The longitudinal profile shall be checked using a 3 meter long straight edge and graduated wedge at
the middle of each traffic lane along a line parallel to the Centre line of the road. The transverse profile
shall be checked with adjustable template at intervals of 10 meters. For base with stone aggregate of

16.7.13 Rectification of Defective Construction

Where the surface irregularity of the W.B.M. sub-base course exceeds the tolerances specified in
Table 16.14 or where the course is otherwise defective due to sub grade soil mixing with the aggregates,
the layer to its full thickness shall be scarified over the affected area, reshaped with added material or
removal and replaced with fresh materials as applicable, and recompacted. The area treated in the
aforesaid manner shall not be less than 10 sqm. In no case shall depressions be filled up with
screenings and binding materials.

16.7.14 Meaurements
The length and breadth shall be measured to the nearest centimetre. The depth of consolidated layer
shall be computed to nearest half centimetre by taking average of depths at the centre and at 30 cm
from the left and right edges at a cross section taken at 100 metre interval or less as decided by the
Engineer-in-Charge by making small pits. The consolidated cubical contents shall be calculated in cubic
metres correct to two places of decimal. The cubical contents shall be compared with net quantity of
