    GENERAL PROVISIONS

    This Technical Specification applies to earthworks in public roads construction and includes theconditions to follow during the earthworks construction with regard to excavation, transport,

    compaction, levelling and finishing of the works, as well as the quality control and acceptancecriteria.

    The Contractor shall perform, in an authorised laboratory, all the tests required by the TechnicalSpecifications and any other tests required by the Engineer.

    Apart from the Technical Specifications, the Contractor shall respect the stipulations of thestandards and norms in force.

    14 days before starting the works the Contractor shall submit for the Engineers approval, theMethod Statement for earthwork construction and that shall include:

    Detailed programme of earthworks construction The equipment necessary for excavation, transport, spreading, watering, compacting and

    finishing Borrow pits and earth storage places (temporary and permanent) and the related Method

    Statement and also the access to each of them. Temporary road diversions for the public traffic during the works construction Diagram of Earthworks Displacement.

    In order to determine the details of the compaction Method Statement, trial sections shall beexecuted by the Contractor, on his own expense; the size and location of the trial sections shall bedecided together with the Engineer.After executing the trial section, the Method Statement shall be completed with informationregarding the compacting Method Statement:

    - The features of the compaction equipment (weight, width, tire pressure, vibrationparameters, speed)

    - Number of passes with and without vibration to achieve the degree of compaction accordingto the Technical Specification stipulations.

    - The thickness of the layer before and after compaction.

    The Contractor shall ensure that by all procedures applied, he fulfils the requirements of theTechnical Specifications.

    The Contractor shall record on a daily basis data related to the construction of the works and theobtained results of measurements, samples and tests.

    1 MATERIALS

    1.1 Top Soil

    The topsoil good for vegetation shall be used to cover the surfaces that have to be seeded andplanted.

    1.2 Soils for earthworks

    The types of soils used for earthworks are showed in Tables 1a and 1b.

    In case the soil, in the area where earthworks are to be executed, is of bad or very bad quality(see Table 1b) it shall be replaced with a suitable quality soil or it shall be stabilised eithermechanically or using binders (quick lime, power plant ashes etc).Replacing or stabilising the earth shall be executed over the entire width of the platform with aminimum 20 cm depth for the bad quality soil and minimum 50 cm for the very bad quality soil orin case the dry density is less than 1.5g/cm 3 .The clayey soil type 4d shall be replaced or stabilised in at least 15 cm depth.The clayey soils of medium quality can be used provided that the STAS 1709/1,2,3-90 stipulationsregarding the prevention of deterioration caused by freezing thawing are respected.

    The inorganic soils of bad and very bad quality as well as the organic soils, silts, mud, top soil,soft soils (consistency index less than 0.75) and soils containing more than 5% water soluble saltsshall not be used for embankment construction.The Contractor shall not use materials that:

    - are frozen;- contain organic matter in decay (grass, branches, roots).

    The soil containing water soluble sulfates more than 1.9 g/l (SO 3 ) shall not be stored or used asfilling material nearby/in the proximity of the concrete works.

    1.3 Water

    Water used for compaction of the earthworks shall be clear and it shall not contain either inorganicor organic suspensions.

    1.4 Quality control of soils

    Before starting the works, the Contractor shall determine the quality and estimate the quantity ofmaterials from the borrow pits. The documents will be submitted to the Engineer for approval.The materials used for earthworks shall also have the Engineers approval before starting the works.
