Spreading Metal Sample Clauses
The "Spreading Metal" clause defines the process and requirements for distributing or applying metal materials over a specified area or surface. In practice, this clause may outline the types of metal to be used, the methods of spreading or installation, and any quality or safety standards that must be met during the process. Its core function is to ensure that metal is applied consistently and safely, preventing disputes over workmanship and ensuring compliance with project specifications.
Spreading Metal. When the contract calls for thickness of more than three inches in uncompacted condition, the surfacing shall be constructed in two or more course each course being not more than 75mm(3") or less than 37.5mm (1'/2"). The metal shall be spread true to the grade. line in cross section, and evenly to the uncompacted depth as provided in the contract.

When the contract calls for thickness of more than three inches in uncompacted condition, the surfacing shall be constructed in two or more course each course being not more than 75mm(3") or less than 37.5mm (1'/2"). The metal shall be spread true to the grade. line in cross section, and evenly to the uncompacted depth as provided in the contract. The metal shall be spread by means of approved spreader boxes or by manual labour using baskets, the men turning their hands smartly so also scalier the stones well. The materials as spread shall be well graded, shall have no pockets of coarse or fine materials and shall be free from segregation of fine and coarse particles. Loose material shall not be let in unspread heaps at the end of each day's work.
(c) Hand packing.- The metal .shall be packed to camber and grade, a set of three identical camber hoards with spirit level being constantly used in conjuction with a fish line a set of three boning rods in the following manner, with the aid of the boning rods, areas about one foot square and 9.14m(30') apart and along the centre line shall be first packed so that they are on the correct grade ahead of packing to camber. This shall be the reference points for grade and shall be readily identifiable Starting with the first tow of these points two strips about 450mm(18") wide shall then be packed to correct camber and two of the three camber boards firmly held over this. A fish line weighted at both ends shall be held taut over the ends of these two camber boards and parallel to the centre line of the road. To ensure correct . positioning .of the fish line camber boards shall be identically marked. Packing of the spread materials between these two camber boards shall then be commenced checking the camber by means of the third camber board moved slowly in between the end camber board. Hand packing shall be done by a row of four or five persons for a twelve foot pavement. After the area between the end camber boards is fully packed to correct camber and grade the first camber boards shall be moved over to the third reference point and the process repeated.
(d) Rolling-General:- All rolling shall be done by means of eight to ten power rollers. When hollow steel rollers are used they shall be suitably ballasted with sand or water as directed. In the case of power roller, care shall be taken that the roller is worked or started and stopped without jerks. he rollers shall not be stopped in the working section. In the cas...
