The entire sub-grade shall be compacted to not less than 95% of the
maximum dry density per (ASTM D1557 or AASHTO T180) while within
SAES-Q-006
A6 1.5% of the optimum moisture content (for cohesive soils) or to 85% of
Sec. 5.1
relative density (ASTM D4253 and ASTM D4254) (for cohesionless
soils).

is in a condition satisfactory to the Saudi Aramco representative. Sec. 5.1

The subgrade shall be constructed so that after being compacted it will

conform to the alignment, grade, and cross-section shown on the

The sub-grade shall be kept drained during the placing and compaction SAES-Q-006
A13
of the base course or sub-base surface. Sec. 5.1

The finished sub-grade shall be maintained in a smooth and compacted

SAES-Q-006
