Summary of Work: The CONTRACTOR shall provide all labor equipment and <br />materials to rework the existing rock base and shall include the adding of new <br />limerock material as required by the plans or as specified herein. <br />1.02 APPLICABLE PUBLICATIONS: The following standard specifications shall apply to the <br />work of this section as indicated: <br />A. Florida Department of Transportation. <br />1. Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, latest edition, <br />(FDOT). <br />B. American Society of Testing Materials, (ASTM). <br />1. ASTM D1557-00, Standard Test Methods for Laboratory Compaction <br />Characteristics of Soil Using the Modified Effort (56,000 ft-lb/ft3 (2,700 kN- <br />m/m3)). <br />2. ASTM D 2922-01, Standard Test Methods for Density of Soil and Soil- <br />Aggregate in Place by the Nuclear Methods (Shallow Depth). <br />1.03 DEFINITIONS: (Not Used) <br />1.04 SUBMITTALS: (Not Used) <br />1.05 QUALIFICATIONS: (Not Used) <br />1.06 RESPONSIBILITIES: (Not Used) <br />1.07 CERTIFICATIONS AND TESTING: <br />A. TESTS: CONTRACTOR shall perform field density tests in accordance with ASTM <br />D 2922-01, Test for Density of Soil and Soil-Aggregate in Place by the Nuclear <br />Method, for every 300 LF of limerock installed. The areas to be tested shall be <br />determined by the ENGINEER. Laboratory compaction tests in accordance with <br />D1557-00 Standard Test Methods for Laboratory compaction Characteristics of Soil <br />Using the Modified Effort (56,000 ft-lbf/cu. ft.) will also be performed as required. <br />The CONTRACTOR shall make the site available for independent testing and <br />cooperate fully to allow tests to be taken. Failure to meet the specified density will <br />require the CONTRACTOR to recompact and retest those areas directed by the <br />ENGINEER. <br />1.08 INSPECTION COORDINATION: The CONTRACTOR shall provide access to the WORK <br />for the ENGINEER as requested for inspection. The Contractor shall provide 48 hours <br />notice of its intention to begin new WORK activities. <br />1.09 WARRANTY: (Not Used)
