What condition warrants the establishment of a separate lot during pavement production?

The establishment of a separate lot during pavement production is warranted when pavement is placed on multiple resurfacing maps because this situation typically indicates that different sections of the pavement may be subject to varying conditions and specifications. Each map could represent a different treatment or application method that requires distinct quality assessments. By creating separate lots for each resurfacing map, the quality control process can more effectively address the specific requirements related to each section, ensuring better adherence to standards and specifications throughout the entire pavement project.

In this scenario, asphalt material availability, worker shift changes, and weather interruptions do not directly necessitate the creation of separate lots, as they are more related to logistical challenges rather than the need for distinct quality evaluations based on different pavement specifications.
