> This guideline was prepared utilizing the below references. The checks
> included in the guidelines are considered to be the major items and
> can be supplemented as deemed necessary by the inspecting party. The
> Area Engineer is provided the flexibility of using the guideline in
> its entirety or portions depending on the job conditions and/or time
> limitations.
>
> **NOTE**: The vast majority of paving done on \_\_DOT projects today
> utilize performance related specifications. Under performance related
> specifications, the contractor is responsible for compacting the
> pavement within a specified density range (Series 50, 60, and 70).
> Because the contractor is responsible for compacting the pavement,
> then the contractor should have the authority to dictate factors such
> as mix temperature (165 °C is the maximum), rolling trains, patterns,
> or passes.

> **HMA Materials**
>
> Materials mixed at any HMA plant must have prior State approval.
> Course and fine aggregate sources must be approved by the Regional
> Materials Engineer. The Superpave Mix Design must satisfy the
> requirements of Section XXX and the mixture design procedure as
> written in Materials Method X.X and be submitted to the Regional
> Materials Engineer. The State DOT website has a list of all approved
> material sources/suppliers.

##################### Part I : Paving Operation - Field Portion {#part-i-paving-operation---field-portion .unnumbered}

> **Pre-paving Meeting**- Prior to the start of the paving operation, a
> pre-paving meeting should be held approximately one week before paving
> operations commence and key personnel (placement, inspection and
> supply). The contractor should present the paving \'plan\' discussing
> surface preparation, paving and compaction widths/sequences,
> temperatures, compaction, equipment pre-check arrangements, etc. Such
> meetings shall be documented in the Engineer\'s Diary. Was a
> pre-paving meeting held? YES      NO

############################### Weather and Seasonal Limitations (specification reference)

> Do not place HMA plant mix on any wet surface or when the surface
> temperature is less than specified in Table XXX, Temperature and
> Seasonal Requirements, or when weather conditions will prevent proper
> handling or finishing of the HMA mixtures.
