2023 Plant Mix - Primary

Patching repair shall consist of the removal of areas of unsound pavement material as indicated on attached patching locations and/or as determined by the Engineer and replacing these areas with asphalt concrete. Asphalt Patching shall consist of the removal of specified areas of the remaining asphalt thickness of the pavement section and replacing such areas with asphalt concrete as specified in the Contract or as directed by the Engineer. In the event an Asphalt Patch fails prior to overlay, the Contractor will be responsible for removing and replacing the failed patch at no cost to VDOT. Asphalt patches shall be placed according to Section 315 of the Specifications. The existing defective pavement shall be removed with a minimum disturbance to the base material and the faces of the remaining pavement shall be cut to a smooth, vertical face without ragged edges. The existing pavement shall be removed by planning (milling), grinding, saw cutting or any other approved method to the specified depth within the full perimeter of the designated area. A tack coat of CRS-2 (or other asphalt material approved by the Engineer) at a rate of 0.2 gallon per square yard shall be applied to surface and vertical faces of exposed pavement. Exposed base material shall be primed with liquid asphalt CRS-2 at an application rate of 0.4 gallon per square yard. Manual placement will be permitted for installation of the asphalt concrete. Control strip and pavement profile measurements will be waived. Variation between surfaces at the run on and run off joints shall not be more than 1/4 inch when tested with a 10-foot straight edge. The existing pavement materials that are removed shall be hauled away from the repair site immediately, and disposed of properly by the Contractor according to Section 106.04 of the Specifications. Asphalt Patching will be measured and paid for at the contract unit price per ton of the mix specified. This payment shall be full compensation for furnishing materials and installing pavement patches, complete in place. The work shall include, but not be limited to supplying materials, removing existing pavement (saw cutting, milling, grinding) disposing of existing material, delivery and placement of asphalt concrete, and all labor, equipment, tools, and incidentals necessary to fully complete the work. Liquid Asphalt tack or Prime will not be measured for separate payment and the cost thereof to furnish and apply the liquid asphalt shall be considered incidental to the bid price for asphalt patching.
