 4-97 Densities on Bituminous Concrete Wearing Surfaces |
11/19/1997 | The purpose of this CIM was to clarify placement rates vs. density requirements. Reference was made to Subarticle 306.03(g) and GFO 6-10, both of which have been revised since the CIM date. The CIM is now deemed inactive and current guidance for this topic is contained in the referenced specification and GFO. |
| 6-2017 Routing Material Submittals |
07/27/2017 | The specification Sections listed in this CIM now contain the current language to be followed by the contractor when providing submittals; therefore, the CIM has been deemed inactive. |
| 3-2015 Post-Letting Modifications of Section 408 Requirements |
04/30/2015 | This CIM was a reminder to enforce the requirements of 408.03 regarding the time period allowed to cover a milled surface. When the CIM was written, the specifications were very restrictive and required that a milled surface be covered within 24 hours, which resulted in requests to waive the time limitation. The specifications were later revised to allow significantly longer time periods (7 days for planed surfaces and 30 days for micro-milled surfaces). These substantially more lenient periods resolved the issue of time limitations being modified after letting; therefore, the CIM has been deemed inactive. |
