Different aggregate <br /> 2 sizes shall be kept separated until they have been delivered to the HMA plant. <br /> 3 <br /> 4 5-04.3(6) Mixing I <br /> 5 After the required amount of mineral materials, asphalt binder, recycling agent and anti- <br /> 6 stripping additives have been introduced into the mixer the HMA shall be mixed until <br /> 7 complete and uniform coating of the particles and thorough distribution of the asphalt I <br /> 8 binder throughout the mineral materials is ensured. <br /> 9 <br /> 10 When discharged, the temperature of the HMA shall not exceed the optimum mixing I <br /> 11 temperature by more than 25°F as shown on the reference mix design report or as <br /> 12 approved by the Engineer. Also, when a WMA additive is included in the manufacture of <br /> 13 HMA, the discharge temperature of the HMA shall not exceed the maximum I <br /> 14 recommended by the manufacturer of the WMA additive. A maximum water content of 2 <br /> 15 percent in the mix, at discharge, will be allowed providing the water causes no problems <br /> 16 with handling, stripping, or flushing. If the water in the HMA causes any of these I <br /> 17 problems, the moisture content shall be reduced as directed by the Engineer. <br /> 18 <br /> 19 Storing or holding of the HMA in approved storage facilities will be permitted with I <br /> 20 approval of the Engineer, but in no event shall the HMA be held for more than 24 hours. <br /> 21 HMA held for more than 24 hours after mixing shall be rejected. Rejected HMA shall be <br /> 22 disposed of by the Contractor at no expense to the Contracting Agency. The storage I <br /> 23 facility shall have an accessible device located at the top of the cone or about the third <br /> 24 point. The device shall indicate the amount of material in storage. No HMA shall be <br /> 25 accepted from the storage facility when the HMA in storage is below the top of the cone I <br /> 26 of the storage facility, except as the storage facility is being emptied at the end of the <br /> 27 working shift. <br /> 28 I 29 Recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) utilized in the production of HMA shall be sized prior <br /> 30 to entering the mixer so that a uniform and thoroughly mixed HMA is produced. If there is <br /> 31 evidence of the recycled asphalt pavement not breaking down during the heating and <br /> 32 mixing of the HMA, the Contractor shall immediately suspend the use of the RAP until <br /> 33 changes have been approved by the Engineer. After the required amount of mineral <br /> 34 materials, RAP, new asphalt binder and asphalt rejuvenator have been introduced into <br /> 35 the mixer the HMA shall be mixed until complete and uniform coating of the particles and I <br /> 36 thorough distribution of the asphalt binder throughout the mineral materials, and RAP is <br /> 37 ensured. <br /> 38 <br /> 39 5-04.3(7) Spreading and Finishing <br /> 40 The mixture shall be laid upon an approved surface, spread, and struck off to the grade I <br /> 41 and elevation established. HMA pavers complying with Section 5-04.3(3) shall be used <br /> 42 to distribute the mixture. Unless otherwise directed by the Engineer, the nominal <br /> 43 compacted depth of any layer of any course shall not exceed the following: <br /> 44 I <br /> 45 HMA Class 1" 0.35 feet <br /> 46 HMA Class 3/4" and HMA Class '/2" I <br /> 47 wearing course 0.30 feet <br /> I <br /> 2021 PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE OVERLAY PAGE 56 OF 84 DIVISION T <br /> WORK ORDER 3751 MARCH 29,2021 I <br />
