B. Thermoplastic Traffic Stripes and Markings <br /> <br />1. Thermoplastic pavement markings, including stripes, pavement messages, <br />stop bars, directional arrows, reflective pavement markers and other <br />miscellaneous items, will be replaced as existed before the repair was <br />made. <br /> <br />a. The thermoplastic compound shall be as specified in Section 711 of the <br />Florida Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road <br />and Bridge Construction. <br /> <br />b. The thermoplastic compound shall be extruded or sprayed onto the <br />pavement surface in a molten state by mechanical means, with surface <br />application of glass spheres; when required, and upon cooling to ambient <br />pavement temperature shall produce an adherent pavement marking of <br />specified thickness and width and capable of resisting deformation. <br /> <br />2. The colors of the compound shall be white or yellow as existed before the <br />repair. <br /> <br />3. Reflective Pavement Markers and their installation shall conform to the <br />D.O.T. Specifications, Section 706. <br /> <br />4. Where thermoplastic is to be applied to cement concrete pavement, a <br />sealing primer as specified in D.O.T. Specifications, Sections 711-2.2, shall <br />be applied in advance of the placing of the stripes. <br /> <br />5. The thermoplastic shall be applied to the pavement utilizing extrusion or <br />spray application equipment. <br /> <br />a. The application equipment shall be so constructed as to provide <br />continuous mixing and agitation of the material. <br /> <br />b. Conveying parts of the equipment between the main material reservoir <br />and the shaping die or gun shall be so constructed as to prevent <br />accumulation and clogging. <br /> <br />c. The equipment shall be constructed so that mixing and conveying parts <br />up to and including the shaping die or gun, maintain the material at the <br />plastic temperature with heat transfer oil or electrical element control led <br />heat. <br />d. Direct fire heat transfer will not be allowed. <br /> <br />6. The application equipment shall be so constructed as to insure continuous <br />uniformity in the dimensions of the stripe. <br /> <br />a. The applicator shall provide a means for cIeanIy cutting of square stripe <br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach <br />NE 174th Street Roadway Improvements <br />02743 - 11 Bituminous Concrete Pavement <br />14-1758 / 09-19-2014 <br />
