inches/mile, the computed pay factor will be 75 percent. When the
Profile Index exceeds the tolerance by 63 mm/km 4.0 inches/mile or
more, the lot shall be removed and replaced at no additional cost to
the GovernmentOwner. Regardless of the above, any small individual
area with surface deviation which exceeds the tolerance given above by
more than 79 mm/km 5.0 inches/mile or more, shall be corrected by
grinding to meet the specification requirements above or shall be
removed and replaced at no additional cost to the GovernmentOwner.
c. Bumps ("Must Grind" Areas). Any bumps ("must grind" areas) shown
on the profilograph trace which exceed 10 mm 0.4 inch in height shall
be reduced by diamond grinding until they do not exceed 7.5 mm 0.3 inch
when retested. Such grinding shall be tapered in all directions to
provide smooth transitions to areas not requiring grinding. The
following will not be permitted: (1) skin patching for correcting low
areas, (2) planing or milling for correcting high areas. At the
Contractor's option, pavement areas, including ground areas, may be
rechecked with the profilograph in order to record a lower Profile
Index.
