This is a technical specification document illustrating mooring point installation procedures for existing rigid pavement with thickness greater than 150 millimeters (6 inches), effective as of Change 3, dated 4 February 2020.

The specification details the installation of a mooring device in rigid concrete pavements through a plan view and cross-sectional diagram. Key requirements include: drilling a 300mm (12-inch) diameter core hole through the existing pavement; installing mooring devices at point B with a minimum spacing of 600mm (24 inches) between installation locations; ensuring the mooring device top is flush with the existing pavement surface; roughening the core hole via sand blasting with a minimum 50mm (2-inch) clearance; and placing concrete with a minimum compressive strength of 41,400 kPa (6000 psi) in at least 2 lifts with internal vibration to allow consolidation and mushrooming below the existing slab. The concrete placement must accommodate the existing pavement and construction joints. Additional details regarding the mooring device specifications are referenced in Figure B11-1.
