HMA Pavement Repair. Arrange a project site meeting with the RE to establish the limits of HMA pavement repair. Additional repairs, not delineated on the Plans or by the RE during the project site meeting, may be required if the need is established by the RE. If potholes are discovered, notify the RE immediately. The RE may immediately direct repairs of small areas. The RE may require further evaluation of a large area to determine the need for additional milling and paving. Perform HMA repairs as a separate operation before milling, paving, and other surface treatments. The Contractor may request approval of the RE to perform the repair work as one operation with the paving or surface treatment. HMA repairs may be performed on full depth HMA pavement or on composite pavement (HMA over concrete pavement). For full depth HMA pavement, sawcut existing HMA pavement to a depth of 8 inches. For composite pavement, sawcut existing HMA to a depth of 8 inches or up to the top of concrete, whichever is less. Sawcut lines parallel and perpendicular to the roadway baseline and 3

hes. For composite pavement, sawcut existing HMA to a depth of 8 inches or up to the top of concrete, whichever is less. Sawcut lines parallel and perpendicular to the roadway baseline and 3 inches away, at the closest point, from the damaged area to be repaired. Remove damaged and loose material within the boundary of the sawcuts to form rectangular openings with vertical sides to a depth of 8 inches for HMA pavement, or to the top of concrete for composite pavement. A milling machine may be used to remove damaged pavement to form the repair areas if approved by the RE. After the existing damaged HMA and loose material has been removed, the RE will examine underlying material to determine its condition. HELEN AVE., LAWRENCE AVE., FLORENCE PL., AND LOWELL AVE., IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT Page 40 of 76

If the base of the repair area is unbound material, then shape and compact the unbound material to produce a firm and level base. If water exists in the area, remove the underlying material to the depth as directed by the RE. Place geotextile, then place and compact coarse aggregate to required grade to provide for a minimum 8 inch thick HMA pavement repair. Compact coarse aggregate as specified in 203.03.02.B.3. If the base of the repair is HMA or concrete pavement, then ensure that the remaining pavement is cleaned and dry prior to applying tack coat. Apply tack coat at an application rate of 0.15 gallons per square yard to the vertical surfaces and base of the opening. Spread and grade HMA surface course mix in the opening as specified for the roadway surface or a HMA surface course mix approved by the RE. Ensure that the temperature of the HMA when placed is at least 250 °F, and compact as specified in 401.03.07.F. Compact areas not accessible to rollers with a flat face compactor. Compact until the top of the patch is flush with, or 1/8 inch higher than, the adjacent pavement surface. Reuse removed material as specified in 202.03.03.C.1. B. HMA Longitudinal Joint Repair. Arrange a project site meeting with the RE to establish the limits of HMA longitudinal repair areas. Additional repairs, not delineated on the Plans or by the RE during the project site meeting, may be required if the need is established by the RE. Mill 2 feet wide, unless directed otherwise by the RE, centered over the HMA longitudinal joint, rumble strip, longitudinal distress areas or any combination of the three, as shown on the Plans and as directed by the RE. Mill to a minimum 2 inches in depth, or as required to remove the damaged pavement. For distress areas wider than 4 feet, the RE may direct the use of HMA pavement repair as specified in 401.03.03.A. Clean the milled area as specified in 401.03.01.A. Obtain RE approval of the repair area before proceeding with the repair. Apply polymerized joint adhesive to the vertical surfaces of the repair area as specified in 401.03.04. Apply tack coat as specified in 401.03.05 at an application rate of 0.15 gallons per square yard to the bottom surface of the repair area. Obtain RE approval of the repair area before

03.04. Apply tack coat as specified in 401.03.05 at an application rate of 0.15 gallons per square yard to the bottom surface of the repair area. Obtain RE approval of the repair area before proceeding with the repair. Spread and grade Hot Mix Asphalt 12.5M64 Surface Course in the repair area as specified in 401.03.07.E. Ensure that the temperature of the HMA when placed and compacted is at least 250 ºF. Compact as specified in 401.03.07.F, ensuring that the top of the compacted HMA is flush with, or not greater than 1/8 inch higher than, the adjacent pavement surface. Reuse removed material as specified in 202.03.03.C.1. 401.03.05 Tack Coat THE FOLLOWING IS ADDED AFTER THE FOURTH PARAGRAPH: The Department will perform verification testing of tack coat application rate according to ASTM D2995, Option A, within the first 300 feet of each paving operation for each lane of paving, except that only one pad assembly will be used for the transverse application rate and the longitudinal application rate will not be verified. Prior to tack coat application, allow the RE access to set geotextile pads for the initial verification test. After passing over the pads with the tack distributor, allow the RE time to perform the verification test and calculation. If the application rate is determined to be outside the rate specified in Table 401.03.05-1, stop the tack coat and paving operations, make the required adjustments to achieve a proper application rate, and allow the RE to perform an additional verification test within the next 300 feet. Allow the RE to perform additional tests until the correct application rate is achieved. Retack areas that are insufficiently coated. The frequency of testing may be increased based on a visual inspection or at the discretion of the RE. 401.03.07 HMA Courses A. Paving Plan. PART (4) IS CHANGED TO: 4.
