ASPHALT PATCHING AND REPAIR REQUIREMENT

Base Failure or No Base: In areas where the asphalt base has failed, and in road-cut areas where no base exists, the Contractor shall remove the asphalt, stone or soil, provide and compact an adequate base, and re-pave with minimum 2.5 inches of base asphalt and 1.5 inches of wearing course asphalt. Contractor shall tack coat vertical surfaces to ensure bondage to existing asphalt. Repaired areas shall be properly compacted so that traffic does not further compress the patched areas.

ASPHALT PAVING REQUIREMENT

Surface Preparation: The Contractor shall clean existing pavement surfaces immediately prior to paving by sweeping or flushing well with water or a combination of both. Contractor shall ensure that the surface is free of dust, dirt, grease, vegetation, oil, standing water or any type of objectionable surface film. The Contractor shall remove oil or grease that has not penetrated the asphalt pavement by scraping or by scrubbing with a detergent and washing thoroughly with clean water. After cleaning, these areas shall be treated with an oil spot primer.

Milling shall be performed by the Contractor in the areas where old asphalt roadways intersect the new surface overlay. The Contractor shall mill the areas to a minimum depth of 2 inches to accommodate a smooth transition with the new pavement.

The Contractor shall apply a tack coat of emulsified asphalt or equivalent. Immediately prior to paving, the tack coat shall be applied to the clean surface at a rate of 0.10 to

0.20 gallons per square yard. Pools of primer material remaining on the surface after application shall be removed. All traffic not essential to the work shall be kept off the tack coat. Care shall be taken when applying the tack coat to prohibit the spray from adhering to any objects other than the surface to be paved. The Contractor shall be responsible for removing over-spray tack coat. The Contractor shall apply the tack coat only to the areas he/she will resurface each day.

Materials: Overlay wearing course asphalt shall be plant-mixed 64/22 Mix Dense-graded Asphalt or equivalent, having a small Nominal Maximum Aggregate Size (NMAS) of #8 or less. The aggregate shall be skid resistant.

Base course asphalt shall be used for the repaired areas. Base shall be a plant-mixed asphalt equivalent to the industry standard for West Virginia – plant mix type

Base 2 aggregate or equivalent.

Application: Asphalt courses shall be spread and struck off with a paver. Any irregularities in the surface of the pavement course shall be corrected directly behind the paver. Excess material forming high spots shall be removed with a shovel or lute.

Indented areas shall be filled with hot mix and smoothed; casting of mix over such areas shall not be permitted.

Paving operations shall be as continuous as possible. The Contractor shall arrange paving to provide hot joints wherever possible. Where it is necessary to leave a cold joint, the edge shall be squared vertically and horizontally and compacted. When matching a cold joint, the Contractor shall paint the joint with emulsion prior to paving.

Areas where it is impractical to use a paver or spread box, asphalt surface courses may be spread and finished by hand. Wood or steel forms, rigidly supported to assure correct grade and cross section, may be used. Placing by hand shall be performed carefully to avoid segregation of the mix. Broadcasting of the material shall not be permitted. Any lumps that do not break down readily shall be removed.

The Contractor shall maintain existing crown and slope and ensure that final grade properly drains surface water.

Compaction: The Contractor shall utilize rolling equipment of adequate size and weight, and begin rolling as soon as the hot mix material can be compacted without displacement. Rolling shall continue until thoroughly compacted and all roller marks have been worked out. In areas too small for roller, a vibrating compactor or hand tamper shall be used to achieve thorough compaction.

HOURS OF OPERATION

Working Hours are from 0730-1600 hours Monday through Friday. Work may continue outside these times with permission from the onsite government representative. All work shall be performed during daylight hours.
