737.01 DESCRIPTION. Furnish and apply reflective white or yellow
paint for pavement striping in accordance with plan details, the MUTCD , and these specifications.
737.02 MATERIALS. Traffic paint shall be waterborne and comply with
1015.12 Glass beads for drop-on application shall comply with 1015.13 .
737.03 EQUIPMENT . Selection of proper equipment to produce
satisfactory results shall be the responsibility of the contractor.
737.04 CONSTRUCTION REQUIRE MENTS. Pavement striping shall
be 4 inches in width on all routes. Striping widths for gore markin gs and turning lanes shall be 8 inches unless noted otherwise on the plans. All lines shall have clean edges. Paint for curbs and islands may be applied by machine or hand methods as accepted by the engineer. Apply all striping on pavement prior to opening to traffic, except when rain or other unavoidable occurrences prevent marking the pavement, in which case mark the pavement as soon as conditions permit. The requirements of 713.07 shall govern over the above mentioned application requirements.
737.04.1 Surface Preparation : Clean surfaces, including ramps
and gore areas, to be striped of materials that may reduce adhesion of paint to pavement. Remove all flaking or peeling material to the satisfaction of the engineer by blast cleaning or other approved methods, which do not damage the surface. Blast cleaning equipment must have positive cutoff controls. Keep surfaces clean and dry at the time of paint application.
737.04.2 Weather Limitations : Do not paint striping when
pavement surface is wet or damp, when air is foggy or misty, when air or surface temperature is below 50°F, or when wind or ot her conditions create a dust film on the clean pavement surface before striping can be applied or causes displacement of striping material.
737.04.3 Application : Use the longitudinal joint or existing
centerline stripe to determine the location of the centerline of new striping.
