Verify that concrete base elevations conform to the specifications. The slope of the concrete base surface shall conform to the finish grade of the pavers to provide uniform bedding sand thickness. — B. Note that the top surface of the pavers should be 1/8 inch above the final elevation after compaction. This difference in initial and final elevation is to compensate for possible minor settling. —" 32 14 16 BRICK PAVERS Page 4 of 7 C. Verify the proper installation of the concrete edge restraints, in terms of location, straightness, elevation, and adherence to the specifications. D. Beginning of bedding sand and paver installation shall signify acceptance of base and edge restraints. E. Determine actual paver dimensions (including tolerances) and coordinate with dimensions for pavement areas indicated on Contract Drawings prior to any pavement installation. Adjust pavement area dimensions to eliminate unnecessary paver cutting. Notify Engineer of notable discrepancies with the Contract Drawings due to site conditions. 3.03 SITE PREPARATION (CONCRETE BASE) A. Clean all concrete base areas in preparation for paver installation. B. Install weep holes as specified on the drawings. Drill 2-3" diameter hole and fill with pea gravel (IDOT Gradation #29 or approved equal). Install holes at a minimum 10' on center and at all low r points of concrete base. C. Geotextile: Install geotextile where indicated on Contract Drawings. Overlap ends and edges a minimum of 12 inches (300 mm.) and weep holes a minimum of 6 inches. D. Before commencing the placing of the sand bedding course and the placement of the brick pavers, the base shall be inspected by the Owner or the Consultant. 3.04 BRICK PAVER INSTALLATION A. Spread the bedding sand evenly over the base course and screed to a nominal 1 in. (25 mm) thickness, not exceeding 1 1/2 in. (40 mm) thickness. The screeded sand should not be disturbed. Sufficient sand shall be placed in order to stay ahead of the laid pavers. Do not use the bedding sand to fill depressions in the base surface. B. Screeded sand shall be fully protected against incidental compaction, including compaction by rain. Any screeded sand which is incidentally compacted prior to laying of the paving unit, shall be removed and brought back to profile in a loose condition.

Joint (bond) lines shall not deviate more than ± 1/2 in. (±15 mm) over 50 ft. (15 m) from string lines. 32 14 16 BRICK PAVERS Page5of7 K. Gaps at the edges of the paved area shall be filled with cut pavers. Layout paver units within each field such that no paver units are cut smaller than one-third of a whole paver along edges subject to vehicular traffic. L. Pavers to be placed along the edge shall be cut with a double blade paver splitter or masonry _ saw. M. Upon completion of cutting, the area must be swept clean of all debris to facilitate inspection and to ensure pavers are not damaged during compaction. (Debris or sand particles left on pavers which are being compacted can cause point loading which may chip, scrape or break the paver.) N. After sweeping and prior to compaction, the paved area must be inspected by the owner or consultant to ensure satisfactory color blending. Pavers can be moved easily at this time to achieve good color distribution. O. The pavers shall be compacted to achieve consolidation of the sand bedding and brought to level and profile by not less than three passes. Initial compaction should proceed as closely as possible Nom following the installation of the paving units and prior to the acceptance of any traffic or application of sweeping sand. P. Low amplitude, high frequency plate compactor shall be used to compact the pavers into the sand. Use of a urethane plate compactor pad is recommended to minimize any scuffing of the paving stone surface. The compactor shall transmit an effective force not less than 75 kN per square metre (1600 Lb/ft2) of plate area. The frequency of vibration shall be within the range of 75 to 100 Hz. Use Table 5 below to select size of compaction equipment: `- PAVER THICKNESS AND REQUIRED MINIMUM COMPACTION FORCE Paver Thickness Compaction Force 2 3/8 in. (60 mm) 3000 lbs [13 kN] 2 3/4 in. (70 mm) & 5000 lbs [22 kN] �- 3 1/8 in. (80 mm) Q. Any units that are structurally damaged during compaction shall be immediately removed and replaced. R. Dry joint sand shall be swept into the joints until the joints are full. This will require at least two or three passes with the compactor. Do not compact within 36 inches of the unrestrained edges of the paving units. S. All work to within 36 inches of the laying face must be left fully compacted with sand-filled joints at the completion of each day. _ T. Allow excess joint sand to remain on surface to help protect pavers from damage from other trades. Sweep excess sand from pavement when directed by Engineer. U. Contractor shall return to site over a period of up to 90 days after substantial completion to add sand to fill joints as needed. 3.05 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL A. After removal of excess sand, check final elevations for conformance to the drawings. Notify Engineer of deviations and adjust as directed. B. All surface and pavement structures shall be true to the lines and levels, grades, thickness and cross sections shown on the drawings. All pavements shall be finished to lines and levels to ensure positive drainage at all drainage outlets and channels. In no case shall the cross-fall of any portion of pavement be less than that shown on the plans. The final surface elevations shall not _ deviate more than 3/8 in. (10 mm) under a 10 ft. (3 m) long straight edge. 32 14 16 BRICK PAVERS Page 6 of 7 C. The surface elevation of pavers shall be 1/8 to 1/4 in. (3 to 6 mm) above adjacent drainage inlets, concrete collars or channels. D. Lippage: No greater than 1/8 in. (3 mm) difference in height between adjacent pavers. 3.06 ADA TRUNCATED DOME TILE INSTALLATION A. Install as per manufacturer specifications. Isolate work area by using barricades or cones to block off the work area from pedestrian or vehicular traffic. Consult with local governmental agency or other standard to be certain safety guidelines are followed. B. Before pouring concrete determine the layout of tiles. Tiles can be cut to custom sizes, or to make a radius, using a continuous rim diamond blade in a circular saw or mini-grinder. Use of a straightedge to guide the cut is advisable where appropriate. C. Pour and finish concrete according to the drawings and specifications. Check the slope of the concrete with an electronic level to assure compliance. D. Trace the approximate location of the tiles and remove 1/2 in. to 5/8 in. of concrete. E. Place the tile in the void created by applying downward pressure and twisting the tile to set. The tile should be level with the surrounding concrete. Place the remaining tiles flush to the previous using the same downward twisting method. F. Float surface of concrete surrounding tiles making sure that any concrete displaced by the tiles is removed and the surface is finished in a manner that the tile becomes an integral part of the sidewalk and does not disturb the uniform slope achieved before placement. G. Recheck slope to confirm that the installation of the tiles has not disturbed the slope. H. While concrete is workable, a 1/8" radius edging tool shall be used to create a finished edge of concrete, then a steel trowel shall be used to finish the concrete around the tile's perimeter, flush to the field level of the tile. Carefully finish the edges, and clean of any concrete that has spilled during the installation — I. Following tile placement, review installation tolerances to contract drawings and adjust tile before the concrete sets. Suitable sandbags with 10 to 25 lb weights may be placed on each tile as necessary to ensure solid contact of the underside of tile to concrete. Protect area from pedestrian and vehicular traffic until the concrete has cured sufficiently. J. Clean by spraying with water. Do NOT spray or allow setting compounds or other chemicals to interact with tiles. Use protective barriers to protect tiles if such chemicals/compounds are used on surrounding areas. PART 4— MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 4.01 Measurement: The Engineer shall measure the number of square feet of brick pavers or ADA truncated dome tiles that are satisfactorily installed in accordance with the plans and this Special Provision, as required by the contract documents. 4.02 Payment: For each type of brick paver and ADA truncated dome tile installed and measured for payment, the Contractor shall be paid the contract unit price. This payment shall be full compensation for the paver or truncated dome tile installed.
