334-8.1 General: Payment will be made under: Price and payment will be full compensation for all the work specified under this Section (including the applicable requirements of Sections 320 and 330). For materials accepted in accordance with 334- 5, based upon the quality of the material, a pay adjustment will be applied to the bid price of the material as determined on a LOT by LOT basis. The pay adjustment will be assessed by calculating a Pay Factor for the following individual quality characteristics:

pavement density, air voids, asphalt binder content, and the percentage passing the No.

200 and No. 8 sieves. The pay adjustment will be computed by multiplying a Composite Pay Factor (CPF) for the LOT by the bid price per Square Yard.

c. Replace Section 334-8.2.1 Partial Lots with the following:

334-8.2.1 Partial Lots: For Partial LOTs where no random sample is obtained due to insufficient square yardage, a CPF of 1.00 shall be applied.

Calculate the CPF by using the following formula:

CPF = [(0.400 x PF D) + (0.250 x PF Va) + (0.200 x PF Pb) + (0.100 x PF P-200) + (0.050 x PF P-8)]

Where the PF for each quality characteristic is determined in either 334-8.2.2 or 334- 8.2.3, depending on the number of sublot tests. Note that the number after each multiplication will be rounded to the nearest 0.01.

The pay adjustment shall be computed by multiplying the CPF for the LOT by the bid price per square yard.
