213Placement of Millings Beneath Guardrail

213.01 Description.

This work includes the placement of asphalt millings from cold planing operations at all guardrail locations less than 2 ft from the edge of the existing pavement.

213.02 Materials.

Millings include asphalt material ground or crushed so that 100 percent of the material passes a 1-in. sieve. Ensure that the millings are free of debris, topsoil, and soil clumps.

213.03 Construction Methods.

Obtain millings from stockpiled locations on the Project site or off-site sources. Do not use millings from off-site sources unless authorized by the Engineer. Ensure that the millings are free of debris, topsoil, and soil clumps. Unless otherwise direc ted by the Engineer, place millings according to the following: • For guardrail installations 4 ft or less from the face of guardrail to the edge of pavement, place the millings from 1 ft behind the post to the edge of pavement to a depth of 5 in. • For guardrail installations greater than 4 ft from the face of guardrail to the edge of pavement, place the millings for a width of 2 ft on center with the guardrail post to a depth of 5 in. Grade beneath the guardrail to ensure that the finished surface of the millings is flush with the asphalt berm or edge of pavement and shaped, compacted, and sloped to drain away from the pavement. Do not dismantle the guardrail to perform any work associated with this item. Restrict the stockpiling of millings to approved, on-site locations. Do not stockpile millings on the roadway shoulder or adjacent to a travel lane. Excavate and remove the material beneath the guardrail, in compliance with the SESC, to ensure that damage to the guardrail does not occur. Dispose of all material removed from beneath the guardrail, including excess millings.

213.04 Method of Measurement.

Placement of Millings Beneath Guardrail will be measured by the linear feet of guardrail for which millings were placed.
