6. Compact as per Paragraph 3.2 Compaction requirements.

3.2 COMPACTION

A. General: Control soil compaction during construction providing minimum percentage of density specified for each area classification indicated below.

B. Compaction Requirements: Compaction shall be not less than the following percentages of maximum dry density:

Standard Proctor

ASTM D698

Construction Cohesive Type Soils

Paving, roadway, 95% Parking lot and critical backfill area beneath same; e.g. trenches

Backfill adjacent to 95% structures not supporting other structures- minor subsidence possible.

Lawn areas. Non-critical areas-

90% moderate subsidence possible.

*Use relative density technique (ASTM D4253 and D4254) where standard proctor technique (ASTM D698) does not result in a definable maximum dry density and optimum moisture content.

C. Moisture Control and Content:

1. When subgrade or layer of soil material must be moisture conditioned before compaction, uniformly apply water to surface of subgrade, or layer of soil material, to prevent free water appearing on surface during or subsequent to compaction operations.

2. Remove and replace, or scarify and air dry, soil material that is too wet to permit compaction to specified density.

D. Soil material that has been removed because it is too wet to permit compaction may be stockpiled or spread and allowed to dry. Assist drying by discing, harrowing or pulverizing until moisture content is reduced to a satisfactory value.

E. Protect The fill material shall be compacted at a moisture content typically within a range of minus two percent to plus four percent (-0% to +4%) of optimum moisture content as determined by ASTM D698 (Standard Proctor). Other acceptable moisture content ranges determined by the Engineer may be necessary to produce desirable results with specific soils.

3.3 BACKFILL AND FILL

A. General: Place acceptable soil material in layers to required subgrade elevations, for each area classification listed below.

1. In excavations, use satisfactory excavated or borrow material.

2. Under grassed areas, use satisfactory excavated or borrow material.

3. Under walks and pavements, use subbase material, or satisfactory excavated or borrow material, or combination of both.

4. Under steps, use subbase material.

Honey Creek Resort � Sidewalk DAS Project #9417.00 31 2000 - 5

5. Under piping and conduit, use subbase material where subbase is indicated under piping or conduit; shape to fit bottom 90 degrees of cylinder.

6. Utilize loess soil for fill only in the lower portion of deep fill sections or below frost depth under pavement/structures.

B. Ground Surface Preparation:

1. Clearing area to be filled: All timber, logs, trees, brush and rubbish shall be removed, piled or burned or otherwise acceptably disposed of.

2. Scarifying area to be filled:

a. All vegetable matter and dark colored organic soil shall be removed from the surface upon which the fill is to be placed, and the surface shall then be plowed or scarified to a depth of at least six inches and until the surface is free from ruts, hummocks or other uneven features which would tend to prevent uniform compaction by the equipment to be used.

b. Where fills are made on hillsides or slopes, the slope of the original ground upon which the fill is to be placed shall be plowed or scarified deeply or where the slope ratio of the original ground is steeper than 5 horizontals to 1 vertical, the bank shall be stepped or benched.

Ground slopes which are flatter than 5 to 1 shall be benched when considered necessary by the Engineer.

3. Compaction area to be filled: After the foundation for the fill has been cleared and plowed or scarified, it shall be disced or bladed until it is uniform and free from large clods, brought to within the specified moisture content range and compacted to not less than ninety-five percent (95%) of maximum dry density in accordance with current ASTM D698 (Standard Proctor).

C. Placement and Compaction:

1. Depth and Mixing of Fill Layers: The selected fill material shall be placed in level, uniform layers which, when compacted, shall have a density conforming to a minimum of ninety-five percent (95%) of maximum dry density in accordance with ASTM D698 (Standard Proctor). Each layer shall be thoroughly blade mixed during the spreading to insure uniformity of material in each layer.

Compacted layer thickness will be compatible with the demonstrated compatibility of the compaction equipment being used, with a compacted layer thickness of 6" considered typical.

2. Amount of Compaction: After each layer (lift) has been placed, mixed and spread evenly, it shall be thoroughly compacted to a minimum of ninety-five percent (95%) of the material's maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D698 (Standard Proctor) for areas supporting building foundations and floor slabs. Grassed areas or areas not supporting buildings or slabs-on-grade should be compacted to a minimum of ninety percent (90%).

3. Compaction of Fill Layer: Compaction equipment shall be of such design to be able to compact the fill to the specified density. Compaction shall be accomplished while the fill material is within the specified moisture content range. Compaction of each layer shall be continuous over its entire area and the compaction equipment shall make sufficient trips to ensure that the required density has been obtained.

4. Compaction of Slopes: Fill slopes shall be compacted. Compacting operations shall be continued until the slopes are stable but not too dense for planting on the slopes. Compacting of the slopes may be done progressively in increments of three to five feet (3' to 5') in fill height or after the fill is brought to its total height.

5. Do not place backfill or fill material on surfaces that are muddy, frozen, or contain frost or ice.

3.4 GRADING

A. General:

1. Uniformly grade areas within limits of grading under this Section, including adjacent transition areas.

2. Smooth finished surface within specified tolerances, compact with uniform levels or slopes between points where elevations are indicated, or between such points and existing grades.

b. Walks: Shape surface of areas under walks to line, grade and cross-section, with finish surface not more than 0.10' above or below required subgrade elevation.

C. Grading Surface of Fill Under Paving:

1. Grade smooth and even, free of voids, compacted as specified, and to required elevation.

Honey Creek Resort � Sidewalk DAS Project #9417.00 31 2000 - 6

A. General: Prepare site, place and compact excavated materials to required elevation and cross section.

B. Construction:

1. Construct embankment in horizontal layers not more than 6" in loose thickness.

2. Deposit each layer over full width of embankment as separate and distinct operation.

3. After layer is deposited, smooth to uniform depth by means of suitable motor patrol or bulldozer.

4. Compact layer by rolling with tamping type roller until full weight of roller is supported by tamping feet, but with not less than one pass per inch of loose thickness of layer.

5. Roller will be considered to be supported entirely on its tamping feet when feet do not penetrate more than 3" into material being compacted.

6. If soil is wet so that it will not sufficiently compact by one passing of roller per inch of loose thickness, provide one discing per 2" of loose thickness.

a. Cut and stir full depth of layer.

b. Allow interval of not longer than two hours between successive discings, or as directed by

Engineer.
