MILLING ASPHALT PAVEMENT <br />DESCRIPTION <br />Perform the work covered by this section including, but not limited to, milling and re-milling <br />the pavement at locations, depths, widths and typical sections indicated in the contract; <br />cleaning the milled surface; loading, hauling and stockpiling the milled material for use in <br />recycled asphalt mixtures; and disposal of any excess milled material. <br />Except where the milled material is used in the work or where otherwise directed, provide <br />areas outside the right of way to dispose of milled material, which shall be property of the <br />Contractor. <br />EQUIPMENT <br />Use a self-propelled unit capable of removing the existing asphalt pavement to the depths, <br />widths and typical sections shown in the contract. Use milling machines designed and built <br />exclusively for pavement milling operations and with sufficient power, traction and stability <br />to accurately maintain depth of cut and slope. Use milling machines equipped with <br />an electronic control system that will automatically control the longitudinal profile and cross <br />slope of the milled pavement surface. Accomplish this through the use of a mobile grade <br />reference, an erected string line, joint matching shoe, slope control systems or a combination <br />of approved methods. Use an erected fixed stringline when required by the contract. <br />Otherwise, use a mobile grade reference system capable of averaging the existing grade or <br />pavement profile over at least 30 ft. Use either a non-contacting laser or sonar type ski <br />systems with at least 4 referencing stations mounted on the milling machine at a length of at <br />least 24 ft. Coordinate the position of the grade control system such that the grade sensor is at <br />the approximate midpoint of the mobile reference system. Use a machine capable of leaving <br />a uniform surface suitable for handling traffic without damage to the underlying pavement <br />structure. Use a milling machine and other loading equipment capable of loading milled <br />material to be used in other parts of the work without segregation. <br />Provide additional equipment necessary to satisfactorily remove the pavement in the area of <br />manholes, water valves, curb, gutter and other obstructions. <br />Equip the milling equipment with a means of effectively limiting the amount of dust escaping <br />from the removal operation in accordance with Federal, State and local air pollution control <br />laws and regulations. <br />CONSTRUCTION METHODS <br /> Mill the existing pavement to restore the pavement surface to a uniform longitudinal profile <br />and cross section in accordance with typical sections shown in the plans. Where indicated in <br />the contract, remove pavement to a specified depth and produce a specified cross slope. Mill <br />intersections and other irregular areas unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. <br />The Contractor may elect to make multiple cuts to achieve the required depth of cut or cross <br />slope required by the plans. <br />105 <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 797C32F6-C1CE-44EB-BF17-813A5939396C
