arrangements made for the prompt repair and restoration of service, subject to the
requirements of Section 11(c)below.

construction schedules. In the event that required removal or relocation Work has
not been accomplished prior to construction at the location,the obstructing facility
may be removed or relocated by the Contractor at the expense of the utility
company.

whole shall be restored or reconstructed by the Contractor at the Contractor's sole expense. All
losses or damages arising from the nature of the Work to be done,from the action of the elements,
or from unforeseen circumstances or difficulties, shall be sustained by the Contractor; such losses
or damages shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility to fulfill the Contract and to deliver a
completed Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
The Contractor shall provide the Engineer and his representatives free access to any and
all parts of the Work, whether within the construction limits or at any place where material
intended for incorporation in the project is procured, produced, or manufactured. The Contractor

29. APPROVAL OF SUBCONTRACTORS.
The Contractor shall file with the City and the Engineer the names of all subcontractors to
whom the Contractor expects to sublet any portion of the Work, and shall not change
subcontractors without written approval of the City and the Engineer. The approval of

subcontractor fail to satisfactorily perform its portion of the Work, the City may annul and
terminate the contract of such subcontractor.
30. RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ENGINEER.
The fmdings and determinations of the Engineer on all questions pertaining to materials
and workmanship or as to interpretation of the Drawings and Specifications shall be final and
binding on all parties to the Contract.
31. INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS.
The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is called for by one shall be as
binding as though called for by all. In case of actual or alleged disagreement or discrepancy

part of the Work not meeting Contract requirements. Inspectors shall have no authority to deviate
from or to relax the Specifications without written permission of the Engineer or to delay the Work
by failing to inspect or field test any of the Work and materials with reasonable promptness.
The Inspector will maintain a project record showing the chronological sequence of
progress, and will prepare such progress reports as required during construction and at monthly
intervals will prepare,and submit to the City,periodic payment estimates based on the amount and
value of all Work performed to date by the Contractor.
33. WORK AFFECTED BY WEATHER.
The Inspector may order such parts of the Work suspended should the weather or season

advantage of all parties concerned.
35. USE OF COMPLETED PORTIONS.
The City shall have the right to take possession of and use any completed portion or usable
unit of the Work at any time, but such possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of
any Work not constructed or completed in accordance with the Contract Documents. If such prior
use delays the completion or increases the cost of the Work,the Contractor shall be entitled to such
extension of time or extra compensation, or both, as the Engineer may determine. The City, in
taking possession prior to final acceptance, shall agree to abide by the Engineer's decision relative
to responsibility for damages to the Work during the period of such prior possession and use.
36. VARIATIONS, CHANGES AND MODIFICATIONS.
The Work contemplated in the Contract Documents may be subject to such changes as
normally occur during construction. The Engineer, as authorized by the City, may order minor
variations in the Work,provided such variations are consistent with the intent of the Drawings and
Specifications, and improve or expedite the Work.
The Engineer may, without written order or other formality, correct obvious errors in the
Drawings and Specifications or make such minor adjustments as are required to adapt the Work to
existing conditions or circumstances, provided such corrections and revisions are consistent with
the intent of the Drawings and Specifications, and do not materially affect the total Contract Price.
The City reserves the right to make such changes in the Drawings, the Specifications, and
other changes in the Contract quantities as may be considered necessary or desirable; provided
Revised 1-11-18 52
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS

39. CITY'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE CONTRACT.
(a) The occurrence of any one or more of the following events will justify termination
for cause:
i. The Contractor's persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with
the Contract Documents (including, but not limited to, failure to supply
sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment);
ii. The Contractors persistent disregard of laws, ordinances, or regulations, or
the directions of the Engineer; or
iii. The Contractor's violation in any substantial way of any provisions of the
Contract Documents.
(b) If one or more of the events identified in Section 39(a) above occur,the City may,
after giving the Contractor and its surety ten(10)days written notice of its intent to

• right to complete the Contract, and:
Revised 1-11-18 53
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS
GENERAL CLAUSES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
i. Exclude the Contractor from the Site, and take possession of the Work and
of all the Contractor's tools, appliances, construction equipment, and
machinery at the Site,and use the same to the full extent they could be used
by the Contractor (without liability to the Contractor for trespass or
conversion);
ii. Incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the Site or for
which the City has paid the Contractor but which are stored elsewhere; and
iii. Complete the Work as the City may deem expedient.
(c) If the City proceeds as provided in subsection (b) above, the Contractor shall not
be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is completed. If the
unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds all claims, costs,losses, and damages
(including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys,
and other professionals and all court costs) sustained by the City arising out of or
relating to completing the Work,such excess will be paid to the Contractor. If such
claims, costs,losses, and damages exceed such unpaid balance,the Contractor shall
pay the difference to the City. When exercising any rights or remedies under this
section, the City shall not be required to obtain the lowest price for the Work
performed.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Contractor's services will not be terminated if
the Contractor begins within ten(10)days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate
to correct its failure to perform and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within
no more than thirty(30) days of receipt of said notice.
(e) If the Contractor's services have been terminated by the City, the termination will
not affect any rights or remedies of the City against the Contractor then existing or
which may thereafter accrue. Any retention or payment of moneys due the
Contractor by the City will not release the Contractor from liability.
40. PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR.
Five days prior to the City's first regularly scheduled meeting of each month a periodic
estimate,based on Work completed or on receipted invoices for approved materials and equipment
stored at the project site, shall be prepared by the Engineer. Periodic estimates for a lump sum
Contract will be based on an itemized breakdown of all Work included in the Contract, prepared
by the Contractor, and submitted to the Engineer for approval prior to preparation of the initial
periodic estimate. The breakdown shall include all costs in connection with each major
classification of construction items and shall show quantities, unit prices and extensions, the sum
of which shall be the total amount of the Contract. In making partial payments,ten percent(10%)
will be retained from each payment. Upon the Engineer's certification of the Project's final
completion and readiness for final payment pursuant to Section 45(b)below,the Owner shall make
payment of retainage. In measuring Work for payment the actual length, width, depth, area,
Revised 1-11-18 54
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS
GENERAL CLAUSES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
contents, or number shall be considered, and the length shall be measured along the centerline of
the Work whether straight or curved. No extras of any kind will be allowed unless covered by
written order or agreement specifically describing such extras.
41. FORCE ACCOUNT.
Where it is specified, or agreed during the course of the Work, that any portion of the
construction shall be done by "force account," the Contractor shall keep an accurate record of all
materials, labor, and equipment used and shall furnish the Inspector a copy of each day's record
within twenty-four (24) hours to permit an accurate check thereof. The City shall pay for such
construction at the actual cost to the Contractor of materials and labor, including the costs of
insurance, social security, taxes and bonds, chargeable to this portion of the Work; plus fifteen
percent(15%) for superintendence, overhead, and the use of tools and appliances.
The use of equipment on such construction shall be paid for at rental rates recommended
by the Association of General Contractors, modified for Kansas by the Kansas Department of
Transportation; such price and payment being full compensation for all costs in connection with
operation,repair, maintenance, overhead, depreciation, and profit.
42. EXTENSION OF CONTRACT TIMES.
(a) DELAYS CAUSED OTHER THAN BY WEATHER. If the Contractor is delayed at
• any time in the commencement or progress of the Work by an act or neglect of the City,
or of a separate contractor employed by the City; or by labor disputes, fire, unusual
delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the Contractor's
reasonable control that the Engineer determines may justify delay, excluding the
occurrence of unusually severe weather at the Site, then the Contract Time shall be
extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as the Engineer may determine, if
such adjustment is essential to the Contractor's ability to complete the Work within the
Contract Times. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Contractor acknowledges and
agrees that adjustments in the Contract Time will be permitted for a delay only to the
extent such delay: (1) is not cased, could not have been reasonably anticipated and
mitigated, by the Contractor; and (2) could not be limited or avoided by the
Contractor's timely notice to the Owner of the delay. If the delay is due to causes
beyond the reasonable control of the City, an extension of the Contract Times shall be
the Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for the delay.
(b) DELAYS CAUSED BY WEATHER.
i. The Contract Times may be extended by Change Order due to the occurrence of
unusually severe weather if the Engineer determines that the following conditions
have been satisfied:
1. The weather experienced at the project Site during the Contract period must
41) be found to be unusually severe,as evidenced by weather that is more severe
Revised 1-11-18 55
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS
GENERAL CLAUSES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
CO
than the adverse weather anticipated at the Site during any given month;
and
2. The unusually severe weather must actually cause a delay to the completion
of the Work. The delay must be beyond the control and without the fault or
negligence of the Contractor.
ii. The following schedule of monthly anticipated adverse weather delays is based on
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA) or similar data for the
project Site and will constitute the baseline for the Engineer's monthly evaluations
of the Contractor's entitlement to an extension of the Contract Times under this
Section. The Contractor's progress schedule must reflect these anticipated adverse
weather delays in all weather dependent activities for the duration of the Work.

Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
(10) (6) (4) (5) (5) (6) (5) (4) (5) (4) (3) (7)
iii. Upon acknowledgment of the Notice to Proceed and continuing throughout the
duration of the Contract,the Contractor shall record daily the occurrence of adverse
weather and resultant impact to normally scheduled work. Actual adverse weather
delay days must prevent work on critical path activities for fifty percent (50%) or 4111
more of the Contractor's scheduled work day. On or before the 10th day of each
month,the Contractor shall provide the Engineer with written report of its proposed
dates of actual adverse weather delay days for prior month. The report shall: (1)
list the number of actual adverse weather delay days and include days impacted by
actual adverse weather(even if such adverse weather occurred in previous month);
(2) be calculated chronologically from the first to the last day of each month, and
be recorded as full days; and (3) include documentation and all details reasonably
available to demonstrate the nature and duration of the delays and their effect on
the critical path activities. If the number of actual adverse weather delay days
exceeds the number of days anticipated in subsection (b) above, the Engineer will
convert any qualifying delays to calendar days and the Contract Time shall be
extended by Change Order. After the original Contract Times have expired,
adverse weather that causes delay to the completion of the Work will be granted
day-for-day without deducting anticipated adverse weather delay days and will be
converted from work days to calendar days.
iv. Monthly anticipated weather delay days shall be adjusted proportionally if Work is
scheduled to be performed greater than or less than five (5) days during any work
week. The following formula shall be used to adjust the monthly anticipated
weather delays: Adjusted monthly anticipated weather delays=A multiplied by(B
divided by C); where
Revised 1-11-18 56
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS
GENERAL CLAUSES FOR CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
• A = The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for a particular month
based on a five-day work week.
B =The actual average number of days work is scheduled to be performed in
a work week during that particular month.
C =The number five (5).
Example-If the monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for January based
on a five day work week is 10 days,but the Contractor actually scheduled an
average of a 6-day work week for that month,the monthly anticipated weather
delay would be adjusted by applying the above formula as follows: 10 x(6/5)
= 12 days.
Monthly anticipated weather delay days shall also be adjusted proportionally for
those situations involving a fractional part of a month. The following formula shall
be used to adjust the monthly anticipated weather delays: Adjusted monthly
anticipated weather delays= D multiplied by(E divided by F); where
D =The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for a particular month.
E = The number of calendar days during that fractional part of a particular
month.
F=The number of calendar days in that particular month.
Example - The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay for the particular
month is 9 days. The original contract completion date is on the 20th day of
a 30-day month. The monthly anticipated adverse weather delay would be
adjusted by applying the above formula as follows: 9 x(20/30)=6 days.
43. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
In the event the Contractor shall fail to complete any portion of the Work within the
applicable Contract Times, then the City shall be entitled to deduct liquidated damages, in the
amount set forth in the Contract, from any sum or sums due the Contractor in final settlement
between the parties. In addition,the Contractor shall be held liable for and shall pay the wages of
the Inspectors on the Work after said time limit has expired, which wages shall be deducted from
any amount found to be due the Contractor on such final settlement. Nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to be a waiver of the right of the City to insist upon the timely performance of the
Contract, or to prevent the City from looking to the sureties of the Contractor for any and all
damages caused by any such delay, or as a consent to or waiver of any abandonment of the said
Work by the Contractor, either before or after the date fixed by completion.
44. ALTERNATES.
To receive consideration for any proposed alternate for material, equipment, or item
specified in the Contract Documents,the Contractor shall submit a full description of the proposed
alternate not later than ten (10) days prior to the date of receiving proposals by the City, for the
purpose of evaluation and approval.

45. CERTIFICATES OF COMPLETION.
(a) SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION. When the Contractor considers the Work, or a
portion thereof which the City agrees to accept separately, substantially complete,
the Contractor shall notify the City and Engineer in writing that the Work or
designated portion thereof is substantially complete and request that the Engineer
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. If the Engineer considers the Work
or designated portion thereof substantially complete,the Engineer will execute and
deliver a certificate of Substantial Completion, which shall fix the date of
Substantial Completion and shall be accompanied by an attached "punch list" of
items to be completed or corrected before the Work or designated portion thereof
is deemed completed and ready for final payment. The certificate of Substantial
Completion shall also provide for the division of responsibilities, pending final
payment to the Contractor,with respect to security,operation,safety,and protection
of the Work, maintenance,utilities, insurance, and warranties and guarantees.
(b) FINAL COMPLETION. After the issuance of a certificate of Substantial
Completion, and upon written notice from the Contractor that the entire Work is
completed and ready for final payment, the Engineer will promptly make a final
inspection. If the Contractor has, in the opinion of the Engineer, satisfactorily
completed the Work, including all punch list items, the Engineer will execute and
deliver a certificate of Final Completion, which shall fix the date of Final
0
Completion and readiness for final payment. The final completion date will also
serve as the commencement date for the two-year warranty period pursuant to
Section 46 below.
46. CONTRACTOR'S TWO-YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD.
If within two years after final acceptance (as indicated on the Certificate of Completion
provided pursuant to Section 45 above)of the Work as a whole, any Work is found to be defective,
or if the repair of any damages to the land or areas made available for Contractor's use is found to
be defective, the Contractor shall promptly, without cost to the City and in accordance with the
City's written instructions:
(a) Correct such defective Work; or
(b) Repair such defective land or areas; or
(c) If the defective Work has been rejected by the City, remove it from the Site and

of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court costs) arising out of or
relating to such correction or repair or such removal and replacement(including but not limited to
all costs of repair or replacement of work of others)will be paid by the Contractor.
Where defective Work(and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected
or removed and replaced under this section, the warranty period hereunder with respect to such
Work will be extended for an additional period of two years after such correction or removal and
replacement has been satisfactorily completed.
The Contractor's obligations under this section are in addition to any other obligation or
warranty, and shall not be construed as a substitute for, or a waiver of, the provisions of any
applicable statute of limitations or repose.
47. MAINTENANCE OF PROJECT SITE.
The Contractor shall be responsible for keeping a neat and orderly job site. Locations for
storing equipment and materials shall be at the Inspector's discretion. Grasses and other cover

6. CONCRETE PANEL REPAIR
It is the responsibility of the contractor to repair any spalled, cracked or broken panels at
no cost to the City. Removal and replacement of entire or partial sidewalk or pavement panels may
be required; but will be avoided whenever possible. In general; the structural integrity of the
pavement, as originally cast and placed, is superior to that of a replacement panel. Final
determination of what corrective action is deemed necessary will be on a case by case basis, but
will for the most part follow these basic guidelines:
(1) Repair of Spalls
• For spalls greater than 1/4 inch and less than or equal to 1/2 inch from the edge of the
original sawed joint; repair with hot pour sealant.
• For spalls greater than 1/2 inch and less than or equal to 1 inch from the edge of the original
sawed joint; blast clean and repair with epoxy patch material.
• For spalls greater than 1 inch from the edge of the original sawed joint; repair by making a
saw cut a minimum of 1 inch outside the spalled area to a minimum depth of 2 inches. Chip
out the concrete between saw cuts to solid concrete (2 inch minimum). Thoroughly clean
all loose material from the cavity. Apply a coat of an approved concrete bonding epoxy to
the dry, cleaned surface of all sides of the cavity, except the joint. Apply the epoxy by
scrubbing the material into the surface with a stiff brush. Place Portland cement concrete,
epoxy resin concrete or non-shrink grout immediately following epoxy application
according to the manufacturer's recommendations. If the spalled area to be patched abuts
a working joint; use an insert or other bond breaking medium during the repair work to
maintain working joints.
(2) Repair of Cracked/Broken Panels
• When a single transverse hairline crack extends across the entire roadway within 1/3 panel
length of a sawed joint:
a. If nearest sawed joint is working as a contraction joint; crack will be epoxied.
b. If nearest sawed joint is not working as a contraction joint; crack will be sawed and
sealed as it has now become the contraction joint. Planned contraction joint should then
be epoxied.

SECTION 204 — CONCRETE CURB & GUTTER
® 1. GENERAL
Concrete curb and gutter shall conform to the shape, dimensions, lines and grade called for
by the Drawings in accordance with the latest version of Section 825 of the Kansas Department
of Transportation (KDOT) Standard Specifications or as amended herein. Hand vibrators shall be
used to consolidate concrete before pulling up to form the back side when curb machines or
vibrating forms are not used.
2. STANDARD CURB AND GUTTER
The curb and gutter shall be divided into stones and when adjacent to concrete pavement,
the stones shall match the pavement joints. Curb shall be tied to the concrete pavement with #4
deformed bars or poured monolithic. When adjacent to asphalt pavement, the stones shall be as
near as possible to 5-feet lengths. Joints between stones shall be made by sawing through the
curb to a depth of not less than 2-1/2." Return curbs on intersecting streets shall be formed to
match existing curbs,using a transition section not less than 3 feet long or as otherwise detailed.
3. EXPANSION JOINTS
Preformed expansion joint material for monolithic placement shall be cut to fit the curb and
be the same thickness and in the same location as the pavement expansion material. No
reinforcement or tie bars in curb shall pass through the joint. Edges of all joints shall be finished
with a 1/4 inch radius edger. Preformed joint filler, 3/4" in thickness, shall be placed wherever
new work joints existing work; at the ends of all driveways, alley, and street returns where ends
meet existing construction; and at intervals of not more than 100 feet for monolithic straight
runs.
4. FINISHING
Back edge shall be finished with a 1/4 inch radius edger. The concrete curb and gutter shall
then be broom finished to the texture extending out onto pavement surface to match finish. A
wood float finish shall be provided when adjacent to flexible pavement. Gutter flow line shall be
finished to a true uniform grade without ridges or water pockets.
Since surface texture is critical to this application and is difficult to quantify, the contractor
shall construct a test section for approval by the Inspector. The test section shall be placed in one of
the areas for permanent improvements designated in the plans in the event that the section passes
inspection. If the test section fails to achieve the Inspector's approval, the test section shall be
removed and replaced at the contractor's expense. The approved test section shall serve as the
standard against which all other like improvements on the project are accepted or not accepted.
Failure to gain acceptance of the test section prior to constructing additional improvements shall be
the sole responsibility of the contractor.
5. CURING AND FROST PROTECTION
All curing and frost protection methods shall conform to Section 202, "Concrete" of the
Standard Specifications for the City of Salina.
6. BACKFILLING
Revised 3-4-2015 DRS 87
SECTION 204 - CONCRETE CURB & GUTTER
Segregated or "honeycombed" curb concrete shall be grouted before backfilling. The area
adjacent to the curb and curb and gutters shall be backfilled with approved material to the top
edges of the curbs or gutters or to the elevations shown on the plans.
7. TESTING
The Engineer reserves the right to require any testing of materials deemed necessary. Testing
concrete samples for percent air, slump,unit weight,and gradation to verify requirements have been
met shall be paid for by the City of Salina.
8. MEASUREMENT OF PAYMENT
Payment shall be made on the amount of completed and accepted work at the contract unit
price bid for"Curb&Gutter Combined"of the specified type.

41) 1. GENERAL
This item shall consist of a single course of non-reinforced dowel jointed (NRDJ) (AE) or
welded wire reinforcement(WWR) Portland cement concrete pavement conforming to the details
shown on the plans, constructed on a prepared subgrade in accordance with the latest version of
Section 502 of the Kansas Department of Transportation Standard Specifications or otherwise
noted.
2. PLACING,JOINTING, TEXTURING,AND SEALING CONCRETE
Refer to the latest version of Section 502 of the Kansas Department of Transportation
Standard Specifications. All concrete pavement(including patches) shall be tied at the longitudinal
joints. Joints shall be spaced (in feet) no more than 1.5 times the slab thickness (in inches).
Transverse joints shall have epoxy coated dowel bars conforming to ASTM A775 Grade 60 placed
at the mid-depth of the slab for pavement thicknesses greater than six (6) inches. If used, dowels
should be placed parallel to the pavement surface and parallel to the direction of travel. The center
of the dowel bar should be below the joint. If designated,welded wire reinforcement shall be used
in pavement locations as shown on the plans.
3. WELDED WIRE REINFORCEMENT(WWR)
Unless otherwise specified, the WWR shall be 6x6—W2.9xW2.9 weighing 42 pounds per
hundred (100) square foot and shall conform to the latest ASTM A1064 requirements for
"Standard Specification for Carbon-Steel Wire and Welded Wire Reinforcement, Plain and
Deformed,for Concrete."
4. PLACING REINFORCEMENT
All pavement reinforcement shall be placed as shown on the plans. All marginal bars, dowel
bars, and tie bars required by the plans shall be held in proper position by sufficient approved
chairs, metal bar supports or pins (i.e.Polylok Dual Rebar Chair 2 '/2"& 3"cover 3059-RC2).
Wire mesh shall be placed as near as possible to the center of the slab depth (+/- 1/2 inch).
Laps in adjacent sheets or mats of reinforcement shall be as shown on the plans. Laps parallel to
the center line of the pavement will not be permitted except for unusual widths of pavement lanes
or for irregular areas. If the plans do not show dimensions for laps, the minimum lap either
perpendicular or parallel to the center line of the pavement shall be twelve (12) inches. The
adjacent sheets shall be fastened or tied together to hold all parts of the sheets in the same plane.
5. FIBERS
When specified in the Contract Documents, fibers shall be incorporated into the concrete at
the rate recommended by the manufacturer but no less than a minimum of 3 pounds per cubic yard
of concrete for macro fibers and 1 pound to 1.5 pounds per cubic yard of concrete for micro fibers.
Fibers shall meet the requirements in the current edition of the KDOT Standard Specifications. The
synthetic fibers shall be in a collated and fibrillated or monofilament form. Unless otherwise
specified,micro fibers shall be used for"fiber reinforcement" on all general
call-outs. Macro fibers may be used as a substitute for micro fibers but micro fibers are not a
4115 suitable alternative for macro fibers.
Revised 3-3-23 DRS 89
SECTION 205 - CONCRETE PAVEMENT
6. FINISHING
After the concrete has been spread and struck off, it shall be further struck off and
consolidated by use of an approved fmishing machine or vibrating screed to such an elevation that
when finishing operations are completed, the surface will conform to the required grade and
crown. The finishing machine shall be operated over the entire surface at least twice. A uniform
roll or ridge of concrete at least two (2) inches above the pavement grade shall be maintained
ahead of the finishing machine or vibrating screed for its entire length during its initial pass.
Excessive tamping or finishing resulting in bringing an excess of mortar to the surface will not be
permitted. Final finishing shall consist of eliminating tool marks, edging, and applying the final
surface texture. Final surface texture shall be transverse broom or longitudinal wet burlap drag
finish. This final finish shall not be applied until the entire surface has been straight-edged, using a
ten(10) foot straight-edge, and any irregularities corrected.
Since surface texture is critical to this application and is difficult to quantify, the contractor
shall construct a test section for approval by the Inspector. The test section shall be placed in one of
the areas for permanent improvements designated in the plans in the event that the section passes
inspection. If the test section fails to achieve the Inspector's approval, the test section shall be
removed and replaced at the contractor's expense. The approved test section shall serve as the
standard against which all other like improvements on the project are accepted or not accepted.
Failure to gain acceptance of the test section prior to constructing additional improvements shall be
the sole responsibility of the contractor.
7. CURING
Curing shall conform to Section 202,"Concrete."
8. Concrete Pavement Smoothness
The smoothness of the pavement surface shall be in accordance with KDOT Standard
Specification section 503 and shall be corrected to achieve an average profile index of better than
65. Pavement smoothness shall be measured following completion of pavement construction for
any project greater than 528 feet long (minimum 12 feet wide lane) having a at least 250 feet of
straight roadway pavement(see KDOT specification 503.3a for other exclusions). All bumps shall
be corrected per Table 503-1 note 2 for all pavement areas and even those less than 0.1 mile. No
extra payment shall be made for an average profile index better than 30.
On surfaces excluded from profilograph testing, the Engineer will determine the pavement
smoothness using a 10-foot straightedge. The Engineer will select the locations to be tested. The
variation of the surface from the testing edge of the straightedge shall not exceed 1/8 inch between
any 2 contacts, longitudinal or transverse. Pavement smoothness shall not be paid for directly but
shall be subsidiary to Concrete Pavement.
9. INSPECTION AND TESTING
The Contractor shall provide a Quality Control (QC) plan for approval by the Engineer
prior to construction and provide qualified personnel and equipment to conduct QC testing at his
own expense (for street paving projects over 1,000 total square yards). At a minimum, values for
percent air, slump, unit weight, and gradation must be provided to the City of Salina following
