PART 1 - WAGE AND LABOR REQUIREMENTS
a. M1m1mum rllages.
C 1 ) All laborers and mechanics employed or working upon the 3i te of the
work will be paid unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without
subsequent deduction or ~ebate on any account (except such payroll deductions as
are permitted by ~egulat1ons issued by the Secretary of Labor under the Copeland
Act (29 eFR Part 3)), the full amount of wages and bona fide fringe benefi ts (or
cash equivalents thereof) due at t~e of payment computed at rates not less than
those contained in the wage determination of the Secretary of Labor which 13
attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship
which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers and
mechanics. Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe
benefits under section 1(b)(Z) of the Davis-Bacon Act on behalf of laborers or
mechanics are considered wages paid to laborers or mechanics, subject to the provi-
sions of subparagraph a.(4) below; also, regular contributions made or COSt3
incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under
plans, funds, or programs ~Nh1ch cover the particular weekly period, are deemed to
be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period. Such laborers and
mechanics shall be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage
determination for the classification of work actually performed, without regard to
skill, except as proVided in paragraph d. of this clause. Laborers or mechanics

(2) (1) The contracting officer sbalJ. require that any class of laborers
or mechanics which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be
employed under the contract shall be classified in conformance with the wage
determ1.nat1on. The contracting officer shal~ approve an. additional. classification
and wage rate and fringe benefits therefor only when tbe following criteria have
been met:
(A) The work to be performed by the classification requested i3
not performed by a classificat1.on in the wage determ:.lnatj.on; and
(B) The classification 1s ut1.l1zed in the area by the construc-
tion industry; and __
(C) !he proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe
benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage
determination.
(i1) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed
in the classification (if known), or their representatives, and the contracting
officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated
for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken shall be sent
by the contracting officer to the Administrator of the Wage .and Hour Division,
Employment Standar-as Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, Washington, D.C.
20210. The Administrator, or an authorized representative, will approve, modify,
or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and
30 advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the
3D-day period that additional t~e is necessary. (Approved by the Office of
Management and Budget under OMB control n~ber 1215-0140.)
(i11) In the event the contractor, the laborers o~ mechanics to be
employed in the class~icat1on or their ~epresentat1ves and the contracting officer

designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), the contract~ng officer s~
refer the questions, including the views of all interested parties and the ~ecom-
AP1-1
~endation of the contracting officer, to the Administrator for determination. The
Administrator, or an authorized representative, ~ill issue a determination within
30 days of ~eceipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the
contracting officer ~ithin the 30-day period that additional time is necessary.
(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under OMB control number
1215-0140. )
(1v) The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate)
determined pursuant to subparagraphs (2)(11) or (111) of this paragraph, shall be
paid to all worke~ performing work in the classification under this contract from
the first day on which work is performed in the classification.
(3) Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class
of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an
hourly ~ate, the contractor shall either' pay the benefit as stated in ~he wage
determination or shall pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash
equivalent thereof.
(4) If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third
person, the contractor may consider- as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic
the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe bene-
fits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon
the T~1tten request of the contractor, that the applicable standards of the
Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor
to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the
plan or ~rogram. (Approved by the Office of Management and 3udget under OMB

~Nr1tten ~equest of an authorized ~9presen~at1ve of the Department of ~abor .~thhold
or cause to be 'Nithheld from the contract,or under this contract or my ot,her
Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other ~ederally-assi3ted
contract subject to Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, which is held by ~he

sidered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees,
and helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcon~rac~or ~he :ull amoun~ of

mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or helper, employed or working on the
site of work, all or part of the wages required by the contract, the Federal

applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension
of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have
ceased.
c. Payrolls and Basic Records.
(1) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the
contractor during the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years

worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including
rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash
equivalents thereof of the types described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-aacon
Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages
paid. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under paragraph a(4) of this
clause that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs
reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in
section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor shall ~ntain records
which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the
plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been
communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which
show the costs anticipated or the actual costs incurred in providing such benefits.
Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall main-
tain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and cer-

Apprenticeship and Train~g, or with a state Apprenticeship Agency recognized by
the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary
AP1-3
employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not
individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Bureau of
Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to
be aligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ~atio of
apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not ~e

under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage
rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be ?aid

~aid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work
actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in

rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly ~ate) specified in the
contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every
apprentice must be paid at not less than the ~ate specified in the registered
~rogram for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the
journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage dete~i~ation. Apprentices
shall ~e paid fringe benefits in accordance 'N1th the proVisions of the appren-
t~ceship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specifiy f~inge benefits,
apprentices ~us~ be ~aid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the ~age
jece~i~aticn :or the ~pplicable classi~ication. If the ldministr~cor dete~~es
~hat a dif~erent ~ractice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification,

PART II - EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY REQUIREMENTS
A. STANDARD FEDERAL EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS (EXECUTIVE ORDER 11246,
AS AMENDED).
1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographical area described in the
solicitation from which this contract resulted;
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance
Programs, United States Department of Labor, or any person to
whom the Director delegates authority;
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security
number used on the Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U.S.
Treasury Department Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:
(i) Black (all persons having origins in any of the Black African
racial groups not of Hispanic origin);
(ii) Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central
or South American or other Spanish Culture or origin,
regardless of race);
(iii) Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of
the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian
Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and
(iv) American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in
any of the original peoples of North America and maintaining
identifiable tribal affiliations through membership and
participation or community identification).
2. Whenever the Contractor, or any Subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a
portion of the work involving any construction trade, it shall physically
include in each subcontract in excess of $10,000 the provisions of these
specifications and the Notice which contains the applicable goals for
minority and female participation and which is set forth in the solicitations
from which this contract resulted.
3. If the Contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 CFR 60-4.5) in a
Hometown Plan approved by the U.S. Department of Labor in the covered
area either individually or through an association, its affirmative action
obligations on all work in the Plan area (including goals and timetables)
shall be in accordance with the Plan for those trades which have unions
participating in the Plan. Contractors must be able to demonstrate in
compliance with the provisions of any such Hometown Plan. Each
Contractor or Subcontractor participating in an approved Plan is
individually required to comply with its obligations under the EEO clause,
APl-7
and to make a good faith effort to achieve each goal under the Plan in each
trade in which it has employees. The overall good faith performance by
other Contractors or Subcontractors toward a goal in an approved Plan
does not excuse any covered Contractor's or Subcontractor's failure to take
good faith efforts to achieve the Plan goals and timetables.
NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS WHO ARE SIGNATORIES
TO A HOMETOWN PLAN
41 CFR 60-4.5 Hometown Plans
(a) A contractor participating, either individually or
through an association, in an approved Hometown Plan
(including heavy highway affirmative action plans) shall comply
with its affirmative action obligations under Executive Order
11246 by complying with its obligations under the Plan:
PROVIDED, That each contractor or subcontractor
participating in an approved Plan is individually required to
comply with the equal opportunity clause set forth in
41 CFR 60-1.4; to make a good faith effort to achieve the goals
for each trade participating in the Plan in which it has
employees; and that the overall good performance by other
contractors or subcontractors toward a goal in an approved Plan
does not excuse any covered contractor's or subcontractor's
failure to take good faith efforts to achieve the Plan's goals and
timetables. If a contractor is not participating in an approved
Hometown Plan it shall comply with the Specifications set forth
in Section 60-4.3 of this part and with the goals and timetables
for the appropriate area as listed in the Notice required by
41 CFR 60-4.2 with regard to that trade. For the purposes of
this part 60-4, a contractor is not participating in a Hometown
Plan for a particular trade if it:
(1) Ceases to be signatory to a Hometown Plan
covering that trade;
(2) Is signatory to a Hometown Plan for that trade
but is not party to a collective bargaining agreement for that
trade;
(3) Is signatory to a Hometown Plan for that trade
but is party to a collective bargaining agreement with labor
organizations which are not or cease to be signatories to the
same Hometown Plan for that trade;
(4) Is signatory to a Hometown Plan for that trade
and is party to a collective bargaining agreement with a labor
organization for that trade but the two have not jointly
executed a specific commitment to minority and female goals
and timetables and incorporated the commitment in the
Hometown Plan for that trade;
APl-8
(5) Is participating in a Hometown Plan for that
trade which is no longer acceptable to the Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs;
(6) Is signatory to a Hometown Plan for that trade
but is party to a collective bargaining agreement with a labor
organization for that trade and the labor organization and the
contractor have failed to make a good faith effort to comply
with their obligations under the Hometown Plan for that trade.
(b) Contractors participating in Hometown Plans must
be able to demonstrate their participation and document their
compliance with the provisions of the Hometown Plan.
4. The Contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards
provided in paragraphs 7a through p of these specifications. The goals set
forth in the solicitation from which this contract resulted are expressed as
percentages of the total hours of employment and training of minority and
female utilization the Contractor should reasonably be able to achieve in
each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area.
Covered construction contractors performing construction work in
geographical areas where they do not have a Federal or federally assisted
construction contract shall apply the minority and female goals established
for the geographical area where the work is being performed. Goals are
published periodically in the Federal Register in notice form, and such
notices may be obtained from any office of Federal Contract Compliance
Programs office or from Federal Procurement contracting officers. The
Contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress toward its
goals in each craft during the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the
failure by a union with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining
agreement, to refer either minorities or women shall excuse the
Contractor's obligations under these specifications, Executive Order 11246,
or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to be
counted in meeting the goals, such apprentices and trainees must be
employed by the Contractor during the training period, and the Contractor
must have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at
the completion of their training, subject to the availability of employment
opportunities. Trainees must be trained pursuant to training programs
approved by the U .5. Department of Labor.
7 The Contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal
employment opportunity. The evaluation of the Contractor's compliance
with these specifications shall be based upon its effort to achieve
maximum results from its actions. The Contractor shall document these
efforts fully, and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as
extensive as the following:
AP1-9
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment,
intimidation, and coercion at all sites, and in all facilities at which
the Contractor's employees are assigned to work. The Contractor,
where possible, will assign two or more women to each construction
project. The Contractor shall specifically ensure that all foremen,
superintendents, and other on-site supervisory personnel are aware of
and carry out the Contractor's obligation to maintain such a working
environment, with specific attention to minority or female
individuals working at such sites or in such facilities.
b. Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female
recruitment sources, provide written notification to minority and
female recruitment sources and to community organizations when the
Contractor or its unions have employment opportunities available,
and maintain a record of the organizations' responses.
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone
numbers of each minority and female off-the-street applicant and
minority or female referral from a union, a recruitment source or
community organization and of what action was taken with respect to
each such individual. If such individual was sent to the union hiring
hall for referral and was not referred back to the Contractor by the
union or, if referred, not employed by the Contractor, this shall be
documented in the file with the reason therefor, along with whatever
additional actions the Contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the
union or unions with which the Contractor has a collective bargaining
agreement has not referred to the Contractor a minority person or
woman sent by the Contractor, or when the Contractor has other
information that the union referral process has impeded the Contract
efforts to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in
training programs for the area which expressly include minorities and
women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship and trainee
programs relevant to the Contractor's employment needs, especially
those programs funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The
Contractor shall provide notice of these programs to the sources
compiled under 7b above.
f. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the
policy to unions and training programs and requesting their
cooperation in assisting the Contractor in meeting its EEO
obligations; by including it in any policy manual and collective
bargaining agreement; by publicizing it in the company newspaper,
annual report, etc., by specific review of the policy with all
management personnel and with all minority and female employees at
least once a year; and by posting the company EEO policy on bulletin
boards accessible to all employees at each location where
construction work is performed.
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative
action obligations under these specifications with all employees
APl - 10
having any responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff, termination
or other employment decisions including specific review of these
items with on-site supervisory personnel such as Superintendents,
General Foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of construction work at
any job site. A written record shall be made and maintained
identifying the time and place of these meetings, persons attending,
subject matter discussed, and disposition of the subject matter.
h. Disseminate the Contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in
any advertising in the news media, specifically including minority and
female news media, and providing written notification to and
discussing the Contractor's EEO policy with other Contractors and
Subcontractors with whom the Contractor does or anticipates doing
business.
i. Direct its recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority,
female and community organizations, to schools and minority and
female students and to minority and female recruitment and training
organization serving the Contractor's recruitment area and
employment needs.
Not later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance of
applications for apprenticeship or other training by any recruitment
source, the Contractor shall send written notification to
organizations such as the above, describing the openings, screening
procedures, and tests to be used in the selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other
minority persons and women and where reasonable provide after
school, summer and vacation employment to minority and female
youth both on the site and in other areas of a Contractor's workforce.
k. Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an
obligation to do so under 41 CFR Part 60-3.
1. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation at least of
minority and female personnel for promotional opportunities and
encourage these employees to seek or to prepare for, through
appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments
and other personnel practices, do not have a discriminatory effect by
continually monitoring all personnel and employment related
activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the Contractor's
obligations under these specifications are being carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated
except that separate or single-user toilet and necessary changing
facilities shall be provided to assure privacy between the sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for
subcontracts from minority and female construction contractors and
suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and female
contractor associations and other business associations.
AP 1 - 11
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to
and performance under the Contractor's EEO policies and affirmative
action obligations.
8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which
assist in fulfilling one or more of their affirmative action obligations (7a
through p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint contractor-union,
contractor-community, or other similar group of which the contractor is a
member and participant, may be asserted as fulfilling anyone or more of
its obligations under 7a through p of these Specifications provided that the
contractor actively participates in the group, makes every effort to assure
that the group has a positive impact on the employment of minorities and
women in the industry, ensures that the concrete benefits of the program
are reflected in the Contractor's minority and female workforce
participation, makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and
timetables, and can provide access to documentation which demonstrates
the effectiveness of actions taken on behalf of the Contractor. The
obligation to comply, however, is the Contractor's and failure of such a
group to fulfill an obligation shall not be a defense for the Contractor's
noncompliancee
9. A single goal for minorities and a separate single goal for women have been
established. The Contractor, however, is required to provide equal
employment opportunity and to take affirmative action for all minority
groups, both male and female, and all women, both minority and non-
minority. Consequently, the Contractor may be in violation of the
Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially
disparate manner (for example, even though the Contractor has achieved
its goal for women generally, the Contractor may be in violation of the
Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is underutilized).
10. The Contractor shall not use the goals and timetables or affirmative action
standards to discriminate against any person because of race, color,
religion, sex, or national origin.
11. The Contractor shall not enter into any Subcontract with any person or
firm debarred from Government contracts pursuant to Executive Order
11246, as amended.
12. The Contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of
these specifications and of the Equal Opportunity Clause, including
suspension, termination and cancellation of existing subcontracts as they
may be imposed or ordered pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as
amended, and its implementing regulations, by the Office of Federal
Contract Compliance Programs. Any Contractor who fails to carry out
such sanctions and penalties shall be in violation of these specifications and
Executive Order 11246, as amended.
13. The Contractor, in fulfilling its obligations under these specifications shall
implement specific affirmative action steps, at least as extensive as those
standards prescribed in paragraph 7 of these specifications, so as to
achieve maximum results from its efforts to ensure equal employment
opportunity. If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of
API - 12
the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these specifications,
the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 CFR 60-4.8.
14. The Contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all
employment related activity to ensure that the company EEO policy is
being carried out, to submit reports relating to the provisions hereof as
may be required by the Government and to keep records. Records shall at
least include for each employee the name, address, telephone numbers,
construction trade, union affiliation, if any, employee identification
number when assigned, social security number, race, sex, status (e.g.,
mechanic, apprentice, trainee, helper, or laborer), dates of changes in
status, hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of pay, and
locations at which the work was performed. Records shall be maintained in
an easily understandable and retrievable form; however, to the degree that
existing records satisfy this requirement, contractors shall not be required
to maintain separate records.
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the
application of other laws which establish different standards of compliance
or upon the application of requirements for the hiring of local or other area
residents (e.g., those under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and
the Community Development Block Grant Program).
B. CONTRACTOR CONTRACTUAL REQUIREMENTS.
1. Compliance with Regulations. The contractor shall comply with the
Regulations relative to nondiscrimination in federally assisted programs of
the Department of Transportation (hereinafter, "DOT") Title 49, Code of
Federal Regulations, Part 21, as they may be amended from time to time
(hereinafter referred to as the Regulations), which are herein incorporated
by reference and made a part of this contract.

discrimination prohibited by section 21.5 of the Regulations, including
employment practices when the contract covers a program set forth in
Appendix B of the regulations.
3. Solicitations for Subcontracts, including- Procurement of Materials and
Equipment. In all solicitations either by competitive bidding under a
subcontract, including procurements of materials or leases of equipment,
each potential subcontractor's obligation under this contract and the
Regulations relative to nondiscrimination on the grounds of race, color, or
national origin.
4. Information and Reports. The contractor shall provide all information and
reports required by the Regulations or directives issued pursuant thereto
and shall permit access to its books, records, accounts, other sources of
information, and its facilities as may be determined by the sponsor or the
Federal A viation Administration (FAA) to be pertinent to ascertain
AP1 - 13
compliance with such regulations, order, and instructions. Where any
information required of a contractor is in the exclusive possession of
another who fails or refuses to furnish this information, the contractor
shall so certify to the sponsor or the FAA, as appropriate, and shell set
forth what efforts it has made to obtain the information.
5. Sanctions for Noncompliance. In the event of the contractor's non-
compliance with the nondiscrimination provisions of this contract, the
sponsor shall impose such contract sanctions as it or the FAA may
determine to be appropriate, including, but not limited to:
a. Withholding of payments to the contractor under the contract until
the contractor complies, and/or
b. Cancellation, termination, or suspension of the contract, in whole or
in part.
6. Incorporation of Provisions. The contractor shall include the provisions of
paragraph 1 through 5 in every subcontract, including procurements of
materials and leases of equipment, unless exempt by the Regulations or
directives issued pursuant thereto. The contractor shall take such action
with respect to any subcontract or procurement as the sponsor of the FAA
may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions including sanctions for
noncompliance. Provided, however, that in the event a contractor becomes
involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or
supplier as a result of such direction, the contractor may request the

under construction shall be identified with painted barricades equipped with flashing
lights to warn pilots of construction in progress. The areas adjacent to the
construction must remain clear and free of debris which would prove a hazard to both
PSR - 1
personnel and aircraft operation thereon. Barricades shall be weighted sufficiently to
protect against overturning from prop wash, jet blast, or wind.
Under no circumstances is the Contractor allowed to use, cross, traverse, or perform
any construction tasks on the runways, taxiways, or actively used aircraft parking
aprons, unless permission has been properly authorized by the Director of Airports and
coordinated with the Engineer and appropriate FBO operations personnel in accordance
with paragraph 4.0.
The Contractor shall exercise extreme caution in the vehicle parking areas and access
roads, taking whatever measures necessary to insure the safety of personnel using the

2.0 BACKGROUND
Operational safety.for aircraft, vehicles, equipment, and personnel during construction
programs at an airport may be affected by obvious and many times subtle Contractor
induced hazards or marginal safety conditions that develop during the course of the
project. Examples of such hazards or marginal conditions which have occurred in the
past that resulted in accidents or incidents are:
2.1 Improperly supervised and/or open trenches and excavations adjacent to runways,
taxiways and apron areas.
2.2 Mounds of earth, construction material, temporary structures and other
obstacles in or in proximity to operational areas, including approach zones,
runway safety areas, and runway primary surfaces.
2.3 Runway, taxiway, or apron resurfacing projects which result in sharp or
excessive lips between the old and new surfaces at the runway, taxiway, or apron
edges and ends.
2.4 Heavy equipment, both stationary and mobile, operating or being left for
unnecessary periods of time within the boundaries of active airport movement
areas.
2.5 Operation of heavy equipment, storage of material or equipment where it may
degrade radiated signals or impair monitoring of terminal and enroute
navigational aids.
2.6 Tall but relatively low visibility equipment, such as cranes, drills, and the like
located in approach and other critical areas such as safety areas and primary
surfaces.
2.7 Improper or malfunctioning runway, taxiway or other lights or unlighted hazards.
2.8 Debris resulting from construction such as loose asphalt, aggregate, shipping
cartons, excess materials, and plastic bags located on or near runways, taxiways,
aprons, and safety areas.
2.9 Disruption of security: accidental or inadvertent opening of fencing protecting
passengers from aircraft operations and aircraft operating on or stored on ramps
or aprons.
PSR - 2
2.10 Hazards created due to weather conditions such as standing water on or adjacent
to runways, taxiways, and aprons; wind driven sand accumulations from
construction areas, etc.
2.11 Improper marking and lighting of runways, taxiways and displaced thresholds.
2.12 Deterioration or damage by construction of runway, taxiway or ramp markings or
lighting to the extent that visual guidance is no longer provided.
2.13 Runway, taxiway or ramp slipperiness caused by rubber deposits, painted
markings, or other contaminants or weather conditions.
2.14 Improper methods of marking temporarily closed operational areas such as the
use of portable street barricades.
2.15 Attractions for birds such as trash, grass seeding, or ponded water on or near
active operational areas.
3.0 SAFETY RESPONSIBILITY
The Airport Operator is responsible for maintaining and assuring operational safety
when hazardous or marginal conditions typical of construction projects develop at a
public use airport. He must inform users of the airport, the FAA Airway Facilities
Sector and Area Field Office, all commercial carriers, and airport tenants that
hazardous or marginal conditions may exist on the airport. If such conditions occur,
the Contractor shall immediately advise the Director of Airports.
3.1 Notice to Airmen (NOTAM): The Director of Airports will provide the necessary
information describing hazardous or marginal conditions to the FAA Flight
Service Station so that a Notice to Airmen (NOT AM) can be issued according to
established procedures. Pilots or persons engaged in aviation activities are
requested to report hazardous or marginal airport conditions to the airport
management, Air Traffic Facilities, Flight Standards Field Offices, or Airport
District Offices.
Insurance of NOT AMs must provide adequate time to allow users of the airport
to make other arrangements. The enable the provision of necessary NOTAM
information or advisories to airport service or tenants, no runway, taxiway,
apron, or airport roadway shall be closed without prior written approval of the
Director of Airports. If any portion of an Active Operational Area (AOA) is to
be closed, a minimum of 48 hours notice of requested closing shall be directed to
the Director of Airports.
It is important that NOT AMs be kept current and reflect the actual conditions
with respect to construction situations. Active NOT AMs should be reviewed
periodically by the Director of Airports and the Contractor to reflect current
conditions.

and/or users must confer with the Contractor to assure that the scheduling of
construction activities in conjunction with aircraft operations is fully
understood. Construction work should be phased so that it will result in
minimum delays to aircraft movement. In moving from one area of construction
activity to another area, appropriate advance notice shall be provided by the
Contractor to the Director of Airports, the Resident Project Representative, and
affected airport users. The Director of Airports will coordinate the Contractor's
proposed schedule of operations with the airport users and Flight Standards
District Office.
As required in Section 3.1, the Contractor shall notify the Director of Airports a
minimum of 48 hours prior to scheduling and initiating work that would require
closing of any portion of the runways, taxiways, and aprons to traffic.
4.0 GUIDELINES FOR SAFETY DURING CONSTRUCTION
These guidelines apply to all construction work which may affect the movement of
aircraft, operating procedures for aircraft and ground handling equipment, passenger
or cargo handling and the movement of emergency ground equipment.
4.1 Construction Activity and Aircraft Movements:
4.1.1 Prior to any construction activity affecting aircraft movement areas,
the Director of Airports and the Contractor will coordinate safety
requirements with airport users and appropriate representatives of the
FAA. This coordinated approach to construction activity will determine
any restrictions required for the project's special provisions which should
result in a minimum of interference to aircraft operations. For example:
the restrictions may result in closing a portion of the airport, runway or
taxiway areas for specified periods or they may result in phasing the
work to accomplish certain activities at selected times.
4.1.2 For construction activity to be performed in other than active
operational areas, the storage and parking of equipment and materials,
when not in use or about to be installed, should not encroach upon active
operational areas. In protecting operational areas, the minimum
clearances maintained for runways should be in agreement with Part 77
of the Federal Aviation Regulations.
4.1.3 Because of the necessity to accomplish construction within areas defined
by FAR Part 77, while aircraft operations are in progress, the following
distances from runway or taxiway edges and runway approach areas
could be authorized due to construction activity before it would be
necessary to close temporarily a runway or taxiway.
PSR - 4
Runway Ends: Construction equipment shall not penetrate a 34:1
approach surface.
Runway Edges: Construction activities shall not be permitted within 200
feet of the active runway centerline.
Taxiways: Construction activities shall not be permitted within 84 feet
from the centerline of an active taxiway.
4.1.4 The presence of construction equipment, rough grades, or open
excavation in excess of three (3) inches deep within the above areas will
require closure of runway, taxiway or operations areas until removed or
corrected. Warning signs, low profile weighted barriers, and yellow
flashing caution lights shall be located in taxi areas in advance of the
construction activities.
4.2 Limitation on Construction:
4.2.1 Open flame welding or torch cutting operations shall be prohibited,
especially near fuel farm areas, unless adequate fire and safety
precautions are provided and have been approved in writing by the
Director of Airports and County Fire Marshall.
4.2.2 Open trenches, excavations and stockpiled material at the construction
site should be prominently marked with orange flags and lighted with
approved flashing yellow light units (acceptable to the Director of
Airports and the FAA) during hours of restricted visibility and/or
darkness. Under!!Q circumstances are flare pots to be used.
4.2.3 Debris, waste, and loose material capable of causing damage to aircraft
landing gears, propellers or being ingested in jet engines shall not be
placed or allowed on or near active aircraft movement areas. Materials
such as asphalt coated aggregate particles and/or other objects tracked
on these areas shall be removed immediately and continuously during the
construction project.
4.2.4 Necessary temporarily stockpiled material within inactive. operation
areas or construction limits shall be constrained in a manner to prevent
movement resulting from aircraft blast or wind onto active operational
areas.
4.3 Motor Vehicle Operators:
4.3.1 Before Contractor personnel are allowed to proceed with construction,
they must be adequately schooled in the safety requirements of this plan
and checked carefully as to their understanding of the plan by the
Contractor. Their movements near or across the active operations area
must be supervised. Limitations imposed by authorized construction
program phasing must be understood; also the means whereby approval
and escort is provided for crossing unauthorized areas of aircraft
movement. Operation safety instructions shall be reviewed periodically,
especially as new personnel are added to Contractor's staff.
PSR - 5
4.3.2 When any vehicle operator other than personnel routinely working in the
aircraft movement area and runway approach area is required to travel
over any portion of that area, that operator should be escourted by
authorized personnel in a vehicle properly authorized to operate in the
area, or the vehicle must be provided with a flag on a staff so attached
to the vehicle that the flag will be readily visible. The flag should not be
less than three feet square, consisting of a checkered pattern of
international orange and white squares of not less than one foot on each
side and displayed in full view above the vehicle. A flag or escort
vehicle is not required for vehicles which have been painted, marked, and
lighted for routine use on aircraft movement areas and operated by
qualified personnel. Any vehicle operating on the movement area shall
also be equipped with a yellow flashing dome-type light in accordance
with local and/or state codes. All construction vehicles/equipment must
have automatic signalling devices to sound an alarm when moving in
reverse.
4.3.3 Vehicle operators crossing active movement areas shall be controlled by
either two-way radio communications, at 118.2 Mhz, by escort, flagman,
or signal light. Clearance should be confirmed by the vehicle operator's
personal observation that no aircraft is approaching his position.
4.3.4 It may be desirable to identify vehicles for control purposes by either
assigned initials or numbers prominently displayed on each side. The
identifying symbols should be of eight inch minimum, block type
characters of a color easily read. They may be applied by use of tape or
water soluble paint to facilitate removal.
4.4 Access to the Site: Contractor's access to the site shall be as shown on the plans
or as directed by the Director of Airports. No other access points shall be
allowed unless approved by the Director of Airports. All contractor traffic
authorized to enter the site shall be experienced in the route or guided by
contractor personnel. The contractor shall be responsible for traffic control to
and from the various construction areas on the site and for the operations of the
access gate to the site. A contractor's flagman or traffic control person shall
monitor and coordinate all contractor traffic at the access gate. The contractor
shall not permit any unauthorized construction personnel or traffic on the site.
The contractor is responsible for immediate cleanup of any debris deposted along
the access route as a result of his construction traffic. Directional signing at
the access gate and along the delivery route to the storage area, plant site or
work shall be as directed by the Director of Airports.
4.5 Materials Delivery to the Site: All contractor's material orders for delivery to
the work site will use as a delivery address the gate number assigned to the
access point at the contractor's storage site at the airport.

agency that may be authorized by the Owner to construct, reconstruct or maintain
such utility services or facilities during the progress of the work. In addition, the
Contractor shall control his operations to prevent the unscheduled interruption of such
utility services and facilities.
To the extent that such public or private utility services, FAA, NOAA and other
governmental agencies, and airport tenants such as ai~line operators are known to
exist within the limits of the contract work, the approximate locations have been
indica ted on the plans. .
It is understood and agreed that the Owner does not guarantee the accuracy or the
completeness of the location information relating to existing utility services,
facilities, or structures that may be shown on the plans or encountered in the work.
Any inaccuracy or omission in such information shall not relieve the Contractor of his
responsibility to protect such existing features. from damage or unscheduled
interruption of service.
It is further understood and agreed that the Contractor shall, upon execution of the
contract, notify the Owners of all such services or other facilities of his plan of
operations.
In addition to the general written notification hereinabove provided, it shall be the
responsibility of the Contractor to keep such individual owners advised of changes in
his plan or operations that would affect such owners.
Prior to commencing the work in the general vicinity of an existing utility service or
facility, the Contractor shall again notify each such owner of his plan of operation. If,
in the Contractor's opinion, the Owner's assistance is needed to locate the utility
service or facility or the presence of a representative of the Owner is desirable to
observe the work, such advice should be included in the notification. Such notification
shall be given by the most expeditious means to reach the utility owner no later than
two normal business days prior to the Contractor's commencement of operations in
such general vicinity. The Contractor shall furnish a written summary of the
GP - 37
notification to the Owner. The Contractor's failure to give the two days' notice
hereinabove provided shall be cause for the Owner to suspend the Contractor's
operations in the general vicinity of a utility service or facility.
When the outside limits of an underground utility service have been located and staked
on the ground, the Contractor shall be required to use excavation methods acceptable
to the Engineer within 3 feet of such outside limits at such points as may be required
to insure protection from damage due to the Contractor's operations.
Should the Contractor damage or interrupt the operation of a utility service or facility
by accident or otherwise, he shall immediately notify the proper authority and the
Engineer and shall take all reasonable measures to prevent further damage or
interruption of service. The Contractor, in such events, shall cooperate with the
utility service or facility owner and the Engineer continuously until such damage has
been repaired and service restored to the satisfaction of the utility or facility owner.
The Contractor shall bear all costs of damage and restoration of service to any utility'
service or facility due to his operations whether or not due to negligence or accident.
The Owner reserves the right to deduct such costs from any monies due or which
become due the Contractor or his surety.

will expeditiously make final inspection and notify the Contractor of final acceptance.
Such final acceptance, however, shall not preclude or estop the Owner from correcting
any measurement, estimate, or certificate made before or after completion of the
work, nor shall the Owner be precluded or estopped from recovering from the
Contractor or his surety, or both, such overpayment as may be sustained, or by failure
on the part of the Contractor to fulfill his obligations under the contract. A waiver on
the part of the Owner of any breach of any part of the contract shall not be held to be
a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

a portion of the cost to this improvement. The construction work and labor shall be
done in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida subject to the inspection and
approval of the State of Florida, Department of Transportation. The construction
work and materials, therefore, will be subject to such inspection by the State of
Florida, Department of Transportation or its agents as may be deemed necessary, but
such inspection will in no sense make the State of Florida, Department of
Transportation a party to this contract and will in no way interfere with the rights of
either party to the contract.

Should the Contractor elect to assign his Contract, said assignment shall be concurred
in by the surety, shall be presented for the consideration and approval of the Owner,
and shall be consummated only on the written approval of the Owner. In case of
approval, the Contractor shall file copies of all subcontracts with the Engineer.
80-02 NOTICE TO PROCEED. The Notice to Proceed shall state the date on which it
is expected the Contractor will begin the construction and from which date contract
time will be charged. The Contractor shall begin the work to be performed under the
contract within 10 days of the date set by the Owner in the written Notice to Proceed,
but in any event, the Contractor shall notify the Owner at least 24 hours in advance of
the time actual construction operations will begin.
80-03 PROSECUTION AND PROGRESS. The Contractor shall submit his progress
schedule for the Engineer's review at least five (5) working days (weekends excluded)
prior to the scheduled date of the Preconstruction Conference. The Contractor's
progress schedule may be used to establish major construction operations and to check
on the progress of the Work. The Contractor shall provide sufficient materials,
equipment, and labor to guarantee the completion of the project in accordance with
the plans and specifications within the time set forth in the proposal.
..
If the Contractor falls significantly behind the submitted schedule, the Contractor
shall, upon the Engineer's request, submit a revised schedule for completion of the
work within the contract time and modify his operations to provide such additional
materials, equipment, and labor necessary to meet the revised schedule. Should the
prosecution of the work be discontinued for any reason, the Contractor shall notify the
Engineer at least 24 hours in advance of resuming operations.
For AlP contracts, the Contractor shall not commence any actual construction prior to
the date on which the Notice to Proceed is issued by the Owner.
80-04 LIMITATION OF OPERATIONS. The Contractor shall control his operations
and the operations of his subcontractors and all suppliers so as to provide for the free

GP - 40
The construction work shall be accomplished in such a manner that the runway is
subject to closure only during the times required for construction, and that such
closures for construction receive timely publication of NOTAM as to timing and
frequency of occurances.
80-05 CHARACTER OF WORKERS, METHODS, AND EQUIPMENT. The Contractor
shall at all times employ sufficient labor and equipment for prosecuting the work to
full completion in the manner and time required by the contract, plans, and
specifica tions.
All workers shall have sufficient skill and experience to perform properly the work
assigned to them. Workers engaged in special work or skilled work shall have
sufficient experience in such work and in the operation of the equipment required to

Any person employed by the Contractor or by any subcontractor who, in the opinion of
"the Owner, does not perform his work in a proper and skillful manner or is intemperate
or disorderly shall, at the written request of the Owner, be removed forthwith by the
Contractor or subcontractor employing such person, and shall not be employed again in
any portion of the work without the approval of the Owner.
Should the Contractor fail to remove such person or persons or fail to furnish suitable
and sufficient personnel for the proper prosecution of the work, the Owner may
suspend the work by written notice until compliance with such orders.
All equipment which is proposed to be used on the work shall be of sufficient size and
in such mechanical condition as to meet the requirements of the work and to produce a
satisfactory quality of work. Equipment used on any portion of the work shall be such
that no injury to previously completed work, adjacent property, or existing airport
facilities will result form its use.
When the methods and equipment" to be used by the Contractor in accomplishing the
work are not prescribed in the contract, the Contractor is free to use any methods or
equipment that will accomplish the work in conformity with the requirements of the
contract, plans, and specifications.
80-06 TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF THE WORK. The Owner shall have the
authority to suspend the work wholly, or in part, for such period or periods as he may
deem necessary, due to unsuitable weather, or such other conditions as are considered
unfavorable for the prosecution of the work, or for such time as in necessary due to
the failure on the part of the Contractor to carry out orders given or perform any or
all provisions of the contract.
In the event that the Contractor is ordered by the Owner, in writing, to suspend work
for some unforeseen cause not otherwise provided for in the contract and over which
the Contractor has no control, the Contractor may be reimbursed for actual money
expended on the work during the period of shutdown. No allowance will be made for
anticipated profits. The period of shutdown shall be computed from the effective date
.of the Owner's order to suspend work to the effective date of the Owner's order to
resume work. Claims for such compensation shall be filed with the Owner within the
time period stated in the Owner's order to resume work. The Contractor shall submit
with his claim information substantiating the amount shown on the claim. No
provision of this article shall be construed as entitling the Contractor to compensation
OP - 41
for delays due to inclement weather, for suspensions made at the request of the
Contractor, or for any other delay provided for in the contract, plans, or
specifica tions.
If it should become necessary to suspend work for an indefinite period, the Contractor
shall store all materials in such manner that they will not become an obstruction nor
become damaged in any way. He shall take every precaution to prevent damage or
deterioration of the work performed and provide for normal drainage of the work. The
Contractor shall erect temporary structures where necessary to provide for traffic on,
to, or from the airport.
80-07 DETERMINATION AND EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIME. The number of
calendar days allowed for completion of the work shall be stated in the proposal and
contract and shall be known as the CONTRACT TIME.
Should the contract time require extension for reasons beyond the Contractor's
control, it shall be adjusted as follows:
(a) CONTRACT TIME based on CALENDAR DAYS shall be calculated weekly
by the Engineer. The Engineer will furnish the Contractor a copy of his weekly
statement of the number of calendar days charged against the contract time during
the week and the number of calendar days currently specified for completion of the
contract (the original contract time plus the number of calendar days, if any, that
have been included in approved CHANGE ORDERS or SUPPLEMENTAL
AGREEMENTS covering EXTRA WORK.
(b) CONTRACT TIME based on CALENDAR DAYS shall consist of the number
of calendar days stated in the contract counting from the effective date of the notice
to proceed and including all Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, and non-work days. All
calendar days elapsing between the effective dates of the orders to suspend and
resume all work, due to causes not.the fault of the Contractor, shall be excluded.
If the Contractor finds it impossible for reasons beyond his control to complete the
work within the contract time as specified, or as extended in accordance with the
provisions of this subsection, he may, at any time prior to the expiration of the
contract time as extended, make a written request to the Owner for an extension of
time setting forth the reasons which he believes will justify the granting of his
request. The Contractor's plea that insufficient time was specified is not a valid
reason for extension of time. If the Owner finds that the work was delayed because of
conditions beyond the control and with the fault of the Contractor, he may extend the
time for completion in such amount as the conditions justify. The extended time for
completion shall then be in full force and effect, the same as though it were the
original time for completion.
80-08 FAILURE TO COMPLETE ON TIME. For each calendar day, as specified in the
contract, that any work remains uncompleted after the contract time (including all
extensions and adjustments as provided in the subsection titled DETERMINATION
AND EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIME of this section) the sum speci(ied in the
contract and proposal as liquidated damages will be deducted from any money due or
to become due the Contractor or his surety. Such deducted sums shall not be deducted
as a penalty but shall be considered as liquidation of a reasonable portion of damages
that will be incurred by the Owner should the Contractor fail to complete the work in
the time provided in his contract.
GP - 42
Permitting the Contractor to discontinue and finish the work or any part of it after
the time fixed for its completion, or after the date to which time for completion may
be extended, will in no way operate as a waiver on the part of the Owner of any of its
rights under the contract.
80-09 DEFAULT AND TERMINATION OF CONTRACT. The Contractor shall be
considered in default of his contract and such default will be considered as cause for
the Owner to terminate the contract for any of the following reasons if the
Contractor:
(a) Fails to begin the work under the contract within the time specified in the
"Notice to Proceed," or
(b) Fails to preform the work or fails to provide sufficient workers, equipment
or materials to assure completion of work in accordance with the terms of the
contract, or
(e) Performs the work unsuitably or neglects or refuses to remove materials or
to perform anew such work as may be rejected as unacceptable and unsuitable, or
(d) Discontinues the prosecution of the work, or
(e) Fails to resume work which has been discontinued within a reasonable time
after notice to do so, or
(f) Becomes insolvent or is declared bankrupt, or commits any act of
bankruptcy or insolvency, or

10 days, or
.
(h) Makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
(i) For any other cause whatsoever, fails to carryon the work in an acceptable
manner.
Should the Owner consider the Contractor in default of the contract for any reason
hereinbefore, he shall immediately give written notice to the Contractor and the
Contractor's surety as to the reasons for considering the Contractor in default and the
Owner's intentions to terminate the contract.
If the Contractor or surety, within a period of 10 days after such notice, does not
proceed in accordance therewith, then the Owner will, upon consideration of the facts
of such delay, neglect, or default and the Contractor's failure to comply with such
notice, have full power and authority without violating the contract, to take
prosecution of the work out of the hands of the Contractor. The Owner may
appropriate or use any or all materials and equipment that have been mobilized for use
in the work and are acceptable and may enter into an agreement for the completion of
said contract according to the terms and provisions thereof, or use such other methods
as in the opinion of the Owner will be required for the completion of said contract in
an acceptable manner.
OP - 43
All costs and charges incurred by the Owner, together with the cost of completing the
work under contract, will be ded~cted from any monies due or which may become due
to the Contractor. If such expense exceeds the sum which would have been payable
under the contract, then the Contractor and the surety shall be liable and shall pay to
the Owner the amount of such excess.
80-10 TERMINATION FOR NATIONAL EMERGENCIES. The Owner shall terminate
the contract or portion thereof by written notice when the Contractor is prevented
from proceeding with the construction contract as a direct result of an Executive
Order of the President with respect to the prosecution of war or in the interest of
na tional defense.
When the contract, or any portion thereof, is terminated before completion of all
items of work in the contract, payment will be made for the actual number of units or
items of work completed at the contract price or as mutually agreed for items of work
partially completed or not started. No claims or loss of anticipated profits shall be
considered.
Reimbursement for organization of the work, and other overhead expenses (when not
otherwise included in the contract), and moving equipment and material to and from
the job will be considered, the intent being that an equitable settlement will be made
with the Contractor.
Acceptable materials, obtained or ordered by the Contractor for the work and that are
not incorporated in the work shall, at the option of the Contractor, be purchased from
the Contractor at actual cost as shown by receipted bills and actual cost records at
such points of delivery as may be designated by the Owne~.
Termination of the contract or a portion thereof shall neither relieve the Contractor
of his responsibilities for the completed work nor shall it relieve his surety of its
obligation for and concerning any j!;lSt claim arising out of the work performed.
OP - 44
SECTION 90
MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
90-01 MEASUREMENT OF QUANTmES. All work completed under the contract will
be measured by the Engineer, or his authorized representatives, using United States
Customary Units of Measurement.
The method of measurement and computations to be used in determination of
quantities of material furnished and of work performed under the contract will be
those methods generally recognized as conforming to good engineering practice.
Unless otherwise specified, longitudinal measurements for area computations will be
made horizontally, and no deductions will be made for individual fixtures (or leave-
outs) having an area of 9 square feet or less. Unless otherwise specified, transverse
measurements for area computations will be the neat dimensions. shown on the plans or
ordered in writing by the Engineer.
Structures will be measured according to neat lines shown on the plans or as altered to
fit field conditions.
Unless otherwise specified, all contract items which are measured by the linear foot
such as electrical ducts, conduits, pipe culverts, underdrains, and similar items shall be
measured parallel to the base or foundation upon which such items are placed.
In computing volumes of excavation the average end area method or other acceptable
methods will be used.
The thickness of plates and galvanized sheet used in the manufacture of corrugated
metal pipe, metal plate and pip~ culverts and arches, and metal cribbing will be
specified and measured in decimal fraction of inches.
The term "ton" will mean the short ton consisting of 2,000 pounds avoirdupois. All
materials which are measured or proportioned by weights shall be weighed on
accurate, approved scales by competent, qualified personnel at locations designated by
the Engineer. If material is shipped by rail, the car weight may be accepted provided
that only the actual weight of material be paid for. However, car weights will not be
acceptable for material to be passed through mixing plants. Trucks used to haul
material being paid for by weight shall be weighted empty daily at such times as the
Owner directs, and each truck shall bear a plainly legible identification mark.
Material to be measured by volume in the hauling vehicle shall be measured therein at
the point of delivery. Vehicles for this purpose may be of any size or type acceptable
to the Owner, provided that the body is of such shape that the actual contents may be
readily and accurately determined. All vehicles shall be loaded to at least their water
level capacity and all loads shall be leveled when vehicles arrive at the point of
delivery.
When requested by the Contractor and reviewed by the Engineer in writing, material
specified to be measured by the cubic yard may be wieghed and such weights will be
converted to cubic yards for payment purposes. Factors for conversation from weight
measurements to volume measurement will be determined by the Engineer and shall be
agreed to by the Contractor before such method of measurement of pay quantities is
used.
GP - 45
Net certified scale weights or weights based on certified volumes in the case of rail
shipments will be used as a basis of measurement, subject to correction when
bituminous material has been lost from the car or the distributor, wasted, or otherwise
not incorporated in the work.
Cement will be measured by the ton or hundredweight.
Timber will be measured by the thousand feet board measure (MFBM) actually
incorporated in the structure. Measurement will be based on nominal widths and
thicknesses and the extreme length of each piece.
The term "lump sum" when used as an item of payment will mean complete payment
for the work described in the contract.
When a complete structure or structural unit (in effect, "lump sum" work) is specified
as the unit of measurement, the unit will be construed to include all necessary fittings
and accessories.
Rental of equipment will be measured by time in hours of actual working time and
necessary traveling time of the equipment within the limits of the work. Special
equipment ordered by the Engineer in connection with force account work will be
measured as agreed in the change order or supplemental agreement authorizing such
force account work as provided in the subsection titled PAYMENT FOR EXTRA
FORCE ACCOUNT WORK of this section.
When standard manufactured items are specified such as fence, wire, plates, rolled
shapes, pipe conduits, etc., and these items are ident~fied by gauge, unit weight,
section dimensions, etc., such identification will be considered to be nominal weights
or dimensions. Unless more stringently controlled by tolerances in cited
specifications, manufacturing tolerances established by the industries involved will be
accepted.
Materials which are proportioned or measured and paid for by weight shall be weighed
on certified scales.
Scales shall be accurate within one-half percent to the correct weight throughout the
range of use. The Contractor shall have the scales checked under the observation of
the inspector before beginning work and at such other times as requested. The
intervals shall be uniform in spacing throughout the graduated or marked length of the
beam or dial and shall not exceed one-tenth of one percent of the nominal rated
capacity of the scale, but not less than one pound. The use of spring balances will not
be permitted.
Beams, dials, platforms, and other scale equipment shall be so arranged tha~ the
operator and inspector can safely and conveniently view them.
Scale installation shall have available, ten standard fifty-poWld weights for testing the
equipment or suitable weights and devices or other approved equipment.
Scales must be tested for accuracy and serviced before use at a new site. Platform
scales shall be installed and maintained with the platform level and rigid bulkheads at
each end.
OP - 46
Scales "outweighing" (indicating more than correct weight) will not be permitted to
operate and all materials received subsequent to the last previous correct weighing-
accuracy test will be reduced by the percentage of error in excess of one-half of one
percent.
In the event inspection reveals the scales have been "underweighing" (indicating less
than correct weight) they shall be adjusted and no additional payment to the
Contractor will be allowed for materials previously weighed and recorded.
All costs in connection with furnishing, installing, certifying, testing, and maintaining
scales; for furnishing check weights and scale house; and for all other items specified
in this subsection, for the weighing of materials for proportioning or payment, shall be
included in the unit contract prices for the various items of the project.
When the estimated quantities for a specific portion of the work are designed as the
pay quantities in the contract, they shall be the final quantities for which payment for
such specific portion of the work will be made, unless the dimensions of said portions
of the work shown on the plans are revised by the Engineer. If revised dimensions
result in an increase or decrease in the quantities of such work, the final quantities for
payment will be revised in the amount represented by the authorized changes in the
dimensions.
90-02 SCOPE OF PAYMENT. The Contractor shall receive and accept compensation
provided for in the contract as full payment for furnishing all materials, for
performing all work under the contract in a complete and acceptable manner, and for
all risk, loss, damage, or expense of whatever character arising out. of the nature of
the work or the prosecution thereof, subject to the provisions of the subsection titled
NO WAIVER OF LEGAL RIGHTS of Section 70.
When the "basis of payment" subsection of a technical specification requires that the
contract price (bid price) include compensation for certain work or material essential
to the item, this same work or material will not also be measured for payment under
any other contract item which may appear elsewhere in the contract, plans, or
specifica tions.

'Nill be allowed on site. The manner and location of disposal of materials shall be
subject to the review of the Engineer and shall not create an unsightly or objectionable
view. The contractor is required to locate a disposal area outside the airport property
limits at his own expense, and shall obtain and file with the Engineer, permission in
writing from the property owner for the use of private property for this purpose.
As far as practicable, waste concrete and masonry shall be placed on slopes of
embankments or channels. When embankments are constructed of such material, this
material shall be placed in accordance with requirements for formations of
embankments. Any broken concrete or masonry which cannot be used in construction,
and all other materials not considered suitable for use elsewhere, shall be disposed of
by the contractor. In no case shall any discarded materials be left in windrows or piles
adjacent to or within the airport limits.
P-151-1
The removal or relocation of existing structures, fuel tanks and utilities required to

Engineer.
P-151-2
Utility Services: Contractor shall notify utility companies or local authorities
furnishing electrical power, gas, watch, telephone, CATV, or sewer service to relocate
or remove any equipment owned by them which reside within or pass through the
proposed construction site as depicted on the plans.
151-2.3 JOB CONDITIONS
Sequence of Construction: Demolition, removal and relocation work shall be
coordinated with th'e Owner, the FAA and an agreed upon sequence of construction to
minimize down time at the site shall be prepared.
151-2.4 DISPOSITION OF DEMOLISHED MATERIALS
Salvaged materials designated as property of the Owner shall be stored in areas
designated by the Owner. The Contractor shall promptly remove all other materials
from the site.
Material to be salvaged shall be removed with the minimum amount of damage and
stored on the site as directed by the Owner. Material stored on the ground shall be
placed on blocks, and all stored material shall be stacked and placed in an orderly
manner. Salvaged equipment and materials which can be damaged by weather shall be
stored in a weathertight building or area on-site until removed by the Contractor. Any
salvaged items that are determined to be of no value to the Owner after removal and
Owner's inspection shall be removed from the site by the Contractor.
Yard Piping and Valves: All yard piping and valves which are in conflict with proposed
work and are not to remain in service shall be removed. The valves shall be salvaged
for the Owner and the removed piping fittings shall be the property of the Contractor.
All abandoned yard piping not in conflict with the proposed work may either be
removed from the site by the Contractor at no extra cost to the Owner or ends shall
be capped with suitable material and backfilled.
151-2.5 CLEAN-UP
Site shall be left in a clean condition satisfactory to the Engineer, free from
demolished materials, rubbish or debris. Site shall be graded to meet adjacent
contours and provide flow for surface drainage.
The Contractor shall restore items intended to remain that have been damaged by
demolition work.
All interrupted utility services shall be returned to their pre-existing state and
disconnect temporary services, unless other\vise specified.
151-2.6 REMOVAL OF UNDERGROUND FUEL TANKS
Drain and flush the piping into the tank.
P-151 - 3
Remove all flammable liquid from the tank which can be pumped out. It may be
necessary to use a hand pump to remove the bottom few inches of product.
Dig down to the top of the tank.
Remove the fill (drop) tube. Disconnect the fill, gauge, product, and vent lines. Cap
or plug open ends of lines which are not to be used further.
Temporarily plug all tank openings, complete the excavation and remove the tank,
placing it in a secure location. Block the tank to prevent movement. Before
undertaking degassing measures, it is normally necessary to remove the tank from the
ground since product which may have previously leaked into the ground could re-enter
the tank. Extreme caution should be used during this procedure.
Remove flammable vapors. The tank should be conditioned by one of the methods
described below, or as required by local codes, to ensure that no flammable vapors
remain.
If water is available and there is a suitable means for disposal, the tank may be filled
\vith water to expel vapors. While the tanl< is being filled with water, flammable
vapors will flow out of the tank and may surround the area. Purged product may flow
out of the tank if it overflows. Hence, observe all normal safety and ~ollution
precautions regarding flammable liquids and vapors. When the tank is to be removed
from the premises, the contaminated water should be removed and disposed of in
accordance with local regulations.
If the method described above is not practicable, the vapors in the tank may be Inade
inert by adding solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) in the amount of 1.5 pounds per 100
gallons of tank capacity. The dry ice should be crushed and distributed evenly over the
greatest possible area to secure rapid evaporation. Avoid skin contact with dry ice
because it may produce burns. As the dry ice vaporizes, flam mable vapors v"ill flo",,,
out of the tank and may surround the area. Hence, observe all normal safety
precautions regarding flammable vapors. Make sure that all of the dry ice has
vaporized.
An alternate method is to ventilate the tank with air, using a small gas exhauster
operated with compressed air (from the service station or from a portable cOlTIi?ressor)
or by other suitable means. The flow of air in through an opening near one end of the
tank and the discharge of the vapor-air mixture out of an opening near the opposite
end will quickly remove the vapor. The vapor concentration in the tanl< can be
checked with a combustible gas indicator to determine when the tanl< is gas-free.
While the tank is being ventilated, flalnmable vapor may flow into the surrounding
atmosphere. Ignition sources should be eliminated from the immediate vicinity.
After the tank has been freed of vapors and before the tank is moved from the site,
plug or cap all holes. Use screwed (boiler) plugs to plug any corrosion leak holes. One
plug should have a 1/8-inch vent hole to prevent the tank from being subjected to an
excessive i?ressure differential caused by extreme temperature changes.
P-151-4
1'inally, the tank should be secured on a truck for transportation to the disposal site.
The tank should be secured so that the lIB-inch vent hole is located at the uppermost
poin t on the tank.
If the tank remains at the site overnight, or longer, additional vapor may be released
from liquid held in the scale or sediment in the tank. Consequently, tanks should be
removed from the premises as promptly as possible after these procedures have been
completed.
Prior to backfilling, surrounding soil shall be inspected by the respective authority and
trea ted as necessary.
151.2.7 DISCONNECT, REMOVE AND STORE FIBERGLASS STORAGE TANK FOR
CFR USAGE
a. Contractor shall remove fiberglass storage tank including all hold down straps
from concrete base.
b. Contractor shall store fiberglass storage tank and all salvaged hold down straps
near its ultimate location and away from apron construction area. The tank shall
be secured properly to withstand winds, aircraft propellar wash and jet blast.
Method of Measurement
151-3.1
The quantities of clearing and grubbing, demolition and removal of concrete slabs and
asphaltic pavement, as shown by the limits in the plans or as ordered by the Engineer

EXCAVATION AND EMB~~
Construction Methods
152-2.1 GENERAL. The rough excavation shall be carried to the necessary
depth to obtain the specified depth of subgrade densification shown in the
plans. Likewise, on embankments, the depth of subgrade densification shall be
as shown in the plans. Should the contractor, through negligence or other
fault, excavate below the designated lines, he shall replace the excavation
with acceptable materials and in an acceptable manner and condition as
reviewed by the engineer, at his own expense. The excavation, moving,
placing, disposition of all material, and the suitability of material to be
placed in embankments shall all be subject to review by the engineer. All
material determined unsuitable shall be disposed of in authorized waste
areas. Topsoil shall not be used in fil.ls or in subgrades but shall be
stockpiled for later reuse as appropriate.
The contractor shall inform and satisfy himself as to the character, quantity,
and distribution of all material to be excavated. No payment will be made for
any excavated material which is used for purposes other than those
d~signated. All spoil areas shall be leveled to a uniform line and section
and shall present a neat appearance before project acceptance. The surface
elevation of spoil areas shall not extend above the surface elevation of
adjacent or contiguous usable areas of the airport.
Those areas outside of the pavement areas in which the top layer of soil
material becomes compacted, due to hauling or to any other activity of the
contractor, shall be scarified and disced to a depth of 4 inches to loosen
and pulverize the soil.
If it is necessary to interrupt existing surface drainage, sewers or
underdrainage, conduits, utilities, or similar underground structures, or
parts thereof, the contractor shall be responsible for and shall take all
necessary precautions to protect and preserve or provide temporary services.
When such facilities are encountered, the contractor shall notify the
engineer, who shall arrange for their removal, if necessary. The contractor
shall, at his own' expense, satisfactorily repair all damage to such facilities
or structures which may result from any of his operations during the period of
the contract.
152-2.2 EXCAVATION. Excavation shall be performed as indicated in the
contract plans to the lines, grades, and elevation shown, and shall be made so
that the requirements for formation 'of embankments can be followed. No
excavation or stripping shall be started until the contractor's surveyor has
taken cross-sectional elevations and measurements of the existing ground
surface, has staked out the proposed work, and has furnished all certified
survey data to the engineer for review. All material encountered within the
limits indicated shall be removed and disposed of. During the process of
excavation, the grade shall be maintained so that it will be well drained at

satisfactory materials placed in successive horizontal layers of not more than
8 inches in loose depth for the full width of the cross section.
The grading operations shall be conducted, and the various soil strata shall
be placed, to produce a soil structure as shown on the typical cross section
or as directed. All materials entering the embankment shall be reasonably
free of organic matter such as leaves, grass, roots, and other objectionable
material. Soil, granular material, shale, and any other material permitted
for use in embankment shall be spread in successive layers as specified.
Operations on earthwork shall be suspended at any time when satisfactory
results cannot be .obtained because of rain, or other
unsatisfactory conditions of the field. The contractor shall drag, blade, or
slope the embankment to provide proper surface drainage.
The material in the layers shall be of the proper moisture content before
rolling to obtain the prescribed compaction. Wetting or drying of the
material and manipulation when necessary to secure a uniform moisture content
throughout the layer shall be required. Should the material be too wet to
permit proper compaction or rolling, all work on all portions of the
embankment thus affected shall be delayed until the material has dried to the
required moisture content. Sprinkling shall be done with approved equipment
that will sufficiently distribute the water. Sufficient equipment to furnish
the required water shall be available at all times. Samples of all embankment
materials for testing, both before and after placement and compaction, will be
taken at frequent intervals. From these tests, corrections, adjustments, and
modifications of methods, materials, and moisture content will be made to
construct the embankment.
Rolling operations shall be continued until the embankment is compacted to not
less than 95%, for noncohesive soils; and 90% for cohesive soils of the
wa::{~um density, at optimum moisture, as determined by. the FAA compaction
control tests T-611. Under all areas to be paved, the embankment shall be
compacted to the depths and to the densities at optimum moisture as shown on
the plans or as specified in the specifications, or, when not otherwise shown
or specified9 to 'a minimum dept~ of 9 inches and to a density of not less than
95%, for cohesive soils, and 100% for noncohesive soils, for the maximum
density at optimum moisture as determined by the compaction control tests
specified in FAA T-611. On all areas outside of the pavement areas, no
compaction will be required on the top 4 inches. Any areas inaccessible to a
roller shall be consolidated and compacted by mechanical tapers.
During construction of the embankment, the contractor shall route his
equipment at all times, both when loaded and when empty, over the layers as
they are placed and shall distribute the travel evenly over the entire width
of the embankment. The equipment shall be operated in such a manner that
hardpan, cemented gravel, clay, or other chunky soil material will be broken
up into small particles and become incorporated with the other material in the

The contractor shall be responsible for the stability of all embankments made
under the contract and shall replace any portion which, in the opinion of the
engineer, has become displaced due to carelessness or negligence on the part
of the contractor.
There will be no separate measurement or payment for compacted embankment, and
all costs incidental to placing in layers, compacting, discing, watering,
mixing, sloping, and other necessary operations of the embankments will be
included in the contract price for excavation, borrow, or other items.
When stockpiling of excavated material and later rehandling of such material
is required in order to produce "the specified subgrade structure, the material
shall be paid for at the contract unit price per square yard for "Unclassified
Excavation."
152-2.8 EQUIPMENT. The contractor may use any type of earth-moving,
compaction, and watering equipment he may desire or has at his disposal,
provided the equipment is in a satisfactory condition and is of such capacity
that the construction schedule can be maintained as planned by the contractor
and as reviewed by the engineer in accordance with the total calendar days or
working days bid for the construction. The contractor shall furnish, operate,
and maintain such equipment as is necessary to control uniform density,
layers, section, and smoothness of grade.
152-2.9 PREPARATION AND PROTECTION OF THE TOP OF THE SUBGRADE. On areas to
be paved, the specified depth in cut areas and the top of embankment shall be
compacted to the density specified. When completed, the surface shall be true
to the lines, grades, and cross section shown on the plans. After all drains,
structures, ducts, and other underground appurtenances along the edges or

depth specified at not less than 95% density for cohesive soils and 100% for
noncohesive soils, as determined by the compaction control tests specified in
FAA T-611. Any irregularities or depressions that develop under rolling shall
be corrected by loosening the material at these places and adding, removing,
or replacing material until the surface is smooth and uniform. Any portion of
the area which is not accessible to a roller shall be compacted to the
required density by approved mechanical tampers. If necessary, the material
shall be sprinkled with water during rolling or tamping.
All soft and yielding material and material which will not 'compact readily
when rolled or t~ped shall be removed if required by the engineer and
replaced with suitable material. After grading operations are complete, all
loose stones larger than 2 inches in their greatest dimension shall be removed
from the surface of all proposed graded paving areas and disposed of off-site
unless directed otherWise by the engineer,
At all times, the top of the subgrade shall be kept in such condition that it
will drain readily and effectively. In handling materials, tools, and
equipment, the contractor shall protect the subgrade from damage by laying
planks when directed and shall take other precautions as needed. In no case
will vehicles be allowed to travel in a single tract. If ruts are formed, the
subgrade shall be reshaped and rolled. Storage or stockpiling of materials on
the top of the subgrade will not be permitted. Until the subgradehas been
checked and approved, no subbase, base, surface course, or pavement shall be

SUEBASE COURSE
The portion of the material passing the No. 40 sieve shall have a liquid limit
of not more than 25 and a plasticity index of not more than 6 when tested in
accordance with AASHO T 89 and T 90.
Construction Methods
154-3.1 GENERAL. The subbase course shall be placed where designated on the
plans or as directed by the engineer. The material shall be shaped and
thoroughly compacted within the tolerances specified.
Granular subbase which, due to grain sizes or shapes, are not sufficiently
stable to support without movement the construction equipment, shall be
mechanically stabilized to the depth necessary to provide such stability as
directed by the engineer. The mechanical stabilization shall principally
include the addition of a fine-grained medium to bind the particles of the
subbase material sufficiently to furnish a bearing strength, so that the
course will not deform under the traffic of the construction equipment. The
addition of the binding medium to the subbase material shall not increase the
soil constants of that material above the limits specified.
154-3.2 OPERATION IN PITS. All work involved in clearing and stripping pits
and handling unsuitable material encountered shall be performed by the
contractor at his own expense. The subbase material shall be obtained from
pits or sources that have been approved. The material in the pits shall be
excavated and handled in such manner that a uniform and satisfactory product
can be secured.
154-3.3 EQUIPMENT. All equipment necessary for the proper construction of
this work shall be on the proje~t, shall be in first-class working condition,
and shall have been approved by the engineer before construction is permitted
to seart.
Provision shall be made by the cont~actor for furnishing water at the site of
the work using equipment of ample capacity and design to assure uniform
application.
. TIle processing equipment shall be designed ~ constructed ~ and operated and
shall have sufficient capacicy to thoroughly mix all materials and water in
the proportions required to produce a subbase course of the gradation and
consistency required.
P-154-2
ITEM P-154
SUBBASE COtJRSE
154-3.4 PREPARING t~ERLYING COURSE. Before any subbase material is placed,
the underlying course shall be prepared and conditioned as specified. The
course shall be checked and accepted by the engineer before placing and
spreading operations are started.
Grade control between the edges of the pavement shall be by means of grade
stakes, steel pins, or forms placed in lanes parallel to the centerline of the
pavement and at intervals which will permit string lines or check boards to be
placed between the stakes, pins, or forms.
To protect the subgrade and to insure proper drainage, the spreading of the
subbase shall begin along the centerline of the pavement on a crowned section
or on the high side of pavements with a one-way slope.
154-3.5 MATERIALS ACCEPTABLE IN EXISTING CONDITION. When the entire subbase
material is secured in a uniform and satisfactory condition and contains
approximately the required moisture, such approved material may be moved
directly to the spreading equipment for placing. The material may be obtained
from gravel pits, stockpiles, or may be produced from a crushing and screening
plant with the proper blending. The materials from these sources shall meet
the requirements for gradation, quality, aud consistency. It is the intent of
this section of the specifications to secure materials that will not require
further mixing. The moisture content of the material shall be approximately
that required to obtain maximum density. Any minor deficiency or excess of
moisture may be corrected by surface sprinkling or by aeration. In such
instances, some mixing or manipulation may be required, immediately preceding
the rolling, to obtain the required moisture content. The final operation
shall be blading or dragging, if necessary, to obtain a ~ooth uniform surface
true to line and grade.
154-3.6 PLANT MIXING. When materials from several sources are to be blended
and mixed, the subbase material shall be processed in a ~entral or travel
mixing plant. The subbase material, together with any blended material, shall
be thoroughly mixed with the required amount of water. After the mixing is
com~lete, the material shall be transported to and spread on the underlying
course without undue loss of the moisture content.
154-3. 7 MIXED IN PLACE. When materials from different sources are to be
proportioned and mixed or blended in place, the relative proportions of the
components of the mixture shall be as designated by the engineer.
The subbase material shall be deposited and spread evenly to a unifonn
thickness and width. Then the binder, filler or other material shall be
deposited and spread evenly over the first layer. There shall be as many
layers of materials added as the engineer may direct to obtain the required
subbase mixture.
P-154-3
ITEM P-154
SUBBASE COtJRSE
When the required amount of materials have been placed J they shall be
thoroughly mixed and blended by means of approved graders, discs, harrows,
rotary tillers, supplemented by other suitable equipment if necessary. The
mixing shall continue until the mixture is uniform throughout. Areas of
segregated material shall be corrected by the addition of binder or filler
material and by thorough remixing. Water in the amount and as directed by the
engineer shall be uniformly applied prior to and during the mL~ing operations,
if necessary, to maintain the material at its required moisture content. When
the mixing and blending has been completed, the material shall be spread in a
uniform layer which, when compacted, will meet the requirements of thickness
and typical cross section.
154-3.8 GENERAL METHODS FOR PLACING. The subbase course shall be constructed
in layers. Any layer shall be not less than 3 inches nor more than 8 inches
of compacted thickness. The material, as spread, shall be of uniform
gradation with no pockets of fine or coarse materials. The subbase, unless
otherwise permitted by the engineer, shall not be spread more than 2,000
square yards in advance of the rolling. Any necessary sprinkling shall be
kept ~thin this limit. No material shall be placed on a soft or -muddy,
course..
When more than one layer is required~ the construction procedure described
herein shall apply similarly to each layer.
Du~1ng the placing and spreading, sufficient caution shall be exercised to
prevent the incorporation of subgrade, shoulder, or foreign material in the
subbase course mixture.
154-3.9 FINISHING AND COMPACTING. After spreading or mixing, the subbase
material shall be thoroughly compacted by rolling and sprinkling, when
necessary. Sufficient rollers shall be furnished to ade~uately handle the
rate of placing and spreading of the subbase course..
Rolling shall progress gradually- from the sides to the center of ~~e lane
under construction, or from one side toward previvusly placed material, by
lapping uniformly each preceding track by at least 12 inches. The rolling
shall continue uutil the material is thoroughly set and s~able, and the
subbase material has been compacted to not less than 100% of max~ density
at opt~ moisture as determined by the campaction control tests specified in
FAA T-61!. Blading and rolling shall be done alternately, as required or
directed, to obtain a smooth, even, and uniformly co~acted subbase.
The course shall not be rolled when the underlying course is soft or yielding
or when the rolling causes undulation in the subbase. When the rolling
develops irregularities that exceed ~ inch when tested with a 16-foot
straightedge, the irregular surface shall be loosened and then refilled with
the same kind of material as that used in constructing the course and again
rolled as required above.
P-154-4
ITEM P-154
SUBBASE COURSE
Along places inaccessible to rollers, the subbase material shall be tamped
thoroughly with mechanical or hand tampers.
Sprinkling during rolling, if necessary, shall be in the amount and by
equipment as necessary to achieve the required compaction. Water shall not be
added in such a manner or quantity that free water will reach the underlying
layer and cause it to become soft.
154-3.10 SURFACE TEST. After the course is completely compacted, the surface
shall be tested for smoothness and accuracy of grade and crown; any portion
found to lack the required smoothness or to fail in accuracy of grade or crown
shall be scarified, reshaped, recompacted, and otherwise manipulated as the
engineer may direct until the required smoothness and accuracy are obtained.
The finished surface shall not vary more than ! inch when tested with a
16-foot straightedge applied parallel with, and at right angles to, the
centerline.
154-3.11 THICKNESS. The thickness of the completed subbase course shall be
determined by depth tests or cores taken at intervals so each test shall
represent no more than 500 square yards. When the deficiency in thickness is
more than 2 inch, the contractor shall correct: such areas by scarifying J
adding satisfactory mixture, rolling, sprinkling, reshaping, and finishing in
accordance with these specifications. The contractor shall replace at his
expense the subbase material where borings are taken for test purposes.
154-3.12 PROTECTION. Work on subbase course shall not be conducted
when the subgrade is wet.
154-3 .13 MAI~ANCE. Following the final shaping of the material, the
subbase shall be maintained th~oughout its entire length by the use of
standard motor graders and rollers until, in the judgement of the engineer,
the subbase meets all requirements and is acceptable for the construction of
the next course.
Method of Measurement
154-4.1 The yardage of subbase course to be paid for shall be the number of
· squar~yards of subbase course material placed, compacted, and accepted in the
completed course. The quantity of subbase course material shall be measured

approved by the engineer before construction is pexm:L"tted to start.
211-,. "3 PREPARING UNDERLYING COURSE. Be:rore a:ny rock. base course material
is placed,. the underlying course shall be prepared and conditioned as
specified. The course shall be checked and accepted by the engineer before
placing and sprearl'ing operauons are s1:arted.. .ArJ:y ruts or SO~, yielding
places caused by improper d.rainage conditions, hau.li.I1g, or a:ny other cause,
shall be corrected and rolled to the required compaction. before the base
course is placed thereon.
Grade control between the edges of the pavement shall be accomplished by
grade stakes, steel pins ~ or forms placed in lanes paralle~ to the centerl~e
of the pavement and at intervals suffi.ciently- close "tbat s~-ng lines or check
boa...T'<is rpay be placed between the s-takes, pins, or fOD:DS.
To protect the underlT...ng course and to insure proper d:ra.i:lage, the spreac.J.Dg
of the lime rock shall beg:i..n along the centerline of the pavemeIrt on a
crowned section or on the high side o~ the pavemeIIt wi"tb.. a one-way slope.

I~1 P-211 LIME ROCK BASE COURSE
211-3.4 PLACING AND SPREADmG. All base course material shall be placed
on the prepared underlying course and compacted in layers to the thickness
shown on the plans. The deposi ting and spreading of the material on the
prepared course or on a completed layer shall commence where designated and
shall progress without breaks. The material shall be deposited::ld spread
in lanes in a uniform layer and without segregation of size to ~ "en loose
dept..." that, when compacted, the layer shall have the required tniccless.
When more than one layer is required, the construction procedure described
herein shall apply similarly to each layer, excepting the scarifying and
rerolling of the surface which shall apply to only the top layer.
The rock shall be transported to locations ~ere it is to be used over rock
previously placed and dumped at the end of the lJreceding spread. It shall
then be spread uniformly with shovels, forks, or approved mechanical
spreaders especially constructed for this purpose. In no case shall rock
be dumped directly onto the lmderlying course. Transporting over the
underlying course will not be permitted, except as directed, in which case
it must be protected by planking if rutting occurs. During the dumping
and spreading operations, the rock shall be brought to the proper moisture
content to obtain maximum density. If water is added, it shall be uniformly
mixed to the full depth cf the course by discing. All segregated areas of
fine or coarse rock shall be removed and replaced with well-graded rock,
and approved by the engineer. Lime rock shall not be spread when the sub-
grade is in an 1.msui table condition. .
The lime rock base course shall be constructed in a layer not less than 4
inches nor more than 6 inches of compacted thickness. The base course shall
be constructed in lanes or strips parallel wi th the centerline of the paved
area.
Dur~~g the placing operation, sufficient caution shall be exercised to pre-
vent the incorporation of sub grade , subbase, or shoulq.er material in the
lime rock.
211-3.5 ROLLING. Immediately following final spreading, the material shall
be compacted to full width with approved compaction equipment. . Rcll~~g
shall progress gradually from the sides to the center of the lane under con-
struction, or from one side toward previously placed material, and shall con-
tinue until the surface has been rolled and compacted. Rolling shall
continue until the base material has been compacted to not less than 100%
density as determined by the compaction control tests specified in FAA T-611.
Prior to and during compaction, water in the amounts required shall be
uniformly applied to maintain satisfactory moisture content to obtain
maximum density. Sufficient rollers of the designated types shall be fur-
P-211-3
ITEM P-211 LIME ROCK BASE COURSE
nished to adequately handle the compaction of the material that has been
placed and spread. Blading and rolling shall be done alternately as required
or directed to obtain a smooth, even surface and until the entire depth of
base is compacted into a dense, unyielding mass. Rerolling of previous
day's spread shall be done as directed. When the shoulder backfill material
has been placed, the shoulder shall be thoroughly rolled and compacted.
Along curbs, headers, and all areas inaccessible to the roller, the base
course material shall be tamped thoroughly with mechanical or hand tampers.
211-3.6 FINISHnJG BASE COURSE. After the watering and rolling of the base
course, the entire surface shall be scarified to a depth of at least 3 inches
and shaped to the exact crown and cross section with a blade grader. The
scarified material shall be rewatered and thoroughly rolled. Rolling shall
continue until the base is bonded and compacted into a dense, unyielding
mass, true to grade and cross section. The scarifying and rolling of the
surface of the base shall follow the initial rolling of the lime rock by not
more than 4 days. When the lime rock base is constructed in two layers, the
scarifying of the surface shall be to a depth of 2 inches.
If, in the opinion of the engineer, the surface of the base is glazed or
cemented to the extent that the prime coat could not penetrate properly,
and after determining that the condition of the base meets all requirements,
he will direct that the surface of the base be hard-planed wi th a blade
grader and broomed immediately prior to the application of the prime coat.
This hard-planing shall be done in such a manner that only the glazed or
cemented surface is removed, leaving a granular or poro~ condition that
will allow free penetration of the prime material. The material planed
from the base shall be removed from the base area.
If at any time the underlying material becomes churned up .and mixed wi th ~1.e
base course material, the contractor shall, without additional compensation,
d~g out and remove the mixtl.lre, Nreshape and compact the underlying course,
replace the materials removed with clean rock which shall be watered ~~d
rolled until satisfactorily compacted.
Whe~e craCks, checks, or failures appear in the base, either before or
after pr~~g and before the surface course is laid, the contractor shall
remove such cracks, checks, or failures by rescarifying, reshaping, wateri.."1g,
rolling, and adding lime roCk where necessary.
P-211-4
ITEM P-211 LIME ROCK BASE COURSE
211-;.7 SURFACE TEST. After the course has been completely compacted, the
surface shall be tested for smoothness and accuracy of grade and crown.
Any portion laCking the required smoothness or failing in accuracy of grade
or crown shall be scarified, reshaped, recompacted, and otherwise manipu-
lated as the engineer may direct until the required smoothness and accuracy
are obtained. The finished surface shall not vary more than 3/8 inch from
a 16-foot straightedge when applied to the surface parallel with, and at
right angles to, the centerline. In testing surface of the harder lime
rocks, measurement of clearances from the straightedge shall not .include
small holes caused by individual pieces being pulled out .by the grader.
211- '3.8 'mICKNESS. The thiclmess of the base course shall be determined by
depth tests or elevations taken at intervals in such a manner that each
test shall represent 300 square yards, or it shall be as otherwise directed
by the engineer.
The depth tests shall be made by test holes through the base at least 3 inches
in diameter. Where the base deficiency is more than 1/2 inch, the contrac-
tor shall correct such areas by scarifying and adding rock. The base shall
be scarified, rock added, and tapered a distance of 100 feet in each direc-
tion from the edge of the deficient area for each inch of rock added. The
affected area shall then be watered, bladed, rolled, and brought to a satis-
factory state of compaction, required thickne-ss, and cross section. The
thickness of the base in the affected area shall be remeasured by depth
tests or elevations. The operations of scarifying, adding rock, and reroll-
ing shall continue until the base thickness is within the 1/2-inch tolerance
of base thickness. The final base thickness of the reconditioned area shall
be used to determine the average job thickness.
The average job thickness shall be the average of the depth measurement as
above outlined and shall be within 1/4 incp. of the t.b;ickness shown on the
typical cross section. On individual depth measuremen'ts, thicknesses more
than 1/2 inch in excess of. :that shown on the plans shall be . considered as
specified thickness plus 1/2 inch in computing the average Job -thickness.
The contractor shall replace, a-t his expense, the lime rock removed from
test holes.
211-,-.9 PROTECTION. Work on the base course shall no-t be accomplished
when the subgrade is wet.

Hauling equipment may be routed over completed portions of the base course, provided
no damage results and provided that such equipment isrouted over the full width of the
base course to avoid rutting or uneven compaction. However, the engineer in charge
shall have full and specific authority to stop hauling over completed or partically
completed base course when, in his opinion, such hauling is causing damage. Any
damage resulting to the base course from routing equipment over the base course shall
be repaired by the contractor at his own expense.

the plant for checking adequacy of equipment; inspectlng operatlOn
of the plant: verlfying welgntS, proportions, and character of
materials; and checking the temperatures maintained in the
preparation of the mlxtures.
(4) Storage bins and surge bins. Paragraph 3.9 of ASTM
D 995 is deleted. Instead, the followlng appl ies. Use of surge
bins or storage blns for temporary storage of hot bltuminous mlxtures
wlll be permitted as follows:
(a) The bltumlnous mixture may be stored in surge
blns for a perlod of time not to exceed 3 hours,
(b) The bitumlnous mixture may be stored in
insulated storage bins for a period of time not to exceed 24 hours,
provided an inert gas atmosphere is maintained in the b1n during the
storage perlod.
The bins shall. be such that mix drawn from them meets the same
requlrements as mix loaded directly into trucks.
If the Engineer determines that there 15 an exceSSlve amount of heat
loss, segregatlon or oxidatlon of the mixture due co temporary
storage, no overnlght sto~age wlll be allowed.
401-4.3 HAULING EQUIPMENT. TrUCKS used for haullng bituminous
mlxtures shall have tlght, clean, and smooth metal beds. To prevent
the mlxture from adhering to them, the trUCK beds shall be llghtly
coated wlth a mlnlmum amount of paraff1n 011, lime solutlon, or other
approved mater ial. Each truck shall have a sui table cover to
protect the mlxture from adverse weather. When necessary, to ensure
that the mixture will be delivered to the site at the specifled
temperature, truck beds shall be insulated and covers snail be

401-4.5 ROLLERS. Rollers of tne vibratory, steel wheel, or
pneumatic-tlred type may be used. They shall be 1n good condltlon,
capable of operatIng at slow speeds to avoid dlsplacement of the
bltuminous mlxture. The number, type, and weight of rollers shall
be sufficient to compact the mIxture to the required density WhIle It
is stlll in a workable condltlon. The use of equlpment which causes
exceSSlve crushlng of tne aggregate wlll not be permltted.
401-4.6 PREPARATION OF BITUMINOUS MATERIAL. The bitumlnous ma-
terlal shall be heated 1n a manner that will avoid local overneatlng
and provide a continuous supply of the bltumlnous materlals to the
mlxer at a uniform temperatute. The temperature of tne oitumlnous
material dellvered to the mixer shall be sufficient to provlde a
sUltable viscoslty for adequate COatlng of the aggregate particles
but shall not exceed 325 degrees F (160 degrees C) .
401-4.7 PREPARATION OF MINERAL AGGREGATE. The aggregate for the
mlxture shall be drled and heated to the temperature deslgnated by
the job formula within the job tolerance specifled. The maximum
temperature and rate of heating shall be such that no permanent
damage occurs to the aggregates. Particular care shall be taken
P-401-11
that. aggregates hlgh in calcium or magnesium content are not damaged
by overheating- The temperatures shall not be lower than is

aggregate particles and to provide a mixture of satlsfactory
wOI:kabillty.
401-4.8 PREPARATION OF BITUMINOUS MIXTURE. The aggregates and
the bitumlnous mateIlal shall be welghed or metered and lntroduced
lnto the mixer in the amount speclf1ed by the job mix formula.
The combined materials shall be mixed until the aggregate obtalns a
unlfotm coating of bit.umen and is thtoughly disturbed throughout the
mlxture. Wet mixlng time shall be the shortest tlme that will
ptoduce a satisfactory mixture. It. shall be establlshed by t.he
Contractot, based on t.he procedure for determlning the percentage of
coated partlcles described 1n ASTM D 2489, and reviewed by the
Engineer for each individual plant aod for each type of aggregate
used. The minimum mixing time shall be 25 seconds. The m1xing time
will be set to achieve 95 percent of coated patticles. For
continuous mix-plants, t.he minimum mlxing time shall be detetmlned by
dividing the weight of its contents at operat1ng level by the welght
of the mlxtUte delivered per second by the mixer. The mOlsture
content of the mlX shall not exceed 1.0 percent.
401-4.9 TRANSPORTING, SPREADING, AND FINISHING. The mixture
shall be transported from the mlxing plant to the pOlot ~f use In
vehlcles confOtmlng to the requlrements of Sect.lon 401-4.3.
Deliveries shall be scheduled so that spreadlng and rolling of all
mi x ture prepared for one day I s run can be completed dur 1 ng day 11g h t ,
unless adequate attificial llghting is provided. Haullng over
freShly placed materlal snail not be permitted untll the material has
been compacted, as speclfled, and allowed to cQol to atmosph~rlc
temperature.
Immediately before placing the bituminous ffilxtUte, the una~rlYlng
course shall be cleated of all debris with power blowers, power
brooms, or hand brooms as directed.
The mix shall be placed at a temperature of not. less than 250 degrees
F (l07 degrees C) when asphalt cement is used, and not less than 150
degrees F (65 deg~ees C) when tar is used.
Upon ar~lval, the mixture shall be spread to the full width by the
bituminous paver. It shall be struck off in a uniform layer of such
depth that, when the work is completed, it snail have the requlred
thickness and conform to the grade and contour indicated. The speed
of the pav~~ shall be regulated to eliminate pulling and tearing of
the bltuminous mat. Unless otherwise directed, placement of the
mlxture shall begin along the centerline of a crowned section or on
P-401-12
the high side of areas with a one-way slope. The mixture shall be
placed in consecutive adjacent strips hav1ng a minimum width of 10
feet, except whe~e edge lanes require less width to complete the
area. The longitudinal joint in one laye~ shall offset that 10 the
layer immed i a tely below by a t least 1 foot (30 cm) , however, the j 0 i n t
in the top laye~ shall be at the cente~line of the pavement.
Transve~se joints in one laye~ shall be offset by at least 2 feet (60
cm) f~om t~ansve.rse joints in the p~evious layer. Transverse joints
1n adJacent lanes shall be offset a rnlnimum of 10 feet (3 m).
On areas whe~e irregularities or unavoidable obstacles make the use
of mechanical spreading and finishing equipment impractlcal, the
mixture may be spread, raked, and luted by hand tools.
410-4.10 COMPACTION OF MIXTURE. Af~er spreadlng, the mixture
shall be thoroughly and uniformly compacted by rOlling. The surface
shall be rolled when the mixture has attained sufficient stablllty so
that the rolling does not cause undue displacement, cracKlng or
shoving. The sequence of rolling operations and the type of rollers
used shall be at the discretion of the Contractor.
The speed of the roller shall, at all time$, be sufficiently slow to
avoid dlsplacement of the hot mixture. Any qlsplacement occurrlng
as a result of reversing the direction of the roller, or from any
other cause, shall be corrected at once.
Sufficient rollers shall be furniShed to handle the outp~t of the
plant. Rolling shall continue until all roller marks are
ellminated, the surface 1S of uniform texture and true to grade and
cross sectlon, and the required fleld denSIty 15 obtaIned.
To prevent adhesion of the mixture to the roller, the wheels shall be
kept properly mOlstened, but excessive water will not be permltted.
In areas not access1ble to the roller I the mixture shall be
thoroughly compacted with- hot hand tampers.
Any mixtures that becomes loose and broken, mixed with d1rt, or 1n any
way defective shall be removed and replaced WIth fresh hot mlxture
and immediately compacted to conform to the sUI:z:oundlng area.
This work shall be done at the Contractor's expense. Sk1n patch1ng
shall not be allowed.
401-4.11 JOINTS. The formation of all joints shall be made 1n such
a manner as to ensure a COntlnuous bond between old and new sectlons
of the course. All joints shall have the same texture, denS1ty, and
smoothness as other Sectlons of the course.
P-401-13
The roller shall not pass over the unprotected end of the freshly lald
mixture except when necessary to form a transverse joint. When
necessary to form a transverse joint, it shall be made by means of
placing a bulkhead or by taperlng the course, in which case the edge
shall be cut back to its full depth and width on a stralght line to
expose a vertlcal face. In both methods all contact surfaces shall
be given a tack. coat. of bituminous ma ter ial bef ore pi ac lng any fresh
mixture agalnst the jOln~.
Long 1 tud inal joints which are irregular, damaged, or otherwise
defective shall be cut back to expose a clean, sound surface for the
full depth of tne course. All contact surfaces shall be given a tack
coat of bltuminous material prlor to placlng any fresh mixture
agalnst the jOlnt.
P-401-14
401-4.12 ACCEPTANCE SAMPLING AND TESTING OF BITUMINOUS MIXTURE

3. CONSTRUCTION METHODS
3.1 General: The contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, and services
necessary for, and incidental to, the completion of all work as shown in the plans and
specified herein. All machinery and equipment owned or controlled by the contractor,
which he proposes to use on the work, shall be of sufficient size to meet the
requirements of the work, and shall be such as to produce satisfactory work; all work
shall be subject to the inspection and review of the engineer. The contractor shall
employ, at all times, a sufficient force of workmen of such experience and ability that
the work can be prosecuted in a satisfactory and workmanlike manner.
Concrete produced by a reputable supplier of ready-mix or transit-mix
concrete, designed for a minimum compressive strength of 3,000 psi at 28 days, may
be used subject to review by the engineer of the proposed design mix and other
required material tests and certifications.
3.2 Concrete Proportions: The concrete shall consist of a mixture of coarse
aggregate, fine aggregate, portland cement, and water. All aggregates and bulk
cement shall be measured by weight. In proportioning aggregates and mixing water,
compensation shall be made for the weight of moisture in the aggregates, and this
shall be determined periodically.

Crushed Stone 6 38 1220--1360 3200 2--5
Slag 6 38 1330--1470 2930 2--5
The proportions in the above table are based on the use of well-graded
aggregates. If it is impossible with the aggregates selected to prepare concrete of the
proper consistency without exceeding the maximum net water content specified, the
total weight of aggregate shall be reduced until concrete of the proper consistency is
obtained without exceeding the maximum net water content specified. However, the
contractor shall not be compensated for any additional cement which may be required
by such adjustment.
The weights specified in the above table were calculated for aggregates of the
following bulk specific gravities: Natural sand and gravel, 2.65; crushed stone, 2.70;
slag 2.30. For aggregates of specific gravities differing more than + 0.02 from those
given above, the weights given in the tables shall be corrected. The-quantities shown
for cement and water shall control, and the weights of aggregates shall be varied to
secure the proper yield based on absolute volumes. When a special mix requiring a
reduction in the amount of water is desired, the quantities of aggregate shall be
increased to maintain the specified yield.
Yield test, made in accordance with specification AASHO T 121, shall be made
by the engineer for the purpose of determining the cement content per cubic yard of
concrete. If at any time such cement content is found to be less than that specified
per cubic yard, the batch weights shall be reduced until the amount of cement per
cubic yard of concrete conforms to the requirements.
The net mixing water shall be adjusted for the moisture contained in the
aggregates, and for the moisture which they will absorb, in order to determine the
amount of water to be added at the mixer. The absorption of the fine and coarse
aggregates shall be determined by AASHO T 84 and T 85.
When an air-entraining agent or air-entraining portland cement is used, there
will be a bulking of the mortar of the concrete due to the amount of entrained air. If
necessary, the weight of the fine aggregate shall be reduced, as required to keep the
cement factor specified at the correct amount. The reduction in the fine aggregate
shall be determined by yield tests as specifiedo Under average conditions, the
reduction of the sand should be about 3% of the total weight of the fine and coarse
aggregate. The air content of the concrete shall be between 3 and 6% by volume.
P-610 - 4
The air content by volume shall be based on measurements made on concrete
immediately after discharge from the mixer in accordance with AASHO T 121 or
T 152.
3.3 Control Tests: The contractor shall make test cylinders or beams from the
concrete as mixed for the work as herein specified.
Concrete cylindrical test specimens shall be made in accordance with AASHO
T 23 and beam specimens shall be made in accordance with AASHO T 97. The
contractor shall cure and store the test specimens under such conditions as required to
maintain their integrity until testing. The engineer will make the actual tests on the
specimens at no expense to the contractor.
3.4 Proportioning and Measuring Devices: When package cement is used, the
quantity for each batch shall be equal to one or more whole sacks of cement. The
aggregates shall be measured separately by weight. If aggregates are delivered to the
mixer in batch trucks, the exact amount for each mixer charge shall be contained in
each batch compartment. Weighing boxes or hoppers shall be reviewed by the engineer
and shall provide means of regulating the flow of aggregates into the batch box so that
the required and exact weight of aggregates can be .readily obtained.
3.5 Consistency: The consistency of the concrete shall be checked by the slump
test specified in AASHO T 119.
3.6 Mixing: Concrete may be mixed at the construction site, at a central point, or
wholly or in part in truck mixers. Whichever mixing process is used, concrete of the
specified proportions and consistency shall be produced.
3.7 Mixing Conditions: The concrete shall be mixed only in quantities required for
immediate use. Concrete shall not be mixed while the air temperature is below 50oF.
Concrete shall be placed at a temperature not less than 600 nor more than lOOoF.
Retempering of concrete by adding water or any other material shall not be
permitted.
The delivery of concrete to the job shall be in such a manner that batches of
concrete will be deposited at uninterrupted intervals.
The contractor shall be held responsible for any defective work, resulting from
InjUry in any manner during placing and curing, and shall replace such work at his
expense.
3.8 Forms: Concrete shall not be placed until all the forms and reinforcements
have been inspected by the engineer. Forms shall be of suitable material and shall be
of the type, size, shape, quality, and strength to build the structure as designed on the
plans. The forms shall be true to line and grade and shall be mortar-tight and
sufficiently rigid to prevent displacement and sagging between supports. The
contractor shall bear responsibility for their adequacy. The surfaces of forms shall be
smooth and free from irregularities, dents, sags, and holes.
All internal ties shall be arranged so that, when the forms are removed, no
metal will show in the concrete surface or discolor the surface when exposed to
weathering. All forms shall be wetted with water or with a nonstaining mineral oil
P-610 - 5
which shall be applied shortly before the concrete is placed. Forms shall be
constructed so that they can be removed without injuring concrete or concrete
surface. The forms shall not be removed before the expiration of at least 30 hours
from vertical faces, walls, and similar structures; forms supported by false work under
slabs, beams, girders, arches, and similar construction shall not be removed until tests
indicate that at least 60% of the design strength of the concrete has developed.
3.9 Placing Reinforcement: All reinforcement shall be accurately placed, as shown
on the plans, and shall be firmly held in position during concreting. Bars shall be
fastened together at intersections. The reinforcement shall be supported by approved
metal chairs. Shop drawings, lists, and bending details shall be supplied by the
contractor.
3.10 Embedded Items: Before placing concrete, any items that are to be embedded
shall be firmly and securely fastened in place as indicated. All such items shall be
clean and free from coating, rust, scale, oil, or any foreign matter. The embedding of
wood shall be avoided. The concrete shall be spaded and consolidated around and
against embedded items.
3.11 Placing Concrete: All concrete shall be placed during daylight. The concrete
shall not be placed until the depth and character of foundation, the adequacy of forms
and falsework, and the placing of the steel reinforcing have been reviewed. Concrete
shall be placed as soon as practical after mixing and in no case later than 1 hour after
water has been added to the mix. The method and manner of placing shall be such to
avoid segregation and displacement of the reinforcement. Troughs, pipes, and chutes
shall be used as an aid in placing concrete when necessary. Dropping the concrete a
distance of more than 5 feet, or depositing a large quantity .at one point, will not be
permitted. Concrete shall be placed upon clean, damp surfaces, free from running
water, or upon properly consolidated soil.
The concrete shall be compacted with suitable mechanical vibrators operating
within the concrete. When necessary, vibrating shall be supplemented by hand spading
with suitable tools to assure proper and adequate compaction. Vibrators shall be
manipulated so as to work the concrete thoroughly around the reinforcement and
embedded fixtures and into corners and angles of the forms. The vibration at any joint
shall be of sufficient duration to accomplish compaction but shall not be prolonged to
the point where segregation occurs. Concrete deposited under water shall be carefully
placed in a compact mass in its final position by means of a tremie, a closed bottom
dump bucket, or other suitable method and shall not be disturbed after being
deposited.
3.12 Defective Work: Any defective work disclosed after the forms have been
removed shall be immediately removed and replaced. If any dimensions are deficient,
or if the surface of the concrete is bulged, uneven, or shows honeycomb, the entire
section shall be removed and replaced at the expense of the contractor.
3.13 Surface Finish: All exposed concrete surfaces shall be true, smooth, free from
open or rough spaces, depressions, or projections. The concrete in horizontal plane
surfaces shall be brought flush with the finished top surface at the proper elevation
and shall be struck-off with a straightedge and floated. Mortar finishing shall not be
permitted, nor shall dry cement or sand-cement mortar be spread over the concrete
during the finishing of horizontal plane surfaces.
P-610 - 6
The surface finish of exposed concrete shall be a rubbed finish. If forms can be
removed while the concrete is still green, the surface shall be pointed and wetted and
then rubbed with a wooden float until all irregularities are removed. If the concrete
has hardened before being rubbed, a carborundum stone shall be used to finish the
surface. When approved, the finishing can be done with a rubbing machine.
3.14 Curing and Protection: All concrete shall be properly cured and protected by
the contractor. The work shall be protected from the elements, flowing water, and
from defacement of any nature during the building operations. The concrete shall be
cured as soon as possible after placement by covering with the specified material.
Water-absorptive coverings shall be thoroughly saturated when placed and kept
saturated for a period of at least 3 days. All curing mats or blankets shall be
sufficiently weighted or tied down to keep the concrete surface covered and to
prevent the surfac.e from being exposed to currents of air. Where wooden forms are
used, they shall be kept wet at all times until removed to prevent the opening of joints
and drying out of the concrete. Traffic shall not be allowed on concrete surfaces for 7
days after the concrete has been placed.
3.15 Drains or Ducts: Drainage pipes, conduits, and ducts that are to be encased in
concrete shall be installed by the contractor before the concrete is placed. The pipe
shall be held rigidly so that it will not be displaced or moved during the placing of the
concrete.
3.16 Filling Joints: All joints which require filling shall be thoroughly cleaned, and
any excess mortar or concrete shall be cut out with proper tools. Joint filling shall not
be started until after final curing and shall be done only when the concrete is
completely dry. The cleaning and filling shall be carefully done with proper equipment
and in a manner to obtain a neat looking joint free from excess filler.
4. BASIS OF PAYMENT
4.1 The bid schedule does not contain an estimated quantity for structural portland
cement concrete or reinforcing steel. The performance of this work, including the
furnishing of all materials and for all preparation, delivering and installation of these
materials, and for all labor, equipment, tools, and incidentals necessary to complete

slurry; the third coat shall consist of a rubberized emulsion.
P-625-2
625-3.3 TEST SECTION. Prior to full production, the Contractor shall
prepare a quantity of mixture in the proportions shown in Table 2.
The amount of mixture shall be sufficient to place a test section
of approximately 50 square yards (45 square meters) at the
application rate shown in Table 2. The area to be tested will be
designated by the Engineer and will be located on the existing
pavement to be sealed.
The test section shall be used to verify the adequacy of the
mixture and to determine the exact application rate. The same
equipment and method of operations shall be used on the test
section as will be used on the remainder of the work.
If the test section should prove to be unsatisfactory, the
necessary adjustments to the application rate, placement
operations and equipment shall be made. Additional sections
shall be placed and evaluated, if required.
625- 4. CONSTRUCTION METHODS
625- 4.1 WEATHER LIMITATIONS. The sealcoat shall ~ot be applied when the
surface is wet or when the humidity or impending weather conditions
will not allow proper curing, nor. when the atmospheric or pavement
temperature is below SO F (10 C).
625-4.2 EQUIPMENT AND TOOLS. All methods employed in performing the work
and all equipment, tools and machinery used for handling materials
and executing any part of the work shall be subject to the review
of the Engineer before. the work is started.
(1) Distributors. Distributors used for the application of the
rubberized coal tar pitch emulsion shall be capable of
uniformly applying 0.15 to 0.55 gallons per square yard over
the required width of application. Distributors shall be
equipped with removable manhole covers, tachometers and
volume-measuring devices. .
P-625-3
(2) Mixing Equipment. The mixing machine shall have a
continuous flow mixing unit capable of accurately deliver-
ing a predetermined proportion of aggregate, water, emulsion
and rubber and of discharging the thoroughly mixed product
on a continuous basis. The mixing unit shall be capable of
thoroughly blending all ingredients together.
(3) Spreading Equipment. Attached to the mixing machine shall
be a mechanical-type squeegee distributor box, equipped with
flexible material in contact with the surface to prevent
loss of slurry from the application equipment. It shall be
maintained to prevent loss of slurry on varying grades and
adjusted to assure a uniform distribution of materials.
There shall be a lateral control device and a flexible
strike-off capable of being adjusted to lay the slurry
at the specified rate of application. The box shall be
kept clean; slurry or coal tar buildup on the box shall not
be permitted.
625-4.3 PREPARATION OF PAVEMENT SURFACE. Bituminous pavement surfaces
which have been softened by petroleum derivatives or have failed
due to any other causes shall be removed to the full depth of the
damage and replaced with new bituminous concrete similar to that
of the existing pavement. Areas of the pavement surface to be
treated shall be in a firm consolidated condition. They shall be
sufficiently cured so that there is no concentration of oils on
the surface. This can usually be determined by pouring water on
the surface to be treated. If the water, after standing for a
short period of time, picks up a film of oil, then that surface
is not sufficiently cured for the application of the sealcoat.
For sealing of random cracks in the existing pavement refer to Specification
Item P-630.
625- 4 . '4 . CLEANING EXISTING SURFACE. Prior to placinq the sealcoa t, the
surface of the pavement shall be clean and free from dust, dirt,
or other loose foreign matter, grease, oil or any type of object-
ionable surface film. When directed by the Engineer, the existing
surface shall be cleaned with a power blower and w2re brushes.
P-625-4
Where vegetation exists in cracks, the vegetation shall be
removed and the cracks cleaned to a depth of two inches where
practical. Those cracks shall be treated with a concentrated
solution of a herbicide subject to the review of the Engineer.
Areas that have been subjected to fuel or oil spillage shall be
wire brushed to remove any dirt accumulations. The area shall th0n
be primed with shellac or a synthetic resin to prevent the seal-
coat from debonding. All cracks may be filled with the slurry at
the time it is applied to the pavement. However, such applications
must be made with a slurry box or by hand, if they are not random
cracks, and fill the cracks to the surface in as many applications
as is necessary to bring the void condition to the level of the
surface.
625-4.5 APPLICATION OF SLURRY. When the four components are blended
together in the mixing equipment, they shall be introduced into
the mixing equipment in the following order: first the coal tar
pitch emulsion, water, sand and then the latex rubber. The latex
emulsion shall not be diluted with water and shall conform to
section 2.4 LATEX RUBBER. All materials shall be premixed to
produce a homogenous mixture of uniform consistency. The
quantities of materials to be combined in each batch shall be in
accordance with the proportions shown in ~able 2. The mixing shall
continue for approximately five minutes or longer if necessary.
The mixing shall produce a smoo~h, free flowing homogenous mix-
ture of uniform consistency. Slow mixing shall be continuous from
the time the bitumen is placed into the mixer until the slurry is
applied by distributor truck or poured into the spreading squeegee
equipment. During the entire mixing process, no breaking,
segregating, coagulation or hardening of the emulsion, nor
balling, lumping or ~onqlomeration shall be permitted. The slurry
shall be applied at a uniform rate to provide the desired
application rate. A sufficient amount of slurry shall be fed into
the spreader box to keep a full supply against the full width of
the squeegee, so that complete coverage of all surface voids and
cracks in the pavement is obtained.
In areas where a spreader box cannot be used, the slurry shall be
applied by means of a hand squeegee. The hand squeegee shall also
. be used in areas where access prevents the use of the spray
distributor equipment.
Upon completion of the work, the sealcoat shall have no pin holes,
bare spots or cracks through which liquids or foreign matter
could penetrate to the underlying pavement. The finished surface
shall present a uniform texture.
P-625-5
Each application shall be allowed to dry thoroughly before the
next coat is applied.
625-4.6 CURING. The coating shall be permitted to dry until dry to touch
after the final application a period of at least two hours o[
sunlight for the coating to coalesce. After the coating has ~oal-
esced, it may be opened to traffic. Any damage to the uncured
mixture will be the responsibility of the Contractor to repair
at his own expense.
625-4.7 HANDLING. The mixture shall be continuously agitated from t~e
time the materials are combined and until its application on the
pavement surface. The distributor, spreader box,' pumps and all
other tools shall be maintained in satisfactory condition. All
equipment can be cleaned with a solvent such a toluene or
xylene.
625-4.8 CONTRACTOR'S CERTIFICATION. The Contractor shall furnish a
manufacturer's certification for each of the components before
the test section is applied. These certifications shall be on
the coal tar pitch emulsion meeting Federal Specification
R-P-355, with the exception that it shall not have a water
content exceeding 50%, and that the water to be used (3.1
COMPOSITION) shall meet the (Ph) factor acceptable to the coal
tar pitch emulsion manufacturer. The certification shall also
indicate the solids and ash content of the emulsion. The sand
certification shall show that the manufacturer intends to meet
the gradation requirement. The latex rubber manufacturer shall
certify that the materials to be delivered meet the generic
description in these specifications and are specifically
recommended for combining with coal tar pitch emulsion, water
and aggregate. This shall first be accomplished so the Engineer
can properly review the sample installation. During the delivery
of the materials, each consignment, the Contractor shall furnish
the Engineer with all weigh bills and delivery tickets and such
certifications that each delivery meets the specifications from
each supplier.
The manufacturers' certifications for the emulsion, sand and
latex shall not be interpreted as a basis of final acceptance.
. Any certification received shall be subject to the verification
thereof by testing samples received on the project for use on
the project. For further assurances, the Contractor shall
reconfirm all certifications with the manufacturer of the latex,
to prevent vendors or contractors certifying in lieu of
manufacturers.

placed in the bottom of the trench as bedding for the duct. The bedding ma terial shall
consist of soft dirt, sand or other fine fill, and it shall contain no particles that would
be retained on a 1/4-inch sieve. The bedding material shall be tampered until firm.
Unless otherwise shown in plans, ducts for direct burial shall be installed so that the
tops of all ducts are at least 18 inches below the finished grade.
When two or more ducts are installed in the same trench without concrete
encasement, they shall be spaced no less than 2 inches apart (measured from outside
wall to outside wall) in a horizontal direction and not less than 6 inches apart in a
vertical direction.
Trenches shall be opened the complete length before duct is installed so tha t if any
obstructions are encountered, proper provisions can be made to avoid them.
110-3.4 DUCT MARKERS. The location of the ends of all ducts shall be marked by
concrete slab markers 2 feet square and 4 inches thick extending approximately 1 inch
above the surface. The markers shall be located above the ends of all ducts or duct
banks, except where ducts terminate in a handhole, manhole or building.
