Summary of Example Specifications

<p><p><h2>Summary of Example Specifications</h2>One of the reviewed specifications has been selected for inclusion in this document. This document is representative of a typical RIC specification but should be tailored for project site conditions and adjusted to include appropriate and relevant details found in the <em>Design Guidance</em> and <em>QC/QA Procedures</em> documents.</p><p><div class="grayed-title subsection"><strong>Specification Name/Number:</strong> GeoStructures Example RIC Specification</div><strong>Reference(s):<br></strong><em>Personal Communication, O’Malley (2010)</em></p><p>This specification is a performance specification authored by an RIC specialty contractor. This specification provides general information on items such as contractor qualifications, contractor submittals, construction requirements, QC/QA requirements, measurement, and payment. This specification, however, omits vital information pertaining to design requirements and other items necessary for construction.<br>The language of the specification is sufficiently clear for all parties involved with the RIC project. This specification, however, is written with the objective of specifying RIC for a private building developer and not for a state agency with a transportation related project. In this specification’s current state, improvements may need to be made for it to be successfully utilized in specifying RIC for a transportation project.<br></p></p>
