1. This is where the line entries are placed. You will spend most of your time
here. This will be covered in detail in just a few moments.
2. Tack spread rate information goes here. How many spread rates are
required per day?
300-8.4 Rate of Application
3. If you get lost, there are handy instructions for you. If you have any
questions about this form, contact your QC Manager or the Local
Resident Asphalt Specialist.

The Basics

1. This is where you place the 11 digit project number (hyphens not required).
2. This is where the QC technician would place his TIN # (Driver License). If there is more than
one QC technician working on a project, we will show you later how to designate different QC
Technicians.
3. This is your intended lot size. Depending on what type of mix, age of mix 334-5.1.2 is what
your lot size will be. There are two options, 2000 or 4000 tons. Remember FC-5 can only
have 2000 ton lots 337-6.2.1 paragraph 3.
4. This is where the design mix information goes. When you click on this box, another sub-form
appears for you to fill in the appropriate information (Gmm).
5. Is this a static mode lot. You cannot mix a static mode lot/area with a non-static lot.
6. This is a drop down box that you can select your lot. Remember each design mix gets a new
lot number
7. This is the box that is to be checked when the lot closes. A lot will close for any of the
following reasons:
a. Time expired (30 calendar days)
d. Change in design mix
b. Intended lot size met
e. Plant change
c. Lot termination due to a failure
f. Project over!!!

1.
Constant Width Area. This is mainline, shoulder, ramps, bike paths, bike lanes. Anywhere the width does
not change.
2. Varied Width Areas. This is gore areas, turnouts, radius.
3. #. This is where you place a number to put a note for additional information. If there happens to be more
than one QC Technician during a lot of paving, this is where the different TIN numbers will be listed.
4. Date Paved. If you have night paving, the date paved will stay the same even if you run past midnight
5. Day or Night. If you have 24 hour shifts, it is critical this be filled out so the correct delivery tickets can be
compared with the correct paving shift.
6. Sublot. There are 4 sublots per lot. The sublot size is either 500 tons or 1000 tons. See Spec. 334-5.1.2.
7. Truck Load #s. Record trucks in the order of load placement.
8. Intended Use. A drop down box appears. Fill in required information. What is the difference between No
Pay Tonnage and Waste? Waste leaves the job.. No Pay Tonnage stays on the job, i.e., temporary
asphalt, corrections.
9. Density. Is Density required in this area? See Spec. 334-5.1.1.2
10. Lane. Drop Down Box.

11. Description. This is NOT a drop down box. You will need to put some kind of description in here, i.e.,
Mainline, Street name, radius.
12. Lift # of #. This is where you put what lift you are on and how many lifts are planned for in the plans.
13. Start Paving at Station. This is where you place the station number where the spread rate check begins.
Unfortunately all mile post projects need to be converted to station numbers. How many station boards are
required on a project? See Spec. 5-7.4
14. End Paving at Station. This is where you place the station number where the spread rate check ends.
15. Length. The computer automatically fills this in for you based off your beginning and ending station
numbers.
16. Width. The QC Technician fills in the width of the paving pass. Under the Varied width section, place the
average width in here.
17. Area Paved (SY). The computer automatically fills this in for you.
18. Quantity (TN). The QC Technician fills in this field. What is the maximum that can be placed here? See
Spec 330-2.2.

Now we have finished the spread rate calculations. But, we have another area to fill in if needed.
25
1. The Comments Section. This is a sample from another project where comments were placed. In this section
the QC Technician would give explanations of anything out of the ordinary, i.e., if a different QC Technician
was covering the project, asphalt in lieu of stabilized sub grade, explanation why spread rates are too high or
too low, multiple crews, what happened to a missing load or trucks out of order.

Roadway QC is to
record asphalt
temperature for the first
five loads and one out
of every five loads
thereafter onto the
delivery ticket

Overbuild
1. Record all overbuild as a separate line item on the
QC Roadway Report .
2. Record correct lane number, starting and ending station
numbers, width, lift number, and average lift thickness.

Density Reporting
58
Density Coring
1. Obtain five 6 inch diameter roadway cores within 24 hours of
placement at random locations as directed by the Engineer
within each sublot. In situations where it is impractical to cut
five cores per sublot, obtain a minimum of three cores per
sublot at random locations as identified by the Engineer (VT
to layout and mark core locations).
2. Do not obtain cores any closer than 12 inches from an
unsupported edge.
3. Patch the core holes within three days of coring.
Continue
59
Density Coring
4. Compact the end of the mat with the same effort as the
beginning of the mat. (Note: A core location can fall at the
end of a days production within 12 of the stopping point.)
5. The VT is to layout the IV core locations and they are
independent from QC core locations.
6. Cut core at exact location marked on pavement (must be
within the paint area).

Straightedge
1. Final Type SP structural and friction course layers,
pavement lanes, and ramps with constant width to 3/16
inch.
2. Exceptions (Spec. 330-9):
a. Shoulders, intersections, tapers, crossovers, parking
lots and similar areas.
b. Areas less than 250 LF as in turn lanes, acceleration &
deceleration lanes and side-streets.
c. Any area in the exceptions that is objectionable in
excess of 3/8 inch.

4. Engineer may waive requirements: transverse joints at the
beginning and end of the project, manholes, utility
structures, ramps and super-elevated sections that may
result in an inaccurate measurement.

Square Yards
113
Asphalt Base is a Square Yard Pay Item, and the Square Yards
from the Road Reports are used for each Lots CPF.
Good Square Yards are needed to make sure the spread rate for
base stays within 5% of Target. Per Specs it is not allowed to pay
for any tonnage over 5% of the Target Spread Rate.
