- 153 - SECTION 301 -- GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
301.01 General
1.Compaction requirements are shown in the contract.
2.The Contractor shall be responsi ble for the repair and restoration of any roadbed damage, loss of stability, or rutting caused by the hauling operations.
3.Maintenance of the granular f ill, base course, foundation course, and subgrade for both roadway and shoulders shall be the responsibility of the Contractor until overlying pavement is complete and accepted by the Engineer. This maintenance shall be cons idered subsidiary to the items for which direct payment is provided.
301.02 Equipment
1.Operation:
a.All equipment shall be kept in satisfactory working condition.
b.Equipment shall be operated within the manufacturer's specifications.
c.The Contractor shall perfo rm the tests and calibrations on all equipment. In the event problems are encountered during the tests and calibrations, the Contractor shall arrange for a trained technician or company representative to make the necessa ry repairs or adjustments to the equipment. Calibrations shall be made as often as is deemed necessary by the Engineer, at no additional cost to the Department.
2.The hauling equipment shall consist of trucks equipped for dumping material into spreader boxes or in a windrow. They shall be constructed and maintained to prevent loss of materials during hauling operations.
3.Water Distributors:
a.The distributor equipment sh all provide accurate and uniform distribution of water. The control valves shall close fully to prevent leakage.
b.Water will be measured through a meter or with calibrated tanks in gallons (liters). The weight of the water can also be measured and converted to Megagallons (kiloliters).
4.The equipment used for profiling the subgrades, base courses, and foundation courses shall be capable of meeting Construction Methods.
5.Only compacting equipment and methods which will consistently produce the compaction specified thro ughout the depth of the compacted lifts shall be used. Compacting equipment which produces laminations within the compacted lifts will not be allowed.
6.Equipment used to spread the material shall be capable of distributing the material uniformly.
7.Equipment for weighing loaded trucks shall comply with requirements given in Subsection 503.03.
