5. Construction Confirm primed base on shoulder approved for surfacing Ensure traffic control measures in position and correct Check survey, setting out, demarcate are to be sealed Clean and prepare area to remove all loose material or dust before first application of seal.

Dip distributor, record quantity and temperature of binder in vehicle Position binder distributor, chip spreaders, roller Distributor sprays closely followed by chip spreader pneumatic roller other chipping vehicles on first seal. Check application of MC3000 sprayed by dipping binder distributor, record quantity and application rate. When chipping vehicles and roller have completed the chipping and rolling, proceed with the following section to be sealed.
