laid course shall be cut back as far as necessary to eliminate irregularities incidental to finishing and rolling . After laying the finished mixture adjacent to a transverse construction joint, a skilled laborer shall follow up each rolling with a straight- edge and corrective measures to insure a smooth riding surface. He shall be equipped with hot smoothing irons , tampers and other devices for use in truing up the pavement surface adjacent to the , pint. Longitudinal joints against both hot and cold material shell be made with equal care. Mixtures spread and compacted (or partially compacted) by the machine, shall not be disturbed by a rake in dressing the joint, unless one side is too high, nor shall surplus mixture he spread or scatted back of the machi 'te when not needed to build up low ;Jots . When spreading next to the warm or cold edge of a previously aid section of surfacing, the machine shall be adjusted to leave a "bead" of material , roughly one (1 ) inch by one (1 ) inch_ wh ch js to he rolled in to compensate for uneven density at the j int . If one side of the joint is cold, the "bead" shall be moved with the back cf the rake to the warm side of she joint, but otherwise tie machine-laid mixture shall not be disturbed. In making the joint along any adjoining edge such a; eurb, gutt, • . adjoining pavement, and after the hot mixture is placed hy the t n h; + '. machine, just enough of the hot material shall be carried ba.:k t fill any space left open, and provide a .:mall "bead" of ext.re inateria . This joint shall be properly "set-up" with the back of rake at proper height and bevel to receive the maximum compression under roll Hg. fhe work of "setting-up" this joir:u shall be performed always by competent workmen, who are capable of making a correct, clean and neat jelat• . Before placing mixture against contact surfaces of cold pavement joints, curbs, gutters, headers, manholes, et cetera , shall be painted with a thin uniform coating of hot asphalt cement cr asphalt cc ent dissolved in naphtha. 12.05.05 Compaction of the Mixture. After spreading, the mixture shall be thoroughly and uniformly compressed by a power-driven roller. Rolling equipment shall consist of steel wheel rollers and pneumatic-tired rollers as provided herein. 12-7 • A. Steel Wheel Rollers. These may consist of two types : three-wheel macadam type rollers, or two-wheel tandem rollers. Steel -wheeled , power rollers shall be equipped with a power unit of not less than four (4) cylinders. Tandem-type rollers shall weigh not less than eight (8) tons, and shall weigh not less than 200 pounds to the inch width of tread. Three-wheel type power rollers shall weigh not less than twelve ( 12) tons and shall provide a compression on the rear wheels of not less than 325 pounds per lineal inch of tire width. B. Pneumatic-Tired Rollers. These shall be self-propelled of the double axle type, shuttle speed transmission and rear wheel drive, having a width of not less than four (4) feet, nor more than seven (7) feet, and equipped with pneumatic tires of equal size and diameter. Treads of pneumatic tired rollers shall be sufficiently smooth so that they do not leave perceptible tread marks at any time during rolling operations . The tires shall be so spaced as to give complete coverage. The roller shall be equipped with mechanical means of distributing the contact pressure uniformly, inflated so that the air pressure in the several tires shall not vary more than five (5) pounds per square inch and shall not be less than 45 pounds per square inch. Pneumatic-tired rollers shall be so constructed thit the total weight of the roller can be varied to produce an operating weight per tire of between 1 ,000 and 2,000 pounds , and, during the operation, the total operating weight of the roller shall be varied as directed by the Engineer. Rolling of the mixture shall. consist of three separate operatiion3 : (1 ) breakdown rolling; (2) pneumatic rolling; and (3) final rolling. Hourly production up to 100 tons - one (1 ) steel wheel roller and one (1 ) pneumatic-tired roller. Hourly production from 100 to 150 tons - two (2) steel wheel rollers and one (1 ) pneumatic-tired roller. Hourly production over 150 tons - two (2) steel wheel rollers and two (2) pneumatic-tired rollers. The breakdown rolling shall be done with a throe-wheel roller weighing not less than twelve (12) tons, or a tandem roller weighing not less than eight (8) tons, as soon after spreading the mixture as it can be done without undue displacement. Delays in rolling of fresh mixture shall not be tolerated. Rolling shall start longitudinally at the sides and proceed toward the center of the base, overlapping on successive trips by at least one-half the width of the rear wheel . At unsupported edges, the roller shall cover the edge but shall not overhang the edge more than two (2) inches. Narrow bands of unrolled surface shall not be left to be rolled with an adjoining section except for hot joints. Points of reversing the roller shall he staggered at both ends of each trip. The breakdown rolling operation shall consist of two (2) complete coverages by the roller. 12-8 • The speed of the roller shall not exceed three (3) miles per hour, and shall at all times be slow enough to avoid displacement of the hot mixture. Any displacements occurring as a result of reversing the direction of the roller or from any other cause shall at once be corrected. To prevent adhesion of the mixture to the steel rollers , the wheels shall be kept properly moistened with water or water and a detergent, but excessive use of water will not be permitted . Oil will not be permitted for this purpose. The pneumatic rolling shall be done by the pneumatic-tired roller and shall begin at a time when the mix is still hot and slightly plastic and will show small roller marks. This rolling shall continue until a minimum of four (4) complete coverages have been made and the surface is thoroughly compacted, after which the surface shall be given a final rolling with a two-wheel tandem roller, and the rolling continued until proper density is attained. The rollers shall be in good condition , capable of reversing without back lash. They shall be operated by competent and experienced rollermen, and must be kept in continuous operation as nearly as practicable in such a manner that all parts of the pavement shall receive substantially equal compression. Along curbs , headers , manholes and similar structures and at all places not accessible to the roller, thorough compaction must be secured by means of hot tampers and at all contacts of this character, the joints between these structures and the surface mixture must be effectively sealed. The course, after final compressions , shall conform to the following requirements: It shall be smooth and true to the established crown and grade. It shall have the average thickness specified and shall at no point vary more than one-fourth (1/4) inch from the thickness shown on the typical cross sections on the plans. Any low or defective asphalt shall immediately be remedied by cutting out the course at such spots and replacing it with fresh, hot mixture which shall be immediately com- pacted to conform with the surrounding area and shall be thoroughly bonded to it. "Skin" patches wil'. not be permitted. The surface of the finished pavement shall he free from dep-essionv exceeding one- fourth (1/4) inch as measured with a ten (10) foot straightedge paralleling the centerline of the roadway . After final compression, the finished surface course shall at no point. have a density less than 93 percent of the maximum density possible to obtain in a voidless pavement composed of the same materials in like proportions. Density shall be determined upon specimens cut from the finished pavement by the Engineer. 12-9 12.06 Measurement and Payment. Payment for asphaltic concrete surface course shall be based on the number of square yards of pavement actually constructed at the locations designated on the plans or by the Engineer. Said payment shall constitute full compensation for all materials, including asphalt cement, spreading, compaction and other work incidental to finishing or placing the asphaltic mat. 12-10 H.E.W.
