embankment will generally apply to subgrade.

WMM is layer composed of crushed aggregate material and asphalt placed on a

prepared and accepted subbase in accordance with the Specification to the lines, levels,
grades, dimensions and cross section shown in the Drawing by the Engineer. WMM
course aggregate will consist of a mixture of hard durable crushed rock particles and
mineral filler which satisfies the grading limits as determined by given standard in the
Specification.

A work for subbase or WMM course relating to the existing pavement will be done as
reconstructed base. The work will comprise scarifying, reshaping and recompacting the
existing pavement and shoulders and reconditioning the whole by the addition of
approved materials to form a reconstructed layer in accordance with the Specification to
the lines, levels, grades, dimensions and cross sections shown in the Drawings by the
Engineer. Reconstructed base will be designated to places where the difference in level
between the designed and the existing surface is less than the thickness of top layer for
designed surface.

7.2 General Method of Work

Subbase will be spread in even lifts not exceeding 150mm after compaction. Care will
be taken to prevent segregation, and oversized particles will be hand picked from the lift
prior to compaction. Patches or pockets of fine material will be removed and made
good.

Immediately after each layer has been spread and shaped satisfactorily, each layer will
be thoroughly compacted with suitable and adequate compaction equipment. Rolling
operation will begin from the outer edge of roadbed toward the center, gradually in a
longitudinal direction, except on super-elevated curves where rolling will begin at the
low side progress toward the high side. Subbase of sandy material will be compacted
using of vibrating equipment. Each layer will be compacted by 10-tonne roller to at
least 98% of the maximum dry density, as determined by AASHTO T180.

Sample of subbase material will be tested by the Contractor and approved by the
Engineer before commencing the construction and additional samples will be furnished
during the construction as required on request.
