The Project Engineer or Manager must approve actual materials and location of barrier. The movement or storage of equipment, material, debris, or fill within these required protective barriers is completely prohibited. In situations where the construction will come closer to a tree than six (6) feet, the orange barrier must still be erected. However, additional padding must be placed around the trunk of each tree starting at ground level and proceeding up the trunk to a height of six or seven feet. Padding should be a minimum eight (8) inches thick, and made of a material strong enough to protect the bark from accidental impacts with hand tools or power equipment. B. Accidental Poisoning: During the construction, the Contractor shall not cause, or permit the cleaning of equipment or material within the root zone of any tree. The Contractor shall not store or dispose of waste material including, but not limited to; paints, solvents, asphalt, concrete, mortar, or any other material harmful to the life of a tree, within the root zone of each tree, or group of trees. C. Root Pruning Specifications: When the cutting of tree roots is necessary, each final cut must be made as cleanly as possible for all roots over three (3) inches in diameter using the following method: 1. The line of excavation will be drawn out and appropriate excavation equipment used to clear the area at least six inches in front of the actual finished excavation line. Roots can then be cut using tools such as axes, stump grinders, or trenchers. 2. Each root over three (3) inches in diameter will then be cut cleanly back to the excavation line using a stump grinder operated by an experienced licensed arborist. A sharp hand or bow saw is acceptable for roots under three (3) inches in diameter. Axes and trenchers do not cut roots cleanly and will not be used for final root cuts. D. Contractor shall coordinate with the Owners' Field Representative prior to and during the installation of tree protection and root pruning activities. Owners' Field Representative, at his/her opinion, will contact the City Forester and/or City Arborist for advice and approval of the tree protection measures taken by the Contractor and also the City's advice and approval during the root pruning activities. E. No damaging attachments, wires, signs, permits or other objects may be fastened by any means to any tree preserved on this project. F. Violation of Specifications and Penalties for Damaging Trees: P:\Street Ovetsizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\General Reqs General Reqs. - 18 Ziegler Road/ Kechter Road Roundabout Project Date: March 8, 2006 Any violation of these specifications will lead to penalties based on the type of violation and/or the resulting damages, and may be grounds for the termination of this contract. The penalties will be assessed based on the amount of damage done and the total value of that tree, or group of trees, prior to the damage. The minimum penalty will be $100.00. Penalties for any damage will be based on the total value of the tree as determined by the City Forestry Division staff and the severity of the damage as a proportion of the total value of that tree. This could include up to the full value of the tree. As an example, there are two American Elm trees to be preserved on another project. They are valued at $7,960 and $6,667 for the south and north trees respectively. The south tree is approximately 100 inches in circumference, therefore each inch is worth one -hundredth of the value, or $79.60 per inch. Similarly, the north tree is 91 inches in circumference, making each inch worth $73.26. To extend this to penalties paid, if one inch of the bark on the south tree is scuffed, the penalty would be $100 (the minimum allowed), if two inches are damaged, the penalty would be $159.20 and so on up to 50% of the circumference of the trunk. If 50% or more is damaged, the full value of the tree will be assessed as a penalty. (This example serves to illustrate how damages will be assessed). This method of assessing penalties will be applicable to all trees not marked for removal on the project, accidental poisoning and improper pruning.

Specifications is hereby revised for this project as follows: Add subsection 102.11 as follows: 102.11 Cost Plus Time Bidding (A + B). A special bidding procedure will be used to determine the successful bidder for this project. This procedure takes into account the price offerings from the bidder and the time the bidder intends to take to substantially complete the work. The work is substantially complete when: (1) all work requiring lane or shoulder closures or other traffic obstructions is complete; (2) traffic is following the lane arrangement shown on the plans for the finished roadway; (3) all pavement construction, joint sealing, and shoulder embankment is complete; (4) traffic control devices and pavement markings are in their final positions; (5) all pedestrian sidewalks and decorative crosswalks within the right-of-way are completed; and (6) all median work (hardscaping, topsoil and fabric) is completed. Work that does not conform to the Contract will not be accepted as substantially complete. Acceptance of the work as substantially complete will be determined in accordance with subsection 105.16(b). (a) Preparation of Proposal. The bidder shall establish the number of calendar days that will be required to substantially complete the work. The calendar day number shall be included in the bid proposal. This calendar day number multiplied by the daily cost shall be added to the total amount bid for the work items. The sum of these two amounts will be used to determine the lowest successful bidder according to the following formula: A + B x (the daily cost) = Contractor's bid for evaluation of the lowest successful bidder Where: A = Contractor's total bid for the work items B = Number of Calendar days required to substantially complete the work. Daily cost for this project = $2,072.00 The above formula will be used solely for the purpose of determining the lowest successful bidder and will have no effect on the actual total bid cost for completing the work. (b) Early Completion of the Work Incentive. If the Contractor substantially completes the work in less than the total number of days bid, an incentive will be paid to the Contractor. This incentive (I) will equal the number of calendar days bid (B) minus the actual number of calendar days required to substantially complete the work (C) multiplied by the daily cost. I = (B — C) x (the daily cost) The maximum incentive is limited to five percent of the Contractor's total bid for the work items (0.05 x A). (c) Late Completion of the Work Disincentive. If the number of calendar days required to substantially complete the work is in excess of the total number of calendar days bid, a disincentive will be deducted from payments made to the Contractor. This disincentive (D) will equal the actual number of calendar days required to substantially complete the work (C) minus the number of calendar days bid (B) multiplied by the daily cost. D = (C — B) x (the daily cost) END OF SECTION REVISION OF SECTION 202 REMOVALS P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction SpecsUechnical Specs Technical Specs - 3 Ziegler Road / KechterRoad Roundabout Project Date: April 10, 2006 Section 202 of the Standard Specifications is hereby revised for this project as follows: Subsection 202.01 is revised to include the following: The Contractor shall remove and dispose of all concrete sidewalk, curb and gutter, crosspans, driveways, inlets, irrigation structures, pipe, structures, asphalt, fence, trees, retaining walls and any other obstructions that are designated for removal by the Engineer.

If flyash is furnished in trucks, each truck shall have the weight of flyash certified on public scales or the Contractor shall place a set of standard platform truck scales or hopper scales at a location approved by the Engineer. D. All sheep foot compactors shall have all cleaner bars in working condition. P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\Technical Specs Technical Specs - 17 Ziegler Road / KechterRoad Roundabout Project Date: April 10, 2006 E. At the direction of the on -site Engineer a water truck will be on site to support finish and tilling operation. CONSTRUCTION METHODS A. General It is the primary purpose of this specification to secure a completed course of treated material that contains the following: 1. Uniform flyash/soil mixture with no loose or segregated areas; 2. Uniform density and moisture content 3. Is well bound for its full depth 4. A smooth surface suitable for placing subsequent courses. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to regulate the sequence of his work; to process a sufficient quantity of material to achieve full depth as shown on plans; to use the proper amounts of flyash; to maintain the work; and to rework the courses as necessary to meet the above requirements at no additional cost. Before other construction operations are initiated, the sub -grade shall be graded and shaped to enable the flyash treatment of materials in place, in conformance with the lines, grades, and thickness shown on the plans. Unsuitable soil or materials shall be removed and replaced with acceptable material. The sub -grade shall be firm and able to support, without displacement, the construction equipment and the compaction hereinafter specified. Soft or yielding sub -grade shall be corrected and made stable by scarifying, adding flyash, and compacting until it is of uniform stability. If the Contractor elects to use a trimming machine that will remove the sub -grade material accurately to the secondary grade, he will not be required to expose the secondary grade or windrow the material. However, the Contractor shall be required to roll the sub -grade, as directed by the Engineer, before using the trimming machine and correcting any soft areas that this rolling may reveal. This method will be permitted only where a machine is provided which will ensure that the material is cut uniformly to the proper depth and which has cutters that will plane the secondary grade to a smooth surface over the entire width of the cut. The machine shall be of such design that visible indication is given at all times that the machine is cutting to the proper depth. B. Application The flyash shall be spread by an approved spreader at the rate of 12% dry weight of soil as shown on the plans and as directed by the Engineer. A motor grader shall not be used to spread the flyash. The flyash shall be distributed at a uniform rate and in such manner as to reduce the scattering of fly sh by wind to a minimum. Flyash shall not be applied when wind conditions, in the opinion of the Engineer, are such that blowing flyash becomes objectionable to traffic or adjacent property owners. During final mixing, water shall be added to the materials as directed by the Engineer, until the proper moisture content has been secured. Water shall be added through the pulverizing machine or method acceptable to the Engineer to develop a uniform, controlled rate addition of the needed moisture. Initial mixing after the addition of flyash will be accomplished dry or with a minimum of water to prevent flyash balls. Final moisture content of the mix, prior to compaction, shall not exceed the optimum moisture content of the mix by more than two percent nor by less than the optimum by more than four percent. Should the natural moisture content of the soil be above the specified range, aeration of the soil may be required prior to addition of the flyash. C. Mixing The soil and flyash shall be thoroughly mixed by approved rotary mixers or other approved equipment, and the P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\Technical Specs Technical Specs - 18 Ziegler Road / KechterRoad Roundabout Project Date: April 10, 2006 mixing continued until, in the opinion of the Engineer, a homogeneous, friable mixture of soil and flyash is obtained, free from all clods or lumps. Water required to achieve the specified moisture content for the mixture should be added after initial mixing. If the soil flyash mixture contains clods, they shall be reduced in size by raking, blading, disking, harrowing, scarifying or the use of other approved pulverization methods so that when all non -slaking aggregates retained on the No. 4 sieve are removed, the remainder of the material shall meet the following requirements when tested at the field moisture condition or dry by laboratory sieves: Minimum Passing: linch sieve 100 percent Minimum Passing: No. 4 sieve 60 percent D. Compaction Compaction of the mixture shall begin immediately after mixing of the flyash and be completed within one hour following addition of flyash and water. The material shall be sprinkled as necessary to maintain the optimum moisture. Compaction of the mixture shall begin at the bottom and shall continue until the entire depth of mixture is uniformly compacted to a specified density. All non -uniform (too wet, too dry or insufficiently treated) areas which appear shall be corrected immediately by scarifying the areas affected, adding or removing material as required and reshaping the re -compacting by sprinkling and rolling. The surface of the course shall be maintained in a smooth condition, free from undulations and ruts, until other work is placed thereon or the work is accepted. The stabilized section shall be compacted to the extent necessary to provide the density specified below: Description For flyash treated sub -grade, existing sub -base Not less than 95 percent maximum pry density (ASTM or existing base that will receive subsequent D-698) sub -base or base courses For flyash treated sub -base or base that will Not less than 95 percent maximum dry density receive surface course (ASTM D-698) In addition to the requirements specified for density, the full depth of the material shown on the plans shall be compacted to the extent necessary to remain firm and stable under construction equipment. After each section is completed, the Engineer will make tests as necessary. If the material fails to meet the density requirements, the Engineer may require it to be reworked as necessary to meet those requirements or require the Contractor to change his construction methods to obtain required density on the next section. Throughout this entire operation, the shape of the course shall be maintained with a blade, and the surface, upon completion, shall be smooth and in conformity with the typical section shown on the plans and to the established lines and grades. Grading should be terminated within two hours after blending of the flyash. Should the material, due to any reason or cause, lose the required stability, density and finish before the next course is placed or the work is accepted, it shall be reprocessed, re -compacted and refinished at the sole expense of the Contractor. Reprocessing shall follow the same pattern as the initial stabilization, including the addition of flyash. E. Finishing, Curing and Preparation for Surfacing After the final course of the treated sub -grade, sub -base or base has been compacted; it shall be brought the required lines and grades in accordance with the typical sections. The resulting base surface shall be thoroughly rolled with a pneumatic tire roller and "clipped", "skinned" or "tight bladed" by a power grader to a depth of approximately 3 inch, removing all loosened stabilized material from the section: Re -compaction of the loose material should not be attempted. The surface shall P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\Technical Specs Technical Specs - 19 Ziegler Road / KechterRoad Roundabout Project Date: April 10, 2006 then be thoroughly compacted with the pneumatic roller, adding small increments of moisture as needed during rolling. If plus No. 4 aggregate is present in the mixture; one complete coverage of the section with the fat wheel roller shall be made immediately after the "clipping" operation. When directed by the Engineer, surface finishing methods may be varied from this procedure provided a dense, uniform surface, free of surface compaction plans, is produced. The moisture content of the surface material must be maintained within the specified range during all finishing operations. Surface compaction and finishing shall proceed in such a manner as to produce, in not more than two hours, a smooth, closely knit surface, free of cracks, ridges or loose material conforming to the crown, grade and line shown on the plans. 2. After the flyash treated course has been finished as specified herein, the surface shall be protected against rapid drying by either of the following curing methods for a period of not less than three days or until the surface or subsequent courses are placed: (a) Maintain a thorough and continuously moist condition by sprinkling. (b) Apply a two-inch layer of earth on the completed course and maintain in a moist condition. (c) Apply an asphalt membrane to the treated course, immediately after same is completed. The quantity and type of asphalt approved for use by the Engineer shall be sufficient to completely cover and seal the total surface of the base between crown lines and all voids. If the Contractor elects to use this method, it shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to protect the asphalt membrane from being picked up by traffic by either sanding or dusting the surface of same. The asphalt membrane may remain in place when the proposed surface or other base courses are placed. Asphaltic emulsions are not acceptable for the asphaltic membrane. METHOD OF MEASUREMENT Flyash Sub -grade Stabilization will be measured by the square yard to the limits as constructed in the field and be paid for at the contract unit price per square yard. NOTE: The square yards of Flyash Sub -grade Stabilization is an estimate only based on the soils report and general knowledge of the soil conditions in this area. The sub -grade areas to be stabilized with flyash will be determined by the Engineer based upon results after proof rolling and effects resulting from inclement weather conditions. Sub -grade areas not requiring flyash stabilization will be Reconditioned (Revision of Section 306), measured by the square yard as constructed in the field and Daid for at the Reconditioning contract unit Drive per square Yard.

FC03508.135 S:1FC03508.000113512. Report 11FC03508.135.rpLdoc SCOPE This report presents the results of our subgrade investigation and pavement design for the Zeigler Road widening from Shallow Pond Drive to Trilby Road, for Trilby Road from Zeigler Road to the southwest corner of the Kinard Junior High School site and for the Old Legacy Drive cul-de-sac. This investigation was to identify the type of subgrade soils under the proposed streets to be widened and paved and to send design pavement alternatives for paving the streets. We believe our report is in general conformance with Chapter 5 and Chapter 10 of the Larimer County Urban Areas Street Standards repealed and reenacted October 1, 2002, as adopted by the City of Fort Collins. Our report includes a description of the subgrade soils penetrated by our exploratory borings, laboratory test results, recommended alternative pavement sections and construction and materials guidelines. Our recommendations are based upon laboratory test results, discussions with the City of Fort Collins project design team, City of Fort Collins design criteria, the American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) 1993 "Guide for Design of Pavement Structures". and our experience. SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS 1. Our borings penetrated 5 feet and 10 feet of loose to medium dense, clayey sands and occasional layers of stiff sandy clays to the maximum depth drilled of 10 feet. Bedrock was not penetrated in the ten borings. 2. Ground water was encountered between 5.5 feet and 7.5 feet in 7 of the ten borings. 3. The subgrade soils have medium to high swell potential and fair to poor subgrade support characteristics. Mitigation measures are discussed in this report. 4. Subgrade soils should be scarified a minimum of 8 Inches deep, moisture conditioned and compacted to at least 95 percent of Standard Proctor maximum dry density (AASHTO T 99). Sand soils should be moisture conditioned to 2 percent below to 2 percent CITY OF FORT COLLINS 1 OLD LEGACY DRIVE CUL-DE-SAC, ZEIGLER ROAD WIDENING AND TRILBY ROAD CTL I T PROJECT NO.

Clay soils should be moisture conditioned to between optimum moisture content and 3 percent above optimum moisture content. 5. Pavement sections using asphaltic concrete pavement on prepared subgrade, asphaltic concrete pavement on compacted aggregate base course and concrete pavement are discussed in this report. SITE CONDITIONS Kinard Junior High School is located just outside of the southeastern corner of the City of Fort Collins. The Old Legacy Drive cul-de-sac is located on the northern boundary of the school site. Zeigler Road borders the eastern side of the school site and will be widened. Trilby currently ends at the intersection with Zeigler Road at the southeast corner of the school site. The alignment of the proposed stretch of Trilby Road is a cornfield with standing corn along the south side of the school site. PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION The proposed project includes the widening of about 750 feet of Zeigler Road from Shallow Pond Drive to Trilby Road, constructing about 1000 feet of Trilby Road from the Zeigler Road/Trilby Road intersection to the southwest corner of the Kinard .Junior High School site and paving the Old Legacy Drive cul- de-sac in Fort Collins, Colorado (see Figure 1). The stretch of Zeigler Road will be widened on its west side. A traffic control island is proposed at the Trilby Road intersection with Zeigler Road in Trilby Road. There is also a waterline planned along the south side of the Trilby Road right-of-way. INVESTIGATION Subsoils were investigated by drilling ten exploratory borings. Four borings were drilled to 10 feet in the proposed widening of Zeigler Road at approximate intervals of 200 feet, five borings were drilled to 10 feet for the Trilby Road construction at approximate intervals of 250 feet and one boring was drilled CITY OF FORT COLLINS 2 OLD LEGACY DRIVE CUL-DE-SAC, ZEIGLER ROAD WIDENING AND TRILBY ROAD CTL I T PROJECT NO.

The borings were drilled with a truck -mounted drill rig using 6-inch diameter continuous flight augers. Soils were sampled by driving a California sampler with a 140-pound hammer falling 30 inches and by collecting bulk samples from the auger cuttings. SUBSURFACE Our borings penetrated 5 feet to 10 feet of clayey sands. The sands were medium dense overlying looser sands. The sands were bedded with occasional thin layers of stiff, sandy clays. The clayey sands and sandy clays were moist to very moist. Bedrock was not encountered in the ten borings. We encountered ground water in 7 of the 10 borings from 5.5 feet to 7.5 feet. Summary logs of the borings, including results of field penetration resistance tests, are shown on Figure 2. LABORATORY INVESTIGATION The laboratory investigation for the pavement subgrade soils was designed to provide index properties, swell/consolidation characteristics, and subgrade support values for those soils that influence the pavement design. Index properties of the soils sampled were measured and the soils were classified according to AASHTO and the Unified Soil Classification System. The soils classified as follows: five samples were A-7-6, 4 samples were A-2-7 and one sample was A-2-6 according to the AASHTO classification. Nine of the samples were classified as clayey sands (SC) and one sample was classified as a sandy clay (CL) according to the Unified Soil Classification System. The samples had group indices ranging from 0 to 29. CITY OF FORT COLLINS 3OLD LEGACY DRIVE CUL-DE-SAC, ZEIGLER ROAD WIDENING AND TRILBY ROAD CTL I T PROJECT NO. FC03608.136 SAFC03508.0=13M2.

The samples had 24 percent to 81 percent silt and clay -sized particles (passing the No. 200 sieve) with the majority of the samples having between 33 percent and 48 percent. A Hveem Stabilometer test (R-value) (ASTM D 2844, AASHTO T 190) was performed on the sample of clays (A-7-6) because it was judged to be the poorest sample and an R- value of 15 (see Figure 10) was obtained. We tested three samples in our swell/consolidation apparatus. The samples were lightly loaded to 150 psf, flooded with water and allowed to swell or consolidate. Test results indicated medium swell for the A-2-7 soils (1.3 percent) and high for the A-7-6 soil (2.1 percent). Swell test results are presented on Figure 8 and Figure 9. Based on the swell test data, Atterberg limits, visual observations of the soils and our experience, we judge the swell potential of subgrade soils to be high, using the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards. Laboratory test results are presented on Figure 3 through Figure 10 and summarized in Table I. SUBGRADE PREPARATION The subgrade soils under the Zeigler Road widening, Trilby Road construction and Old Legacy Drive cul-de-sac are medium to high swell potential. Soils with this swell potential will require mitigation per the Urban Area Street Standards. Mitigation measures include over excavation and replacement with non -expansive or low -expansive material or chemical treatment such as mixing the on -site soils with fly ash (preferred by Street Oversizing Department). Lime and cement are also mixed with on -site soils to provide mitigation. Finally, sub drains have proved effective. Drains, if selected as part of the mitigation treatment, should be designed as required by the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards. CITY OF FORT COLLINS 4 OLD LEGACY DRIVE CUL-DE-SAC, ZEIGLER ROAD WIDENING AND TRILBY ROAD CTL I T PROJECT NO. FC03508-135 S.IFC03508.000113M. Report 11FC03508-13S.rpt.doc Should the over -excavation and replacement measure be selected we believe the depth should be of the order of 2.5 feet below rough subgrade elevation for the street widening and street construction proposed for this project. Should the chemical treatment measure be selected we believe the depth should be 1 foot below rough subgrade elevation for the street widening and street construction for this project. Subgrade (the subgrade would be non -expansive or low -expansive material if over -excavation mitigation measure is selected) immediately below the pavement section (not applicable if chemical treatment mitigation is selected) should be scarified a minimum of 12 inches deep, moisture conditioned to between 2 percent below and 1 percent above optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95 percent of standard maximum dry density (ASTM D 698). Scarification and re -compaction of the upper 12 inches of subgrade soils should occur as close to the time of pavement construction as possible. The final subgrade surface must be protected from freezing and from excessive drying or wetting until such time as the pavement section is constructed. If chemical treatment is chosen for mitigation or stabilization, it should be done as close to the time of pavement construction as possible to avoid damage to the finished surface. On -site soils substantially free of trash, debris, organics or other deleterious materials are suitable for re -use as fill. Imported fill should consist of soils with properties similar or better than the on -site soils. Samples of the proposed fill should be submitted to our office for approval prior to importing to the site. A representative of our firm should observe placement and test compaction of fill. Proper grading and drainage and maintaining moisture contents near optimum will be critical to avoid excessive deflections, rutting and pumping of the roadway during subgrade preparation. If moisture and density cannot be sufficiently controlled during subgrade preparation and stabilization is required, stabilization by removal and replacement or stabilization using geotextile fabrics CITY OF FORT COLLINS 5 OLD LEGACY DRAM CUL-DE-SAC, ZEIGLER ROAD WIDENING AND TRILBY ROAD CTL I T PROJECT NO.

For isolated or small areas requiring stabilization, removal and replacement or "crowding" angular, coarse aggregate into the subgrade may be effective. SOLUBLE SULFATES Water-soluble sulfate (SO4) concentrations were measured for two samples of the near -surface subgrade soils to determine the risk of exposure to sulfate attack where portiand cement concrete is used and to assess the risk of increased swelling due to reaction to chemical stabilization. Concentrations of 0.01 and 0.12 percent were measured. These results indicate Class 0 (formerly "negligible") and Class I (formally "moderate") exposure to sulfate attack on concrete (e.g. curb and gutter or pavements) according to the American Concrete Institute (ACI). These results also indicate low risk of increased swelling due to reaction from chemical stabilization. ACI recommends Type II cement be used in concrete with moderate exposure to sulfate attack. For this site, Type II cement should be used in concrete. The water-cementitious material ratio should be 0.50 or less. ACI also recommends concrete in Class I exposure environments have a minimum compressive strength of 4000 psi. PAVEMENT DESIGN We used the AASHTO design method in accordance with the City of Fort Collins requirements. The City of Fort Collins designated Zeigler Road as a two lane arterial that should be designed for an Equivalent Daily Load Application (ESLA) value of 125 (912,500 ESAL) Trilby Road as an industrial/commercial collector that should be designed for an EDLA value of 100 (730,000 ESAL) and the Old Legacy Drive cul-de-sac as residential single lane that should be designed for an EDLA value of 10 (73,000 ESAL).

Report 11FC035a8.135.rpt.dac Installation of a geotextile fabric (Mirafi 50OX or equal) between the subgrade and the base course could be used if the fly ash stabilized subgrade is not. Such an application of fabric increases the performance of the pavement because it prevents the subgrade and base course from mixing which can happen over the design life of the pavement section, especially in areas where higher volumes of automobile traffic are expected. If subgrade stabilization due to soft or loose soils is required, overexcavation and replacement with coarse, granular soil such as pit run gravel, use of geotextiles or geogrids, or chemical stabilization such as fly ash typically perform well in soil environments similar to those we encountered at this site. Chemical stabilization techniques have weather and temperature limitations that should be considered. PAVEMENT MATERIALS Material properties and construction criteria for the pavement alternatives are provided below. These criteria were developed from analysis of the field and laboratory data, our experience and City of Fort Collins requirements. If the materials cannot meet these recommendations, then the pavement design should be reevaluated based upon available materials. All materials and construction requirements of the City of Fort Collins should be followed. All materials planned for construction should be submitted and the applicable laboratory tests performed to verify compliance with the specifications (see Appendix C). Asphaltic Concrete (AC) 9. Hot mix asphalt should be composed of a mixture of aggregate, filler, hydrated lime, and asphalt cement. Some mixes may require polymer modified asphalt cement, or make use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). A job mix design is recommended and periodic checks on the job site should be made to verify compliance with specifications.

Hot mix asphalt should be relatively impermeable to moisture and should be designed with crushed aggregates that have a minimum of 80% of the aggregate retained on the No. 4 sieve with two mechanically fractured faces. 3. Gradations that approach the maximum density line (within 5% between the No. 4 and 50 sieve) should be avoided. A gradation with a nominal maximum size of 3/4 or 1/2 inches developed on the fine side of the maximum density line should be used. 4. Total void content, voids in the mineral aggregate (VMA) and voids filled should be considered in the selection of the optimum asphalt cement content. The optimum asphalt content should be selected at a total air void content of approximately 4%. The mixture should have a minimum VMA of 14% and between 65% and 80% of voids filled. 5. Asphalt cement should meet the requirements of the Superpave Performance Graded Binders (PG). The minimum performing asphalt cement should be PG 64-22 for use along the Front Range. The use of PG 58-28 or PG 58-22 asphalt cement has been known to cause tenderness in pavements in the Front Range area and should be avoided. 6. If used, hydrated lime should be added at the rate of 1% by dry weight of the aggregate and should be included in the amount passing the No. 200 sieve. Hydrated lime for aggregate pretreatment should conform to the requirements of ASTM C 207, Type N. 7. We recommend paving only be performed when subgrade temperatures are above 40°F and air temperature is at least 40°F and rising. 8. Hot mix asphalt should not be placed at a temperature lower than 245'F for mixes containing PG 64-22 asphalt, and 290°F for mixes containing polymer modified asphalt. The breakdown compaction should be completed before the mixture temperature drops 20°F. 9. The maximum compacted lift should be 3.0 inches and joints should be staggered. No joints should be placed within wheel paths. 10. Asphalt concrete should be compacted to between 92 and 96 percent of maximum theoretical density. The surface shall be sealed with a finish roller prior to the mix cooling to 1850F. 11. Placement and compaction of hot mix asphalt should be observed and tested by a representative of our firm. Placement should not commence until the subgrade is properly prepared (or stabilized), observed, and proof -rolled.

Report 11FC03508.135xptdo0 Aggregate Base Course (ABC) 1. A Class 5 or 6 Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) specified aggregate base course should be used. A recycled concrete alternative, which meets the Class 5 or 6 designations, is also acceptable. 2. Aggregate base course should have a minimum Hveem stabilometer value of 77. Aggregate base course or recycled concrete material must be moisture stable. The change in R-value from 300 psi to 100 psi exudation pressure should be 12 points or less. 3. If used, geotextile fabric (Mirafi 500x or equivalent) should be placed over the approved subgrade within 24 hours prior to placement of aggregate base course or recycled concrete. Fabric should be rolled out longitudinally with minimum overlapped seams of 2.5 feet. No wrinkles should be permitted. 4. Aggregate base course or recycled base course should be placed in thin lifts not to exceed 8 inches, moisture treated to within 2% of optimum moisture content, and compacted to at least 95% of standard Proctor maximum dry density (ASTM D 698, AASHTO T 99). 5. Placement and compaction of aggregate base course or recycled concrete should be observed and tested by a representative of our firm. Placement should not commence until the underlying subgrade is properly prepared and observed. Prepared Subgrade 1. Subgrade should be stripped of organic matter, scarified, moisture treated, and compacted. 2. Cohesive soils (A-6 to A-7-6) should be moisture conditioned between optimum to 2% above optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of maximum standard Proctor dry density (ASTM D 698, AASHTO T 99). 3. Granular soils (A-1 to A-5) should be moisture conditioned between 2% below to 1% above optimum moisture content and compacted to at least 95% of maximum standard Proctor dry density (ASTM D 698, AASHTO T 99). 4. Final grading of the subgrade should be carefully controlled so the design cross -slope is maintained and low spots in the subgrade that could trap water are eliminated.

Once final subgrade elevation has been reached and the subgrade compacted and observed, the area should be proof -rolled with a pneumatic tired vehicle loaded to at least 18 kips per axle. The proof -roll should be performed while moisture contents of the subgrade are still within the recommended limits. Drying of the subgrade prior to proof -roll or paving should be avoided. Areas of soft or wet subgrade should be remedied. CONSTRUCTION DETAILS The design of a pavement system is as much a function of the quality of the paving materials and construction as the support characteristics of the subgrade. The construction materials are assumed to possess sufficient quality as reflected by the strength coefficients used in the flexible pavement design calculations. These strength coefficients were developed through research and experience to simulate expected material of good quality, as explained herein. During construction careful attention should be paid to the following details: • Placement and compaction of trench backfill. • Compaction at curb lines and around manholes and water valves. • Excavation of completed pavements for utility construction and repair. • Moisture treating or stabilization of the subgrade to reduce swell potential. • Design slopes of the adjacent ground and pavement to rapidly remove water from the pavement surface. MAINTENANCE We recommend a preventive maintenance program be followed for all pavement systems to assure the design life can be realized. Choosing to defer maintenance usually results in accelerated deterioration leading to higher future maintenance costs, and/or repair (See Appendix D).

Report 17C03500-135.rpt.doc LIMITATIONS The pavement and construction recommendations are based upon our field observation and testing, minimum traffic levels, and design criteria required by the City of Fort Collins and the AASHTO design methods. The design procedures were formulated to provide sections with adequate structural strength. Routine maintenance, such as sealing and repair of cracks, is necessary to achieve the long-term life of a pavement system. If the design and construction recommendations cannot be followed, or anticipated traffic loads change considerably, we should be contacted to review the recommendations. We believe the geotechnical services for this project were performed in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily used by members of the profession in the locality of the project. No warranty, express or implied, is made.

FC03503.136 S:IFC03500.0001135@. Report AFC03508.335,rpt.doc FLY ASH STABILIZATION CONSTRUCTION RECOMMENDATIONS 1. The areas to be treated should be cut within 6 inches of the bottom of the zone to be treated. The resulting surface should be prepared with a blade to provide a relatively smooth working area. 2. The bottom 6 inches of the treatment zone should be scarifled and pulverized. Pulverization should be accomplished using a rototiller or similar device. The combination of scarifying and rototilling should result in a layer of soil approximately 8 inches in thickness pulverized to minus 1 inch in the area of stabilization. 3. When pulverization is complete, fly ash shall be applied at a rate of 12 percent of the dry compacted weight. The fly ash content can be made more precise by performing a mix design using on -site soils and the fly ash anticipated for the stabilization. 4. The fly ash should be spread uniformly across the area to be treated and mixed with a rototiller or similar device. 5. When sufficient soil and fly ash has been mixed, water should be added to bring the mixture to 2 percent to 5 percent above optimum moisture content for compaction. Optimum moisture content will be determined by compacting a sample of the mixture using ASTM D 698 compaction procedure. The area to be compacted should be rolled with a vibrating sheepsfoot or similar compactor until 95 percent of the maximum density determined using ASTM D 698 on the treated soil is achieved. 6. Subsequent lifts of the stabilized zone should be placed in an 8- inch thick loose lift(s), pulverized and compacted as described in Items 2 through 5 immediately above. 7. The final lift should be allowed to cure for 3 to 7 days or until a non -yielding surface is achieved.

Submit Shop Drawings, Samples, and other submittals as required by individual specification sections. 1. The Engineer will not accept Shop Drawings or other submittals from anyone but the Contractor. B. Schedule: Reference Section 01310, Construction Schedules. Submittals received by the Engineer prior to the time set forth in the approved schedule will be reviewed at any time convenient to the Engineer before the time required by the schedule. C. Any need for more than one resubmission, or any other delay in obtaining the Engineer's review of submittals, will not entitle the Contractor to an extension of the Contract Time, unless delay of the Work is directly caused by failure of the Engineer to return any scheduled submittal within 10 days after receipt in his office of all information required for review of the submittals or for any other reason which prevents the Engineer's timely review. Failure of Contractor to coordinate submittals that must be reviewed together will not entitle the Contractor to an extension of Contract Time or an increase in Contract Price. D. Resubmit a corrected submittal if errors are discovered during manufacture or fabrication. E. Do not use materials or equipment for which Shop Drawings or samples are required until such submittals, stamped by the Contractor and properly marked by the Engineer, are at the site and available to workmen. F. Only use Shop Drawings which bear Engineer's mark "NO EXCEPTION TAKEN" in the performance of the Work. Review status designations listed on Engineer's submittal review stamp are defined as follows: 1. NO EXCEPTION TAKEN Signifies material or equipment represented by the submittal conforms with the design concept, complies with the information given in the Contract Documents and is acceptable for incorporation in the Work. Contractor is to proceed with fabrication or procurement of the items and with related work. Copies of the submittal are to be transmitted for final distribution. 2. REVISE AS NOTED Signifies material or equipment represented by the submittal conforms with the design concept, complies with the information given in the Contract Documents and is acceptable for incorporation in the Work in accordance with Engineer's notations. Contractor is to proceed with the Work in accordance with Engineer's notations and is to submit a revised submittal responsive to notations marked on the returned submittal or written in the letter of transmittal. P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\General Reqs General Reqs. - 10 MATERIAL PROPERTIES ASPHALT CONCRETE > Design assumes a strength coefficient of 0.44. > Asphalt concrete should be relatively impermeable to moisture and should be designed with 100% crushed aggregates that have a minimum of 80% of the aggregate retained on the No. 4 sieve with two mechanically fractured faces. > Gradations that approach the maximum density line (within 5% between the No. 4 and 40 sieve) should be avoided. > A gradation with a nominal maximum size of 3/4" developed on the fine side of the maximum density line should be used. > Total void content, Void in the Mineral Aggregate (VMA) and voids filled shall be considered in the selection of the optimum asphalt cement content. The optimum asphalt content shall be selected at a total air void content of 4%. The mixture shall have a minimum VMA of 14% and voids filled that range from 65 to 80%. > Polymer modification can change the rheology and viscosity to improve pavement performance and is recommended for the upper 3 inches of collector and arterial streets. > Residential streets should be fog sealed approximately 30 days after the placement of asphalt concrete at 0.1 to 0.15 gallons per square yard. > A job mix design and periodic checks on the job site shall be made to verify compliance with the specifications. AGGREGATE BASE COURSE > Design assumes a minimum Hveem stabilometer value of 70. > A Class 5 or 6 Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) specified aggregate base course is recommended. > Aggregate base must be moisture stable. The change in R-value from 300 psi to 100 psi exudation pressure must be 12 points or less. If the construction materials cannot meet these recommendations, then the pavement design should be evaluated based upon available materials. Materials and placement methods should conform to the requirements of the City of Fort Collins. All material planned for construction should be submitted and the applicable laboratory tests performed to verify compliance with the specifications. CITY OF FORT COLLINS Appendix C-1 OLD LEGACY DRIVE CUL-DE-SAC, ZEIGLER ROAD WIDENING AND TRILBY ROAD CTL I T PROJECT NO. FC03506.135 3:1FC03508.000513512, Report 1XFC03508.135.rpt.Eac 0 CONSTRUCTION CHECKLIST The construction procedure of the pavement system is as important as the quality of the materials. Inadequate compaction of the subgrade is often the reason for early pavement failure, resulting in pavement instability, rutting, cracking, settlement and heave. We recommend the proposed pavement be constructed in the following manner. PREPARATION Subgrade Preparation n Subgrade shall be stripped of organic matter, scarified, moisture treated, and compacted. n Utility trenches and all subsequently placed fill shall also be compacted and tested prior to paving. v Final grading of the subgrade should be carefully controlled so the design cross -slope is maintained and low spots in the subgrade that could trap water are eliminated.

Report 11FC03508.135apl.doc 0 MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FLEXIBLE PAVEMENTS The primary cause for deterioration of low traffic volume pavements is oxidative aging resulting in brittle pavements. Tire loads from traffic are necessary to "work" or knead the asphalt concrete to keep it flexible and rejuvenated. Preventive maintenance treatments will typically preserve the original or existing pavement by providing a protective seal or rejuvenating the asphalt binder to extend pavement life. 1. Annual Preventive Maintenance a. Visual pavement evaluations shall be performed each spring or fall. b. Reports documenting the progress of distress shall be kept current to provide information on effective times to apply preventive maintenance treatments. C. Crack sealing shall be performed annually as new cracks appear. 2. 3 to 5 Year Preventive Maintenance a. The owner should budget for a preventive treatment at approximate intervals of 3 to 5 years to reduce oxidative embrittlement problems. b. Typical preventive maintenance treatments include chip seals, fog seals, slurry seals and crack sealing. 3. 5 to 10 Year Corrective Maintenance a. Corrective maintenance may be necessary, as dictated by the pavement condition, to correct rutting, cracking and structurally failed areas. b. Corrective maintenance may include full depth patching, milling and overlays. C. In order for the pavement to provide a 20-year service life, at least one major corrective overlay can be expected.

END OF SECTION P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\General Reqs General Reqs. - 18 Ziegler Road/ Kechter Road Roundabout Project SECTION 01570 TREE PROTECTION Date: March 8, 2006 A. Tree Barriers: All trees which will be preserved, but are within the limits of construction, must be protected from all damage associated with construction. A sturdy, physical barrier (fluorescent orange in color) must be fixed in place around each tree for the duration of construction. This barrier will be placed no closer than six (6) feet from the trunk, or one-half of the drip line, whichever is greater. The barrier itself must be fixed so it cannot be moved easily, but the material can be flexible, such as orange safety fence attached to metal T-posts driven into the ground, but must act as an effective deterrent to deliberate or accidental damage of each tree. The Project Engineer or Manager must approve actual materials and location of barrier. The movement or storage of equipment, material, debris, or fill within these required protective barriers is completely prohibited. In situations where the construction will come closer to a tree than six (6) feet, the orange barrier must still be erected. However, additional padding must be placed around the trunk of each tree starting at ground level and proceeding up the trunk to a height of six or seven feet. Padding should be a minimum eight (8) inches thick, and made of a material strong enough to protect the bark from accidental impacts with hand tools or power equipment. B. Accidental Poisoning: During the construction, the Contractor shall not cause, or permit the cleaning of equipment or material within the root zone of any tree. The Contractor shall not store or dispose of waste material including, but not limited to; paints, solvents, asphalt, concrete, mortar, or any other material harmful to the life of a tree, within the root zone of each tree, or group of trees. C. Root Pruning Specifications: When the cutting of tree roots is necessary, each final cut must be made as cleanly as possible for all roots over three (3) inches in diameter using the following method: 1. The line of excavation will be drawn out and appropriate excavation equipment used to clear the area at least six inches in front of the actual finished excavation line. Roots can then be cut using tools such as axes, stump grinders, or trenchers. 2. Each root over three (3) inches in diameter will then be cut cleanly back to the excavation line using a stump grinder operated by an experienced licensed arborist. A sharp hand or bow saw is acceptable for roots under three (3) inches in diameter. Axes and trenchers do not cut roots cleanly and will not be used for final root cuts. D. Contractor shall coordinate with the Owners' Field Representative prior to and during the installation of tree protection and root pruning activities. Owners' Field Representative, at his/her opinion, will contact the City Forester and/or City Arborist for advice and approval of the tree protection measures taken by the Contractor and also the City's advice and approval during the root pruning activities. P:\Street Oversizing\Ziegler Road Kechter Road Roundabout\Bid Docs\Construction Specs\General Reqs General Reqs. - 19 Ziegler Road / Kechter Road Roundabout Project Date: March 8, 2006 E. No damaging attachments, wires, signs, permits or other objects may be fastened by any means to any tree preserved on this project. F. Violation of Specifications and Penalties for Damaging Trees: Any violation of these specifications will lead to penalties based on the type of violation and/or the resulting damages, and may be grounds for the termination of this contract. The penalties will be assessed based on the amount of damage done and the total value of that tree, or group of trees, prior to the damage. The minimum penalty will be $100.00. Penalties for any damage will be based on the total value of the tree as determined by the City Forestry Division staff and the severity of the damage as a proportion of the total value of that tree. This could include up to the full value of the tree. As an example, there are two American Elm trees to be preserved on another project. They are valued at $7,960 and $6,667 for the south and north trees respectively. The south tree is approximately 100 inches in circumference, therefore each inch is worth one -hundredth of the value, or $79.60 per inch. Similarly, the north tree is 91 inches in circumference, making each inch worth $73.26. To extend this to penalties paid, if one inch of the bark on the south tree is scuuffed, the penalty would be $100 (the minimums allowed); if two inches are damaged, the penalty would be $159.20 and so on up to 50 % of the circumference of the trunk. If 50% or more is damaged, the fill value of the tree will be assessed as co- penalty. (This example serves to illustrate how damages will be assessed). This method of assessing penalties will be applicable to all trees not marked for removal on the project, accidental poisoning and improper pruning.

A special bidding procedure will be used to determine the successful bidder for this project. This procedure takes into account the price offerings from the bidder and the time the bidder intends to take to substantially complete the work. The work is substantially complete when: (1) all work requiring lane or shoulder closures or other traffic obstructions'is complete; (2) traffic is following the lane arrangement shown on the plans for the finished roadway; (3) all pavement construction, joint sealing, and shoulder embankment is complete; (4) traffic control devices and pavement markings are in their final positions; (5) all pedestrian sidewalks and decorative crosswalks within the right-of-way are completed; and (6) all median work (hardscaping, topsoil and fabric) is completed. Work that does not conform to the Contract will not be accepted as substantially complete. Acceptance of the work as substantially complete will be determined in accordance with subsection 105.16(b). (a) Preparation of Proposal. The bidder shall establish the number of calendar days that will be required to substantially complete the work. The calendar day number shall be included in the bid proposal. This calendar day number multiplied by the daily cost shall be added to the total amount bid for the work items. The sum of these two amounts will be used to determine the lowest successful bidder according to the following formula: A + B x (the daily cost) = Contractor's bid for evaluation of the lowest successful bidder Where: A = Contractor's total bid for the work items B = Number of Calendar days required to substantially complete the work. Daily cost for this project = $2,072.00 The above formula will be used solely for the purpose of determining the lowest successful bidder and will have no effect on the actual total bid cost for completing the work. (b) Early Completion of the Work Incentive. If the Contractor substantially completes the work in less than the total number of days bid, an incentive will be paid to the Contractor. This incentive (I) will equal the number of calendar days bid (B) minus the actual number of calendar days required to substantially complete the work (C) multiplied by the daily cost. I = (B — C) x (the daily cost) The maximum incentive is limited to five percent of the Contractor's total bid for the work items (0.05 x A). (c) Late Completion of the Work Disincentive. If the number of calendar days required to substantially complete the work is in excess of the total number of calendar days bid, a disincentive will be deducted from payments made to the Contractor. This disincentive (D) will equal the actual number of calendar days required to substantially complete the work (C) minus the number of calendar days bid (B) multiplied by the daily cost. D = (C — B) x (the daily cost) END OF SECTION P:\Street Oversiang\Ziegler Road Kechter Road RoundaboutBid Docs\Construction Spe&Technical Specs Technical Specs - 3 Ziegler Road!

This item applies to natural ground or embankment and shall be constructed as specified herein and in conformity with the typical sections, lines and grades as shown on the plans or as established by the Engineer. MATERIALS A. Flyash - The flyash shall meet ASTM Specification 618, Section 3.2, when sampled and tested in accordance with Sections 4, 6, and 8 unless otherwise shown on the plans. Flyash shall be Class C designation containing a minimum of 25 percent CaCi. B. Water - The water used in the stabilized mixture shall be clean, clear, and free of sewage, vegetable matter, oil, acid, and alkali. Water known to be potable may be used without testing. All other sources shall be tested in accordance with AASHTO T-26 and approved by the Materials Engineer. EQUIPMENT A. The machinery, tools and equipment necessary for proper prosecution of the Work shall be on the project site and approved by the Engineer prior to the beginning of construction operations. All machinery, tools and equipment used shall be maintained in a satisfactory and workmanlike manner. B. Flyash shall be stored and handled in closed weatherproof containers until immediately before distribution on the road. If storage bins are used, they shall be completely enclosed. C. If Flyash is furnished in trucks, each truck shall have the weight of flyash certified on public scales or the Contractor shall place a set of standard platform truck scales or hopper scales at a location approved by the Engineer. D. All sheep foot compactors shall have all cleaner bars in working condition. E. At the direction of the on -site Engineer a water truck will be on site to support finish and tilling operation. CONSTRUCTION METHODS A. General It is the primary purpose of this specification to secure a completed course of treated material that contains the following: 1. Uniform flyash/soil mixture with no loose or segregated areas; 2. Uniform density and moisture content 3. Is well bound for its full depth P:\Street OversiangMegler Road Kechter Road RoundaboutBid Docs\Construction Specs\Technical Specs Technical Specs - 18 Ziegler Road / KechterRoad Roundabout Project Date: April 10, 2006 4. A smooth surface suitable for placing subsequent courses. It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to regulate the sequence of his work; to process a sufficient quantity of material to achieve full depth as shown on plans; to use the proper amounts of flyash; to maintain the work; and to rework the courses as necessary to meet the above requirements at no additional cost. Before other construction operations are initiated, the sub -grade shall be graded and shaped to enable the flyash treatment of materials in place, in conformance with the lines, grades, and thickness shown on the plans. Unsuitable soil or materials shall be removed and replaced with acceptable material. The sub -grade shall be firm and able to support, without displacement, the construction equipment and the compaction hereinafter specified. Soft or yielding sub -grade shall be corrected and made stable by scarifying, adding flyash, and compacting until it is of uniform stability. If the Contractor elects to use a trimming machine that will remove the sub -grade material accurately to the secondary grade, he will not be required to expose the secondary grade or windrow the material. However, the Contractor shall be required to roll the sub -grade, as directed by the Engineer, before using the trimming machine and correcting any soft areas that this rolling may reveal. This method will be permitted only where a machine is provided which will ensure that the material is cut uniformly to the proper depth and which has cutters that will plane the secondary grade to a smooth surface over the entire width of the cut. The machine shall be of such design that visible indication is given at all times that the machine is cutting to the proper depth. B. Application The flyash shall be spread by an approved spreader at the rate of 12%, dry weight of soil as shown on the plans and as directed by the Engineer. A motor grader shall not be used to spread the flyash. The flyash shall be distributed at a uniform rate and in such manner as to reduce the scattering of fly sh by wind to a minimum. Flyash shall not be applied when wind conditions, in the opinion of the Engineer, are such that blowing flyash becomes objectionable to traffic or adjacent property owners. During final mixing, water shall be added to the materials as directed by the Engineer, until the proper moisture content has been secured. Water shall be added through the pulverizing machine or method acceptable to the Engineer to develop a uniform, controlled rate addition of the needed moisture. Initial mixing after the addition of flyash will be accomplished dry or with a minimum of water to prevent flyash balls. Final moisture content of the mix, prior to compaction, shall not exceed the optimum moisture Content of the mix by more than two percent nor by less than the optimum by more than four percent. Should the natural moisture content of the soil be above the specified range, aeration of the soil may be required prior to addition of the flyash. C. Mixing The soil and flyash shall be thoroughly mixed by approved rotary mixers or other approved equipment, and the mixing continued until, in the opinion of the Engineer, a homogeneous, friable mixture of soil and flyash is obtained, free from all clods or lumps. Water required to achieve the specified moisture content for the mixture should be added after initial mixing. If the soil flyash mixture contains clods, they shall be reduced in size by raking, blading, disking, harrowing, scarifying or the use of other approved pulverization methods so that when all non -slaking aggregates retained on the No. 4 sieve are removed, the remainder of the material shall meet the P:\Street Oversiang\Ziegler Road Kechter Road RoundaboutBid DoesTonstruction Specs\Technical Specs Technical Specs - 19 Ziegler Road / KechterRoad RoundabDut Project Date: April 10, 2006 following requirements when tested at the field moisture condition or dry by laboratory sieves: Minimum Passing: linch sieve 100 percent Minimum Passing: No. 4 sieve 60 percent D. Compaction Compaction of the mixture shall begin immediately after mixing of the flyash and be completed within one hour following addition of flyash and water. The material shall be sprinkled as necessary to maintain the optimum moisture. Compaction of the mixture shall begin at the bottom and shall continue until the entire depth of mixture is uniformly compacted to a specified density. All non -uniform (too wet, too dry or insufficiently treated) areas which appear shall be corrected immediately by scarifying the areas affected, adding or removing material as required and reshaping the re -compacting by sprinkling and rolling. The surface of the course shall be maintained in a smooth condition, free from undulations and ruts, until other work is placed thereon or the work is accepted. The stabilized section shall be compacted to the extent necessary to provide the density specified below: Description For flyash treated sub -grade, existing sub- Not less than 95 percent maximum pry density base or existing base that will receive (ASTM D-698) subsequent sub -base or base courses For flyash treated sub -base or base that will Not less than 95 percent maximum dry density receive surface course (ASTM D-698) In addition to the requirements specified for density, the full depth of the material shown on the plans shall be compacted to the extent necessary to remain firm and stable under construction equipment. After each section is completed, the Engineer will make tests as necessary. If the material fails to meet the density requirements, the Engineer may require it to be reworked as necessary to meet those requirements or require the Contractor to change his construction methods to obtain required density on the next section. Throughout this entire operation, the shape of the course shall be maintained with a blade, and the surface, upon completion, shall be smooth and in conformity with the typical section shown on the plans and to the established lines and grades. Grading should be terminated within two hours after blending of the flyash. Should the material, due to any reason or cause, lose the required stability, density and finish before the next course is placed or the work is accepted, it shall be reprocessed, re -compacted and refinished at the sole expense of the Contractor. Reprocessing shall follow the same pattern as the initial stabilization, including the addition of flyash. E. Finishing, Curing and Preparation for Surfacing After the final course of the treated sub -grade, sub -base or base has been compacted; it shall be brought the required lines and grades in accordance with the typical sections. 1. The resulting base surface shall be thoroughly rolled with a pneumatic tire roller and "clipped", "skinned" or "tight bladed" by a power grader to a depth of approximately 3 inch, removing all loosened stabilized material from the section. Re -compaction of the loose material should not be attempted. The surface shall then be thoroughly compacted with the pneumatic roller, adding small increments of moisture as needed during rolling. If plus No. 4 aggregate is present in the mixture; one complete coverage of the section with the fat wheel roller shall be made immediately after the "clipping" operation.

Surface compaction and finishing shall proceed in such a manner as to produce, in not more than two hours, a smooth, closely knit surface, free of cracks, ridges or loose material conforming to the crown, grade and line shown on the plans. 2. After the flyash treated course has been finished as specified herein, the surface shall be protected against rapid drying by either of the following curing methods for a period of not less than three days or until the surface or subsequent courses are placed: (a) Maintain a thorough and continuously moist condition by sprinkling. (b) Apply a two-inch layer of earth on the completed course and maintain in a moist condition. (c) Apply an asphalt membrane to the treated course, immediately after same is completed. The quantity and type of asphalt approved for use by the Engineer shall be sufficient to completely cover and seal the total surface of the base between crown lines and all voids. If the Contractor elects to use this method, it shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to protect the asphalt membrane from being picked up by traffic by either sanding or dusting the surface of same. The asphalt membrane may remain in place when the proposed surface or other base courses are placed. Asphaltic emulsions are not acceptable for the asphaltic membrane.

The criteria for the mix design is as follows: 730,000 HBP Grading S & SG ESAL's: Ziegler Road (Shallow Pond Drive to Trilby Road) = 912,500 ESAL's: Trilby Road (Ziegler Road to Southwest Coner of Kinard Junior High School) _ Binder : Grading S-100-PG 64-28 / Grading SG-100 — PG 58-28 Designed according to the most recent set of SUPERPAVE Specifications available. SEE TABLE 403-1 NEXT PAGE FOR DESIGN CRITERIA A request made in writing by the Contractor for changes in the job mix formula will be considered by the Engineer. The Contractor shall prepare a quality control plan outlining the steps taken to minimize segregation of HBP. This plan shall be submitted to the Engineer and approved prior to beginning the paving operations. When the Engineer determines that segregation is unacceptable, the paving shall stop and the cause of segregation shall be corrected before paving operations will be allowed to resume. The Contractor will not be allowed to clean the paver hoper during paving operations. Reclaimed materials will not be allowed in Hot Bituminous Pavement. A maximum of 20% reclaimed material will be allowed for HBP Grading SG. The Contractor shall construct the work such that all roadway pavement placed prior to the time paving operations end for the year, shall be completed to the full thickness required by the plans. The Contractor's Progress Schedule shall show the methods to be used to comply with this requirement.
