418-1 Description
This work shall consist of furnishing and installing joint adhesive in accordance with the contract documents and as directed by the Engineer.
418-2 Materials
Use a product which appears on the NYSDOT Approved List under ASPHALT PAVEMENT JOINT ADHESIVE (705 -19) meeting the requirements of §705-19.
418-3 Construction Details
418-3.01 General . Furnish all equipment that is necessary to clean the construction joint and to apply the
joint adhesive. Use equipment meeting the description and/or performance requirements described herein and approved by the Engineer. Apply the joint adhesive to the construction joints.
418-3 02
NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Sections 200 - 599 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS (USC) January 1, 202 4 Volume 2 418-3.02 Joint Preparation . Prepare longitudinal and transverse construction joints as discussed below and place adjacent asphalt pavement on the same day that the joint adhesive is applied. Use a high pressure air lance to thoroughly clean the joint surface of dust, dirt, foreign material, sand and any other extraneous materials immediately prior to applying the joint adhesive. Install suitable traps or devices on the compressed air equipment to prevent moistur e and oil from contaminating the joint surfaces. Maintain these devices and see that they are functioning properly. Protect the public from potentially objectionable and/or hazardous airborne debris.
418-3.03 Joint Adhesive. Heat and melt the joint adhesive in a melter constructed either as a double
boiler filled with a heat -transfer medium between the inner and outer shells, or with internal tubes or coils carrying joint adhesive through a heated oil bath and into a heated d ouble wall hopper. The melter will be equipped with separate thermometers to indicate the temperature of the heat transfer medium and the joint adhesive material, positive temperature controls, and with a mechanical agitator or a re circulation pump to assure a homogeneous blend of the joint adhesive. Check the discharge temperature of the joint adhesive with a non -contact infrared thermometer or other suitable thermometer. Discharge the joint adhesive at the manufacturer's recommended application temperature and maintain the joint adhesive at ± 10°F of the application temperature indicated on the material packaging. Applying joint adhesive is not permitted if the melter and discharge temperatures do not meet the requirements described above. Equip the discharge hose with a thermostatically controlled heating apparatus or insulate it to maintain the proper joint adhesive application temperature. Holster the discharge hose to the melter if it is not thermostatically heat controlled. Circulate th e joint adhesive from the discharge hose and the melter to maintain the proper joint adhesive application temperature. Do not use joint adhesive material that has been heated beyond the safe heating temperature. If the manufacturer's recommendations allow the joint adhesive to be reheated or heated in excess of six hours, recharge the melter with fresh material amounting t o at least 20 percent of the volume of the material remaining in the melter.
418-3.04 Application . Apply the joint adhesive when surface temperature is 40°F and rising. Use an
applicator wand fitted with a sealing shoe to strike -off the adhesive. Strike -off the joint adhesive to provide a 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch thick band. The finished bands are to be a pproved by the Engineer.
A.Wedge Joints. Apply the joint adhesive to the entire vertical face and the upper 2 inches of the wedge joint.
B.Butt Joints. Apply the joint adhesive to the entire vertical face of the butt joint. The joint adhesive will be considered cured when construction and/or vehicular traffic does not track or pick up the material. Reapply joint adhesive to any areas damaged by construction and/or vehicular traffic prior to placing the adjacent asphalt paveme nt.
418-4 Method of Measurement
This work will be measured as the number of linear feet of joint adhesive satisfactorily furnished and installed.
418-5 Basis of Payment
The unit price bid shall include the cost of furnishing all labor, materials, and equipment necessary to satisfactorily complete the work.
