Embankment construction sequence:
Trang 11 Transport embankment material from the borrow pit to the site by dumptruck.
Place the embankment material on the site
Compact embankment material using roller to density requirement
Check the level and carry out the test compliance with the specified qualityrequirements
Construct another layer with the same above procedure until the designlevel
2.3 Method statement detail
2.3.1 Transport material to the site
The material used for embankment material will meet requirements ofembankment material and approved by Engineer before transported to the site.Because stockpiling of Embankment material is generally not be permitted,especially during the wet season so Embankment material generally will betransferred directly from the excavation or borrow areas to the prepared surfaceand spread during dry weather be dump truck
The embankment material will be placed on the site in pits with properdistances so that it will be leveled in the layer of specified thickness
2.3.2 Place the embankment material on the site
Use dump truck and bulldozer place the embankment in horizontal layerhorizontal layers suitable thick prior to compaction (base on type of layer) orsuch other thickness as may be confirmed by the Bidder’s trial sections and overeach edge of embankment about 20cm in order that the embankment is enoughfor compaction of shoulders The surplus material shall be trimmed and removed.Each layer shall be compacted as specified, tested for density and accepted bythe Engineer, before the next layer is placed Each layer shall be placed in amanner that ensures a uniform density
Water shall be added or removed as necessary in order to obtain the requireddensity Removal of water shall be accomplished through aeration by ploughing,blading, disking, or other methods subject to the approval of the Engineer
Lower Embankment layers shall be compacted and shaped with a 4% cross fallfrom the centre of the Embankment to allow drainage of rainwater duringconstruction The cross fall shall be gradually reduced in the upper layers suchthat the required design cross fall is achieved below the pavement structure.Dumping and spreading and compaction areas shall be kept separate and nowork shall be permitted on completed layers until such time as compactioncomplies with the requirements of this Specification Section and the layer hasbeen approved by the Engineer
2.3.3 Compact embankment material.

For subgrade layer and general embankment layer
All layers will be compacted to a uniform moisture content of -3% to +1% ofthe optimum moisture content for the particular material being laid
For subgrade layer 30cm in thick will be divided to 02 layers thickness of 15
cm for each layer
For embankment layers below the subgrade layer
For embankment layers below the subgrade layer 50cm in thick will bedivided to 02 layers thickness of 25 cm for each layer
The following sequence will be used for undertaking embankment compaction:
First stage using steel wheel roller: 8t-10t
Second stage using vibration roller 14-25t
(The rolling number and time shall be determined after obtaining result of trial compaction).
The rolling is undertaken along the embankment, its procedure is from lowpoint forward high point, the next rolling trip shall overrun at least 1/3 previousrolling trip
For straight section, rolling shall be undertaken from both edges ofembankment forward the centerline For the super-elevation section, the rollingshall be undertaken from the small curve to large curve

The construction sequence of aggregate layer is as follows:
Use spreader spread aggregate
The sub-base aggregate 35cm layer divided to 02 layer 18cm and 17cm ofthickness for each layer
The sub-base aggregate 18cm layer divided to 01 layer 18cm of thicknessfor each layer
For the base layer with the thickness of 30 cm shall be divided into 02layers of 15 cm of thickness for each layer

Prior spreading of aggregate of next layer, the moisture of first layer shall
be checked and adjusted for creating the good contact of two layerswithout segregation

Density rolling:
o Rolling by Vib roller 25T Rolling Capacity is 85-90% of required capacity,rolling speed is < 2km/h for first 12-20 rolling times and 3km/h from fifthrolling time and avoiding broken aggregate Water content to be sprayed
of this rolling stage is 3-4 litter/m2
o The finishing of density rolling stage on time is very important, because iffinished sooner, so density of aggregate course may be not enough, iffinished late, so aggregate may be broken The density rolling may befinished when roller overrun on the sub base or base course surface and itwheels are not tripped on that surface
o The water will be lightly sprayed of aggregate course during rolling forkeeping moisture proper for rolling to density
o Rolling shall be undertaken from edge of road forward centerline for theroad section with cross fall and from down side to up side of road for theroad section with talus in one side The next rolling trip overrun previousrolling trip at least 25-30cm
o The density of aggregate course shall be 98MDD upon completion ofrolling The density of aggregate course shall be checked regularly bysand cone method during rolling
Finish rolling:
o Rolling by steel roller 8T-10T
