peer agreement (net): +2| terraplén préstamo embankment, borrow material Explanation: I think what you have here is the embankment being made with material from two different sources. 1st the material excavated on-site and 2nd material from somewhere else, i.e. the borrow material (préstamo), so I think I would say: m3 embankment, excavated material m3 embankment, borrow material See ref below for more info: This work consists of preparing areas upon which embankments are to be placed; excavating for the roadways and channels, including the removal of all material encountered not being removed under another item; ****constructing embankments with the excavated material and material from other approved sources as necessary to complete the planned embankments***; furnishing and incorporating all water required for compacting embankment; disposing of unsuitable and surplus material and finishing shoulders, slopes, and ditches. All excavation is considered unclassified excavation. If the excavation contains regulated materials such as garbage, solid waste, and hazardous waste or material, the Contract Documents will detail the removal for these items. ***Use all suitable excavated material in the work***. Alternatively, legally use, recycle, or dispose of all excavated materials according to 105.16 and 105.17. C. Borrow. Material obtained from approved sources, located outside the construction limits that are required for the construction of the embankment. When borrow is specified or used, use suitable materials that conform to 203.02.R. http://www.dot.state.oh.us/construction/OCA/Specs/2002CMS/Sp... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 10 mins (2005-05-15 10:17:31 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Where embankment is not a separate pay item, payment for roadway excavation shall be made under 203 Excavation Including Embankment Construction, which shall include payment for placing suitable excavated material in embankment. If borrow is needed to complete planned embankments, it shall be measured and paid for separately under 203 Borrow. No excavated material shall be disposed of without permission; and all suitable material from excavation, or an equivalent volume from other sources, shall be used for planned embankments to the extent of project requirements. http://www.dot.state.oh.us/spec/203.htm |
