Roadway Density (daily average) Minimum 90.0% of Gram 334-6.4 Process Control Testing by the Contractor and Acceptance Testing by the Engineer: On Asphalt Work Category 3, perform process control testing as described in 334- 6.3.1. In addition, the Engineer will accept the mixture at the plant with respect to gradation (P-8 and P-200) and asphalt binder content (Pb). The mixture will be accepted on the roadway with respect to density. The Engineer will sample and test the material as described in 334-6.3.1. The Engineer will randomly obtain at least one set of samples per day. Assure that the asphalt content, gradation and density test results meet the criteria in Table 334-4. Material failing to meet these 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=6.4.1 Acceptance Testing Exceptions: When the total quantity of any mix type in the project is less than 500 tons, the Engineer will accept the mix on the basis of visual inspection. The Engineer may run independent tests to determine the acceptability of the material. Density testing for acceptance will not be performed on widening strips or shoulders with a width of 5 feet or less, variable thickness overbuild courses, leveling courses, any asphalt layer placed on subgrade (regardless of type), miscellaneous asphalt pavement, shared use paths, crossovers, or any course with a specified thickness less than 1 inch or a specified spread rate less than 100 pounds per square yard. Density testing for acceptance will not be performed on asphalt courses placed on bridge decks or approach slabs; compact these courses in static mode only. In addition, density testing for acceptance will not be performed on the following areas when they are less than 1,000 feet continuous in length: turning lanes, acceleration lanes, deceleration lanes, shoulders, parallel parking lanes, or ramps. Density testing for acceptance will not be performed in intersections. The limits of the intersection will be from stop bar to stop bar for both the mainline and side streets. Compact these courses in accordance with a standard rolling procedure approved by the Engineer. In the event that the rolling procedure deviates from the approved procedure, placement of the mix will be stopped. 334-7 Method of Measurement. For the work specified under this Section, the quantity to be paid for will be the weight of the mixture, in tons. The bid price for the asphalt mix will include the cost of the liquid asphalt and the tack coat application as specified in 334-5.5.4. There will be no separate payment or unit price adjustment for the asphalt binder material in the asphalt mix. 334-8 Basis of Payment. - 334-8.1 General: Price and payment will be full compensation for all the work specified under this Section. Item of Payment Payment for the work specified in this item shall be made under: Bid Item No. 334-1-13 - Superpave Asphaltic Conc, Traffic C, (PG 76-22, with Polymer) (SP 12.5, 2 Lifts of 1.5") - Per Ton 01025-36 Technical Specifications F:\Public Works\ENGINEERING DIVISION PROJECTS\1503-43rd Ave Swk_Airport Dr to 41st St\1-Admin\Bids\Bid Documents\Master Contract Documents\Technical Specifications.doc
