PORT OF EVERETT <br />W MARINE VIEW DR <br />IMPROVEMENTS <br />CIP NO. 3-0-003-09 <br />PROJECTNO. <br />PD-WM-20006-01 <br />density tests will be taken. The isolated area will then be evaluated for price adjustment in <br />accordance with the statistical evaluation section, considering it as a separate lo�. <br />5-04.3(11) Joints <br />The Contractor shall conduct operations such that the placing of the top or wearing course is a <br />continuous operation or as close to continuous as possible. Unscheduled transverse joints will <br />be allowed and the roller may pass over the unprotected end of the freshly laid HMA only when <br />the placement of the course must be diswntinued for such a length of time that the HMA will cool <br />below compaction temperature. When the work is resumed, the previously compacted HMA <br />shall be cut back to produce a slightly beveied edge for the full thickness of the :ourse. <br />Where a scheduled transverse joint or when an unscheduled joint that must be left in place after <br />a workshift is being made in the wearing course, strips of heavy wrapping paper shall be used. <br />The wrapping paper shall be removed and the joint trimmed to a slightly beveled edge for the full <br />lhickness ot the course prior to resumption ot paving. When the transverse joint will be open to <br />traffic a temporary wedge of HMA shall be constructed 50H:1V or flatter. <br />The material that is cut away shall be wasted and new HMA shall be laid against the fresh cut. <br />Rollers or tamping irons shall be used to seal lhe joint. <br />The longitudinal joint in any one course shall be oHset from the course immediately below by not <br />more than 6 inches nor less than 2 inches. All longitudinal joints constructed in the wearing <br />course shall be located at a lane line or an edge line of the traveled way. Except, on one-lane <br />ramps a longitudinal joint may be constructed at the center of the traffic lane, subject to approval <br />by the Project Engineer, if: <br />1. The ramp must remain open to tra�c, or <br />2. The ramp is closed to traffic and a hot-lap joint is constructed. <br />If a hot-lap joint is allowed, lwo paving machines shall be used; a minimum compacted density in <br />accordance with Section 5-04.3(10)8 shall be achieved throughout the traffc lane; and <br />construction equipment other than rollers shall not operate on any uncompacted HMA. <br />When HMA is placed adjacent to cement concrete pavement, the Contractor shall construct <br />longitudinal joints belween the HMA and the cement concrete pavement. The joint shall be <br />sawed to the dimensions shown on Standard Plan A-1 and flled with joint sealant meeting lhe <br />requiremenls of Section 9•04.2. <br />5-04.3(12) Vacant <br />5•04.3(13) Sur(ace Smoothness <br />The completed surface of all courses shall be of uniform texture, smooth, unifortn as to crown <br />and grade, and iree from defecls of all kinds. The completed surface of the wearing course shall <br />not vary more than [1/8 inch irom the lower edge of a 10-foot straightedge placed on the surface <br />parallel to the centerline. The transverse slope of the completed surface of lhe wearing course <br />shall vary not more lhan Y. inch in 10 feet from the rate of transverse slope shown in the Plans. <br />When deviations in excess of the above tolerances are found that result from a high piace in the <br />HMA, the pavement surface shall be corzected by one of the following methods: <br />Page 23 of 50 <br />
