1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />September 28, 1998 <br />• In-situ density tests <br />• Laboratory Proctor compaction, particle size distribution on <br />materials recovered from select locations. <br />The procedures for the above tests will be the ASTM standard tests listed in Table <br />1.1. The testing frequency shall be as indicated in Table 1.2. The tests will be <br />performed at least the minimum number of times indicated. The Field Engineer <br />may increase the number of tests taken; however, any reduction in the minimum <br />number or frequency requires the approval of the Engineer. <br />TABLE 1.1 <br />SUMMARY OF QUALITY CONTROL TESTS FOR EARTHWORKS <br /> Test Method <br />T e of Test ASTM <br />Moisture Content <br />a) Laboratory D 2216 <br />b) In Place D 3017 <br />Particle Size Distribution D 422' <br />Laboratory Compaction D 1557 <br />Field Density <br />a) Nuclear Method D 2922 <br />b Sand Cone Method D 1556 <br />' No hydrometer analysis will be run but samples will be washed over a #200 sieve. <br />TABLE 1.2 <br />TESTING FREQUENCY <br />Material Test Desi nations Test Fre uenc 1 Per <br />Embankment Random Fill Particle Size Analysis 2,000 cy' or 1 per material type <br /> Moisture Content 2,000 cy or 1 per material type <br /> Laboratory Compaction 2,000 cy or 1 per material type <br /> Field Density/Moisture 500 cy min. or the discretion of the <br />field en ineer <br />"cy =cubic yard. <br />C.
