Meeting Summary
June 30, 2014Attendees: Amy Fong, Nick Burmas, Paul Burdick, Deepak Maskey, Tom Tietz*, Jeff Wycoff *, and Don Greb* (Note: * = on phone)
Intro:
Nick Burmas is the new acting Office Chief for the Concrete Pavement and Pavement Foundation office. Nick came from the Division of Research and Innovation.
Paul Burdick is retiring from State Service on July 11. Amy Fong will take over Paul’s responsibilities.
Project Status:
Intelligent Compaction – HMA and CIR nSSPs are complete. The IC machine will measure compaction coverage, and temperature. There will be 6 to 10 pilot projects each for HMA and CIR. FDR IC spec is on hold until there are additional FDR projects.
2015 Specs – Overall, the 2015 specs a few months behind schedule. However, pavement foundation specification sections 24 to 30 changes are on schedule. The spec moratorium is expected to be lifted in summer 2015. Therefore, no new standard specifications can be published until the second half of 2015.
Scoping Document (SD) – New scoping document propose to establish QA requirements including QC sampling and testing for sections 24 to 29 has been approved.
Outstanding Action Item: Don Vivant needs to establish industry Subtask Group members.
Round Table:
Don Grebe wants to make changes to the soil stabilization and FDR specifications. Don believes that 97% compaction requirement is not needed and would like to go back to 95% compaction. Paul will send Don an example of a Scoping Document to initiate the process. The new scoping document should be sent to Don Vivant since he is the Task Group Co-Chair. Typically, scoping documents are submitted at the end of the calendar year. However, they can be submitted now and place in the bin list until then. RPC Co-Chairs will prioritize projects.
Deepak mentioned that lime stabilize soils spec edited for compensation for ordered increases in additives is still nSSP. It will be publish as standard after spec moratorium is lifted.
Everyone expressed thanks to Paul for his great work and enjoyed working with him over the years!
Next meeting will be in 3 months. Meeting adjourned at 3:40pm.
