The contractor shall ensure that all employees are trained and made aware of the importance of quality workmanship and how to achieve quality in changing, non-ideal cold weather conditions. The contractor shall detail a method of achieving acceptable levels of compaction based on soil temperatures, exposure time and temperature, lift thicknesses, base temperature and weather conditions (ambient temperatures and wind chill) to the satisfaction of the Department’s Engineer.
Placement and Compaction. For placement and compaction, include: ⏹ proposed agenda for mandatory pre-paving meeting, including date and location; ⏹ proposed paving plan (e.g., paving widths, joint offsets, and lift thicknesses); ⏹ type and application method for release agents in the paver and on rollers, shovels, xxxxx, and other utensils; ⏹ procedures for the transfer of mixture into the paver, while avoiding segregation and preventing material spillage; ⏹ process to balance production, delivery, paving, and compaction to achieve continuous placement operations and good ride quality; ⏹ paver operations (e.g., operation of wings, height of mixture in auger chamber) to avoid physical and thermal segregation and other surface irregularities; and ⏹ procedures to construct quality longitudinal and transverse joints.
Placement and Compaction. All materials placed by the City shall be graded to a finished grade and compacted in not greater than 12 inch lifts to the same standard as a building pad as required under the applicable City building ordinance.
