Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The amount of the bid for comparison purposes will be the total of all items. The bidder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each lump sum item a total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that purpose. In the case of unit basis items,the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item. In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail, except as provided in(a)or(b),as follows: (a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted,or is the same as the amount as the entry in the item total column,then the amount set forth in the-item total column for the item shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price; (b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor of ten, one hundred, etc., or one-tenth, or one-hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the entered unit price or item total,' whichever most closely approximates percentagewise the unit price or item total in the Agency's Final Estimate'of cost. If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable,or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular. Likewise if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear, readable total bid is provided. Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be' ignored and have no mathematical significance in establishing any unit price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will be interpreted according to the number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement. Cents symbols also have no significance in establishing any unit price or item total since all figures are assumed to be expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of a dollar. Bids on lump sum- items shall be item totals only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the item total,the items total shall prevail. The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to cover every omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity which may occur in a bid. Any situation not specifically provided for will be determined in the discretion of the Agency,and that discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed by. the Agency to best protect the public interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work.. The decision of Agency respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid,shall be final. It is further expressly agreed by and between the parties hereto that should there be any conflict between the terms of this instrument and the bid or proposal of said Contractor,then this instrument shall control and nothing herein shall be considered as an acceptance of said terms'of said proposal conflicting herewith. By my signature hereunder, as Contractor,I certify that I am aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for worker's compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that code, and I.will comply with such provisions before commencing the.performance of the work of this contract. The improvement contemplated in the performance of this contract is an improvement over which the State of California shall exercise general supervision. The;,State of California, therefore, shall have the right to 3 assume full and direct control over this contract whenever the State of California, at its sole discretion, shall f determine that its responsibility to the United States so requires. It is understood and agreed that the quantities of work under each item are approximate only,.being given for a basis of comparison of proposal, and the right is reserved to the Agency to increase or decrease the amount of work under any item as may be required, in accordance with provisions set forth in the specifications for this project. It is further understood and agreed that the total amount of money set forth for each item of work or as the total amount bid for the project, does not constitute an;.agreement to pay a lump sum for the work unless it specifically so states. It is hereby agreed that.the undersigned, as bidder, shall furnish a Payment Bond in an amount equal to one hundred percent of the total amount of this proposal and a Faithful Performance Bond to be one hundred percent of the total amount of this proposal, to the Agency and at no.expense to said Agency, executed by a responsible surety acceptable.to said Agency in the event that this proposal is accepted by said Agency. If this proposal shall be accepted and the undersigned shall fails to contract as aforesaid and to give the two bonds in the sums to be determined as aforesaid, with surety satisfactory to the Board of Supervisors and proper evidence of insurance in accordance with the contract requirements within eight (8) days, not including Saturdays, Sundays, ;and legal holidays, after the bidder has received notice from the public agency that the contract is ready for signature,the Board of Supervisors may, in its discretion, award the contract to the next highestbidder and declare the successful bidder's security F. forfeited, as provided in Public Contract Code section 5106.

The various strengths required are specified in these specifications or the special provisions or are shown on the plans. • The compressive strength of concrete will be determined from test cylinders that have been fabricated from concrete sampled in conformance with the requirements of California Test 539. Test cylinders will be molded and initially field cured in conformance with California Test 540. Test cylinders will be cured and tested after receipt at the testing laboratory in.conformance with the requirements of California Test 521. A strength test shall consist of the average strength of 2 cylinders fabricated from material taken from a single load of concrete, except that, if any cylinder should show evidence of improper sampling, molding, or testing, that cylinder shall be discarded and the strength test shall consist of the strength of the remaining cylinder. • When concrete compressive strength is specified as a prerequisite to applying loads or stresses to a concrete structure or member, test cylinders for other than steam cured concrete will be cured in conformance with Method 1 of California Test 540. The compressive strength of concrete determined for these purposes will be evaluated on the basis of individual tests. • When concrete is designated by 28-day compressive strength rather than by cementitious material content; the concrete strength to be used as a basis for acceptance of other than steam cured concrete will be determined from cylinders cured in conformance with Method 1 of California Test 540. If the result of a single compressive strength test at the maximum age specified or allowed is below the specified strength but is 95 percent or more of the specified strength, the Contractor shall make corrective changes, subject to approval of the Engineer, in-the.mix proportions or in the concrete fabrication procedures, before placing additional concrete, and shall pay to the State $10 for each in-place cubic yard of concrete represented by the deficient test. If the result of a single compressive strength test at the maximum age specified or allowed is below 95 percent of the specified strength, but is 85 percent or more of the specified strength, the Contractor shall make the corrective changes specified above, and shall pay to the State $15 for each in-place cubic yard of concrete represented by the deficient test. In addition, such corrective changes shall be made when the compressive strength of concrete tested at 7 days indicates, in the judgment of the Engineer,that the concrete will 66 not attain the required compressive strength at the maximum age specified or allowed. Concrete represented by a single test that indicates a compressive strength of less than 85 percent of the specified 28-day compressive strength will be rejected in conformance with the provisions in Section 6-1.04, "Defective Materials." If the test result indicates that the compressive strength at the maximum curing age specified or allowed is below the specified strength, but is 85 percent or more of the specified strength, payments to the State as required above shall be made, unless the Contractor, at the Contractor's expense, obtains and submits evidence acceptable to the Engineer that the strength of the concrete placed in the work meets or exceeds the specified 28-day compressive strength. If the test result indicates a compressive strength at the maximum curing age specified or allowed below 85 percent, the concrete represented by that test will be rejected, unless the Contractor, at the Contractor's expense, obtains and submits evidence acceptable to the Engineer that the strength and quality of the concrete placed in the work are acceptable. If the evidence consists of tests made on cores taken from the work, the cores shall be obtained and tested in conformance with the requirements in ASTM Designation: C 42. . • No single compressive strength test shall represent more than 320 cubic yards. • If a precast concrete member is steam cured, the compressive strength of the concrete will be determined from test cylinders that have been handled and stored in conformance with Method 3 of California Test 540. The compressive strength of steam cured concrete will be evaluated on the basis of individual tests representing specific portions of production. If the concrete is designated by 28-day compressive strength rather than by cementitious material content, the concrete shall be considered to be acceptable whenever its compressive strength reaches the specified 28-day compressive strength provided that strength is reached in not more than the maximum number of days specified or allowed after the member is cast. • When concrete is specified by compressive strength, prequalification of materials, mix proportions, mixing equipment, and procedures proposed for. use will be required prior to placement .of the concrete. Prequalification shall be accomplished by the submission of acceptable certified test data or trial batch reports by the Contractor. Prequalification data shall be based on the use of materials, mix proportions, mixing equipment,procedures, and size of batch proposed for use in the work. • Certified test data, in order to be. acceptable, shall indicate that not less than 90 percent of at least.20 consecutive tests exceed the specified strength at the maximum number of cure days specified or allowed, and none of those tests are less than 95 percent of specified strength. Strength tests included in the data shall be the most recent tests made on concrete of the proposed mix design and all shall have been made within one year of the proposed use of the concrete. • Trial batch test reports, in order to be acceptable, shall indicate that the average compressive strength of 5 consecutive concrete cylinders, taken from a single batch, at not more than 28 days (or the maximum age allowed) after molding shall be at least 580 pounds per square inch greater than the specified 28-day compressive strength, and no individual cylinder shall have a strength less than the specified strength at the maximum age specified or allowed. Data contained in the report shall be from trial batches that were produced within one year of the proposed use of specified strength concrete in the project. Whenever air-entrainment is required, the air content of trial 67• batches shall be equal to or greater than the air content specified for the concrete without reduction due to tolerances. • Tests shall be performed in conformance with either the appropriate California Test methods or the comparable ASTM test methods. Equipment employed in testing shall.be in good condition and shall be properly calibrated. If the tests are performed during the life of the contract, the Engineer shall be notified sufficiently in advance of performing the tests in order to witness the test procedures. • The certified test data and trial batch test reports shall include the following information: A. Date of mixing. B. Mixing equipment and procedures used. C. The size of batch in cubic yards and the weight,type, and source of all ingredients used. D. Penetration or slump (if the concrete will be placed under water or placed in cast- in-place concrete piles)of the concrete. E. The air content of the concrete if an air-entraining admixture is used. F. The age at time of testing and strength of all concrete cylinders tested. • Certified test data and trial batch test reports shall be signed by an official of the firm that performed the tests. • When approved by the Engineer, concrete from trial batches may be used in the work at locations where concrete of a lower quality is required and the concrete will be paid for as the type or class of concrete required at that location. • After materials, mix proportions, mixing equipment, and procedures for concrete have been prequalified for use, additional prequalification by testing of trial batches will be required prior to making changes that, in the judgment of the Engineer, could result in a strength of concrete below that specified. • The Contractor's attention is directed to the time required to test trial batches and the Contractor shall be responsible for production of trial batches at a sufficiently early date so that the progress of the work is not delayed. • When precast concrete members are manufactured at the plant of an established manufacturer of precast concrete members, the mix proportions of the concrete shall be determined by the Contractor, and a trial batch and prequalification of the materials, mix proportions, mixing equipment, and procedures will not be required. 90-10 MINOR CONCRETE 90-10.01 GENERAL • Concrete for minor structures, slope paving, curbs, sidewalks and other concrete work, when designated as minor concrete on the plans, in the specifications, or in the contract item, shall conform to the provisions specified herein. • The Engineer, at the Engineer's discretion, will inspect and test the facilities, materials and methods for producing the concrete to ensure that minor concrete of the quality suitable for use in the work is obtained. 68 90-10.02 MATERIALS • Minor concrete shall conform to the following requirements: 90-10.02A CEMENTITIOUS MATERIAL • Cementitious material shall conform to the provisions in Section 90-1.01, "Description." 90-10.02B AGGREGATE • Aggregate shall be clean and free from deleterious coatings, clay balls, roots, and other extraneous materials. • Use of crushed concrete or reclaimed aggregate is acceptable only if the aggregate satisfies all aggregate requirements.

The Contractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the award and performance of subcontracts. Bidders shall be fully informed in respect to the requirements of the DBE Regulations. The DBE Regulations in their entirety are incorporated herein by this reference. Attention is directed to the following matters: A. A DBE must be a small business concern as defined pursuant to Section 3 of U.S. Small Business Act and relevant regulations promulgated pursuant thereto; B. A DBE may participate as a prime contractor, subcontractor,joint venture partner with a prime or.subcontractor, vendor of material or supplies, or as a trucking company; C. A DBE joint venture partner must be responsible for specific contract items of work, or clearly defined portions thereof. Responsibility means actually performing, managing and supervising the work with its own forces. The DBE joint venture partner must share in the capital contribution, control, management, risks and profits of the joint venture commensurate with its ownership interest. ; D. A DBE must perform a commercially useful function, i.e., must be responsible for the execution of a distinct element of the work and must carry out its responsibility by actually performing, managing and supervising the work; E. DBEs must be certified by the California Unified Certification Program (CUCP). Listings of DBEs certified by the CUCP are available from the following sources: 1.The Caltran's "Civil Rights"Web site at: http://www.dot.ca.goi,/hq/bep. 2. The Caltran's DBE Directory. This Directory may be obtained from the Department of Transportation, Materiel Operations Branch, Publication 78 Distribution Unit, 1900 Royal Oaks Drive, Sacramento, California 95815, Telephone: (916)445-3520 F. When reporting DBE participation, bidders may count the cost of materials or supplies purchased from DBEs as follows: 1. If the materials or supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer, 100 percent of,the cost of the materials or supplies. A DBE manufacturer is a firm that.operates or maintains a factory or establishment that produces, on the premises, the materials, supplies, articles, or equipment required under the contract and of the general character described by the specifications. 2. If the materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE regular dealer, count 60 percent of the cost of the materials or supplies. A DBE regular dealer is.a firm that owns, operates, or maintains a store, warehouse, or other establishment in which the materials, supplies, articles or equipment of the general character described by the specifications and required under the contract are bought,kept in stock, and regularly sold or leased to the public in the usual course of business. To be a DBE regular dealer, the firm must be an established, regular business that engages, as its principal business and under its own name, in the purchase and sale or lease of the products in question. A person may be a DBE regular dealer in such bulk items as petroleum products, steel, cement, gravel, stone, or asphalt, without owning, operating, or maintaining a place of business as provided in this paragraph F.2. if the person both owns and operates distribution equipment for the products. Any supplementing of regular dealers' own distribution equipment shall be by a long-term lease agreement and not on an ad hoc or contract-by-contract basis. Packagers, brokers, manufacturers' representatives, .or other persons who arrange or expedite transactions are not DBE regular dealers within the meaning of this paragraph F.2. 3. If the DBE is neither a manufacturer nor a regular dealer, count only the entire amount of fees or commissions charged for assistance in the procurement of the materials and supplies, or fees or transportation charges for the delivery of materials or supplies required on a job site, provided the fees are reasonable and not excessive as compared with fees chargedfor similar services. G. When reporting DBE participation, bidders may count the participation of DBE trucking companies as follows: 1. The DBE must be responsible for the management and supervision of the entire trucking operation for which it is responsible on a particular contract. 2. The DBE must itself own and operate at least one fully licensed, insured, and operational truck used on the contract; 3. The DBE receives credit for the.total value of the transportation services it provides on the contract using trucks its owns, insures, and operates using drivers it employs; 79 4. The DBE may lease trucks from another DBE firm, including an owner- operator who is certified as a DBE. The DBE who leases trucks from another DBE receives credit for the total value of the transportation services the lessee DBE provides on the contract; 5. The DBE may also lease trucks from a non-DBE firm, including an owner- operator. The DBE who leases trucks from a non-DBE is entitled to credit only for the fee or commission it receives as a result of the lease arrangement. The DBE does not receive credit for the total value of the-transportation services provided by the lessee, since these services are not provided by a DBE; 6. For the purposes of this paragraph G, a lease must indicate that the DBE has exclusive use of and control over the truck. This does not preclude the leased truck from working for others during the term of the lease with the consent of the DBE, so long as the lease gives the DBE absolute priority for use of the leased truck. Leased trucks must display the name and identification number of the DBE. H. Bidders are encouraged to'use services offered by financial institutions owned and controlled by DBEs.

The State maintains a list of sources of fine and coarse aggregate that have been approved for use with a reduced amount of supplementary cementitious material in the total amount of cementitious material to be used. A source of aggregate will be considered for addition to the approved list if the producer of the aggregate submits to the Transportation Laboratory certified test results from a qualified testing laboratory that verify the aggregate complies with the requirements. Before the testing starts, the aggregate test shall be registered with the State. A registration number can be obtained by calling (916)227-7228. The registration number shall be used as the identification for the aggregate sample in correspondence with the State. Upon request, a split of the tested sample shall be provided to the State. Approval of aggregate will depend upon compliance with the specifications, based on the certified test results submitted, together with any replicate testing the State may elect to perform. Approval will expire 3 years from the date the most recent registered and evaluated sample was collected from the aggregate source. Qualified testing laboratories shall conform to the following requirements: 1. Laboratories performing ASTM Designation: C 1293 shall participate in the Cement and Concrete Reference Laboratory (CCRL) Concrete Proficiency Sample Program and shall have received a score of 3 or better on each test of the previous 2 sets of concrete samples. 2: Laboratories performing ASTM Designation: C 1260 shall participate in the Cement and Concrete Reference Laboratory (CCRL) Pozzolan Proficiency Sample Program and shall have received a score of 3 or better on the shrinkage and soundness tests of the previous 2 sets of pozzolan samples. 110 Aggregates on the list shall conform to one of the following requirements: 1. When the aggregate is tested in conformance with the requirements in California Test 554 and ASTM Designation: C 1293, the average expansion at one year shall be less than or equal to 0.040 percent; or 2. When the aggregate is tested in conformance with the requirements in California Test 554 and ASTM Designation: C 1260, the average of the expansion at 16 days shall be less than or equal to 0.15 percent. If the aggregates used in the concrete are on the Department's list, the minimum amount of supplementary cementitious material shall conform to the following: 1. If fly ash or natural pozzolan conforming to the provisions in Section 90-2.01C, "Required. Use of Supplementary Cementitious Materials," of the Standard Specifications is used, the minimum amount of supplementary cementitious material shall be 15 percent by weight of the total cementitious material;or 2. If silica fume conforming to the provisions in Section 90-2.01C, "Required Use of Supplementary Cementitious Materials," of the Standard Specifications is used, the minimum amount of supplementary cementitious material shall be 7 percent by weight of the total cementitious material. The limitation on tricalcium silicate (C3S) content in Type II cement specified in Section 90-2.01A, "Cement," of the Standard Specifications shall not apply. The 13"paragraph in Section 90-1.01 "Description"is amended to read: . If any concrete has a cementitious material, portland cement, or mineral admixture content that is less than the minimum required, the concrete shall be removed. However, if the Engineer determines that the concrete is structurally adequate, the concrete may remain in place and the Contractor shall pay to the State $0.50 for each pound of cementitious material,portland cement, or mineral admixture that is less than the minimum required. The Department may deduct the amount from any moneys due, or that may become due, the Contractor under the contract. The deductions will not be made unless the difference between the contents required and those actually provided exceeds the batching tolerances permitted by Section 90-5, "Proportioning." No deductions will be made based on the results of California Test 518. The 7th and 8th paragraphs of Section 90-2.02 "Aggregates", of the Standard Specifications are amended to read: If the results of either or both the Cleanness Value and coarse aggregate grading tests do not meet the requirements specified for "Contract Compliance," the concrete that is represented by the tests shall be removed. However, if the Engineer determines that the concrete is structurally adequate, the.concrete may remain in place, and the Contractor shall pay to the State $7.00 per cubic yard for paving concrete and $11.00 per cubic yard for all other concrete for the concrete represented 11l by these tests and left in place. The Department may deduct the amount from any moneys due, or that may become due,the Contractor under the contract. If the results of either or both the Sand Equivalent and fine aggregate grading tests do not meet the requirements specified for "Contract Compliance," the concrete which is represented by the tests shall be removed. However, if the Engineer determines that the concrete is structurally adequate, the concrete may remain in place, and the Contractor shall pay to the State $7.00 per cubic yard for paving concrete and $11.00 per cubic yard for all other concrete for the concrete represented by these tests and left in place. The Department may deduct the amount from any moneys due, or that may become due,the Contractor under the contract. The fourth-paragraph of Section 90-6.01, "General", is amended as follows: Uniformity of concrete mixtures will be determined by variations in the results of AASHTO Tests T-119-99(Slump Cone)and T-141-97(Sampling)and by variations in the proportion of coarse aggregate as determined by California Test 529. At the Engineer's option, California Test 533 (Penetration) may be used to corroborate other test results. The first paragraph of Section 90-6.06, "Amount of Water and Penetration," is amended to read as follows: The amount of water used in concrete mix shall be regulated so that the consistency of the concrete as determined by AASHTO Tests T-119-99 (Slump Cone) and T- 141-97(Sampling)is within minus 2 inches to plus 1 inch of the slump designated in the mix design. Batches of concrete with a slump outside the range shown shall not be used in the work. At the Engineer's option, California Test 533 may be used in lieu of AASHTO Tests T- 119-99 and T-141-97 or may be used to corroborate the AASHTO test results. The 4`' and 5`h paragraphs of Section 90-9.01 ."General" of the Standard Specifications are superseded by the following: When concrete is designated by 28-day compressive strength rather than by cementitious material content, the concrete strength to be used as a basis for acceptance of other than steam cured concrete will be determined from cylinders cured in conformance with Method 1 of California Test 540. If the result of a single 28-day compressive strength test is below the specified strength, but is 95 percent or more of the specified strength, the Contractor shall, at the Contractor's.expense, make corrective changes, subject to approval of the Engineer, in the mix proportions or in the.concrete fabrication procedures, before placing additional concrete, and shall pay to the State $20.00 per cubic yard of concrete represented by the deficient test. If the 112 result of a single 28-day compressive strength test is below 95 percent of the specified strength, but is 85 percent or more of the specified strength,the Contractor shall make the aforementioned corrections and pay to the State $75.00 per cubic yard of concrete represented by the deficient test. In addition, such corrective changes, subject to the approval of the,Engineer, shall be made when the compressive strength of concrete tested at 7 days is below 70 percent of the required compressive strength at 28 days Concrete represented by a single test that indicates a compressive strength of less than 85 percent of the specified 28-day compressive strength will be rejected in conformance with the provisions in Section 6-1.04, "Defective Materials." If the test result indicates a 28-day compressive strength below the specified strength,.but 85 percent or more of the specified strength, payments to the .State as required above shall be made. If the test result indicates a 28-day compressive strength below 85. percent, the concrete represented by such test will be rejected, unless the Contractor, at his expense, obtains and submits evidence acceptable to the Engineer that the strength and quality of the concrete placed in the work are acceptable. If such evidence consists of test made on cores taken from the work, the cores shall be obtained and tested in accordance with the specifications of ASTM Designation:' C42. If the Contractor submits acceptable evidence that the concrete exceeds 85% of the specified strength,the Contractor shall pay to the State.$75.00 per cubic yard of concrete represented by the testing regardless of a result by the Contractor's retest that exceeds 95% of the specified strength. In all cases, the Contractor shall obtain and submit the evidence to the Engineer _no later than 5 working days after notification bythe State of the State's 28-day compressive strength test results. The Contractor shall be responsible for all cost incurred by the State to obtain,monitor, and/or review evidence submitted by the Contractor. No test taken 5 working days .after notification of the results of the state's 28-day compressive strength test shall be allowed as evidence that the strength and quality'of the concrete is acceptable..'

Full compensation for excavating driveway conforms shall be considered as included in the contract unit prices paid for asphalt concrete and no separate payment will be made therefor. The quantities of aggregate base or aggregate subbase placed as a part of driveway conforms will not be measured. Full compensation for furnishing, placing and compacting aggregate base and aggregate subbase shall be considered as included in the contract prices paid for minor concrete(sidewalk)and no separate payment will be made therefor. The seventh paragraph of section 39-2.02 of the Standard Specifications is replaced with the following: If the results of either or both the aggregate grading and Sand Equivalent tests do not meet the requirements specified for "Contract Compliance," the asphalt concrete or asphalt concrete base which is represented by these tests shall be removed. However, if requested by the Contractor and approved by the Engineer, the asphalt concrete or asphalt concrete base may remain in place and the Contractor shall pay the County $5.00 per ton for the asphalt concrete or asphalt concrete base represented by these test and left in place. The Department may deduct this amount from any moneys due, or that may become due, the Contractor under the contract. If both the aggregate grading and Sand Equivialent do not conform to the "Contract Compliance" requirements, only one adjustment shall apply. The asphalt paver speed shall be set. at a speed that matches the rate of asphalt concrete delivered to the project site to minimize stopping of the asphalt paver and to ensure a smooth and seamless paved surface.

The rolls shall be stored off the ground and uniformly supported to prevent the core from bending. Surface Preparation A minimum of 2 days prior to applying. asphalt binder and pavement reinforcing fabric, all pavement failure repair and asphalt concrete leveling shall be completed as shown on the plans and as directed by the Engineer. If this work is performed within 2 days of applying asphalt binder and pavement reinforcing fabric,the Contractor shall seal the newly paved surfaces by applying a light tack coat of SS-1 emulsion and sand as directed by the Engineer. All cold-planed asphalt concrete conforms and keycuts shall receive a light coat of liquid asphalt at the approximate rate of 0.42 lbs./yd2 (equivalent to 0.05 gal/yd2 at 60° F) prior to placing binder and pavement reinforcing fabric. Prior to applying asphalt binder, all cracks in existing pavement, between '/4-inch and -inch in width, shall be pneumatically cleaned and filled with hot pour rubberized Type 2 crack sealant. Cracks larger than %2-inch in width shall be filled with fine hot mix asphalt concrete. This work shall be done as specified elsewhere in the special provisions. The existing pavement surface shall be dry and free of loose or extraneous material prior to applying the asphalt binder and pavement reinforcing fabric. The Contractor. shall clean the surface by sweeping or other means to remove all loose particles of paving, all dirt and other extraneous material immediately before applying the asphalt binder. 143 Binder and Fabric Placement Applying asphalt binder and placing pavement-reinforcing fabric shall be made only under the following conditions: • the ambient air temperature is above 50°F and rising, and The existing pavement is dry and pavement temperature is 40°F and rising Before placing the pavement reinforcing fabric, an asphalt binder:shall be applied to the surface to receive the pavement reinforcing fabric. The binder shall be Grade PG 70- 10 paving asphalt conforming to Section 92, "Asphalts," of the Standard Specifications and these special provisions. The liquid asphalt shall be spread at an approximate rate of 2.10 lbs./yd2 (equivalent to 0.25 gal/yd2 at 60° F). When the entire pavement surface is cold-planed and not pre-coated as described elsewhere in these special provisions, the binder shall be spread at the approximate rate of 2.52 lbs/yd2(equivalent to 0.30 gal/yd2 at 60°F). The volumetric spread rate shall be adjusted to provide the specified mass spread rate using the conversion table in Section 93, "Liquid Asphalts," of the Standard Specifications for the temperature of the liquid asphalt measured at the distributor truck spray bar. The exact rate will be determined by the Engineer based on the existing pavement surface condition, the fabric asphalt retention value, and the actual asphalt density at spray temperature. No reduction in spread rate shall be allowed for the sole purpose of minimizing fabric pickup by subsequent construction equipment. The binder shall be applied to a width equal to the width of the pavement reinforcing fabric mat plus 4 inches on each side.

No joints shall be lapped with more than two layers of fabric. Transverse joints shall be shingled in the direction of the paving. The Contractor shall control the temperature of the asphalt binder in the distributor truck such that it does not cause damage to the pavement reinforcing fabric due to high binder temperatures at time of fabric placement. If the pavement reinforcing fabric width shrinks in excess of 3%, the temperatures of the asphalt binder shall be considered excessive. (In no case shall the fabric shrinkage cause longitudinal fabric overlaps to be less than 2 inches.) Should this occur, the Contractor shall immediately cease operations and make necessary adjustments as approved by the Engineer before resuming operations. The Contractor's options are to place the liquid asphalt binder at a lower temperature or use separate equipment to place .the pavement reinforcing fabric a sufficient-distance behind the distributor truck to allow the,binder to cool on grade prior to fabric placement. When using separate equipment for placing the pavement reinforcing fabric, it shall be mechanized and disconnected from the liquid asphalt binder distributor truck. It shall be capable of handling full rolls of pavement reinforcing fabric, shall have an adjustable 144 tension bar, and shall have full roll width brooms to initially seat pavement reinforcing fabric and remove air bubbles.

During Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tile installation procedures,ensure adequate safety guidelines are in place and that they are in accordance with the applicable industry and government standards. B. The specifications of the structural embedment flange system and related materials shall be in strict accordance with the contract documents and the guidelines set by their respective manufacturers.Not recommended for asphalt applications. C. The physical characteristics of the concrete shall be consistent with the contract specifications while maintaining a slump range of 4-7 to permit solid placement of the Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tile system. An overly wet mix will cause the the to float. Under these conditions,suitable weights such as 2 concrete blocks or sandbags(25 Ib)shall be placed on each tile. D. Prior to placement of the Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tile system,the contract drawings shall be reviewed. E. The concrete pouring and finishing operations require typical mason's tools,however,a 4'long level with electronic slope readout, 25 Ib.weights,and a large non-marring rubber mallet are specific to the installation of the Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tile system. A vibrating mechanism such as that manufactured by Vibco can be employed,if desired. The vibrating unit should be fixed to a soft base such as wood,at least 1 foot square. F. The factory-installed plastic sheeting must remain in place during the entire installation process to prevent the splashing of concrete onto the finished surface of the tile. G. When preparing to set the tile,it is important that NO concrete be removed in the area to accept the tile. It is imperative that the installation technique eliminates any air voids under the tile. Holes in the file perimeter allow air to escape during the installation process. Concrete will flow through the large holes in each embedment flange on the underside of the tile. This will lock the tile solidly into the cured concrete. H. The concrete shall be poured and finished true and smooth to the required dimensions and slope prior to the the placement. Immediately after finishing concrete,the electronic level should be used to check that the required slope is achieved. The tile shall be placed true and square to the curb edge in accordance with the contract drawings. The Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tiles shall be tamped(or vibrated)into the fresh concrete to ensure that the field level of the tile is flush to the adjacent concrete surface. The embedment process should not be accomplished by stepping on the the as this may cause uneven setting which can result in air voids under the tile surface. The contract drawings indicate that the tile field level(base of truncated dome)is flush to adjacent surfaces to permit proper water drainage and eliminate tripping hazards between adjacent finishes. 1. In cold weather climates it is recommended that the Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tiles be set deeper such that the top of domes are level to the adjacent concrete on the top and sides of ramp and that the base of domes to allow water drainage. This installation will reduce the possibility of damage due to snow clearing operations. J. Immediately after placement,the tile elevation is to be checked to adjacent concrete. The elevation and slope should be set consistent with contract drawings to permit water drainage to curb as the design dictates. K. While concrete is workable,a 3/9'radius edging tool shall be used to create a finished edge of concrete,then a steel trowel shall be used to finish the concrete around the tile's perimeter,flush to the field level of the tile. L. During and after the tile installation and the concrete curing stage,it is imperative that there is no walking,leaning or external forces placed on the the that may rock the tie causing a void between the underside of tile and concrete. M. Following tile placement,review installation tolerances to contract drawings and adjust file before the concrete sets. Two suitable weights of 25 lb each shall be placed on each tile as necessary to ensure solid contact of the underside of tile to concrete. N. Following the concrete curing stage,protective plastic wrap is to be removed from the tile surface by cutting the plastic with a sharp knife,tight to the concrete/tile interface.If concrete bled under the plastic,a soft brass wire brush will clean the residue without damage to the tile surface. 0. If desired,individual tiles can be bolted together using 1/4 inch or equivalent hardware. This can help to ensure that adjacent tiles are flush to each other during the installation process. Tape or caulking can be placed on the underside of the bolted butt joint to ensure that concrete does not rise up between the tiles during installation. Any protective plastic wrap which was peeled back to facilitate bolting or cutting,should be replaced and taped to ensure that the tile surface remains free of concrete during the installation process. P. Tiles can be cut to custom sizes,or to make a radius,using a continuous rim diamond blade in a circular saw or mini-grinder. Use of a straightedge to guide the cut is advisable where appropriate. Q. Any sound-amplifying plates on the underside of the tile,which are dislodged during handling or cutting,should be replaced and secured with construction adhesive. The air gap created between these plates and the bottom of the the is important in preserving the detectability properties of the Armor-Tile system as required in various jurisdictions.

A vibrating mechanism such as that manufactured by Vibco can be employed, if desired. The vibrating unit should be fixed to a soft base such as wood, at least 1 foot square. F. The factory-installed plastic sheeting must remain in place during the entire installation process to prevent the splashing of concrete onto the finished surface of the tile. G. When preparing to set the tile, it is important that no concrete be removed in the area to accept the tile. It is imperative that the installation technique eliminates any air voids under the tile. Holes in the tile perimeter allow air to escape during the installation process. Concrete will flow through the large holes in each embedment flange on the underside of the tile. This will lock the tile solidly into the cured concrete. ADA Cast In Place Tactile Tiles February 2006 Section 09614-3 F H. The concrete shall be poured and finished true and smooth to the required dimensions and slope prior to the tile placement. Immediately after finishing concrete,the electronic level should be used to check that the required. slope is achieved. The tile shall be placed true and square to the curb edge in accordance with the contract drawings. The Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tiles shall be tamped(or vibrated) into the fresh concrete to ensure that the field level of the the is flush to the adjacent concrete surface. The embedment process should not be accomplished by stepping on the tile as this may cause uneven setting which can result in air voids under the tile surface. The contract drawings indicate that the tile field level(base of truncated dome) is flush to adjacent surfaces to permit proper water drainage and eliminate tripping hazards between adjacent finishes. I. In cold weather climates it is recommended that the Cast In Place Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tiles be set deeper such that the top of domes are level to the adjacent concrete on the top and sides of ramp and that the base of domes to allow water drainage. This installation will reduce the possibility of damage due to snow clearing operations. J. Immediately after'placement,the the elevation is to be checked to adjacent concrete. The elevation and slope should be set consistent with contract drawings to permit water drainage to curb as the design dictates. Ensure that the field surface of the tile is flush with the surrounding concrete and back of curb so that no ponding is possible on the tile at the back side of curb. K. While concrete is workable,a 3/8"radius edging tool shall be used to create a finished edge of concrete,then a steel trowel shall be used to finish the concrete around the tile's perimeter,flush to the field level of the tile. L. During and after the tile installation and the concrete curing stage, it is imperative that there is no walking,leaning or external forces placed on the tile that may rock the tile causing a void between the underside of tile and concrete. M. Following tile placement, review installation tolerances to contract drawings and adjust tile before the concrete sets. Two suitable weights of 25 Ib each may be required to be placed on each tile as necessary to ensure solid contact of the underside of tile to concrete. N. Following the concrete curing stage, protective plastic wrap is to be removed from the tile surface by cutting the plastic with a sharp knife,tight to the concrete/tile interface. If concrete bled under the plastic,a soft brass wire brush will clean the residue without damage to the tile surface. O. If desired, individual tiles can be bolted together using%inch or equivalent hardware. This can help to ensure that adjacent tiles are flush to each other during the installation process. Tape or caulking can be placed on the underside of the bolted butt joint to ensure that concrete does notarise up between the tiles during installation. Any protective plastic wrap which was peeled back to facilitate bolting or cutting,should be replaced and taped to ensure that the tile surface remains free of concrete during the installation process. P. Tiles can be cut to custom sizes,or to make a radius, using a continuous rim diamond blade in a circular saw or mini-grinder. Use of a straightedge to guide the cut is advisable where appropriate. Q. Any sound-amplifying plates on the underside of the tile,which are dislodged during handling or cutting, should be replaced and secured with construction adhesive. The air gap created between these plates and the bottom of the tile is important in preserving the sound on cane audible properties of the Armor Tile system as required in various jurisdictions. 3.02 CLEANING, PROTECTING_AND MAINTENANCE A. Protect tiles against damage during construction period to comply with Tactile Tile manufacturer's specification. B. Protect tiles against damage from rolling loads following installation by covering with plywood or hardwood. C. Clean Tactile Tiles not more than four days prior to date scheduled for inspection intended to establish date of substantial completion in each area of project. Clean.Tactile Tile by method specified.by Tactile Tile manufacturer. D. Comply with manufacturers maintenance manual for cleaning and.maintaining tile surface and it is recommended to perform annual inspections for safety and tile integrity.

Installation Manual Armor-Tile Surface Applied Inline Dome Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tile A. During all surface preparation and Surface Applied Detectablelractile Warning Surface Tile installation procedures,ensure adequate safety guidelines are in place and that they are in accordance with the applicable industry and government standards. B. The application of all tiles,adhesives,mechanical fasteners,and caulking shall be in strict accordance with the guidelines set by their respective manufacturers.Not recommended for asphalt applications. C. Coordinate with the Contractor or Engineer to ensure that the surfaces being prepared and fabricated to receive the tiles are constructed correctly and adequately for tile installation. Review design drawings with the Contractor prior to the construction and refer any and all discrepancies to the Engineer. D. Set the tile true and square to the curb ramp area as detailed in the design drawings,so that its location can be marked on the concrete surface. A thin permanent marker works well. Remove tile when done marking its location. E. The surface to receive the Surface Applied Detectable/Tactile Warning Surface Tile is to be mechanically cleaned with a diamond cup grinder or shot blaster to remove any dirt or foreign material. This cleaning and roughening of the concrete surface should include at least 4 inches around the perimeter of the area to receive the tile,and also along the cross pattern established by the corresponding areas on the backside of the tile. Those same areas should then be cleaned with a clean rag soaked in Acetone. F. Immediately prior to installing the Surface Applied Detectable/Tactile Warning SurfaceTile,the concrete surfaces must be inspected to ensure that they'are clean,dry,free of voids,curing compounds,projections,loose material,dust,oil,grease,sealers and determined to be structurally sound and cured for a minimum of 30 days. G. Using Acetone,wipe the backside of the tile around the perimeter and along the internal cross pattern,to remove any dirt or dust particles from the area to receive the adhesive. H. Apply Armor-Bond adhesive to the backside of the tile,following the perimeter and internal cross pattern established by the tile manufacturer. Sufficient adhesive must be placed on the prescribed areas to have full coverage across the 2"width of the adhesive locator and should be applied to within 1/4"continuously around the perimeter edge of the tile. The entire tube of adhesive should be applied to the back of each tile,sizes 24"x 36"and greater. I. Set the tile true and square to the curb ramp area as detailed in the design drawings. J. Working from the center of the tile outwards,proceed to drill and.install all fasteners in the tile's molded recesses. K. Standing with both feet applying pressure around the molded recess provided in the tile,drill a hole true and straight to.a depth of 3'/z"using a 1/4"drill bit. Drill through the tile without hammer option until the the has been successfully penetrated,then with hammer option to.drill into the concrete. Maintaining foot pressure on both sides of the hole while drilling prevents concrete dust from accumulating between the the and concrete which can affect the tile being.installed flush and may compromise installation integrity. L. Immediately after drilling each hole,before moving on to the next,and while still applying foot pressure,mechanically fasten tiles to the concrete substrate using a leather bound or hard plastic mallet to set the fasteners. Ensure the fastener has been placed to full depth in the dome,straight,and flush to the top of dome. Drive the pin of the fastener with the mallet,taking care to avoid any inadvertent blows to the truncated dome or the surface. M. Following the installation of the fasteners,the concrete dust should be vacuumed,brushed or blown away from the tile's surface and adjacent concrete. Using Acetone on a rag,wipe the concrete around the tile's perimeter to ensure a clean,dry surface to receive perimeter sealant. . N. Armor-Seal perimeter caulking sealant should be applied following the sealant manufacturer's recommendations. Tape all perimeter edges of the the back 1/16"from the tile's perimeter edge and tape the adjacent concrete back 1/2"from the tile's perimeter edge. Apply sealant around tile perimeter using care to work sealant into any void between the tile and concrete interface. Tool the perimeter caulking with a plastic applicator or spatula to create a straight edge in a cove profile between the tile and adjacent concrete. Remove tape immediately after tooling perimeter caulking sealant. O. Do not allow foot traffic on installed tiles until the perimeter caulking sealant has cured sufficiently to avoid tracking. Adhesive or caulking on the surface of the Armor-Tile can be removed with Acetone. P. If installing adjacent tiles,note the orientation of each tile. Careful attention will reveal that one of the long edges of the the is different than the other in regard to the tiny dotted texture. You may also note a larger perimeter margin before the tiny dotted texture pattern begins. Consistent orientation of each Armor-Tile is required in order that the truncated domes on adjacent tiles line up with each other. Q.- In order to maintain proper spacing between truncated domes on adjacent tiles,the tapered edge should be trimmed off using a continuous rim diamond blade in a circular saw or mini-grinder. The use of a straightedge to guide the cut is required. All cuts should be made prior to installation of the files. If installing adjacent tiles, care should be taken to leave a 1/8 inch gap between each tile to allow for expansion and contraction. R. If tiles are custom cut to size,if pre-molded recesses(to receive fasteners)are removed by the cut,or to maintain a tight installation to the substrate then any truncated dome can be center-drilled with a 1/4 inch through hole,and countersunk with a suitable bit,to receive mechanical fasteners. Care should betaken to not countersink too widely or deeply. Fasteners should be flush with the top of the truncated dome when countersunk properly.
