    QCS 2010 Section 6 Part 5 Asphalt Works Page 26

    4 The tolerances herein specified shall not invalidate the tolerances set forth for the evenness
    of surface of the asphalt paving course.

    5 As directed by the engineer the laid thickness shall be checked by cutting test pits and/or
    using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for the determination of the structural capacity of the
    pavement.

    5.11.6 Evenness of Surface

    1 The Engineer shall test the evenness of surface for each course of the various asphalt
    paving courses to determine compliance.

    2 The Contractor shall put at the disposal of the Engineer a 3 m long straightedge and a crown
    template of sturdy and approved design and enough labour to assist in the checking

    operations.

    3 Any layer containing deviations or variations exceeding the tolerances specified here shall
    be corrected or removed and replaced in accordance with the instructions of the Engineer
    and to his satisfaction.

    4 The longitudinal regularity of the surface of the wearing course shall be within the relevant
    limits given in Table 5.3.

    Table 5.3
    Wearing Course Road Surface

    Irregularity 4 mm 7 mm

    Length (m) 300 75 300 75


    Minor Roads 40 18 4 2
    Major Roads1 20 9 2 1

    1- Major Roads shall mean primary, secondary and any dual carriageways. Minor Roads are all other roads.

    5 Any irregularity is a variation of not less than 4 mm or 7 mm of the profile of the road surface
    as measured by a rolling straight edge. No irregularity exceeding 10 mm shall be permitted.

    6 Compliance with Table 5.3 above shall be tested with a rolling straight edge along any line or
    lines parallel to the centre line of the pavement on sections of 300 m selected by the
    Engineer, whether or not it is constructed in shorter lengths. Sections shorter than 300 m
    forming part of a longer pavement shall be assessed using the number of irregularities for a
    300 m length prorated to the nearest whole number. Where the total length of pavement is
    less than 300 m the measurements shall be taken in 75 m lengths.

    7 Pavements shall also be measured transversely for irregularities at points decided by the
    Engineer by a 3 m long straight edge placed at right angles to the centre line of the road.
    The maximum allowable differences between the pavement surface and the straight edge
    shall be 3 mm.
    8 For major roads the International Roughness Index (IRI) shall be used to monitor the
    roughness and condition of the pavement surface. The acceptable IRI for ride quality shall
    be decided by the engineer.

    5.11.7 Pavement Evaluation Techniques


    1 Pavement evaluation tests shall be carried out for the completed pavement structure at any
    point of the road as directed by the Engineer to assess the serviceability condition of the
    pavement and verify compliance with specifications.
