SECTION 3123 00 <br /> EARTHWORK <br /> PART 1- GENERAL <br /> 1.1 SCOPE OF WORK <br /> A. This Section includes all earthwork to construct the low permeability liner and placement of <br /> embankment fills to construct final slopes to the established lines and grades at the locations shown on <br /> the Contract Drawings and as directed by the Engineer.This specification does not cover temporary <br /> earthwork including cuts and fills constructed to create the working pad. <br /> 1.2 DEFINITIONS <br /> A. Relative Compaction: "Relative compaction" is defined as the ratio,in percent,of the as-compacted <br /> field dry density to the laboratory maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D 698.Corrections for <br /> oversize material may be applied to either the as-compacted field dry density or the maximum dry <br /> density,as determined by the Engineer. <br /> B. Optimum Moisture Content: "Optimum moisture content"shall be determined by the ASTM D 698 to <br /> determine the maximum dry density for relative compaction. Field moisture content shall be <br /> determined on the basis of the fraction passing the 3/4-inch sieve. <br /> C. Fines:"Fines"shall be that material which passes the No.200 sieve as determined by ASTM D 1140. <br /> D. Engineer:The Engineer is defined as the representative of Brierley Associates designated to perform <br /> construction inspection services. <br /> E. Quality Control Technician:The Quality Control Technician is defined as that representative of Brierley <br /> Associates or their subconsultant Martinez Associates designated to perform quality control testing as <br /> approved by the Engineer. <br /> F. Contractor:The Contractor is Hall-Irwin Corporation and their subcontractor. <br /> 1.3 TESTING <br /> A. All testing,including field and laboratory services,will be completed by the Quality Control Technician. <br /> 1.4 CODES,ORDINANCES,AND STATUTES <br /> A. The Contractor shall be familiar with,and comply with,all applicable codes,ordinances,statutes,and <br /> bear sole responsibility for the penalties imposed for noncompliance. <br /> 1.5 TOLERANCES <br /> A. All material limits shall be constructed within a tolerance of 0.1 foot except where dimensions or grades <br /> are shown or specified as minimum.All grading shall be performed to maintain slopes as shown. <br /> Loloff Slurry Wall 3123 00-1 <br />
