| dc.description.abstract | Guide specifications for fill materials are used in the preparation of the earthwork sections of specifications for individual projects. This report discusses the agencies that produce guide specifications for fill materials and the specific material characteristics that these specifications stipulate. A database of requirements for fill materials taken from 27 sources was compiled for this report. Data from this database were sorted and plotted and conclusions were drawn regarding the material characteristics stipulated by this set of specifications. Recommendations for writing guide specification are presented | en_US |
