(b)
Stabilized base. Generally one design per subdivision will be made unless the soil varies so much that one design is not practical or that one of the materials used as a stabilizer is changed. This design shall be submitted for approval prior to construction of the base. (See § 220-3.23C.)
(c)
Asphaltic concrete paving. One core from the
