==Procedures==
 
−
1. Deck should be thoroughly sounded out and deck repairs made.
 
−
 
−
2. Deck should be cleaned, flushed, and dry prior to sealing.
 
−
 
−
3. Cover expansion devices or other features that are not to be sealed over.
 
−
 
−
4. Chip seals are to extend a minimum of 30 ft. beyond each bridge end.
 
−
 
−
5. Apply liquid asphalt at a rate of 0.3 to 0.5 gal./yd<sup>2</sup> depending on size of cover aggregate and slope of bridge deck.
 
−
 
−
6. Spread 25 to 30 lbs. of cover aggregate per yd<sup>2</sup> immediately following application of liquid asphalt and roll as soon as possible. Adequate cover aggregate must be applied to prevent tracking. Cover aggregate shall not be placed within 2 ft. of curb.
 
−
 
−
7. Lightly broom excess chips after seal is properly cured (when chips are securely held), then open lane to traffic.
 
−
 
−
8. Repeat for adjacent lanes.
 
  
−
9. Return two to three days later to again thoroughly sweep bridge deck to remove loose aggregate. Remove aggregate on lower chords and substructure caps.
