I <br /> 1 Upon discharge from the mixer, ensure that the temperature of the HMA does not exceed <br /> 2 the optimum mixing temperature shown on the accepted Mix Design Report by more than <br /> 3 25°F, or as allowed by the Engineer. When an additive is included in the manufacture of <br /> 4 HMA, do not heat the additive (at any stage of production including in binder storage <br /> 5 tanks) to a temperature higher than the maximum recommended by the manufacturer of <br /> 6 the additive. <br /> 7 <br /> 8 5-04.3(7) Spreading and Finishing <br /> 9 The last row of the table is revised to read: <br /> 10 <br /> % inch 0.25 feet 0.30 feet <br /> 11 <br /> 12 5-04.3(8) Aggregate Acceptance Prior to Incorporation in HMA <br /> 13 The following new paragraph is inserted after the first paragraph: <br /> 14 <br /> 15 The Contracting Agency's combined aggregate bulk specific gravity (Gsb) blend as I <br /> 16 shown on the HMA Mix Design will be used for VMA calculations until the Contractor <br /> 17 submits a written request for a Gsb test. The new Gsb will be used in the VMA calculations <br /> 18 for HMA from the date the Engineer receives the written request for a Gsb retest. The <br /> 19 Contractor may request aggregate specific gravity (Gsb) testing be performed by the <br /> 20 Contracting Agency twice per project. The Gsb blend of the combined stockpiles will be <br /> 21 used to calculate voids in mineral aggregate (VMA) of any HMA produced after the new <br /> 22 Gsb is determined. <br /> 23 <br /> 24 5-04.3(9)A1 Test Section — When Required, When to Stop <br /> 25 The following new row is inserted after the second row in Table 9: <br /> 26 <br /> VMA Minimum PF; of 0.95 None4 <br /> based on the criteria in <br /> Section 5-04.3(9)B42 <br /> 27 <br /> 28 5-04.3(9)A2 Test Section — Evaluating the HMA Mixture in a Test Section <br /> 29 In Table 9a, the test property"Gradation,Asphalt Binder, and Va" is revised to read "Gradation, <br /> 30 Asphalt Binder, VMA, and Va". <br /> 31 <br /> 32 5-04.3(9)63 Mixture Statistical Evaluation — Acceptance Testing <br /> 33 In Table 11, "Va" is revised to read "VMA and Va" <br /> 34 <br /> 35 5-04.3(9)65 Mixture Statistical Evaluation — Composite Pay Factors (CPF) <br /> 36 The following new row is inserted above the last row in Table 12: <br /> 37 <br /> Voids in Mineral Aggregate 2 <br /> (VMA) <br /> 38 <br /> 39 5-04.3(9)67 Mixture Statistical Evaluation — Retests <br /> 40 The second to last sentence is revised to read: <br /> 41 <br /> 42 The sample will be tested for a complete gradation analysis, asphalt binder content, VMA <br /> 43 and Va, and the results of the retest will be used for the acceptance of the HMA mixture <br /> 44 in place of the original mixture sublot sample test results. <br /> I <br />
