I All asphalt plant operations shall comply with municipal regulations and ordinances governing the area in which the plant is located. ' The Contractor will be required to submit a mix design for approval prior to commencing the paving operations. I Materials Performance graded asphalt cement shall be PG 58 -28. The Performance Graded Asphalt Cement (PGAC) will conform to OPSS 1101 for the specified grade. Equipment OPSS 310 is amended in that automatic screed controls are not required. No surface trial coat ' area shall be required under this contract. Construction ' • When the Hot Mix Price Adjustment is part of the contract, Hot Mix asphalt sampling and testing is a requirement of the contract and all costs to be paid by the Contractor. • Asphalt cement sampling and testing is not a requirement of the contract. • The contractor is responsible for all Quality Control (QC) testing. The QC documentation shall be made available to the Contract Administrator upon request. • Quality control testing are to be used for acceptance in place of Quality Assurance test results. • 450 mm stepped joints are required when placing HMA adjacent to existing paved areas with an existing asphalt depth of 100 mm or more. • Hot Mix Asphalt padding shall be placed prior to placing the surface course of asphalt. The I tonnage required for HMA padding will be included with the appropriate HMA item. OPSS 310.07.11.04 Longitudinal and Transverse Joints is amended as follows: , I SP -5 r ' b. Where a surface course is placed flush against an existing HMA pavement, a stepped joint shall be prepared by removing the existing surface course to its full depth for a length of 0.5 m and the remaining depth shall be trimmed to form a straight vertical face (see Asphalt ' Joint Detail BMROSS 208). Removal of existing surface course shall be by means of burning out or a milling machine. Hot Mix Miscellaneous The Contractor shall also take note that he is to pave designated drives, boulevards and areas behind the curb as directed by the Contract Administrator. This hand laid asphalt will only apply to areas that, in the opinion of the Contract Administrator, do not permit the operation of a paving machine. The supply of the HL -3 for these areas shall be included under the item for Hot Mix Miscellaneous. Hot Mix Miscellaneous shall be measured in square metres. In areas where Hot Mix Miscellaneous is designated on the plans and more than one 50 mm lift of Hot Mix is required, measurement for payment will be made as if two single courses of Hot Mix were required. ' Provisional Paving • The farm lane to be paved is located at Lot 12, Concession 3 with a 911 address of #946 Concession 2. The lane is approximately 150 m long by 3 m wide and 40 mm • On Conquergood Ave. approximately 30 pads measuring 1 m x 3 m are to be paved. The Municipality of Kincardine will do the preparation and the Contractor shall do the paving. ' Hot Mix Price Adjustment Payment to the contractor for hot mix to be based on changes to the Ministry of Transportation's ' performance graded asphalt cement price index as presented herein. The price index will be published monthly in the MTO Contract Bulletin and displayed on the ' OHMPA (www.ohmpa.org) and the MTO website (www.rags.mto.gov.on.ca). The price index will be used to calculate the amount of the payment adjustment per tonne of asphalt cement accepted into the Work. The price index will be based on the price, excluding taxes, FOB the depots in the Toronto area, of asphalt cement grade PG 58 -28 or equivalent. One index will be used to establish and ' calculate the payment adjustment for all grades. As of July 2006 the price index for each month will reflect the average of the same month's prices and be published on the last day of the month and be retroactively applied to HMA laid in the same month. 1 SP -6 A a entad p yrn adjustment per tonne of asphalt cement will be established for each month in which paving occurs when the price index for the month differs by more than $15.00 /tonne from the AC price index for the month prior to tender opening. When the price index differential is less then $15.00 /tonne, there will be no payment adjustment for that month. Payment adjustments due to changes in the price index are independent of any other payment adjustments made to hot mix tender items. The payment adjustment per tonne will apply to the quantity of asphalt cement in the hot mix accepted into the Work during the month for which it is established. The payment adjustment for the month will be calculated by the following means: 1. When AC Prices are Rising by more than $15.00 /tonne: the payment adjustment to be paid to the Contractor is the result of subtracting the price index for the month prior to tender opening from the price index in effect when paving takes place, minus the $15.00 111 float, multiplied by the number of tones of PGAC incorporated in the mix(s) as determined by the job mix formula. 2. When AC Prices are Falling by more than $15.00 /tonne: the payment adjustment made in favour of the Owner is the result of subtracting the price index in effect when paving takes place, plus the $15.00 float from the price index for the month prior to the tender I opening, multiplied by the number of tones of PGAC incorporated in the mix(s) as determined by the job mix formula. 3. When Paving Occurs After the Date of Completion: The price index for the month of completion shall be used when determining the payment adjustment should the paving be performed after the specified completion date. The calculations used in determining the payment, regardless of rising AC prices or falling AC prices, shall be as indicated above. For mixes which contain reclaimed asphalt pavement, the quantity of new asphalt cement will be determined from the difference between the asphalt cement content required by the job mix formula and the asphalt cement content of the reclaimed asphalt pavement incorporated into the hot mix, as calculated by the Contract Administrator. I The quantity of new asphalt cement includes all grade of asphalt cement supplied by the Contractor with and without polymer modifiers. For each month in which a payment adjustment has been established, the quantity of the escalation/de- escalation will be calculated using the hot mix quantity accepted into the Work and its corresponding asphalt cement content as required by the job mix formula. For mixes which contain reclaimed asphalt pavement, the increase due the contractor or the rebate due the owner will be calculated as if virgin hot mix asphalt has been supplied. This fairly reflects the increasing value of the Contractor's RAP pile when AC prices are increasing and the opposite when they are declining. ' I I SP -7 Example 1 AC Prices Increasing ' . PGCA 58 -28 specified, 1,100 tonnes of HL4 @ 5.2% AC (57.2 tonnes AC) • The Price Index on tender opening is $900 /tonne • The applicable Price Index as published on August 31 effective for the August 17 ' 24 2009 actual paving dates is $950.00 /tonne (PG 58 -28) • Payment adjustment to be paid to the Contractor: ($950 - $15.00) - $900.00 x 57.2 tonnes AC = $35.00 x 57.2 tonnes AC = $2,002.00 ' Example 2 — AC Prices Decreasing • PGAC 58 -28 specified, 1,100 tonnes of HL4 @ 5.2% AC (57.2 tonnes AC) • The Price Index on tender opening is $900.00 /tonne (PG 58 -28) ' . The applicable Price Index as published on September 30 effective for the September 11 -18 2009 actual paving dates in $775.00 /tonne (PG 58 -28) • Payment for hot mix items reduced by: $900.00 — ($775.00 + $15.00) x 57.2 tonnes AC = $110 x 57.2 tonnes AC = $6,292.00 ITEM NO. 5 REMOVAL OF BITUMINOUS PAVEMENT (OUTSIDE EXCAVATION) For the unit price bid, the Contractor shall supply all labour and equipment to remove and dispose of bituminous pavement from those areas shown on the drawings or as directed by the Contract Administrator at the time of construction.
