On the mastic what formula did you use to figure the pounds of material?  Also what width do you want to see on the crack?  Do you know how thick the cracks are on average?
Answer
Submitted: Monday    02-APR-2018 11:35 AM
0.5 lb/foot crack was used based on previous project experience with similar cracks.
Use the appropriate shoe to provide a level surface across the crack.
The thickness of the cracks depends on the time of the year.
An addenda will be issued to correct the quantity for Crack Filling.

If so, would the time extension remain consistent with the time required to obtain a MT DEQ Open Cut Mining permit, allowing the Contractor a reasonable amount of contract time to complete the work?
