Lot Information
Lot 1 - Coring and Testing to determine Coal Tar Content (Two Stage)
This Lot will cover the sampling and testing of bituminous road pavement materials (generally by extracted road pavement core) to determine if coal tar is present within the layers of the road pavement. The procedure will include for an initial test (generally using the PAK marker paint method) to determine the presence of coal tar and, if coal tar is indicated, laboratory analysis to determine and confirm if coal tar is present and, if so, the amount of coal tar present (Stage 2).
Options: The Framework is divided into lots. The Works identified within each lot are intended to provide a guide as to the type of work which may be instructed under each lot, not to limit the work identified.
Renewal: The Framework Agreement duration is 2 years with the option to extend annually for a further 2 years.
Lot 2 - Lot 2a - Sampling and Testing of Construction Materials and Lot 2b - Sampling and Testing of Bituminous MaterialsThis Lot will primarily encompass the sampling, testing and analysis of a variety of road construction materials including, but not limited to, the following: Unbound stone/aggregate materials; Cementitious materials bituminous pavement materials including surface dressing; bituminous pavement characteristics (e.g. skid resistance, texture depth, surface regularity and strength)
Options: The Framework is divided into lots. The Works identified within each lot are intended to provide a guide as to the type of work which may be instructed under each lot, not to limit the work identified.
Renewal: The Framework duration is 2 years with the option to extend annually for a further 2 years.

Extraction of soil samples using hand auger techniques. Ground Penetrating Radar survey to identify changes in ground conditions and voids.
Options: The Framework is divided into lots. The Works identified within each lot are intended to provide a guide as to the type of work which may be instructed under each lot, not to limit the work identified.
