ASPHALT PAVING LEVEL 1 AND LEVEL 2 EXAM STUDY GUIDE AND PRACTICE EXAM 2024 2025 ACCURATE REAL EXAM QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED ANSWERS EXPERT VERIFIED FOR A GUARANTEED PASS LATEST UPDATE A full lot of super pave asphalt is what size 1 000 tons 1 000 to 2000 tons 2000 to 4000 tons 1 days production ANSW 2000 to 4000 tons Which is not typically used as an asphalt binder in fdot mix designs PG 52 28 PG 58 22 PG 62 22 PG 76 22 PMA PG 82 22 PMA ANSW PG 62 22 Who cuts the density cores used for verification testing The verification technician The contractor The independent verification testing technician None of the above ANSW The contractor A full lot is composed of 5 sublots and 4 cores per lot T F ANSW False What is the most important for consistent compaction of asphalt mix The mix is hotter in temperature The mix is colder in temperature The mix is uniform in temperature Temperature of the mix does not affect compaction ANSW The mix is uniform in temperature Referring to general stationing guidelines R1 would be than R2 Closer to centerline Closer to outside shoulder Closure to the inside shoulder Both A and C ANSW Both A and C While using the rolling straightedge if the needle goes in the red zone indicating an unacceptable high spot in the section you then ANSW Mark the pavement where the needle first goes into the red zone and place another mark where the needle leaves the red zone and continue For bridge approach slabs the 15 foot manual straightedge should be set so is on the bridge deck 1 inch Exactly 1 2 of the straightedge The entire straightedge None of the above ANSW 1 inch For the first transverse joint on a project place the on the new pavement while overlapping the transverse joint by one inch 4 foot level 15 foot manual straight edge Rolling straightedge All the above ANSW 15 foot manual straight edge When calibrating to check the low side of the rolling straight edge Place shims under the outer wheels Place the rolling straight edge on a surface that looks flat Place a 3 16 inch shin under each outside wheel the gauge should read zero on both sides of the gauge Place shims under the center wheel ANSW Place a 3 16 inch shin under each outside wheel the gauge should read zero on both sides of the gauge When calibrating to check the high side of the rolling straight edge Place shims under the outer wheels Place shims under the center wheel Place the rolling straight edge on a surface that looks flat Place a 3 16 inch shin under the center wheel The gauge should read zero on both sides of the gauge ANSW Place a 3 16 inch shim under the center wheel The gauge should read zero on both sides of the gauge What do you need to know when manually checking the cross slope The level length The lane width Height from the end of the level to pavement surface The diameter of the bubble in the level ANSW Level length and height from the end of level to pavement surface When paving 5 foot wide shoulders or open graded friction course FC 5 cores should be taken at the frequency of 1 per 100 feet 5 per lot 5 per sub lot 1 per 1000 feet None of the above ANSW None of the above Density cores for acceptance testing are not required for Mix less than 1 inch thick Shoulders less than 5 feet wide Acceleration and deceleration lanes less than 1000 feet in length Ramos less than 1000 feet ANSW All of the above If a core sample is needed just after paving then Coring can be done immediately Let the pavement be cool to the touch before coring Run extra water from the core rig while coring Wait until the pavement surface temperature has cooled below 160 degrees before coring ANSW Wait until the pavement surface temp has cooled below 160 degrees before coring Align the core barrel over the marked sampling location so that It is a slight angle to the pavement It is perpendicular to the truck bumper It is perpendicular to the pavement surface The top of the barrel is tilted slightly towards the truck ANSW It is perpendicular to the pavement surface How should asphalt cores be stored when transporting in hot weather Stacked on top of each other in a box for each project being sampled By standing them upright in a cool shady location By lying them flat in the back of a truck In the cab of a un air conditioned truck ANSW By standing them upright in a cool shady location Asphalt placed when the mix temperature is too low can cause which of the following problems Texture problems Density may not be achieved Ride or smoothness problems All the above ANSW All the above What is the most accepted way to take the temperature of the hot Mix asphalt in the truck Use an I fared temperature gun and take the readings over the side of the truck Test The middle third of the side of the truck Use a quick reading thermometer B and c ANSW B and c test and use What is the single load temperature tolerance of the mix in the truck 15 degrees Of the target mix temperature 25 degrees of the target mix temperature ANSW 25 degrees What is the master range tolerance for the temperature of the mix in a mix truck 15 degrees 30 degrees ANSW 30 degrees If a single load exceeds the established mix by 25 degrees but is within the master range the technician will monitor the temperature of every load until A The temperatures of five consecutive of 5 consecutive loads are all within 20 degrees of the target temperature b the average of any 5 consecutive loads are within 15 degrees of the target C any single reading must be within 25 degrees of the target D the average of 5 consecutive loads is within 25 degrees of target temperature ANSW B and c Given the target mix temperature of 290 degrees and the following truck temperatures 280 285 295 300 275 No action is required just document the results Reject the load exceeding the master range temperature target Check the next 5 loads to see if in tolerance and notify the plant ANSW No action is required What temperature is tack coat material corrected to for tack spread rate calculations 60 77 175 320 ANSW 60 Tack coats are required Betweeen successful lifts of asphalt base material On all structural course asphalt layers to constructing the next course None of the above Both A and B ANSW Both A and B The application rate for PG 52 28 tack is the same as for emulsion T F ANSW False A tack truck distributor tank reading of 20 15 translates to ANSW 20 inches 15 16s inches A temperature corrected quantity of tack to 60 degrees in gallons will be than the …
