DIVISION 1 SHORT FORM GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

PART 1 – GENERAL

ITEM 1 - DESCRIPTION OF WORK

1.1 Background: The Delta-01 Launch Control Facility road and parking area was installed in 1962.

Pavement preservation is the only known reoccurring maintenance that has occurred over the last 58 years. The asphalt has numerous cracks and asphalt condition is deteriorated. The project would mill the current asphalt surface, and apply overlays with varied lift thicknesses to correct/restore slopes and allow water to flow away from the building foundation. The project will additionally replace failed asphalt pavement surrounding an existing helicopter landing pad.

1.2 Work Covered by the Contract Documents:

A. Project Location: 4.5 Miles Northwest of the Minuteman Missile National Historic Site Visitor Center, 24545 Cottonwood Road, Philip, SD 57567

B. Work consists of: Mill the existing asphalt driveway and parking area pavement to a depth of 3/4". For the parking area south of the existing structure, provide an asphalt overlay to a minimum 1" thickness at the south edge of the paved surface, and a minimum 2" thickness at the north edge of the paved surface (building foundation), providing a 1.0-2.0% slope for positive drainage across the entirety of the paved surface area. Provide an overlay at a minimum 1" thickness across the entirety of the access driveway. Demolish the failed 2" asphalt pavement surrounding the existing helicopter landing pad, compact existing aggregate base material, and provide a 2" asphalt pavement surface of equal design dimensions to the original design in a single lift. The total area of asphalt specified for mill and overlay (asphalt driveway and parking area) is estimated to be 2,300 SY. The total area of asphalt specified for demolition and replacement (helicopter landing pad perimeter) is estimated to be 550 SY. All pavement markings shall be reapplied to match existing conditions, all disturbed areas shall be restored, and all grades adjacent to paved surfaces shall be adjusted to match new paved surface elevations.

C. All work will be performed under a single contract.

D. Period of performance: Work shall be completed within 90 days calendar days of the start date provided on the Notice to Proceed.

a. Clarification: The Notice to Proceed will be issued with a period of performance that is all inclusive of supply lead times, material deliveries, decommissioning, installation, anticipated average weather days for location, final commissioning, and acceptance of completed work. The contractor will be expected to provide a project schedule with adequate critical path details to ensure all work is completed within the stated calendar days from issuance of the Notice to Proceed. If weather impacts project beyond typical average weather patterns, contractor shall provide documentation in request for additional days.

PART 3 - EXECUTION

3.1 SITE CLEARING

A. Remove slabs, paving, curbs, gutters, and walks as indicated.

Div. 32 V. 2021-10-18 ASPHALT PAVING 321216 Page | 4

1. Unless existing full-depth joints coincide with line of demolition, neatly saw-cut along line of existing pavement to remain before removing adjacent existing pavement. Saw-cut faces vertically.

B. Remove surplus soil material, demolished materials, and waste materials including trash and debris, and legally dispose of them off Government’s property.

3.2 EXAMINATION

A. Verify that subgrade is dry and in suitable condition to begin paving.

B. Proceed with paving only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.

3.3 PREPARATION

A. Protection: Provide protective materials, procedures, and worker training to prevent asphalt materials from spilling, coating, or building up on curbs, driveway aprons, manholes, and other surfaces adjacent to the Work.

B. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.

3.4 COLD MILLING

A. Clean existing pavement surface of loose and deleterious material immediately before cold milling. Remove existing asphalt pavement by cold milling to grades and cross sections indicated.

1. Mill to a depth as shown in the attached drawings.

2. Mill to a uniform finished surface free of excessive gouges, grooves, and ridges.

3. Control rate of milling to prevent tearing of existing asphalt course.

4. Repair or replace curbs, driveway aprons, manholes, and other construction damaged during cold milling. Any items removed to facilitate milling and paving (i.e. fence posts) shall be replaced undamaged at no cost to the Government.

5. Excavate and trim unbound-aggregate base course, if encountered, and keep material separate from milled hot-mix asphalt. If unbound-aggregate base course is encountered, notify CO and COR, and adjust milling depth as directed.

6. Patch surface depressions deeper than 1 inch after milling, before surface course is laid.

7. Keep milled pavement surface free of loose material and dust.

8. Do not allow milled materials to accumulate on-site.

3.5 REPAIRS

A. Crack and Joint Filling: Remove existing joint filler material from cracks or joints to a depth of 1/4 inch.

1. Clean cracks and joints in existing hot-mix asphalt pavement.

Div. 32 V. 2021-10-18 ASPHALT PAVING 321216 Page | 5

2. Use emulsified-asphalt slurry to seal cracks and joints less than 1/4 inch (6 mm) wide. Fill flush with surface of existing pavement and remove excess.

3. Use hot-applied joint sealant to seal cracks and joints more than 1/4 inch wide. Fill flush with surface of existing pavement and remove excess.

3.6 SURFACE PREPARATION

A. Immediately before placing asphalt materials, remove loose and deleterious material from substrate surfaces.

B. Emulsified Asphalt Prime Coat: Apply uniformly over surface of compacted unbound-aggregate base course at a rate of 0.10 to 0.30 gal./sq. yd. per inch depth. Apply enough material to penetrate and seal, but not flood, surface. Allow prime coat to cure.

1. If prime coat is not entirely absorbed within 24 hours after application, spread sand over surface to blot excess asphalt. Use enough sand to prevent pickup under traffic. Remove loose sand by sweeping before pavement is placed and after volatiles have evaporated.

2. Protect primed substrate from damage until ready to receive paving.

C. Tack Coat: Apply uniformly to surfaces of existing pavement at a rate of 0.05 to 0.15 gal./sq. yd.

1. Allow tack coat to cure undisturbed before applying hot-mix asphalt paving.

2. Avoid smearing or staining adjoining surfaces, appurtenances, and surroundings.

Remove spillages and clean affected surfaces.

3.7 HOT-MIX ASPHALT PLACEMENT

A. Machine place hot-mix asphalt on prepared surface, spread uniformly, and strike off. Place asphalt mix by hand in areas inaccessible to equipment in a manner that prevents segregation of mix. Place each course to required grade, cross section, and thickness when compacted.

1. Place hot-mix asphalt base course in number of lifts and thicknesses indicated.

2. Place hot-mix asphalt surface course in single lift.

3. Spread mix at a minimum temperature of 250 deg F.

4. Begin applying mix along centerline of crown for crowned sections and on high side of one-way slopes unless otherwise indicated.

5. Regulate paver machine speed to obtain smooth, continuous surface free of pulls and tears in asphalt-paving mat.

B. Place paving in consecutive strips not less than 10 feet wide unless infill edge strips of a lesser width are required.

1. After first strip has been placed and rolled, place succeeding strips and extend rolling to overlap previous strips. Overlap mix placement about 1 to 1-1/2 inches from strip to strip to ensure proper compaction of mix along longitudinal joints.

2. Complete a section of asphalt base course and binder course before placing asphalt sur-face course.

C. Promptly correct surface irregularities in paving course behind paver. Use suitable hand tools to remove excess material forming high spots. Fill depressions with hot-mix asphalt to prevent segregation of mix; use suitable hand tools to smooth surface.
