that all particles shall pass 12.5 mm (1/2 inch) sieve.

ITEM 605 - ROAD SIGN

601.3.2 Cement Concrete Sidewalk

605.1

Excavation shall be as specified above. The bed course material

shall be placed in accordance with the Item 200, Aggregate Subbase
Course.

This item shall consist of furnishing and installing road signs in

accordance with the Specification and to the details shown on the
Plans, or as required by the Engineer.

All forms shall be staked securely in position at the correct line and
level. Performed joint filler shall be set in position shown on the Plans

The road sign shall comply in all respects with the DPWH Highway
Safety Design Standards Part 2: Road Signs and Pavement Marking
Manual (February 2004) published by the DPWH. The categories of
road signs are designated in the Manual, namely, danger warnings,
regulatory signs and informative signs, or guide signs. These are
reffered to in the Contract as warnings signs and informatory signs,
respectively.
