Upon <br /> removal of the disturbed soil, the roadway alignment should be proof rolled with a fully loaded <br /> dump truck. Observed soft spots should be excavated down to firm soil and backfilled with <br /> ICSBC compacted as structural fill. Alternatively, if soft soils extend greater than 12 inches into <br /> subgrade soil the upper 12 inches of the soft soil subgrade may be over-excavated with a layer of <br /> I Mirafi BX120 placed at the base and 12 inches of CSBC placed as structural above it. Another <br /> option is to over-excavate subgrades by at least 12 inches and replace the subgrade materials with <br /> at least 12 inches of 2 to 4-inch quarry spalls with a separation fabric above it (Mirafi 140N, or <br /> Iequivalent). Once the repair of soft spots is completed these areas should be proof rolled again <br /> prior to pavement section placement. <br /> I4.5.2 Design Traffic <br /> Transportation Engineering Northwest provided current anticipated trip generations, consisting <br /> I of an Average Daily Traffic(ADT) count of 11,080 for both directions. Our design is based on a <br /> 50% split of traffic on the lanes with 2%of the traffic considered heavy traffic. Each heavy <br /> vehicle was considered to provide 0.6 Equivalent Single Axel Load (ESAL). <br /> IUsing this data, we calculate approximately 970,900 ESAL for a 20-year design life. <br /> I The pavement recommendations presented in this report are based on these traffic calculations. <br /> If additional traffic count information is obtained that varies appreciably from these values, the <br /> recommendations given in this report should be reviewed and revised as necessary. <br /> 4.5.3 Pavement Design <br /> I Table 3 provides our HMA design recommendations, assuming the traffic loading, and pavement <br /> design parameters described above. These pavement designs are based on the design method <br /> given in the 1993 AASHTO Design Guide(AASHTO, 1993) using a required AASHTO <br /> IStructural Number(SN) of 4.01, as indicated above. <br /> Table 3. <br /> I Structure Requirements for New HMA Pavement—20-Year Design Life <br /> Material Minimum Layer <br /> WSDOT Standard Specification <br /> Description Thickness <br /> IHMA 3 5-04 & 9-02.1 <br /> ATB 5 9-03.9(3) <br /> ICSBC 12 9-03.9(3) <br /> HMA: Hot Mix Asphalt <br /> I ATB: Asphalt Treated Base <br /> CSBC: Crushed SurfacingBase Course, compacted as specified. <br /> p p <br /> 1 <br /> Geotechnical Report Revision 3 26 2019.doc 19 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC. <br />
