The EPDM rubber will be 0.5mm-1.5mm EPDM granules. EPDM granules shall be of the same color as the polyurethane. Color to be Dark Blue (Navy Blue). d) Polyurethane Binder Binder for the black rubber mat shall be an MDI-based and/or MDI/TDI mixture, mono-component, polyurethane-binding agent. The binding agent shall not have a TDI monomer level above 0.2%, must be clear in color, not milky, and must be solvent free. The binding agent must be specifically formulated for compatibility with SBR rubber crumb. e) Structural Spray Coating The spray coating shall be the MDI-based and/or MDI/TDI mixture, one or two-component, moisture-cured, pigmented polyurethane, specifically formulated for compatibility with EPDM granules. The coating shall be in Dark Blue color (Navy Bue). f) Line Marking Paint The line marking paint shall be polyurethane-based, single component moisture cured paint specifically manufactured to be compatible with polyurethane synthetic track surfaces. 4. Execution a) Sub-base The Synthetic Track Surfacing System shall be laid on a sub-base designed and approved by a licensed Engineer. The successful bidder shall provide compaction test results of 95% or greater for the installed sub-base and the finished asphalt or concrete surface. It should be the responsibility of the successful bidder to flood the surface immediately after the asphalt is capable of handling traffic, but within 24 hours. If, after 20 minutes of drying time, there are birdbaths evident, it shall be the responsibility of the successful bidder to determine the method of correction. No cold tar patching, skin patching or sand and oil mix patching will be acceptable. Any oil spills (hydraulic, diesel, motor oil, etc.) must be completely removed, either by chipping out or removing and replacing with new, keyed in asphalt. The minimum depth of any asphalt replacement shall be 1". The curing time for the asphalt is 14-21 days. It shall be the responsibility of the successful bidder to determine if the asphalt substrate has cured sufficiently prior to the application of polyurethane surfacing system. It shall be the responsibility of the successful bidder to determine if the asphalt substrate meets all design specifications, i.e. cross slopes, planarity and specific project criteria. Upon completion of surface test and correction of any defects, successful bidder shall submit to Engineer or Owner a signed certificate stating the existing surface is acceptable and satisfactory for the installation of his track surface system. 5. Synthetic Track Synthetic Track Surface can be laid on any smooth, stable base such as asphalt or concrete. It forms a resilient, economical and hardwearing surface that is resistant to UV degradation, abrasion, shrinkage, mold and most common oils and chemicals. Color: Dark Blue (Navy Blue). a) Curing Before application of the synthetic surface can begin, the asphalt should be cured for at least 14- 21 days, and a concrete base for a minimum of 28 days. b) Cleaning The area to be surfaced shall be clean and free of any loose or foreign particles (dirt, oil, etc.) prior to commencement of the work. The surface is usually cleaned by use of a power blower and/or high-pressure washer. c) Priming The primer shall be spray-applied in accordance with the Manufacturer`s specifications. Only those areas that can be installed the same day should be primed. d) Blue Mat Job mix formulas shall be as follows: i. SBR Rubber 1mm-3mm ii. Binding Agent 18-20% of total rubber weight The Dark Blue SBR rubber granules and polyurethane binding agent are blended together using state of the art automatic metering mixer for a period of 2-3 minutes for a precise measured ratio. No hand mixing is allowed. The blended materials are then spread onto the asphalt/concrete base by means of a fully automatic paving machine with control sensors at a rate of 16-16.5 pounds per square yard. The fully automatic paving machine shall have a heated oscillating screed bar to obtain both smoothness and compaction. The heated screed bar normally works at a temperature of 158F to 176 F. The laying procedure shall be bay-to-bay and limiting the length of the passes to avoid having any cold (cured) joints between the bays. At the beginning of each new day`s work, the traverse joint from the previous day`s work shall be tack coated to ensure a good bond. Small irregularities remaining in the surface after the fully automatic paving machine has passed may be removed using a light polyethylene or Teflon roller or hand troweled. The surface hardens through the reaction of the binding agent with humidity. The speed of the reaction depends on temperature and relative humidity. Usually the surface may be walked upon the next day. Synthetic track materials are to be placed only when temperature is above 45F and rising. No materials should be placed when surfaces are wet or damp, precipitation is falling or imminent, or when other unsuitable conditions for the installation of the system are present. e) Structural Spray Wearing Coats Job mix formulas shall be as follows: i. Structural Spray 60% by weight ii. EPDM Rubber 0.5mm-1.5mm 40% by weight After the blue mat has properly cured, apply a thixotropic mixture, using black structural spray and black EPDM granules, mixed using state of the art automatic metering mixer for a precise measured ratio, then spray-applied using the latest air spray equipment designed to handle this heavy rubber mixture. The structural spray coating is applied in two applications utilizing 1.80 pounds per square yard for each application. C. MARKINGS & ART 1. The word TIGERS will be painted as shown in Attachment "H" - Marks & Logo. It will be one letter per lane, centered, from lane #2 to lane #7. Letters will be in Orange color with a white background and in Ohio Collegiate Regular font, 40" x 40" approximately. High Jump area will include the school mascot (tiger) with up to 5-colors, 15' x 15' approximately, as shown in Attachment "H" - Logo. 2. All line and event markings shall be applied by experienced personnel, utilizing polyurethane-based paint that is compatible with the synthetic track surfacing. 3. All marking dimensions will be certified in accordance with the specifications issued by the appropriate sanctioning or governing body such as NFHS and IAAF, as applicable. 4. No striping operations may commence if temperature is 45F and falling. 5. Do not place any paint under wet or damp conditions or when relative humidity is above 85%. 6. The line-striping machine shall be capable of producing neat, clean edges on all lines.
