5.Other methods approved by the Engineer. Contain and dispose of all the removal debr is.
D.Removal of Existing Markings . When placing epoxy markings in the same place as existing pavement markings, remove at least 95 percent of the existing pavement markings. Use a removal method that results in little or no color and texture changes in t he surrounding pavement.
E.Preparation Area.
1.Lines. Prepare an area that is the width of the new pavement marking, or existing line, plus 1 inch (25 mm) on each side and the length of broken lines plus 12 inches (300 mm) on each end.
2.Arrows, Letters, and Symbols. When cleaning for letters and symbols, prepare an area that is sufficiently large to accommodate the new marking, or to remove the existing marking.

646.05 Application. Apply epoxy only when the surface is clean and dry and

when the p avement and air temperature are above 50 ºF (10 ºC). Transfer the entire contents of each material container to the striper tanks. Keep the epoxy thoroughly mixed at all times during application. Before any application, test and record the pavement surface temperature, air temperature. Retest and record every 4 hours of operation. Demonstrate to the Engineer the testing devices including DLS are accurate and operational. Apply epoxy uniformly to the surface to be marked at a rate specified below. To achieve the rate, ensure that the thickness of the applied epoxy is 20 mils (0.51 mm). 20 Mil Thickness Line Width (inch) 4 6 8 12 24 Gallon per Mile of Line Solid Line 22 33 44 66 132 Broken Line 5.5 8.25 11 16.5 33 Dotted Line 5.5 8.25 11 16.5 33 Areas, Symbols, Words 1.25 gallon per 100 square feet 646.07 647 0.51 mm Thickness Line Width (mm) 100 150 200 300 600 Liter per Kilometer of Line Solid Line 50 75 100 150 300 Broken Line 12.5 19 25 38 75 Dotted Line 12.5 19 25 38 75 Areas, Symbols, Words 0.51 L/m² Do not dilute the epoxy. Apply enough glass beads to the uncured epoxy so that the beads completely fill the epoxy film from the film -pavement interface to the top surface of the film to the extent that there are loose beads on the surface of the uncured line. Apply glass beads at a minimum rate of 31 pounds per 100 square feet (15 kg per 10 m2) of epoxy to achieve uniform retroreflectivity. Drop glass beads onto the epoxy in a double -drop system with the large gradation (Size I) first and the regu lar gradation (Size II) second in the same pass of the equipment. Apply the beads in equal amounts by weight. Cease operations when any of the following conditions are observed:

648.01 Description. This work consists of furnishing and applying spray

thermoplastic pavement markings according to Item 641, 740.01, 740.09, 740.10, and the additional requirements specified below.

648.02 Materials . Furnish materials conforming to:

Spray Thermoplastic Pavement Marking .............. 740.10 Glass beads, Type C ................................ .............. 740.09 The Engineer may obtain random samples from the application equipment. Furnish the manufacturer’s identification information for the sampled materials. The Department will test the quality assurance s ample for conformance to the manufacturer’s production ranges. Samples not meeting the manufacturer’s production ranges will require the Contractor to re -apply, at his expense, any markings using that sample. All other untested batches will become not appr oved materials and will either require testing or re -application. Do not apply material that has exceeded the manufacturer’s shelf life. Do not use glass beads that are wet.

648.03 Equipment. Equip all spray thermoplastic pavement marking trucks for

center line, lane line and edge line markings with a computerized Data Logging System (DLS), including a cab mounted display which shows the actual bead application rate. For center line, lane line and edge line markings applied with truck - mounted equipment, w hen the length of marking exceeds 0.5 miles (0.8 km) of continuous line equivalent, document the following with the DLS: Measure and record application vehicle speed to the nearest 0.1 mph (0.16 km/h). Measure and record pavement surface temperature. Measure and record air temperature. Measure and record spray thermoplastic temperature in the kettle and at the point of application. 648.04 651 Record as a separate DLS report line entry the above information for each route section painted, when the length of marki ng exceeds 0.5 miles (0.8 km) of continuous line equivalent. A route section is defined as one direction of a contiguous section of highway (without breaks) with the same route number designation. If the DLS equipment fails finish that day’s work only and resume when the DLS equipment is working. The Department will provide a standard DLS spreadsheet, which prescribes the correct DLS report format and content prior to beginning of work. Each DLS shall have an annual calibration of all mechanical and elec trical components and its software function and output confirmed by the DLS manufacturer or their designated representative. Evidence of the annual calibration is shown by carrying a signed and dated stamp or seal affixed to the inside of the driver’s door of each striper. Use application equipment that includes a kettle for melting the spray thermoplastic and maintaining it at the proper temperature. Equip the kettle with a thermostat to control the temperature of the melted spray thermoplastic and to prevent overheating. Use equipment that continuously mixes and agitates the molten spray thermoplastic. Ensure that the parts of the equipment that convey the spray thermoplastic from the kettle to the application point maintain it at the required temperature . Attach an automatic bead dispenser to the equipment so that the beads are immediately and uniformly dispensed over the marking surface. Equip the bead dispenser with an automatic cut -off control synchronized with the cut -off of the spray thermoplastic m aterial. Ensure that the application equipment applies lines with a square end and can apply broken lines. Furnish application equipment for applying spray thermoplastic markings that produces different widths of lines. Use equipment that ensures uniformity in the thickness and width of lines. Use equipment that forms lines 8 inches (200 mm) wide or less by one application pass.

648.04 Surface Preparation. Before applying spray thermoplastic the pavement

surfaces must be clean, dust free, and completely dry. Test for moisture using the following test procedures, if needed as directed by the Engineer: MOISTURE TEST Tape a 12 inch (300 mm) square sheet of thin plastic to the road surface, sealing all edges. After 15 minu tes examine the side of the sheet facing the road surface. If more than a sparse amount of moisture is present, do not apply spray thermoplastic. Apply spray thermoplastic to new pavement, over existing thermoplastic, or over one application of paint. D o not apply spray thermoplastic over epoxy, polyester, or preformed markings. Remove poorly adhering, flaking and loose markings and curing compounds. Use an air blast, or manual or mechanical broom to prepare 648.05 652 surfaces. When more effort is needed to obtain a surface free from adhering, flaking and loose markings and curing compounds, use water blasting or mechanical removal.

648.05 Application . If applying spray thermoplastic to pavements that are less

than six months old, ensure that both the pavement sur face and the ambient air temperature at the time of application are not less than 50 °F (10 °C) and rising. However, if applying spray thermoplastic to pavements that are older than six months, ensure that both the pavement surface and the ambient air temp erature at the time of application are not less than 70 °F (21 °C) and rising. Ensure that the temperature of spray thermoplastic at the point of application is at least 375 °F (191 °C) and not more than 425 °F (218 °C). Apply spray thermoplastic at a thi ckness of 45 mil (1.15 mm) at the following rates: 45 Mil Thickness Line width (inch) 4 6 8 12 Pounds per Mile of Line Solid Line 762-886 1143 -1329 1524 -1772 2286 -2658 Broken or Dotted Line 191-222 286-332 381-443 572-666 1.15 mm Thickness Line Width (mm) 100 150 200 300 Kilogram per Kilometer of Line Solid Line 209-242 313-364 417-485 626-728 Broken or Dotted Line 52-61 79-92 104-121 158-184 Mechanically apply glass beads to the wet spray thermoplastic surface so that the beads are embedded and retained and provide uniform retroreflectivity in the surface. Apply beads at a minimum rate of 10 pounds per 100 square feet (4.9 kg per 10 m²) of spr ay thermoplastic surface area. Use primer when required by the manufacturer. Apply primer according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. For each route section on the DLS report, the Engineer will compute the amount of spray thermoplastic marking mater ial and glass beads applied. The Department will reduce the contract price in direct proportion to the percent of deficiency of spray thermoplastic marking material or glass beads as specified in 648.05, up to 20 percent for each material deficiency. The D epartment will only use the greater deficiency of marking material or glass beads to compute the deduction. If the deficiency of spray thermoplastic marking material or glass beads is 20 percent or more, the Department will consider the work unsatisfactor y. In addition, the Engineer will consider as unsatisfactory materials applied outside the temperature or application requirements in 648.05 without written approval of the Engineer. Replace or reapply spray thermoplastic markings and glass beads in all sections determined to be unsatisfactory as determined by the Engineer . 648.06 653 Furnish the Engineer daily, biweekly and final DLS reports conforming to 648.03, and additional reports indicating material type and quantities in pounds (kilograms) of spray thermoplastic materials used, as per 641.04.
