PROPERTIES AND INSTALLATION OF PERMEABLE PROCESSED STONE: 3.5.1. Delivery Moisture Content 3.5.1 .l. Processed stone must contain 90% to 1 10% of the optimum moisture content to ensure that fines do not migrate in transit or during placement and to facilitate proper compaction. This is critical. The contractor shall ensure that aggregate leaving the source plant meet this requirement. The contractor is required to apply water to the processed stone on site to attain and maintain this minimum moisture content. 3.5.2. Handling & Placement 3.5.2.1. Prior to aggregate placement, remove any excess or contaminated backfill from the drainage trenches. 3.5.2.2. Should any separation of the materials occur, during any stage of the spreading or stockpiling, the Contractor must immediately remove and dispose of segregated material and correct or change handling procedures to prevent any further separation. Double handling of materials is not allowed. 3.5.2.3. The Contractor must utilize laser controlled equipment for the grading of the processed stone to ensure accuracy in the grade tolerances of +Ow' to -114" in ten feet (10'). 3.5.2.4. Install processed stone base, from sideline toward center-line, parallel to the composite drain network, to the lines and grades shown on the drawings. Under no circumstance shall the material be pushed more than 30' from the point of discharge. 3.5.2.5. The Contractor shall shape the complete surface of the processed stone to receive the elastic layer component and continue until the deviation from the required elevation does not exceed a maximum deviation from grade of '+O" to -114" in ten feet (IO'), when measured in any direction using a 10' straight-edge. 3.5.2.6. Each'layer must be spread uniformly with equipment that will not cause perceptible separation in gradation (segregation of the aggregates), preferably a self-propelled paving machine or small laser controlled low ground pressure (LPG) dozer. Use a laser guided road grader properly operated to provide a more uniform surface. 3.5.3. Compaction and Planarity 3.5.3.1. The processed stone shall be compacted to a minimum density of not less than 95% of maximum density as determined by ASTM D698 and measured using a nuclear method. Aviara Community Park - Community Park City Of Carlsbad NTD # 2000-0247-03 SYNTHETIC TURF - SUBSURFACE CONSTRUCTION ' 02792 - 6 3.5.3.2. Proof roll wherever possible and mark "soft spots" for additional compaction or correction. Use static tandem drum-type roller of not less than five (5) tons weight. Proof rolling operations must be preformed in the presence of a Geotechnical Engineer. 3.5.3.3. The finished surface shall not deviate (tolerance-to-grade) from designated compacted grade. This means that the surface shall not deviate more than 114'' in 10' (any direction) when placed under a 10 foot straight edge. This tolerance is required over the entire field. 3.5.3.4. Areas that deviate shall be marked with spray paint and corrected with 3/8"(minus) limestone or granite chips and rolled tight to achieve proper density. Such remedial actions shall be done by hand and rechecked by means of test procedures described above. This procedure shall be used to correct any small areas that show segregation. 3.5.4. Testing 3.5.4.1. The surface of the processed stone course shall be well drained at all times. No standing water shall be permitted at any time. The permeability of the aggregate shall be checked per Din 8035 Part 7 (preferred), ASTM 2434 (constant head), or ASTM D3385 (double-ring) testing methods. Test samples shall be taken (at a minimum of) one sample per every 5,000 square feet or as otherwise directed by the Owner's Representative. 3.5.4.2. All test results will be logged and documented by the Owner's Technical Representative or Geotechnical Engineer. If at any time the processed stone base does not meet specifications, it shall be the Contractor's responsibility to restore, at his expense, the processed stone base to the required grade, cross-section and density. 3.5.4.3. After the contractor has independently confirmed compliance with all the above tolerances (planarity and elevation verified by a licensed surveyor and compaction, gradation, & permeability verified by Geotechnical Engineer), he shall notify the appropriate party and schedule a final inspection for approval. The contractor shall make available an orbital laser system to the Owner for the inspection process. A topo shall be taken on a 10' grid and submitted to Owner prior to synthetic turf or padding installation. All survey costs associated with insuring compliance with all of the above tolerances shall be performed by the Contractor at no additional cost to the owner and shall be provided as necessary to insure such compliance subject to the sole discretion of the Engineer. 3.5.4.4. A survey shall be provided by a licensed surveyor with a minimum of 1500 survey points. Contractor must provide all project surveys. No additional compensation shall be granted for survey.
