B. Additions: 1.Equipment: a.Pavement Restoration Vehicle (PRV): PRV shall be a truck mounted, self-contained pavement maintenance heating system equipped with a fuel system and a heated chamber capable of maintaining the fresh asphalt at a temperature of 300 degrees or higher. b. The adjustable height infrared heating unit may be a truck mounted (preferred) or trailer mounted to the PRV. The unit shall be equipped with a chamber or chambers capable of heating the existing bituminous pavement to a workable condition without oxidation or burning. There shall be no flame in direct contact with the existing bituminous surface. c. Compaction shall be achieved with a self-propelled steel drum vibratory roller of sufficient size to provide complete compaction to the full heated depth of the patched area (3000 psi to a depth of 10 inches). d. Contractor shall not place old, removed material into the container on the PRV holding new bituminous material, or into any other container holding new bituminous material. 2. Materials: a. New bituminous material for patching shall be HMA Surface No. 11, PG 64-22, with no recycled shingles (RS) materials and incorporating only limestone aggregate, or equal as approved by the Engineer. b. New material shall be added to all patched areas. c. Rejuvenating agent shall be an asphaltene/maltene restorative agent such as Reclamite Asphalt Rejuvenating Agent or equal as approved by the Engineer. 3. Construction: a. Area shall be swept clean prior to setting infrared heating unit. b. Work shall only be performed when the ambient and surface temperatures are 45°F or above. c. The infrared heating unit shall be lowered to within six to nine inches of the existing pavement. The heated area must extend at least six inches outside of the area of repair. Apply heat to the area continuously until the surface is heated to a depth of approximately two inches. When the existing bituminous surface can be worked with a rake, proper heat penetration has been achieved. d. Under windy conditions, metal shields will be placed on three sides to block the wind and provide for an even heated surface. e. Etch an outline of the repair area with the back of a rake at least three inches beyond the edges of the repair area. Scarify the existing bituminous surface within the repair area to the full heated depth. Ensure that a vertical surface around the edge of the repair area is achieved by rake. f. Remove existing bituminous material (as required by adjacent grades) to allow for the placement of new bituminous mix within the area of the patch. Rejuvenating agent shall be applied at a rate of 0.10 to 0.20 gal / syd prior to placement of new bituminous material. g. Reshape patched area by hand with rake and lute to match grade of existing adjacent pavement. After reshaping, reapply rejuvenating agent at a rate of 0.10 to 0.20 gal / syd. h. Outside perimeter shall be compacted as soon as possible to ensure thermal bonding. Compact new paving with the specified roller to the full depth of the heated patch. Compacted surface shall be smooth in texture and shall have positive drainage matching the slope of the existing adjacent pavement. i. Any potholes within the patched area shall be cleaned, sides dressed to vertical, overfilled with new bituminous material, and compacted to match existing surface prior to application of infrared heat. 4. Method of Measurement & Basis of Payment: a. Payment for infrared patching shall be made at the unit price set forth in the proposal for the specified depth of patch. b. Quantities for this item are estimated at 5% of the total patches. Actual quantities purchased may be greater or less than the quantity in the proposal. 5. The item will be paid for as specified in the proposal as follows: Patch, Infrared, 5 ft. by 7 ft. by Version 4/2/2019 Page - 8 Public Works Quote
