shoulder base course on a prepared surface in accordance with these specifications, in conformity with the lines, grades, thickness, and typical sections shown on the plans or established. Control the selection, placement, mixing and compaction of materials so that the completed base course is uniform and conforms to plan dimensions and other acceptance requirements. Quality assurance requirements shall be as specified in the latest edition of the Department’ s publication titled Application of Quality Assurance Specifications for Embankment and Base Course. When not specified, any of the following types may be used:

Obtain the material to be stabilized from outside right -of-way limits except as provided in 106.02.3 . The engineer will take samples from the roadway or stockpile in accordance with the Material Sampling Manual. The District Laboratory Engineer will approve materials prior to blending and the final product. Acceptance of soils with organic contents betwe en 2 to 5 percent may be allowed based on determination of increased cement percent ages in accordance with DOTD TR 432 Method B or C, whichever is applicable, using the design compressive strength criteria listed for stabilization. Maximum cement rate allowed will be 14 percent by volume. Perform the laboratory testing specified above at no expense to the Department . The laboratory used must be approved by the Materials Engineer Administrator. Take samples in the presence of the engineer in accordance with the Material Sampling Manual.

303.01 DESCRIPTION. Scarify, pulverize, blend, shape, and stabilize
roadbed material with portland cement, blended hydraulic cement, or portland blast -furnace slag cement in accordance wit h the lines, grades, thickness, and sections established or shown on the plans. Cement stabilization and cement treatment is primarily for existing roadbed materials. When specified, furnish and place materials under different pay items to be stabilized or treated in accordance with this section. In areas that are inaccessible for mixing and compacting in turnouts and crossovers, and in other isolated or irregular areas, portland cement concrete complying with Section 901 or asphalt concrete complying with Section 502 may be used in lieu of the specified base course material with approval. If using asphalt or portland cement concrete, the top half of the base thickness shall be asphalt or portland cement concrete. If used, portland cement concrete shall be a minimum thickness of 6 inches. The remaining thickness shall be the same type and construction as the top layer of embankment, treated layer, or subgrade. Place, consolidate, finish, and cure concrete as directed in accordance with Section 706 . Remove and satisfactorily dispose of existing materials as required to accommodate placement of the portland cement concrete or asphalt concrete at no direct pay. Dispose of excess material in accordance with 202.02 . Submit a dust control plan to address weather, sight clearance, operational procedures, traffic control, and any other project specific concerns. Failure to maintain sight clearance will result in the engineer stopping contractor operations. The Department will identify dust sensitive areas in the plans. In these specific areas, the dust control plan must also includ e environmental requirements. Quality assurance requirements shall be as specified in the latest edition of the Department’s publication titled Application of Quality Assurance Specifications for Embankment and Base Course.
303.01.1 Cement Stabilization: Cement stabilization is primarily
used for existing roadbed materials, typically 8.5 inches thick, unless specified otherwise. The design compressive strength criteria for cement
