DIVISION 2 - SITE WORK SECTION 02577 - STREET MARKING PART 1 - GENERAL 1.

01 DESCRIPTION This Section covers providing the WORK required to apply painted traffic markings as shown on the Construction Drawings and specified herein, and as required to complete the WORK acceptable to Company Representative. 1.02 Reference Codes and Standards: Comply with applicable SAUDI ARAMCO Engineering and Drafting Standards, Municipals and Codes and Standards as specified herein.

PART 2 - MATERIALS 2.01 SPRAY PLASTIC MATERIAL A. Spray plastic material shall consist of a light-colored aggregate, pigment and extender bound together with a thermoplastic resin, plasticised as necessary. The composition of the materials as laid, that is including the spray on glass beads, shall be according to AASHTO Designation M-249 with modification for the white 20-2.0 for the binder and 52 maximum for the calcium carbonate and inert fillers (that include the aggregates). The 20% glass bead is to be 10% pre-mixed and the other 10% is to be applied by pressure application. The proportioning of the various ingredients shall be such that the final product, when in molten state can be sprayed readily onto the road surface to give an even line of good definition.

Glass beads sprayed onto the surface of the line shall conform to the following grading: B. Gradation For Pressure Application Sieve No. 12 No. 30 No. 40 No. 50 No. 80 No. 200 Percent Passing 100% 85 - 100 45 - 100 10 - 45 0 - 20 0-5

Not less than 90% of the glass beads shall be transparent glass, reasonably spherical and free from flaws. Glass beads shall be in accordance with AASHTO Designation M-247, except as modified below. 2.04 PIGMENT EXTENDER The extender shall be calcium carbonate prepared from natural chalk. The total content of pigment and extender shall be between 18 and 22%. 2.05 BINDER The binder shall be based predominantly on synthetic hydrocarbon resins plasticised with mineral oil. The viscosity and wetting properties of the molten binder at the spraying temperature will be such as to give a composition of satisfactory spraying properties. 2.06 PROPERTIES Unless otherwise specified herein, all tests shall be in accordance with the applicable ASSHTO Designation M-247. Spray plastic shall have an open flash point exceeding 235 degrees C. PART 3 - EXECUTION 3.01 GENERAL Application shall be by self-propelled mobile sprayer, or template. The road surface shall be dry and free from loose mud and other extraneous matter. The drying time shall not be more than 10 minutes, in the laboratory test. The spray plastic shall be used at temperatures between 200 - 220 degrees C. 3.02 RATE OF APPLICATION Spray plastic shall be applied in intermittent or continuous lines or arrows, etc. of thickness not less than 1.5 mm excluding glass beads referred to below.

In addition to the glass beads included in the materials, a further quantity of glass beads shall be sprayed on the hot spray plastic line at the time of application. The application shall be pressurized and result in a residual quantity of glass not less than 450 grams/sq.m. 3.03 FINISH The finished lines shall be free from raggedness on sides and ends and be in true plane with the general alignment of the street. The upper surface of the lines shall be level, uniform and free from streaks or cracks. END OF SECTION
