construction methods, and dens ity requirements used on the accepted control strip. A new control strip shall be constructed if cha nges are made outside the tolerances of the original mix design, equipment, or construction methods. 260 The processed material shall be uniformly compacted in one layer to a minimum of 95% of the maximum density. Maximum density shall be determined in accordance with AASHTO T 180 at the required QC frequency from a representative sample collected after the cement has been added and mixed into the pulverized material but prior to compaction. Compaction shall be monitored in accordance with AASHTO T 310 in the direct transmission mode and continue to reach a minimum of 95% of the established maximum density during the control strip and for the remainder of the compaction operation. 270 Compaction equipment shall be in acc ordance with 307.07(e). Initial compaction shall be within 500 ft of the reclaiming unit using either a vibratory pad-foot roller, a pneumatic tire roller or a combination of the two. The pass counts shall continue to increase until the cleat indentations from the pad-foot roller are no more than 3/16 in. in depth and light can be seen between the pad-foot and RBC interface or there are no wheel impressions from the pneumatic tire roller remaining in the RBC. The cement stabilized material shall be bladed and shaped by a motor grader in accordance with 307.07(d) to remove any rema ining roller marks or indentations then 280 leveled in accordance with 301.07. The pr ofile grade and cross-section of the RBC shall be finished within a tolerance of ±1/2 in. from the plan RBC elevation prior to profile milling. Intermediate and final compaction shall be applied to the bladed and shaped RBC using either a pneumatic tire roller, a single or double drum vibratory steel roller, or a combination of the two. Finish rolling shall not be performed in vibratory mode. The compaction operation shall be performed while the RBC remains in a workable condition and continued until roller marks no longer appear. 290 Any type of rolling effort that causes cracking, displacement, or other type of pavement distress shall be discontinued until such time as the problem can be resolved as approved by the Engineer. The QC technician shall be on site, observing all compaction efforts and approving areas as they reach minimum rela tive compaction. Care shall be taken to not over compact the mat. All tests shall be conducted at the stated QC testing frequencies throughout FDR operations. 300 307.11 289 307.12 Maintenance The Contractor shall maintain the RBC until the surface course has been constructed. Any damage to the completed recycled material shall be repaired by the Contractor prior to the placement of new HMA or final surface sealing. Patching shall be in accordance with 304. The excavated patch areas shall be filled and compacted with HMA or RBC material as directed by the Engineer. No payment will be made for damage or repair unless approved by the Engineer. 310
307.13 Curing
The planned method and duration of curing for cement stabilized RBC shall be in accordance with the QCP. The specified surface course shall be placed within two weeks of the RBC final cure, but no later than November 1. Before placing the final surfacing, th e cement stabilized RB C shall remain in- place for a minimum of three days. Cement stabilized RBC shall be cured to minimize moisture loss from the surface 320 for a time period that achieves the minimum required 7-day unconfined strength.
307.14 Proofrolling The cement stabilized RBC shall be proo frolled in accordance with 203.26 using
a tandem or tri-axle dump truck loaded to the legal limit. The Engineer will determine the corrective remediation limits for any area that has deflection or rutting greater than 1/2 in. The Contractor shall rework the areas that fail in proofrolling by re-pulverizing and re-stabilizing the RBC in-place at no additional cost or by removing the RBC and 330 stabilizing the subgrade with subgrade treat ment Type IC in accordance with 207. In locations of failing subgrade, the RB C shall be removed and subgrade treatment Type IC shall be placed in accordance with 207. HMA patching, Type B shall be placed in accordance with 304 in place of the RBC.
307.15 Milling
The entire surface of the cement stabilized RBC shall be scarified in accordance with 306.04 in preparation for the overlay. Liquidated damages will not apply. Construction engineering in accordance with 105.08(b) shall be provided. 340
307.16 Underdrain Installation Underdrain installation in accordance with 718, when required, shall begin after
proofrolling has been completed.
307.17 RBC Overlay
The overlay atop the RBC shall be as shown on the plans. The overlay shall be placed after proofrolling has been completed. 307.17 The RBC shall be swept of all loose material and standing water with a rotary 350 power broom in accordance with 409 immedi ately prior to placing the surface. The RBC shall be swept lightly to avoid damage to the RBC. A tack coat shall be required only for the HMA overlay and shall be applied to the RBC, in accordance with 406, immediately following sweeping operations. Monuments shall be reestablished in accordance with 615.10.
307.18 Opening to Traffic Opening to traffic shall occur after suff icient cure time in accordance with 307.13 360
has been applied to the RBC so traffic will not initiate raveling or permanent deformation. All loose particles that ma y develop on the pavement surface shall be removed by a rotary power broom in accordance with 409. After opening to traffic, the surface of th e RBC shall be maintained for the safe movement of traffic. 307.19 Method of Measurement The RBC will be measured by the square yard, complete in place. Cement, used as stabilizing material, will be measured by the ton. Subgrade treatment will be 370 measured in accordance with 207.05. Co rrective aggregate to adjust the RBC gradation will be measured by the ton of material used. HMA patching, Type B will be measured in accordance with 304.06. Milling will be measured in accordance with
