DE · 2025 Standard SpecificationsBook pages 658659View official source ↗

ASPHALT MATERIALS PRODUCTION SECTION 1014 648 1014.16 Silo Storage Systems. Convey the mixture from the plant to the storage system without a reduction in temperature, the segregation of the mix, or the oxidation of the asphalt. Store mixture for a maximum of 12 hours.

COLD PATCH SECTION 1015 649 SECTION 1015 — COLD PATCH

1015.1Material Requirements.

A.Produce cold patch that is a uniform mixture of compatible mineral aggregate and bituminous

material with uniformly coated aggregate and no stripping of the bituminous material from the aggregate. Incorporate 10 to 25 percent RAP in the mixture. The mix must be capable of storage in a stockpile for a minimum of 6 months without hardening or stripping and must remain workable in all weather conditions during the storage period.

B.Provide materials as specified in:
1.Coarse Aggregate Section 1014. 3
2.RAP / RAS Section 1014. 4
3.Bituminous Material See Below

1015.2Bituminous Material.

A.Must be a terminal blended material consisting of asphalt binder, a softening agent, and an

antistrip agent.

B.Softening agents are not permitted to be hydrocarbon based and must be VOC free.
C.Bituminous material must be piped directly from the transporting tanker into the mixing plant.
D.Temperature of bituminous material must not exceed 170 degrees F, or the temperature

recommended by the manufacturer in writing. Table 1015.2 -1.
