ITEM 311 - PORTLAND CEMENT CONCRETE PAVEMENT
311.1 DESCRIPTION
Add the following paragraphs to Section 311.1:
The introduction of minimum values for International Roughness Index (IRI) as part of the
basis for acceptance of newly constructed concrete and asphalt road projects requires more
accurate process control on the Contractor’s part. The Contractor’s Quality Control Plan shall
include for the Engineer’s review and acceptance, a process control flow chart, and a
Method Statement covering all activities in the process, describing how the activities will be
managed and undertaken to deliver the specified IRI values.
International best practice indicates that factors critical to success include:
• a well-chosen concrete mixture

• reasonable grades and alignment to suit the paver
• tight level control or string line management
• continuous supply of concrete to the paver
• consistent concrete workability
• well-maintained paving equipment
• proper operation of paving equipment
• controlled density of concrete – just the right vibration and finishing
• a skilled and dedicated team.

Add the following paragraphs to Section 311.2.12
To achieve smooth pavements with values for International Roughness Index (IRI) of not
more than 3.0 m/km, the Contractor shall consider tightening the ranges and tolerances of
mix design components to produce a more consistent mix, and include revised target values
in the Contractor’s Quality Control Plan and Method Statement.
311.3.2 Equipment
Add the following paragraphs to Section 311.3.2 (3)
more than 3.0 m/km, the Contractor shall ensure that the paver control system is capable of
smooth adjustments to automatically follow the surface shape (elevations and grades)
required. The preferred method is laser control following a surface shape input to the on-
board computer.
Philipps Technical
Page 52
Consultants Corp.
April 2019
311.3.3 Preparation of Grade
Add the following paragraphs to Section 311.3.3
more than 3.0 m/km, the Contractor shall ensure that the subgrade or base is prepared
using equipment with a control system capable of smooth adjustments to automatically
follow the surface shape (elevations and grades) required. The preferred method is laser
control following a surface shape input to the on-board computer.
311.3.4 Setting Forms
Replace with the following paragraphs entire Section 311.3.4 (3)
The alignment and grade elevations of the forms shall be checked and corrections made by
the Contractor immediately before placing the concrete. To ensure compliance to the
maximum International Roughness Index (IRI) set by the Department, checking using
appropriate surveying instruments shall be done at 5.0 m intervals along the top portion of
the forms with a tolerance +/- 0.001 m.
When any form has been disturbed or any grade has become unstable, the form shall be
reset and rechecked. Also, when any form has been badly deteriorated which could affect
the smoothness of the surface; the form shall be replaced and not be used in any future
paving works.
311.3.14 Surface Test
Replace with the following paragraphs entirety Section 311.3.14
Paved shoulders shall be subjected to surface test using a 3-m straight-edge. All areas within
the carriageway shall be subjected to surface test using an approved profiling system. The
profiling system shall qualify as Class 1 roughness measurement device and shall conform to
the latest version ASTM E-950/E950M.
The components of the profiling system shall be validated on regular basis per
manufacturer’s recommendations to ensure that the system is properly calibrated.
Validation reports shall be generated, for presentation to the Engineer, confirming that the
validations are current, and within tolerances specified by the manufacturer.
The acceptable Internal Roughness Index (IRI) for concrete pavements shall be not more
than 3.0 m/km for National Primary Road, measured in 100 meter sections, at the time of
completion.
Prior to any testing, the road surface for test shall be cleaned of loose or deleterious
material by brooming or other approved means. Survey shall only be conducted on dry
pavement surfaces only. Wide-beam lasers are recommended for textured surfaces like
diamond ground, diamond grooved or tyned surfaces where they yield lower IRI values than
single point or spot lasers.
Prior to data collection, a test segment with a length of 500 meters will be selected at site
for repeatability test. The repeatability test shall be witnessed by the authorized
representative of the contractor and the project engineer. Five profile runs will be made on
Philipps Technical
Page 53
Consultants Corp.
April 2019
the test segment for repeatability test. The profile runs for repeatability are acceptable if the
average IRI of the two wheel paths satisfy the following criteria:
a. The IRI values of each of the five (5) runs are within 1% of the mean IRI of the selected
runs.
b. The standard deviations of IRI of the selected runs are within 2% of the mean IRI.
If the runs do not meet the above criteria, the Profiling Team shall determine if the
variability between runs are due to operator or equipment error, and make additional
runs until five (5) runs free of equipment or operator errors are obtained. Where
necessary an accuracy calibration test shall be conducted in comparison with a Class 1
Profiler (SSI Walking Profiler CS8800 or similar) to resolve said errors.
If the IRI values from the profile runs (for repeatability) meet the above criteria, three (3)
runs per lane per site should be conducted for acceptance measurement. The IRI value for
the lane shall be the average IRI of the two wheel paths for the three (3) runs combined.
If the IRI value of the whole concrete pavement meets the required value regardless if there
are areas found to have exceeded the required IRI value, no correction shall be required,
provided that the areas with exceedance have an IRI value within the tolerance limit of
0.5m/km.
However, if the IRI value of the whole concrete pavement falls beyond the prescribed IRI of
3.0 m/km for National Primary Roads and exceeds the allowable tolerance, the contractor
may opt to undertake corrective action, otherwise, pay adjustment shall be made. The
completed concrete pavement shall be accepted on a LOT basis. A LOT shall be considered
as 100 linear meters of a lane of pavement. If the length of the last lot is less than 100m, it
shall be considered as a separate lot. LOT disincentive pay/pay deduction will be calculated
as prescribed in the table below:
Portland Cement Concrete Pavement (PCCP)

Pay Adjustment Table

4.51 to 5.00 55%
5.01 to 5.50 35%
5.51 to 6.00 15%
Above 6.00 0%
If the contractor undertakes corrective action, further IRI Survey will be conducted to
validate if the pavement irregularities had been eliminated. Only one IRI survey will be done
after the corrective action takes place. If the IRI value of the whole concrete pavement
meets the prescribed IRI value of 3.0 m/km for National Primary Road and any 100 m
sections exceeding the prescribed value are within the allowable tolerance after correction,
Philipps Technical

no reduction in payment will be made; otherwise, pay adjustment shall be made based on
the above Pay Adjustment Table.
311.3.19 Concrete Pavement – Slip Form
Add the following at the end of the paragraph to Section 311.3.19 (1)
Slip form paver requires a guidance system. The preferred method is laser control following a
surface shape input to the on-board computer. Where the alternative of guide wires are to
be used, they should be properly tensioned, installed parallel to the edges of the
construction at both sides of the work area and maintained at fixed height and tension in
order to meet the maximum IRI set by the Department. Checking using appropriate
surveying instruments of the guide wire elevations shall be done at 0.50 m intervals with a
tolerance of +/- 0.001m.
Add the following paragraphs as Section 311.3.19 (7)
7. Guide Wires
For flat terrain, guide wire shall be supported at 10.0 m intervals. For curves and tie-ins
to existing pavement, guide wires shall be supported at 5.0 m intervals.
311.3.20 Acceptance of Concrete
Add the following paragraph at the beginning of Section 311.3.20
No acceptance and final payment shall be made for the completed concrete pavement
unless core test for thickness determination is conducted, except for Barangay Roads where
the implementing office is allowed to waive such test, and for National Primary Roads
where the concrete pavement shall also meet the International Road Roughness (IRI)
criteria at the time of completion. The concrete pavement shall only be considered
accepted if it meets the specified IRI value at the time of completion.
