Product Control.

1.Size Requirements. Use various size cover material that comply with TABLE 1108-1. Determine the gradation factor according to Part V, Section 5.10.5-Fineness Modulus of Aggregates (Gradation Factor).
2.Deleterious Substances. Do not exceed th e following deleterious substances by weight:  Shale or Shale like material (KT-8) ............................................................... 1.5%  Clay lumps and friable particles (KT-7) ......................................................... 1.5%  Coal (AASHTO T-113) .................................................................................. 0.5%  Sticks (wet) (KT-35) ...................................................................................... 0.1%  Sum of all deleterious ...................................................................................... 2.0% TABLE 1108-1: GRADATION REQUIREMENTS FOR AGGREGATES FOR COVER MATERIAL Type Composition Percent Retained-Square Mesh Sieves* Minimum Gradation Factor ¾” ½” 3/8” No. 4 No. 8 No. 50 No. 200 CM-A Sand-Gravel 0 0-20 30-100 85-100 98-100 CM-B Sand-Gravel 0 0-25 35-100 90-100 98-100 4.00 CM-C Crushed Stone 0 0-12 40-100 95-100 98-100 CM-D Crushed Sandstone 0 0-5 15-35 70-100 95-100 98-100 CM-G Sand-Gravel, or Crushed Sandstone 0 0-15 45-100 95-100 99-100 CM-H** Crushed Stone 0 0-5 40-100 90-100 98-100 CM-J** Sand-Gravel 0 1-20 30-100 90-100 96-100 CM-K Crushed Limestone 0 0-5 15-35 70-100 95-100 98-100 CM-L-1 Lightweight Aggregate 0 0 0-10 10-40 85-100 98-100 CM-L-2 Lightweight Aggregate 0 0-5 0-15 70-100 90-100 98-100 CM-L-3 Lightweight Aggregate 0-15 0-60 65-100 95-100 98-100 *After removal of all deleterious substances. **Do not specify Types CM-H and CM-J for Federal Aid projects. 1108 - AGGREGATES FOR COVER MATERIAL 1100-26 d. Stockpiling. Stockpile and handle aggregates in such a manner to prevent detrimental degradation and segregation, the incorporation of appreciable amounts of foreign material, and the intermingling of stockpiled materials.

1108.3 Test Methods

Test aggregates according to the applicable provisions of SECTION 1115.

1108.4 Prequalification

Prequalify aggregate sources according to subsection 1101.4.

1108.5 Basis of Acceptance

Aggregates covered by this subsection are accepted based on the procedures described in subsection 1101.5.
