Section 652--Painting Traffic Stripe 652.1 General Description This work includes furnishing and applying reflectorized high build standard and high build wet weather traffic line paint according to the plans and these specifications. This Item also includes applying words and symbols according to plan details, specifications, and the current Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 652.1.01 Definitions Painted Stripes: Solid or broken (skip) lines. The location and color are designated on the plans. Skip Traffic Stripes: Painted segments with unpainted gaps as specified on the plans. The location and color are designated on the plans. 652.1.02 Related References A. Standard Specifications General Provisions 101 through 150.

Traffic Line Paint Material Section Traffic Line Paint 6A and 6B 870.2.02.A.4 and 870.2.02.A.5 1194 1194 Section 652 -- Painting Traffic Stripe B. Glass Spheres and Reflective Composite Optics Use glass spheres and/or reflective composite optics for the reflective media system that ensures the high build paint pavement markings meet the reflectance performance requirements in Subsection 652.3.06. Do not use glass spheres and/or reflective composite optics containing greater than 200 ppm total arsenic, 200 ppm total antimony, or 200 ppm total lead when tested according to the most recent US EPA Methods 3052 and 6010, or other approved methods. Ensure glass spheres meet the requirements of AAHTO M 247. Use glass spheres produced from an approved source listed on QPL 71. Glass beads conforming to an alternative gradation may be used provided all other requirements of AASHTO M 247 and this specification are met. Obtain approval from the Office of Materials and Research to use alternate gradations. 652.2.01 Delivery, Storage, and Handling A. Storage Ensure the paint does not cake, liver, thicken, curdle, gel, or show any other objectionable properties after storage for six months above 32F (0 C). B. Handling Mix thoroughly before use. 652.3 Construction Requirements 652.3.01 Personnel General Provisions 101 through 150. A. Traveling Traffic Stripe Painter Use a traffic stripe painter that can travel at a predetermined speed both uphill and downhill, applying paint uniformly. Ensure that the painter feeds paint under pressure through nozzles spraying directly onto the pavement. Use a paint machine equipped with the following: 1. Three adjacent spray nozzles capable of simultaneously applying separate stripes, either solid or skip, in any pattern. 2. Nozzles equipped with the following: o Cutoff valves for automatically applying broken or skip lines o A mechanical bead dispenser that operates simultaneously with the spray nozzle to uniformly distribute glass spheres and/or reflective composite optics at an application rate to meet the reflectance performance requirements in Subsection 652.3.06. o Line-guides consisting of metallic shrouds or air blasts 3. Tanks with mechanical agitators 4. Small, portable applicators or other special equipment as needed B. Hand Painting Equipment Use brushes, templates, and guides when hand painting. C. Cleaning Equipment Use brushes, brooms, scrapers, grinders, high-pressure water jets, or air blasters to remove dirt, dust, grease, oil, and other foreign matter from painting surfaces without damaging the underlying pavement. 1195 1195 Section 652 -- Painting Traffic Stripe 652.3.03 Preparation Locate approved paint manufacturers on QPL 46. Before starting each day's work, thoroughly clean paint machine tanks, connections, and spray nozzles, using the appropriate solvent. Thoroughly mix traffic stripe paint in the shipping container before putting it into machine tanks. Before painting, thoroughly clean pavement surfaces of dust, dirt, grease, oil, and all other foreign matter. 652.3.04 Fabrication General Provisions 101 through 150. 652.3.05 Construction A. Alignment Ensure that the traffic stripe is the specified length, width, and placement. On sections where no previously applied markings are present, ensure accurate stripe location by establishing control points at spaced intervals. The Engineer will approve control points. B. Application Apply traffic stripe paint by machine. If areas or markings are not adaptable to machine application, use hand equipment. 1. Application Rate Paint will be subject to application rate checks. Apply 5 in (125 mm) wide traffic stripe at the following minimum rates: a. Solid Traffic Stripe Paint: At least 34 gal/mile (80 L/km) b. Skip Traffic Stripe Paint: At least 10 gal/mile (24 L/km) NOTE: Change minimum rate proportionately for varying stripe widths. 2. Thickness Maintain 25 mils (0.58mm) minimum wet average thickness above the surface of the pavement. 3. Do not apply paint to areas of pavement when: o The surface is moist or covered with foreign matter. o Air temperature in the shade is below 50 F (10 C) o Wind causes dust to land on prepared areas or blows paint and glass spheres and/or reflective composite optics around during application 4. Apply a layer of glass spheres and/or reflective composite optics immediately after laying the paint. Apply glass spheres and/or reflective composite optics at a rate to meet the reflectance performance requirements in Subsection 652.3.06. C. Protective Measures Protect newly applied paint as follows: 1. Traffic Control and protect traffic with warning and directional signs during painting. Set up warning signs before beginning each operation and place signs well ahead of the painting equipment. When necessary, use a pilot car to protect both the traffic and the painting operation. 1196 1196 Section 652 -- Painting Traffic Stripe 2. Fresh Paint Protect the freshly painted stripe using cones or drums. Repair stripe damage or pavement smudges caused by traffic according to Subsection 652.3.06. D. Appearance and Tolerance of Variance Continually deviating from stated dimensions is cause for stopping the work and removing the nonconforming stripe. (See Section 656--Removal of Pavement Markings.) Adhere to the following measurements: 1. Width Do not lay stripe less than the specified width. Do not lay stripe more than 1/2 in. (13 mm) over the specified width. 2. Length Ensure that the 10 ft. (3 m) painted skip stripe and the 30 ft. (10 m) gap between painted segments vary no more than +- 1 ft. (300 mm) each. 3. Alignment a. Ensure that the stripe does not deviate from the intended alignment by more than 1 in. (25 m) on straight lines or curves of 1 degree or less. b. Ensure that the stripe does not deviate by more than 2 in. (50 mm) on curves exceeding 1 degree. 652.3.06 Quality Acceptance Mark face of envelope/package: Sealed Bid Number: "23-08 Sealed Bid 2023 LMIG Safety Action Plan Project for Madison County" Company Name Submit a minimum of two (2) original hard copies.
