Construction: <br />a. Area shall be swept clean prior to setting infrared heating unit. <br />b. Work shall only be performed when the ambient and surface temperatures are 45°F or <br />above. <br />c. The infrared heating unit shall be lowered to within six to nine inches of the existing <br />pavement. The heated area must extend at least six inches outside of the area of repair. <br />Apply heat to the area continuously until the surface is heated to a depth of approximately <br />two inches. When the existing bituminous surface can be worked with a rake, proper heat <br />penetration has been achieved. <br />d. Under windy conditions, metal shields will be placed on three sides to block the wind and <br />provide for an even heated surface. <br />e. Etch an outline of the repair area with the back of a rake at least three inches beyond the <br />edges of the repair area. Scarify the existing bituminous surface within the repair area to <br />the full heated depth. Ensure that a vertical surface around the edge of the repair area is <br />achieved by rake. <br />f. Remove existing bituminous material (as required by adjacent grades) to allow for the <br />placement of new bituminous mix within the area of the patch. Rejuvenating agent shall <br />be applied at a rate of 0.10 to 0.20 gal 1 syd prior to placement of new bituminous material. <br />g. Reshape patched area by hand with rake and lute to match grade of existing adjacent <br />pavement. After reshaping, reapply rejuvenating agent at a rate of 0.10 to 0.20 gal / syd. <br />h. Outside perimeter shall be compacted as soon as possible to ensure thermal bonding. <br />Compact new paving with the specified roller to the full depth of the heated patch. <br />Compacted surface shall be smooth in texture and shall have positive drainage matching <br />the slope of the existing adjacent pavement. <br />i. Any potholes within the patched area shall be cleaned, sides dressed to vertical, overfilled <br />with new bituminous material, and compacted to match existing surface prior to application <br />of infrared heat. <br />j. Locations for infrared patches will be determined after award by the Owner. <br />k. For a four inch patch depth: <br />i. Heat pavement to a two inch depth and etch the repair area outline as detailed above. <br />Remove all old bituminous material to a depth of two inches. <br />ii. Heat and patch an additional two inch depth as detailed above. Do not compact. Add <br />new bituminous material to fill the patch area. <br />iii. Reshape patched area by hand with rake and lute to match grade of existing adjacent <br />pavement. After reshaping, reapply rejuvenating agent at a rate of 0.10 to 0.20 gal I <br />syd. <br />iv. Outside perimeter shall be compacted as soon as possible to ensure thermal bonding. <br />Compact new paving with the specified roller to the full depth of the heated patch. <br />Compacted surface shall be smooth in texture and shall have positive drainage <br />matching the slope of the existing adjacent pavement. <br />4. Method of Measurement & Basis of Payment: <br />a. Payment for infrared patching shall be made at the unit price set forth in the proposal for <br />the specified depth of patch. <br />b. Contractor is to provide unit price for an additional 2 inch depth of patching per 5 ft. x 7 ft. <br />patch. <br />5. The item(s) will be paid for as specified in the proposal as follows: <br />Patch, Infrared, 5 ft. by 7 ft. by 2 in. depth ...................EA <br />Patch, Infrared, 5 ft, by 7 ft. additional 2 in. depth .......... EA <br />XX. COMPOSITION OF BITUMINOUS MIXTURES <br />A. Prevailing Specifications: 2024, INDOT Standard Specifications Section 402 <br />B. Additions: <br />1. All material used shall be HMA Surface PG 64-28, with up to 25% RAP, no RAS and <br />incorporating only limestone aggregate, at no additional cost to the owner. <br />2. The contractor shall submit a job mix formula for approval five (5) working days prior to the first <br />patch being placed. The contractor will not be allowed to proceed with the placement of asphalt <br />without an approved job mix formula- The contractor shall notify the city 46 hours prior to <br />Version 311 5/2024 Page - 7 Public Works Quote <br />Scanned with CamScanner <br />
