PROCUREMENT OBJECTIV ES. This chapter describes the aims and deliverables of Mineral Material Study (hereinafter - Study) which is focusing on assessing the suitability of locally produced aggregates in Lithuania according to the Rail Baltica Design Guidelines (RB DG) and UIC 719R requirements for constructing the embankment, prepared subgrade and subballast layers of Rail Baltica railway and providing technically and financially feasible solutions to expand the possibilities to use locally available soils and aggregates. Assessing the locally produced aggregates according to the Rail Baltica Design Guidelines’ ballast requirements is not within the scope of this Study. The study consists of: • Fieldworks (sampling in Lithuania); • Laboratory testing according to the test methods described in this document (see Table 1); • Comparing and analyzing the results with the RB DG (Annex A) and UIC 719R requirements and Annex B frost susceptibility criteria; • Describing laboratories’ capabilities and capacities to do the tests described in this document in Lithuania; • Solving engineering tasks described in this document (Work Packages 2 and 3); • Preparing inception, interim and final reports presenting the findings and solutions/recommendations by the Consultant2 for designing and constructing Rail Baltica railway line in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. The deliverables of the Study are divided into three parts (Work Packages), which need to be carried out by the Consultant:
