got approved by the ENGINEER. The weather and seasonal limitations, preparation of road
surface, application and curing of primer and quality control shall be governed by IRC 94-1986.
Tack Coat:
This work shall consist of application of a single coat Bitumen emulsion conforming to the
medium setting IOCL Haldia ( refinery product) on the primed surface prior to the start of
operation of laying Dense Bituminous Macadam layer. The materials shall be procured from
Manufacturer.
The aggregate part shall consist of a blend of crushed stone of different sizes with the fine
aggregate consisting of crushed stone dust and / or clean sand. The material shall be tested for
fraction consisting of lime conforming to the gradation requirement of Cl. 4.2.4 of IRC 94-1986
shall also be added to the blend. All the constituents shall be proportioned by weight and
Binder:
The binder shall consist of Bitumen of penetration grade of VG-30. The binder content shall be
DBM Mix:
The Dense Bituminous Macadam mix shall be designed according to table-1 of IRC 94-1986.
The proposed job mix formula shall be got approved by the ENGINEER prior to adoption for use
at the site.
Mixing of materials:
The mixing shall be done by Hot Mix Plant having 60-90 TPH capacity. The plant shall be
calibrated according to the requirements of the adopted job mix formula and approval for it shall
be obtained from the Engineer for operation and application at site. The allowable variation from
Preparation of surface:
The location for laying DBM shall be swept clean of any extraneous, dust or loose materials.
The cleaning shall be assisted with blowing compressed air over the surface of WMM. Rolled
steel channels shall be provided at the toe points as per the width requirement to maintain
uniformity in the DBM layer.
Opening to Traffic:
Traffic can be allowed after compaction of final rolling when the mix has cooled down to the
surrounding temperature. However the DBM course shall be covered by a suitable wearing
course prior to regular opening to normal traffic and / or impending rain.
The following plants and equipment shall be deployed for the laying operation for Dense Bituminous
Macadam.
Paver Finisher with Electronic Sensing device with manual Levelling and Profile Control - 01 no.
Water browser - 01 no
PURPOSE
The purpose of this document is to detail the procedures for mixing and laying Bituminous Concrete to
extend the procedure for “on ward operation” of laying Bituminous Concrete of 40 mm thickness. The
documentation shall apply to all Engineer, Workmen, Quality Control Personnel and Inspectors
connected with this job.
SCOPE
This work shall involve selection of suitable materials, collection of aggregates and their stacking, mixing
of materials, laying of Dense Bituminous Concrete mix, rolling and compaction of BC layer, testing for
suitability of BC mix and compacted layer, recording observed data, documentation of the field results
and submission to the Engineer for approval and “on ward operation” for laying BC.
This Method Statement shall also cover the application of Tack Coat required for application before the
operation of laying BC as per specification. It also includes traffic safety in construction zone.
