These questions are in the practice set above. Answer them there to see the correct option and the explanation for each.

• On a footway job the supervisor finds two products on the lorry that are laid without heating: bags of ready-to-use surfacing sold for permanent repairs, and a heap of slow-curing macadam meant for a temporary patch on another street. Before either is laid, the supervisor wants the provision that says what approval or recipe such products need, how they are to be kept and handled, and where each may go. Which provision covers this?
• For the HRA binder course of a trench across a busy road, the laboratory sheet gives each specimen's maximum and bulk densities and a percentage worked from them. The gang says the result passes because it is inside the footway figure. Which provision should the supervisor check to see which figure that layer is held to?
• The authority's inspector means to check how well a large hot-lay patch was compacted, and tells the supervisor that two small cylinders drilled out close beside the stop-valve box set in it, where the surface is easiest to reach, will settle the matter. Which provision should the supervisor hold that plan against?
