PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project generally consists of performing rehabilitation of Camino Capistrano between Oso Road

calibrated.
The scope of work specified in the QAP is to consist of IAP on every type of materials test required for
the project, and is to include the following:
Proficiency testing of concrete coarse and fine aggregate material consisting of sieve analysis,
sand equivalent and cleanness values on samples collected from the batch plant (assumed one
concrete mix for cross gutter that has a compressive strength requirement above 2500 psi)
Other IAP are to consist of witness tests only for tests listed in Appendix D of the QAP:
