If any of the results do not compare favorably, then the Resolution samples from the LOT will be sent to the Resolution laboratory for testing, as described in 334- 5 . 6 . 334-5.5 .2 Roadway Testing : At the completion of each LOT, the Engineer will determine the density (G, ,b) of each core (previously tested by Quality Control) as described in 334- 5 . 1 . 1 from the same sublot as the Plant samples . For situations where roadway density is not required for the random sublot chosen, then another sublot shall be randomly chosen for roadway density cores only. Results of the testing and analysis for the LOT will be made available to the Contractor within one working day from the time the LOT is completed. The individual Verification test results will be compared with individual Quality Control test results by the Engineer based on the between -laboratory precision values given in Table 334-6 . If each of the core test results compare favorably, then the LOT will be accepted with respect to density, with payment based on the Contractor ' s Quality Control test data for the LOT . If any of the results do not compare favorably, then the core samples from the LOT will be sent to the Resolution laboratory for testing as specified in 334 - 5 . 6 . 334-5 . 6 Resolution System : 334-5 . 6. 1 Plant Samples : In the event of an unfavorable comparison between the Contractor ' s Quality Control test results and the Engineer ' s Verification test results on any of the properties identified in Table 334 - 6 , the Resolution laboratory will test all of the split samples from the LOT for only the property (or properties) in question . Resolution samples shall be reheated at the target roadway compaction temperature for 1 - 1 /2 hours plus or minus 5 minutes , reduced to the appropriate testing size , and conditioned and tested as described in 334 - 5 . 1 . 1 . 334-5 . 6 . 2 Roadway Samples : In the event of an unfavorable comparison between the Contractor ' s Quality Control test data and the Engineer ' s Verification test data on the density results , the Resolution laboratory will test all of the cores from the LOT . Testing will be as described in 334- 5 . 1 . 1 . Any damaged roadway cores will not be included in the evaluation; replace damaged cores with additional cores at the direction of the Engineer. 334-5 . 6.3 Resolution Determination : The Resolution test results (for the property or properties in question) will be compared with the Quality Control test results based on the between- laboratory precision values shown in Table 334 - 6 . If the Resolution laboratory results compare favorably with all of the Quality Control results , then acceptance and payment for the LOT will be based on the Quality Control results , and the Department will bear the costs associated with Resolution testing . No additional compensation, either monetary or time , will be made for the impacts of any such testing. If the Resolution laboratory results do not compare favorably with all of the Quality Control results , then acceptance and payment for the LOT will be based on the Resolution test data for the LOT, and the costs of the Resolution testing will be deducted from monthly estimates . No additional time will be granted for the impacts of any such testing . In addition, in the event that the application of the Resolution test data results in a failure to meet the requirements of Table 334- 5 , address any material represented by the failing test result in accordance with 334- 5 . 9 . 5 . - 93 - FPID (S ) : 423186 - 1 - 58 -01 k
