would be: 1201 A, 1201 B, etc.). Test data and results must be filled out on the field density test <br /> form. <br /> 3.3.2 Test Locations <br /> The intent of the CQA program is to provide confidence that the earthwork materials and work <br /> conform to the technical specifications. To meet this intent, the QA/QC Inspector will perform <br /> density tests of earthfills,clay liner, and any other soil products used during construction. Density <br /> tests must be located at various elevations and uniformly dispersed throughout the entire plan <br /> dimensions of the fill. Density test locations must be chosen without bias; however, additional <br /> testing can be performed in any areas that are suspect, marginal, or appear to be of poor quality. <br /> During the progress of the work,density test locations will be plotted on a drawing by the QA/QC <br /> Inspector to verify that no significant areas are untested. The drawing becomes part of the CQA <br /> report. <br /> 3.4 Monitoring and Testing Requirements <br /> Earthwork components of the construction are summarized in Paragraph 3.1 of this section. Each <br /> component has specific construction requirements that must be monitored. The following sections <br /> list monitoring requirements for each type of earthwork. <br /> 3.4.1 Stockpiling and Soil Management <br /> • Review Contractor's approved work plan submittal. Verifying stockpile locations, <br /> stockpile dimensions,haul routes,material segregation procedures,and erosion,sediment <br /> and drainage control measures. Determine and note corrective action items,if applicable. <br /> • During excavation, hauling, and stockpiling operations continually identify and verify <br /> material classifications in accordance with ASTM D2478 and ASTM D2488 as necessary <br /> to characterize material stockpile designations. Work closely with Contractor's quality <br /> control personnel to classify materials using the rapid field tests described in ASTM <br /> D2488. <br /> • Verify that stockpiles are constructed with slopes no greater than two horizontal to one <br /> vertical and that the top surface maintains a minimum 5 percent grade. Verify slopes and <br /> grades using hand held levels and inclinometers,range poles, and measuring tapes. <br /> 3.4.2 Excavations <br /> • Verify that construction staking is performed before work and that survey bench marks <br /> with elevations are secured outside the work area. <br /> • Verify that excavated materials are segregated into proper stockpiles. <br /> Page 16 <br />
