The back rod and breaker tape shall be installed in the saw cut joint to prevent the joint sealant from flowing to the bottom of the joint. The backer rod and breaker tape shall be compatible with the silicone joint sealant and no bond or reaction shall occur between them. Reference is made to the "Construction Detail" Csheet for the various joint details with their respective dimensions. 4. TIME OF APPLICATION On newly constructed Portland Cement Concrete pavement, the joints shall be initially saw cut to the required depth with the proper joint spacing as shown on the "Construction Detail" sheet or as directed by the Engineer within 12 hours of the pavement placement. (Note that for the "dummy" joints, the initial 1/4 inch width "green" saw cut and the "reservoir" saw cut are identical and should be part of the same saw cutting operation. Immediately after the saw cutting pressure water washing shall be applied to flush the concrete slurry from the freshly saw cut joints.) The pavement shall be allowed to cure to a minimum of 7 days. Then the saw cuts for the joint sealant reservoir shall be made, the joint cleaned, and the joint sealant installed. During the application of the joint sealant, the weather shall not be inclement and the temperature shall be 40°F (4°C) and rising. 5. EQUIPMENT L•! 5.1 All necessary equipment shall be furnished by the Contractor. The Contractor shall keep his equipment in a satisfactory working condition and shall be inspected by the Engineer prior to the beginning of the work.

There shall be suitable traps for the removal of all free water and oil from the compressed air. The blow tube shall fit into the saw cut joint. !u{ 5.5 Extrusion Pump: The output shall be capable of supplying a sufficient volume of sealant to the joint. 5.6 Injection Tool: This mechanical device shall apply the sealant uniformly into the joint. 5.7 Sandblaster: The design shall be for commercial use with air compressors as specified in Paragraph 5.4. 5.8 Backer Rod Roller and Tooling Instrument: These devices shall be clean and free of contamination. They shall be compatible with the joint depth and width requirements. a 6. CONSTRUCTION METHODS 6.1 General: The joint reservoir saw cutting, cleaning, bond breaker installation, and joint sealant placement shall be performed in a continuous sequence of operations. O 6.2 Sawing Joints: The joints shall be saw cut to the width and depth as shown on the "Construction Detail" sheet. The faces of the joints shall be uniform in width and depth along the full length of the joint. 0 9804400 Specs_0499 DO.doc 12 (2) SILICONE JOINT SEALING SPECIFICATIONS 0 6.3 Cleaning Joints: Immediately after sawing, the resulting concrete slurry shall be completely removed from the joint and adjacent area by flushing with high pressure water. The water a flushing shall be done in one direction to prevent joint contamination. When the Contractor elects to saw the joint by the dry method, flushing the joint with high pressure water may be deleted. The dust resulting from the sawing shall be removed from the U joint by using compressed air. (Paragraph Rev. 1 - October 18, 1989) After complete drying, the joints shall be sandblasted. The nozzle shall be attached to a mechanical aiming device so that the sand blast will be directed at an angle of 45 degrees and at a distance of one to two inches from the face of the joint. Both joint faces shall be sandblasted in separate, one directional passes. Upon the termination of the sandblasting, the joints shall be blown -out using compressed air. The fl blow tube shall fit into the joints. The blown joint shall be checked for residual dust or other contamination. If any dust or contamination is found, the sandblasting and blowing shall be repeated until the joint is cleaned. Solvents will not be permitted to remove stains and contamination. Immediately upon cleaning, the bond breaker and sealant shall be placed in the joint. Open, cleaned joints shall not be left unsealed overnight. 6.4 Bond Breaker Rod and Tape: The bond breaker rod and tape shall be installed in the cleaned joint prior to the application of the joint sealant in a manner that will produce the required dimensions. 6.5 Joint Sealant: Upon placement of the bond breaker rod and tape, the joint sealant shall be applied using the mechanical injection tool. The joint sealant application shall not be permitted when the air and pavement temperature is less than 40°F (4°C). Joints shall not be sealed unless they are clean and dry. Q Unsatisfactorily sealed joints shall be refilled. Excess sealant left on the pavement surface shall be removed and discarded and shall not be used to seal the joints. The pavement surface shall present a clean final condition. Q Traffic shall not be allowed on the fresh sealant until it becomes tack free. 6.6 Approval of Joints: A representative of the sealant manufacturer shall be present at the job site at the beginning of the final cleaning and sealing of the joints. He shall demonstrate to the Contractor and the Engineer the acceptable method for sealant installation. The manufacturer's representative shall approve the clean, dry joints before the sealing operation commences. 7. WARRANTY The Contractor shall provide the Engineer a manufacturer's written guarantee on all joint sealing materials. The manufacturer shall agree to provide any replacement material free of charge to the City. Also, the O Contractor shall provide the Engineer a written warranty on all sealed joints. The contractor shall agree to replace any failed joints at no cost to the City. Both warranties shall be for one year after fmal acceptance of the completed work by the Engineer. 0 8.

The law that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, non-resident bidders (out-of-state contractors O whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside of the state of Texas) bid projects for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an mount lower than the lowest Texas resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a non-resident bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the state in which the non-resident's principle place of business is located. The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all out-of-state or non-resident bidders in order for your bid to meet specifications. The failure of out-of-state or non-resident contractors to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident bidders must check the box in Section B. A. Non-resident vendors in (give state), our principal place of business, are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by state law.
