928 — HIGH FRICTION SURFACE TREATMENT 2026 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIALS CATEGORY 900 MATERIALS SECTION 928 — HIGH FRICTION SURFACE TREATMENT
928.01 Polymeric Resin Binder. Provide a resin binder system, meeting the requirements of
Table 1, Low Modulus Epoxy; Table 2, Methyl Methacrylate (MMA); and Table 3, Polyester Resin, of AASHTO Standard MP 41-22, recommended by the manufacturer as suitable for use on the intended pavement surface. All materials shall be virgin; free of secondary components, volatile solvents, and external/conventional flexibilizers. Component batches shall be interchangeable. Submit product data sheets and specifications from the manufacturer showing instructions, application recommendations and methods, and product properties. Submit certified copies of laboratory test reports per formulation, documenting that the resin binder system meets the requirements mentioned above. Laboratory tests shall be conducted at facilities that are AASHTO resource (AMRL) or CCRL certified. Submit proof of AMRL/CCRL accreditation for approval prior to submitting laboratory results. Upon request, provide a sample for each lot/batch. Failure to comply with the specified material properties shall result in rejection of the material lot/batch provided. The test results shall be within 6 months of the date of Aware of the Project and must be from the same batches used in construction. The manufacturer shall maintain and make available upon request complete test results of sampling, testing, actions taken to correct problems and quality control inspection results.
928.02 Calcined Bauxite Aggregate. The material shall be clean, dry, free from foreign matter,
and conform to the requirements in Table 928A. The sample submitted for testing shall be from the same source used for the project. Provide a 35 lb. bag of aggregate meeting the requirements in Table 928A to OMT’s Soils and Aggregate Technology Division as specified. Deliver the aggregate to the site in clearly labeled packaging that protects the aggregate from contamination and from exposure to moisture. 928 — HIGH FRICTION SURFACE TREATMENT 2026 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIALS TABLE 928A AGGREGATE REQUIREMENTS TEST REQUIREMENTS TEST METHOD Resistance to Degradation – Micro-Deval 3% Maximum Loss ASTM D7428 Gradation 100% Passing No. 4 95.0% minimum Passing No. 6 5.0% maximum Passing No. 16 T 27 Apparent Specific Gravity 3.1 minimum T 84 Sodium Sulfate Soundness 12% maximum T 104 Moisture Content 0.2% maximum T 255 Aluminum Oxide 87% minimum C 25 Dynamic Friction Value (20 km/hr) 0.9 Minimum at 0 cycles and 0.7 Minimum at 100,000 cycles on sample with a mean profile depth of 0.9 mm to 1.4 mm per E 2157.
