(e) Ditches shall be excavated by the Contractor, in such places and of such dimensions as the Superintendent of Streets may direct, at the contract of price for excavation. (f) All material from cuts shall be placed in embankment as directed by the Superintendent of Streets. It shall be optional with the Superintendent of Streets to allow the Contractor to waste material from cutes and construct embankment from borrowed material in lieu of the same,but in such cases the work shall be estimated for payment the same was if the material had been hauled from excavation to embankment, as above contemplated. (g) Where the amount of material excavated from the roadway is insufficient to make the embankment,the extra material required shall be furnished by the Contractor from borrow pits. If borrow pits are located within the lines of the road to be improved,their location, cross-section and grades shall be as approved by the Superintendent of Streets. (h) When the quantity of excavation exceeds that required to make embankments,the surplus shall be wasted or used to widen embankments, as the Superintendent of Streets may direct. (i) Embankments shall be formed of suitable material and carried up full width in layers not to exceed six inches in thickness, and the teams shall be made to travel as evenly as possible over the whole surface of each layer both coming and going. 0) When the depth of fill is greater than two feet the Superintendent of Streets may require the Contractor to water the embankment and keep it in a moist condition as built up. (1) The entire roadway shall be plowed and broken up where directed by the Engineer,to allow new and old material to bond together. (m) Embankments shall be carried to such heights above grade to such increased width as the Superintendent of Streets may deem necessary for shrinkage and compression, and they must be maintained by the Contractor to the proper height, dimension and slope until the work finally accepted. (n) Excavations and embankments shall be finished with all slopes cut true and straight in conformity with the lines and grades of slope directed by Engineer, and all slopes, whether old or new, shall be left with neat and even surfaces. (o) The length of a gross haul shall be determined by the distance from the center of any mass in place before excavation to the center of the same mass after ORD. 113 3 being deposited in proper place embankment. When such distance is 1,000 feet or less, no payment for overhaul shall be made, it being understood that a"free haul" of 1,000 feet is covered by the contract price for excavation. The overhaul shall be the gross haul, less 1,000 feet. (p) The contract price per cubic yard for excavation shall include the excavation, loading,transportation and deposit of the material in accordance with these specifications, and also all grubbing, cleaning, culvert excavation, ditching and all other work incidental to the grading.

(s) Excavation in excess of cross-section authorized by the Engineer shall not be paid for. (t) Overhaul shall be paid for at the rate of one cent per cubic yard per hundred(100) feet over overhaul. SHAPING ROADBED Section 14. (a)After cuts and fills are graded and before the pavement or any shoulder material is placed,the road shall be graded to a true cross-section,as called for in the plan, and shall then be cultivated to a depth of not less than six (6) inches and thoroughly watered and tamped with a petrolithic tamper until hard and unyielding. (b) Depressions shall be filled with additional and satisfactory material and watered and tamped as before. If necessary,plowing,watering and tamping shall be repeated until the roadbed and shoulders are properly compacted. (c) After the tamping process is satisfactorily completed the roadbed shall be rolled with a roller weighing not less than 300 pounds to the inch width of rolls, until uniformly hard and smooth. As finished,the roadbed shall conform to the grades and lines given by the Engineer and to the cross-section called for in the plan. The Contractor may finish the shoulders to the required grade after the pavement has been completed. (d) Pavement shall not be laid until the roadbed therefore is in a condition acceptable to the Superintendent of Streets. (e) The contract price for shaping roadbed shall include all the work required to properly prepare the roadbed for the pavement and to compact and shape the shoulders of the roadway,not otherwise specifically provided for in these specifications. FORMS FOR CONCRETE PAVEMENT Section 15. (a)After the roadbed has been prepared, as hereinbefore specified, forms shall be set at the outside lines of the concrete pavement and securely supported by substantial stakes.

(h) The mixing of the ingredients of the concrete shall be performed in such a manner as to secure their uniform distribution throughout the mass. If this work be done by hand,water tight platforms or boxes shall be used to prevent the waste of cement. (i) If a machine mixer is used, a kind shall be employed into which materials, including the water, can be precisely and regularly proportioned, and which will produce a concrete uniform in consistency and color and with the coarse aggregate and water thoroughly mixed and incorporated with the mortar. The machine, if used to mix concrete for road pavement, shall be provided with a devise for depositing the concrete in place with out a segregation of the ingredients. 0) The proportions of water to be used in mixing concrete shall be adapted to the nature of the work. Sufficient water shall be used to secure the greatest resulting density of the mass while maintaining its proper uniformity of texture. (k) Concrete,when mixed, shall be immediately deposited in place, without any separation of ingredients and thoroughly rammed,tamped or spaded in layers not more than six inches in depth,until all voids are filled and free mortar appears upon ORD. 113 7 the surface. Concrete which has taken its initial set, shall no,under any circumstances,be placed in any work. (1) Concrete shall not be placed under water without the consent of the Superintendent of Streets, and in such case,it shall be deposited in a way that will prevent the separation of the fine and coarse aggregate. Concrete shall not be laid in running water. (m) Any voids discovered in the surface of the concrete shall be replaced by removing the defective work and refilling the space with one to one cement mortar. Exposed surfaces shall be finished smooth and uniform, by removing all form marks and imperfections. A neat cement grout shall be applied over the entire surface, if required by the Superintendent of Street. (n) When joining new concrete with concrete already set, the surface shall be cleansed, roughed,thoroughly watered and coated with a thin cement mortar, or dusted with dry cement. (o) The concrete in each floor slab or girder shall be placed continuously. The concrete in arches shall be placed in a manner acceptable to the Superintendent of Streets. (p) Forms for concrete shall be smooth,tight,true to the required lines and grades, and of sufficient strengths to resist springing out of shape during the placing of concrete. All mortar and dirt shall be removed from forms previously used and they shall be drenched with water immediately before concrete is placed against them. Forms shall not be removed until the Superintendent of Streets has authorized it and the manner and order or removal. (q) Reinforcing rods shall be placed as shown on the plans and in such manner as to be held firmly in place until embedded in the concrete. (r) For six days after being placed,the concrete shall be kept moist; it shall be protected against injury until it has thoroughly set. (s) The aggregate employed for making concrete shall be gravel mixed with the described proportion of sand and this aggregate shall be composed of material of siliceous, igneous or granitic character and shall be clean, sound and tough and free from deleterious materials. (t) Gravel shall consist of materials which will pass a screen having circular perforations two and one-half(2 1/2)inches in diameter and be retained on a screen having circular perforations one-quarter(1/4) inch in diameter. The proportions of the various sizes of stone in the gravel shall be such as to reduce the percent of voids, in a measured quantity of gravel,to a minimum. In general a regular gradation in size of stone will most nearly meet the requirements in this respect. (u) Sand shall be of such size that all of it will pass a screen having circular perforations one-quarter(1/4) inch in diameter. It shall be so graded in size of grains that not more than eighty(80)per cent nor less than fifty(50)per cent will pass a No. 30 Commercial Sieve, and not more than seven(7)per cent will pass a No. 100 Commercial Sieve.
