tion to said -work and the construction thereof, that .

arise relative to the execution of the Contract on the
part of the Contractor; that his decisions and find-
. -ings shall be the conditions precedent to the right of
the parties hereto to arbitration or to any action on
•- - the-Contract and to the rights of the Contractor to
receive any money under this Contract; provided, how-
ever, that should the Engineer render any decision or
• give any direction which in the opinion of either .

elective manners:
•
a. The Ownet may thereupon employ suhorceoof,wmrt-
ers and use such machinery, equipment,
erials, and supplies • as said Owner may deem neces-
sary to 'complete the work and charge the expense
of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, mater -

published two or-more times in a newspaper having
a general 'circulation in the county of location of
the work, may let the contract for the completion
of the work under substantially the same terms and
conditions which are provided in this Contract.
In, case of any increase in cost to the Owner under
the new contract as compared to what would have
been the cost under this Contract such increase
shall be dharged to the Contractor, and the Surety
shall be and'remain bound therefor. However,
should the cost to complete any such new contract
prove to be less than whatould have been the
coSt to conplete under this Contract, the Contrac
tor or his Surety shall.be credited therewith.

which shall be used when necessary to keep the wheels wet and prevent adherence of the bituminous . 't
material to them. • .
The pneumatic roller shall consist of pneumatic tires arranged in a manner so as to provide a
satisfactory compacting unit. The roller shall have an effective rolling width of at least sixty (60) inches,
and shall give a compression of at least 275 pounds per inch of width of tread when fully loaded. The
roller and the operating power unit shall meet the approval of the Engineer. •
Water truck with pump shall be available at the stockpiles to keep the aggregate in a wetted condition
before spreading, as directed by the Engineer.
Rotary brooms shall be suitable for cleaning the surfaces of bituminous pavements-
312.4 Construction Methods
(1) Cracks and Holes -
Cracks and holes will be patched by the contractor prior to seal coat operations. Material -
used to do this patch work will be hot mix, hot lay asphaltic concrete, or other asphaltic
• materials as approved by the Engineer.
(2) Cleaning Existing Surfaces • •
. Prior to placing the seal coat, loose dirt, and other objectionable material shall be removed
from the existing surface. The surface will be cleaned with a rotary broom. Hand brooms will
be used in areas not accessible to rotary brooms. The Engineer must approve all streets
• before application of•any asphalt. _: -
(3) Application of Asphaltic Material
Immediately following the preparation of the existing surface by cleaning, the asphaltic
material shall be so applied that uniform distribution is obtained at all points_ Skip streaks
on the pavement, due to defective distributor nozzles, will be re -shot with hand operated
sprayer. •
Building paper shall be spread as directed by the Engineer at designated areas on the
surface for a sufficient distance back from the end of each application so that flow through •
sprays may be started and stopped on the paper, and so that all sprays will operate
properly over the entire length being treated. Building paper so used shall be immediately
removed and loaded on a truck. At the end of each day, the paper shall be disposed of at a
site approved by the Engineer. . . ' •
Application temperatures will be as prescribed in Item 301, "Asphalts, Oils and Emulsions."
When a street to be sealed is continuous through several intersections, sealed area will
include all spandrels and stub -outs, unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. Spandrels
will be hand - sprayed.. : w.
The contractor shall be required to seal all spandrels at the same time the adjacent streets'
are sealed, unless otherwise approved in writing by the Engineer- .
.. all applications, the surface of adjacent structures shall be protected in such a
manner as to prevent their being splattered or marred. Building paper shall be spread on all
manholes, valve boxes, junction boxes, etc. as directed by the Engineer to protect the sur-
face from asphaltic materials. The asphaltic material shall not be applied until the cover
aggregate is available and ready to spread with assurance of continuous operation.
No asphaltic material shall be placed which cannot be covered and rolled during daylight
hours.
(4) Spreading the Aggregate
The covering material in the quantity specified shall be spread uniformly over the
bituminous material as soon after application as possible. The aggregate shall be spread in
the same width of application as for the ae. ltic material, and spread uniformly with the
aggregate spreading equipment.
1
1� ,•.■
i=: J
Trucks spreading aggregate shall be operated backward so that bituminous material will
be covered before truck wheels pass over it. The aggregate shall not be applied in such thick-
ness to cause blanketing �r stacking. Backspotting or sprinkling cover'ag gregatc shall be
done by hand spreading, which will be continued during the operations whenever necessary,
as directed by the Engineer.
Trucks used in hauling or spreading aggregate shall be measured by the Engineer in the
presence of the contractor and the volume of each determined. Trucks of unequal volume
will not be allowed. - • If the contra( tor employs a mechanical aggregate spreader in his seal operation, the spreader
will be operated in such a manner that the Engineer can determine. at all times during the
spreading operation the rate of application of the aggregate. •
(5) Brooming and Rolling •
Rolling shall be started as soon as sufficient aggregate is spread to prevent pick -up and
continued until no more aggregate can be worked into the surface. The surface shall he
blanket rolled with a flat wheel roller at least once. The contractor shall arrange his work
so that all flat wheel rolling of all cover aggregate applied that day is accomplished prior to
sundown. After completion of rolling with flat wheel roller, cover aggregate will be rolled
a minimum of four (4) complete coverages with pneumatic rollers. -
Julien of the rolling equipment specified, the contractor may, upon written permission from
the Engineer, operate other compacting equipment that will produce equivalent relative
compaction in the same period of time as the specified equipment. ,
-
. Rollers shall be maintained in good repair and operating condition and shall be approved by
the Engineer. • • •
•
The poney blading or drag - brooming should start as soon as possible after the rolling has
started and the surface has set sufficiently to prevent excessive marking of the seal surface.
Further poney blading or drag - brooming should be done as often as necessary to keep cover
aggregate uniformly distributed over the street surface. At no time shall there be less than
two pneumatic tire rollers on the job. The use of the poney blade or drag broom in connection
. with the rolling will be left to the opinion of the Engineer as to which gives the desired
_results.
The contractor will be responsible for maintaining all streets for 48 hours after each street.
has been seal coated. Maintenance will consist of brooming, rolling and adding more aggre-
gate as directed by the Engineer. .
•
(6) Asphaltic Material Contractor's Responsibility '
The contractor shall furnish vendor's certified Lest report for each carload, or equivalent, of
asphaltic material shipped for the project. The report shall be delivered to the Engineer,
before permission is anted for use of the material. •
gr :
Warning to Contractors
Attention is called to the fact that asphaltic materials are flammable. The utmost care
' shall be taken to prevent open flames from coming in contact with the asphaltic material or
the gases of same. The contractor shall be responsible for any fires or accidents which may
result from heating the asphaltic material., -
312.5 Traffic Control Facilities
The Contractor shall arrange the seal coat operation in such a manner as to avoid excessive inconven-
ience to the public in the seal coat area.
• The Contractor shall notify all abutting property owners along the street prior to seal coat operation_
312 -3
The Contractor shall have on the project site sufficient barricades, flag -men; and traffic control devices
to assure a minimum of inconvenience to traffic around the construction area. If such arrangements are
not made by the Contractor to the satisfaction of the Enp ncer, the seal coat operation shall not be
allowed to continue.
The Contractor shall on all streets, after the seal has been applied, post slow signs along these streets,
and maintain such signs for twenty -four (24) hours. If the Contractor so desires, the Traffic Engineer for
the City of Austin will crake such signs o s available. If the Contractor obtains such signs from the City,
the. Contractor will be held accountable to return all signs in good condition. All signs that are lost. or
damaged will be replaced in accordance with the specifications of the Traffic Engineer. Replacement will
be made before payment will be made on the final estimate.
Measurement & Payment
This item will be.paid for in the cubic yard unit price as set forth in
the BID SCHEDULE. This item shall include all materials, labor and

pavement, or used to level up small areas of an existing pavement or placed in small
irregular areas where the use of a finishing machine is not practical, the * finishing
machine may be eliminated when authorized by the •Engineer, provided a satisfactory
surface can be obtained by other approved methods. .
(d) Flush Structures ,
•
, Adjacent to flush curbs, gutters, liners and structures, the surface shall be finished
uniformly high so that when compacted it will be slightly above the edge of the curb
and flush structure.
(5) Compacting
(a) As directed by the Engineer, the pavement shall be compressed thoroughly and uni-
formly to the required density.
(b) Rolling with the three wheel and tandem rollers shall start longitudinally at, the sides and
proceed toward the center of the pavement, overlapping on successive trips by at. least •
half the width of the rear wheel unless othenviss directed by the Engineer. Alternate

by the Engineer. Rolling with pneumatic -tire roller shall be done as directed by the
Engineer. Polling shall be continued until no further compression can be obtained
and all roller marks are eliminated. If the Contractor elects, he may su',,stitute the
three axle tandem roller for the two axle tandem roller and /or the three wheel roller;
but in no case shall less than two rollers be in use on each job. Additional rollers shall
be provided if needed. The motion of the roller shall be slow enough at all times to
avoid displacement of the mixture. If any displacement occurs, it shall loe corrected
• at once by the use of rakes and of fresh mixtures where required. The roller shall not
be allowed to stand on pavement which has not been fully_ compacted. To prevent
adhesion of the surface mixture to the roller, the wheels shall be kept thoroughly
moistened with water, but an excess of water will not be permitted. All rollers must
be in good mechanical .condition. Necessary precautions shall be taken to prevent the
droping of gasoline, oil, grease or other foreign matter on the pavement, either when
the rollers are in operation or when standing.
In lieu of the tolling equipment specified, the Contractor may, upon written
permission from the Engineer. operate other compacting equipment that will produce
equivalent relative compaction as the specified equipment. If the substituted com-
paction equipment fails to produce the desired compaction as would be expected of
the specified equipment, as determined by the Engineer, its use shall be discontinued_
(e) In Place Density • - •
• It is the intent of this specification that. the material be placed and compacted to 95
percent of the density developed in the laboratory test and determined by Test
Method Tex- 207 -F. The Contractor shall furnish the Engineer with field specimens
for each 2,000 square yards or part thereof, of asphaltic concrete pavement placed
and shall also patch the surface where the specimen is taken with no extra payment
being made for this work. The Engineer will specify the location where the specimen
will be taken and the Contractor shall remove the specimen on the day following
placement of the asphaltic concrete pavement. The field specimens utilized for the in
place density testing may be either cores or sections of asphaltic pavement. Other
methods of determining in place density which correlate satisfactorily with those
results obtained through use of the test method Tex -207 -F may be used. In place
density tests are intended for compaction contiol tests. If the in place density of the
mixture produced has a value lower than that specified and in the - opinion of the
Engineer is not due to a change in the quality of the material, production may pro-
ceed with subsequent changes in the mix and /or construction operations until the
in place density equals or exceeds the specified density. .
(d) 1-land Tamping
The edge's of the•pavement along curbs, headers and similar structures, and all places
not accessible to the roller, or in such positions as will not allow thorough compaction
with the rollers, shall be thoroughly compacted with lightly oiled tamps.
(e) Rolling with the trench type roller will be required on widening areas in trenches and
other limited areas where satisfactory compaction cannot be obtained with the roller
specified or approved.
(6) Surface Tests
•
The surface of the pavement. after compression, shall be smooth and true to the establisher
line, grade and cross section, and when tested with a 10 foot straightedge placed parallel tc
the centerline of the roadway or tested by other equivalent and acceptable means, except a:
provided herein, the maximum deviation .hall not exceed 1/8 inch in 10 feet, and any poin-
in the surface not meeting this requirement shall he corrected as directed by the Engineer
The completed surface shall meet the approval of the Engineer for riding surface finish am
appearance.

( Opening to Traffic
340.7 Measurement
The pavement shall be opened to traffic when directed by the Engineer. The Contractor':
attention is directed to the fact that all construction traffic allowed on paverier-t open to the
public will be subject to the City Ordinances and State Laws governing traffic on street:
and highways.
Surface raveling, cracking and other defects shall be corrected at the Contractor'; expense a
