Aggregate

803.1General

1 Before producing aggregate, remove vegetation, topsoil, and overburden from the pit area to be used. Ensure that the materials are free of deleterious substances and do not contain an excess of thin, flat, elongated, soft, or disintegrated pieces. Ensure that aggregates for plant mix base, pavement, wearing course, microsurfacing, and chip seal do not have adherent films of clay or other matter that could prevent thorough coating with asphalt.

2 When crushed aggregate is specified for subbases, bases, or plant mix pavements, crush boulders with diameters up to 30 in [750 mm] and distribute uniformly throughout the material.

3 The department defines a gradation requirement as the percentage of material by weight [mass] that passes through a laboratory sieve with square openings and of a size or designation in accordance with AASHTO M 92 (ASTM E 11). The department defines “coarse aggregate” as material retained on a No. 4 [4.75 mm] sieve and “fine aggregate” as material that passes through a No. 4 [4.75 mm] sieve.

4 For quarried aggregate, material rejected during primary crushing may be used in subbase or crushed base, provided the combined material meets applicable specifications; dispose of other rejected material as directed by the engineer. If quarrying from an available or mandatory source listed in the contract, crush the quarried material with a primary crusher to 4 in [100 mm] or less, without allowing more than 5 percent to pass through a 1-inch [25 mm] sieve.
