(d) TRANSVERSE EXPANSION JOITdTS: Transverse expansion joints shall, be placed at <br />intervals of from 280 feet to 600 feet in length. Dowel bars, as specified in <br />Item !~ (b) Construction Joints, above, shall be used but for the expansion joi~-~.t <br />shall be equipped ~rrith a neat fitting metal cag at one end. <br />The joint shall be constructed of a premolded bituminous material meetin; <br />t1:F .requirements of said State Highway Specifications Section T:i~10.01 having a <br />;rictn of 3/4 inches and shall be constructed in such a. manner that the finished <br />j~ ~irzi;s -.;r.1J. be perpendicular to the center line of the street and t.o the surfac_~e <br />of the pavr?nient. The premolded material shall be installed before the concrete <br />i~ placed and shall be held rigidly in position by any means acceptable to the <br />Engineer that brill conform to these requirements .

TiVTE~=F.AL CONCRETE CiTi'.B: Intebral concrete; curbs.slza.ll be constructed i_n accor~a•- <br />ance ti:ith the Standard Specifications for Concrete Curb but modified to meet t,~~ <br />dime:,sions as sho~.~rn on detail plans. <br />~Jhen the intebral curbs are constructed all transverse joints shill be <br />spaced the same a.s and shall be continuous lrrith the joints in the pave~~ent. Tn-• <br />t~gra.l curb shall be dropped L~. inches at all d.rive~~ray openings. <br />Concrete for inte~;ra.l curb shall be placed Z~rhen the concrete in the j~ t-r_~--• <br />went is still plastic and the concrete curb anct the concrete pavement sh`:11 La <br />firmly bonded together.
