Talk:106.4 Plant Inspections
I recommend modifying the first sentence in EPG 106.4.2.6 to allow for the Contractor/Supplier to calibrate the equipment.
- "106.4.2.6 Bituminous distributors. The calibration of all distributors will be approved by the engineer prior to use."
The distributor needs to be calibrated but not necessarily by us. As with the plants, the contractor should have the calibration performed and have it available for our inspection.
Keith L. Smith: Thanks for bringing this up. After obtaining confirmation from CM, the guidance was updated to allow the contractor/supplier to calibrate equipment.
