The minimum 28 -day compressive strength for PCC shall be 3300 psi for shared use paths. <br />No vehicles, including construction equipment, shall be permitted to use the pavement <br />until it has reached its full design strength. No exception will be given to allow use of PCC <br />shared use paths prior to reaching design strength. <br />The minimum pavement thickness shall be determined by the pavement design analysis <br />but in no case shall be less than 7 inches. <br />All joints within shared use paths shall be saw cut. Transverse contraction joints shall be <br />spaced at relatively equal spacing between joints and shall be close to the same spacing <br />as the longitudinal joints so that the panels are relatively square. Spacing between <br />transverse joints shall not exceed 15 feet for PCC that is 7 inches or more in thickness. <br />The length to width ratio for any panel shall be at least 0.75 and shall not exceed 1.25. <br />Joint reinforcement is not required for shared use paths except as required by the <br />pavement design. <br />The minimum aggregate base thickness shall be determined by the pavement design <br />analyses but not less than 2 inches of compacted 3/4 inch -minus crushed rock shall be <br />placed before the concrete pavement is poured. <br />(See Appendix E for Shared use Path Standard Detail) <br />2.03 SIDEWALKS <br />Sidewalks shall provide an unobstructed, continuous and safe path for pedestrians and be <br />designed in accordance with the City's Design Standards and Guidelines for Streets, Sidewalks, <br />Bikeways, and Accessways (provided in Appendix E and on the internet at www.eugene- <br />or.gov), ADA requirements, the Standard Specifications and Drawings, and the following: <br />A. Access Ramps <br />Each access ramp and its associated wings, landing and other appurtenances shall be <br />included in the plans and shall comply with the 2011 Proposed Accessibility Guidelines for <br />Pedestrian Facilities in the Public Right -of -Way as published by the United States Access <br />Board (located on the internet at www.access-boardaa). All clear width measurement <br />shall be exclusive of the curb. <br />At new intersections, access ramps shall be constructed in the projection of all crosswalks <br />as defined by the Oregon Vehicle Code. Receiving ramps shall be constructed on the <br />opposing side of newly established intersections. A design exception, per Section 1.04, <br />may be authorized in retrofit situation where a crossing is impractical due to <br />Public Improvement Design Standards Manual, 2016 Page 2-6 <br />
