19-3.02D Pervious Backfill Material


Pervious backfill material must consist of one or any combination of the following materials:

1. Gravel

2. Crushed gravel

3. Crushed rock

4. Natural sand

5. Manufactured sand

The gradation for sacked pervious backfill material behind wall drain outlets must comply with the gradation specified for 1-1/2-by-3/4 inch primary aggregate in section 90-1.02C(4)(b).

A weep hole and geocomposite drain alternative must comply with section 68-7.


19-3.02E Slurry Cement Backfill


Slurry cement backfill must be a fluid workable mixture of aggregate, cement, and water.

The aggregate must be one of the following:

1. Commercial-quality concrete sand

2. Excavated or imported material in any combination, free of organic material and other deleterious substances and complying with the gradation requirements shown in the following table:

The cement must comply with section 90-1.02B(2) except testing is not required.

The water must be free from oils, salts, and other impurities that adversely affect the backfill.

Proportion slurry cement backfill by weight or volume. The backfill must contain at least 188 pounds of cement per cubic yard and enough water to produce a fluid workable mix that flows and can be pumped without segregation during placement.

Mix materials thoroughly by machine. Use a pugmill, rotary drum, or other authorized mixer. Mix until cement and water are thoroughly dispersed.

You may use slurry cement backfill as structure backfill for pipe culverts.

19-3.02F Culvert Beddings

19-3.02F(1) General


Culvert beddings must be shaped bedding, sand bedding, or soil cement bedding.

If more than 1 type of bedding is allowed, use the same bedding for the entire length of the culvert.


19-3.02F(2) Sand Beddings


Sand bedding must consist of sand:

1. Free of clay or organic material

2. Suitable for the purpose intended

3. Complying with the gradation requirements shown in the following table:

19-3.02F(3) Soil Cement Beddings


Material and mixing requirements for soil cement bedding must comply with the specifications for slurry cement backfill in section 19-3.02E except:

1. It must contain at least 282 pounds of cement per cubic yard

2. Aggregate must not be commercial-quality concrete sand

19-3.02G Controlled Low-Strength Material


If authorized, controlled low-strength material may be used as structure backfill for pipe culverts unless the culvert has a diameter or span of more than 20 feet.

Controlled low-strength material must be a fluid workable mixture of aggregate, cement, and water.

Cement must be one of the following:

1. Cement complying with ASTM C150

2. Blended hydraulic cement complying with either of the following:

2.1. ASTM C595

2.2. Physical requirements in ASTM C1157
When tested under ASTM D4832, the controlled low-strength material must have a 28-day compressive strength:

1. From 50 to 100 psi for pipe culverts with 20 feet or less in height of cover

2. Of at least 100 psi for pipe culverts with over 20 feet in height of cover
Water must be free of oil, salts, and other impurities that adversely affect the backfill.

Aggregate must be one of the following:
