i of the intersection will be from stop bar to stop bar for both the mainline and side streets. In the event the Engineer identifies a surface irregularity in the above areas that is determined to be objectionable, straightedge and address all deficiencies in excess of 3/8 inch in accordance with 334-5.10.4. 334-5.10.4 Correcting Unacceptable Pavement: Correct deficiencies in the pavement layer by removing and replacing the full depth of the layer,extending a minimum of 50 feet on both sides (where possible) of the defective area for the full width of the paving lane, at no additional cost. 334-6 Acceptance of the Mixture. 334-6.1 General: The asphalt mixture will be accepted based on the Asphalt Work Category as defined below: 1. Asphalt Work Category 1 —Certification by the Contractor as defined in 334- 6.2. 2. Asphalt Work Category 2 — Certification and process control testing by the Contractor as defined in 334-6.3. 3. Asphalt Work Category 3 — Process control testing by the Contractor and acceptance testing by the Engineer as defined in 334-6.4. 334-6.2 Certification by the Contractor: On Asphalt Work Category 1 construction, the Engineer will accept the mix on the basis of visual inspection. Submit a Notarized i Certification of Specification Compliance letter on company letterhead to the Engineer stating that all material produced and placed on the project meets the requirements of the Specifications.The Engineer may run independent tests to determine the acceptability of the material. 334-6.3 Certification and Process Control Testing by the Contractor: On Asphalt Work Category 2 construction, submit a Notarized Certification of Specification Compliance letter on company letterhead to the Engineer stating that all material produced and placed on the project meets the requirements of the Specifications, along with supporting test data documenting all process control testing as described in 334-6.3.1. If required by the Contract, j utilize an Independent Laboratory as approved by the Engineer for the process control testing. j The mix will also require visual acceptance by the Engineer. In addition,the Engineer may run independent tests to determine the acceptability of the material. Material failing to meetthese j acceptance criteria will be addressed as directed by the Engineer such as but not limited to acceptance at reduced pay, delineation testing to determine the limits of the questionable material, removal and replacement at no cost to the agency, or performing an Engineering analysis to determine the final disposition of the material. 334-6.3.1 Process Control Sampling and Testing Requirements: Perform process control testing-at a frequency.of once per-day-Obtain the samples in accordance with FDOT Method FM 1-T 168. Test the mixture at the plant for gradation (P-8 and P_200) and asphalt binder content(Pb). Measure the roadway density with 6 inch diameter roadway cores at a minimum frequency of once per 1,500 feet of pavement with a minimum of three cores per day. Determine the asphalt binder content of the mixture in accordance with j FDOT Method FM 5-563. Determine the gradation of the recovered aggregate in accordance with FDOT Method FM 1-T 030. Determine the roadway density in accordance with FDOT Method FM 1-T 166. The minimum roadway density will be based on the percent of the maximum specific gravity(Gmm)from the approved mix design. if the Contractor or Engineer suspects that the mix design Gmm is no longer representative of the asphalt mixture being 01025-43 Technical Specifications FAPublic Works\ENGINEERING DIVISION PROJECTS\1123 43rd Ave Sidewalk Improvements 26th St.to Airport Dr West\Admim\bid documents\Master Contract Documents\Technical Specifications.doc
