This Section in its entirety is to be completed by Government.

1.01 DEFINITIONS

A. Use definitions from ASTM D653 (USBR 3900).

B. Control Fraction: The portion of a soil sample consisting of particles smaller than a designated sieve size. The fraction is used to compare in-place unit weight with standard laboratory unit weight. The control sieve size depends on the laboratory test used to determine laboratory maximum density.

C. C-Value: The ratio expressed as a percentage of (1) in-place unit weight at fill moisture content to (2) the wet unit weight of a laboratory-compacted specimen prepared at fill moisture content as determined by the rapid method of construction control in accordance with ASTM D5080 (USBR7240). The C-Value is a comparison of compactive effort of field compaction equipment to standard laboratory compactive effort.

D. D-value: The ratio expressed as a percentage of (1) in-place wet unit weight at fill moisture content to (2) laboratory maximum wet unit weight as determined from a compaction curve constructed at fill moisture content as determined by the rapid method of construction control ASTM D5080 (USBR 7240). The D-value is the equivalent of percent compaction in accordance with ASTM D698 (USBR5500).

E. Percent Compaction: The ratio expressed as a percentage of the in place unit dry unit weight to the laboratory maximum dry unit weight

F. Special compaction: Compaction close to structures or in spaces not accessible by standard width rollers.

A. Do not place and compact soil under following conditions:

1. Rain that creates puddles in clayey or silty materials.

2. Heat or wind or both that dries material below specified moisture conditions.

3. Ice, frost, or snow pockets are visible in soil being placed or in underlying materials.

B. Ambient air temperature below freezing may make placement and compaction operations difficult.

1. Minimize interruptions of operations.

2. Continuous operations may be required to eliminate freezing of materials.

3. Obtain COR approval, before performing operations when ambient air temperatures are below freezing.

4. Cease operations when placed materials are freezing or below freezing.

2.01 CLASSIFICATION

A. When required, classify earth materials using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) according to ASTM D2487 (USBR 5000) or ASTM D2488 (USBR 5005).

2.02 SOIL TYPES

A. Clean Fill:

1. Any soil except soils with classifications Peat (PT), Organic Silts and Organic

Clays (OL and OH), or Elastic Silt (MH) per ASTM D2487 (USBR 5000).

2.03 DESIGNATION OF SOILS FOR COMPACTION

A. Requirements for lift thickness, method of compaction, and method of determining degree of compaction depends on whether soil is considered to be silty or clayey, cohesionless, or cohesionless containing some silt and clay.

B. Silty or Clayey Soils:

1. Contains appreciable amounts of fines (more than 15 percent plastic fines or 30 percent non-plastic fines).

C. Cohesionless Soils:

1. Contains few fines (less than 5 percent fines).

D. Cohesionless Soils Containing Some Clay and Silt:

1. Contains some clay and silt (between 5 percent fines and 15 percent plastic fines or

30 percent non-plastic fines).

2.04 MAXIMUM PARTICLE SIZE

A. Soil for compacted backfill and embankment:

31 23 02 - 10

Hellgate Campground Water System Expansion Bureau of Reclamation

3.01 SURFACE PREPARATION

A. Clear, grub, and strip.

B. Prepare surface so that first compacted lift will be placed on firm, stable base. Compact surface to specified compaction, if necessary.

C. For water-retaining compacted fill, scarify and moisten surface to provide satisfactory bonding surface before placing layer of material to be compacted.

3.02 SOIL MOISTURE CONTENT

A. Moisten or aerate material, as necessary, to provide moisture content that will readily facilitate obtaining specified compaction. Add water to soil only in increments that will permit moisture content to be uniform and homogenous throughout each layer after mixing.

B. Silty and Clayey Soils and Cohesionless Soils Containing Some Silt and Clay:

1. Add no more than 2 percent water to fill by sprinkling just prior to compaction when fill is clayey and contains dry clods of clay.

a. If clayey borrow soil is more than 2 percent below optimum moisture, pre-conditioning and curing may be required to obtain uniform and homogenous distribution of moisture in the clods.

b. Use of disks, harrows, or rakes may be required to blend moisture in the borrow area.

2. Moisture content during compaction:

a. Soils controlled by impact compaction.

1) Not greater than 2 percentage points wet or not less than 4 percentage points dry of optimum moisture content.

b. Soils controlled by the vibrating hammer.

1) Within the water content range for effective compaction as determined by ASTM D7382.

C. Cohesionless Soils:

1. Add water during compaction, as necessary, since these soils are free-draining.

31 23 02 - 11
