1060.01 Description. Waterproofing materials shall include asphalt primer,
waterproofing asphalt, waterproofing asphalt emulsion, and butyl rubber membrane. All waterproofing materials used in a given construction shall be uniform in character, appearance, and consistency.
1060.02 Sources of Supply. All sources of supply shall be approved by the
Department.
1060.03 Measurement of Volume. Measurement of volume of asphalt primer,
waterproofing asphalt, and waterproofing asphalt emulsion will be based on the volume of the material at 60 °F (15 °C). Volumes measured at higher or lower temperatures will be corrected to the volume of 60 °F (15 °C), using the Standard ASTM-IP Petroleum Measurement Tables, ASTM D 1250.
1060.04 Delivery. When waterproofing materials are not sampled at the
source by a representative of the Department, they shall be delivered far enough in advance of their use on the work to permit the necessary tests to be made. Waterproofing materials shall be delivered in suitable containers or packages, plainly labeled to show the kind of material, the name of the manufacturer, and the lot or batch number. Each shipment shall be kept separate until the material has been accepted.
1060.05 Methods of Sampling. Samples of asphalt plank, asphalt panel, and
butyl rubber shall be 3 ft (900 mm) in length and full width of the product.
1060.06 Asphalt Primer for Waterproofing. Asphalt primer for waterproofing
shall be Rapid Curing Liquid Asphalt RC-70 as specified in Article 1032.07 and shall be used prior to the application of waterproofing asphalts: AWP-Type I and AWP-Type II.
1060.07 Asphalt for Waterproofing (AWP). Asphalt for waterproofing (AWP)
shall be either Type I or Type II and shall be according to ASTM D 449. Type I. For use in waterproofing below ground level. The asphalt shall be free from water and shall not foam when heated to a temperature of 350 °F (177 °C). Type II. For use in waterproofing above ground level and for use in the construction of asphalt plank bridge floors. The asphalt shall be free of water and shall not foam when heated to a temperature of 400 °F (204 °C).
1060.08 Asphalt Emulsion for Waterproofing. Asphalt emulsion for
waterproofing shall be an anionic type emulsion of asphalt in water with an asphalt content of 60 to 65 percent and a Saybolt Furol viscosity at 77 °F (25 °C) of 20 to 80 SFS when tested according to AASHTO T 59. The asphalt residue recovered from distillation according to AASHTO T 59 shall be according to the requirements of ASTM D 449, Type I, asphalts for waterproofing, with the exception; the ring and ball
