SECTION 401
Paving operations shall not resume until the Engineer determines that material meeting the Contract requirements can be
produced. Corrective action will be considered acceptable by the Engineer if the pay factor for the failing property increases. If
it is determined that the resumption of production involves a significant change to the production process, the current lot will be
terminated and a new lot will begin.
3.17.3.6.3 Remeasure and Retest. All requests to the Engineer to remeasure and retest a sublot shall be in writing.
Method of Measurement
4.1 Asphalt pavement mixture will be measured by the ton to the nearest 0.1 ton, and in accordance with 109.01. Batch weights
will be permitted as a method of measurement only when the provisions of 3.8.3 are met, in which case, payment will be based
on the cumulative weight of all the batches. The quantity will be the weight used in the accepted pavement, and no deduction
will be made for the weight of asphalt binder or additives in the mixture.
4.1.1 Hot bituminous pavement, machine or hand method (night) will be measured in the same manner as 4.1. No separate
measurement will be made for lighting necessary or overtime required due to night operations at the plant or at the site.
4.1.2 Due to possible variations in the specific gravity of the aggregates, and to possible field changes in areas to be paved,
the quantity used may vary from the proposal quantities, and no adjustment in Contract unit price will be made because of such
variations.
4.2 Asphalt pavement, removed because of faulty workmanship or contamination by foreign materials, will not be included in
the pay quantity.
4.3 Blank,
4.4 Joint adhesive will be measured by the linear foot for each lift of pavement to be placed, to the nearest foot of adhesive
applied. Ifthe Contractor chooses to pave in echelon in lieu of using joint adhesive, payment for the length of joint eliminated
by the echelon paving will be made,
4.5 Echelon paving, when specified or approved, will be measured by the linear foot along the shared edge of the mats being
simultaneously placed.
Basis of Payment
5.1 All work performed and measured as prescribed above will be paid for at the Contract unit price as provided in the respective
sections for each type specified.
5.2 Tack coat material ordered under 3.10.10 will be paid as provided for in Section 410.
5.3. Blank.
5.4 Plant or project site lighting for hot bituminous pavement, machine or hand method (night), or overtime required due to
night operations will be subsidiary to the paving items.
5.5 Asphalt cement additives will be subsidiary to the paving items.
5.6 Implementation of the Quality Control Plan and costs associated with obtaining core samples for acceptance testing shall
be subsidiary. When items are to be accepted under Quality Assurance provisions, pay adjustment will be made in accordance
with 106.03.2.4 as specified below,
5.6.1 Gradation composite pay factor (CPF). The total price for each lot will be adjusted by a composite pay factor
(CPF) based on the gradation of the material after extraction using the pay factors for each sieve size and the sieve size weight
factors in Tables 401-11, lla & lib.
