Stone. Minimum stone size for this Project shall be VDOT RBS Class AI. In addition, riprap stone shall consist of fresh, sound, hard, dense, durable rock which shall be separated from bedrock by quarrying. The stone shall be free from open or incipient cracks, seams, fissures and structural planes of weakness, and other defects that would tend to increase deterioration by natural causes. See Plans for stone sizes.

Stone. 5.4.1 The Contractor shall visit various stone quarries operating in the nearby region and ascertain the levels and areas in which stone of good and acceptable quality is likely to be available. It is for the Contractor to investigate his own quarries which will yield stone in sufficient quantities and of required quality for the works. However, if a quarry location ascertained by the Contractor does not yield adequate and suitable stone, no claim will be entertained and other quarry locations will have to be investigated and established by the Contractor at his own cost and risk. The quality of stone from all quarries shall be got approved by the Engineer-in-charge before using it on the work. The contractor shall have to make arrangements at his own cost for construction and maintenance of all roads leading to and fro from the stone quarries as required by him.
5.4.2 The locations of quarries have to be such that they do not affect permanent structures as well as should not be near existing or proposed habitation. The locations and sizes of quarries shall be subject to approval of the Engineer-in- charge. However, if a quarry location approved by the Engineer-in-charge, on its opening, does not yield adequate and / or suitable stones, no claim can be raised against the department. In that case other quarries will have to be established by the Contractor at his own cost and risk and the stone got approved from the department for its quality before using it in the work.
5.4.3 If the stone quarries are located in the lands acquired by the department, the Contractor would be allowed to quarry the rubble from these areas. If the quarries are located in private properties, the Contractor shall make his own arrangements to the legal rights and attend to payment etc. to the concerned parties for operation of these quarries at his own cost. Similarly he shall make arrangement for roads leading to and from the stone quarries to the work site at his own cost.
5.4.4 In the stone quarries, where weak rocks like volcanic breccias etc. are met with, such rocks will be rejected and not allowed for use in the masonry. The quarrying will have to be adjusted to avoid these and other types of weak rocks.
Stone. Granite or limestone accents will be provided at areas of the building. The stone material will be 1 1/4" thick mounted on a structural stud framing system. 04000 MASONRY
