Apply half the dust abatement material. When the dust abatement material has penetrated, the windrow shall be bladed to a uniform depth across dust abatement Traveled Way, and the remaining dust abatement material shall be applied. Traveled Way shall be compacted.

Method 4. Develop a layer of loose material approximately 2 inches in depth for the full width of Traveled Way. Apply half the dust abatement material to the loose material. Blade the top 2 inches into a windrow along the Shoulder. Apply the remaining dust abatement material to Traveled Way and the Berm. Spread the Berm evenly across Traveled Way and compact.

SPECIFICATION T-811 SURFACE TREATMENT

Self-propelled aggregate spreader supported by at least four wheels equipped with pneumatic tires on two axles, situated so that at no time will the tires contact the uncovered bituminous materials. The aggregate spreader shall be equipped with positive controls so that the required amount of materials will be deposited uniformly over the full width.

Trucks with spreading attachments shall not be used.

3.4 Preparation of surface

Immediately before applying the bituminous material, the surface to be sealed shall be cleaned of all forgien and loose material.

3.5 Application of bituminous material

Bituminous material shall be applied in an uniform, continous spread. The distributor shall be moving forward at proper application speed, at the time the spray bar is opened. Skipped areas or deficiences shall be corrected prior to the application of cover aggregate.

The spread of bituminous material shall not be more than 6 inches wider than the width to be covered by the cover aggregate.

Operations shall not proceed if the bituminous material is allowed to cool, set up, dry, or otherwise impair retention of cover aggregate.

Fog seal shall be allowed to penetrate and dry before traffic is permitted on the sealed portion.

The surfaces of structures and trees adjacent to the area being treated shall be protected to prevent their being spattered or marred.

3.6 Application of Cover Aggregate and Blotter

Immediately following the application of the bituminous material, cover aggregate shall be spread at the specified rate. Joints between adjacent applications of cover aggregate shall be approximately in the center of two-lane roads.

The aggregate spreader shall not be operated at speeds which cause the aggregate to roll over after striking the bituminous material.

The cut-off of aggregate shall be complete, and any excess aggregate shall be removed from the surface prior to resuming operations.

Immediately after the cover aggregate has been spread, any piles, ridges, and uneven distribution shall be corrected.

Cover aggregates may be applied by hand in areas inaccessible to spreading equipment.

Rolling shall begin immediately after spreading the cover aggregate and shall consist of a minimum of two complete coverages.

The second treatment of a double chip seal shall not be applied until at least 24 hours after completion of a first treatment, when an emulsion or asphalt cement is used. If a medium cure liquid asphalt is used, 48 hours shall be allowed between applications. Prior to the second treatment, any loose cover aggregate remaining on the surface after the first treatment shall be removed in such a manner that the cover aggregate set in the bituminous material will not be displaced.

After rolling, traffic shall be controled to a maximum speed of 15 miles per hour for a period of 4 hours.

The day following the final application of cover aggregate, any concentrations of loose cover aggregate shall be redistributed without disturbing the embedded aggregate. Four days after the final application of cover aggregate, all excess cover aggregate shall be removed. During this period, any bituminous material that comes to the surface shall be covered with additional cover aggregate or approved blotter material.

3.7 Blotter material for fog seals shall be spread in sufficient quantity to prevent tire pickup.
