Amendment to DPWH Standard Specification for
ITEM 607(3) - INTERNALLY ILLUMINATED (SOLAR) PAVEMENT LEVELLED
MARKERS/STUDS FLUSH TYPE
607(3).1 Description
This Item shall consist of furnishing and installing internally illuminated (solar) pavement
levelled markers/studs on the surface of the pavement in accordance with this Specification
and at the lines and locations shown on the Plans.
The internally illuminated (solar) pavement levelled markers/studs shall be either mono-
directional or uni-directional, bi-directional or omni-directional.
The reinforced body case shall be made of aluminum die cast with adequate webbing to
ensure a firm key to the road when installed. The protective upper cup or security ring shall
be made of aluminum die cast with a minimum of five (5) stainless steel safety locks.
The internal circuit module shall be detachable from the reinforced body case for easy
maintenance and shall be made of impact and abrasion resistant polycarbonate material which
is tightly sealed with its body having an Ingress Protection (IP) 68 rating (dust and water
resistant) based from IEC 60529, Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code).
The internally illuminated (solar) pavement levelled markers/studs shall conform to the
applicable requirements of EN 55015, Limits and Methods of Measurement of Radio
Disturbance Characteristics of Electrical Lighting and Similar Equipment, and EN 61547,
Equipment for General Lighting Purposes - EMC Immunity Requirements. The certified true
copy of the said test results shall be issued by the manufacturer to the Contractor reiterating
the current date of certification and must be submitted to the Engineer before doing the
installation work.
The solar cell and the rechargeable battery shall be of the latest technology and shall be able
to last for at least 3 days of LED runtime with a 12 hour per day discharge criteria on one (1)
full charge. The light-emitting diode (LED) shall have luminous intensity varying depending on
the color (yellow, white, red, green, and blue). For yellow and white, the minimum luminous
intensity values expressed in millicandela (mcd) is shown in Table 607(3).1. The LED shall
have an output frequency of either steady or flashing.
All LEDs should be covered with polycarbonate covers on the sides. Mono-directional or Uni-
directional Internally Illuminated (Solar) pavement levelled markers/studs shall either have
three (3) LED or a minimum of one (1) LED on one (1) tapering side. Bi-directional internally
illuminated (solar) pavement leveled markers/studs shall have a minimum of two (2) LEDs on
one (1) tapering side. Omni-directional internally illuminated (solar) pavement leveled
markers/studs shall have a minimum of three (3) LEDS on one tapering side and a minimum
of two (2) on two (2) opposite tapering sides.
607(3).2.2 Adhesive
Any approved two-part epoxy adhesive shall be used in the installation of the internally
illuminated (solar) pavement levelled markers/studs.
The markers/studs shall be jnstalled into the pavement in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions but shall also comply with the specified requirements.
Holes in the pavement shall be true to size of the marker/stud and shall be cleanly cut using
appropriate coring equipment. Holes shall be clean and free from all dirt, dust, oil, grease,
laitance, or any other materials, which would prevent bonding, prior to application of adhesive.
No adhesive shall be applied when the weather is foggy or rainy.
Placing and positioning of the marker/stud shall be by means of rubber mallet until the top
surface is flushed with the pavement and with the main directional LED light parallel to the
centerline of the road. Excess adhesive displaced during the placing and positioning of the
markers/studs shall be wiped clean and no adhesive shall be left exposed on the surface of
the pavement.
Traffic shall be kept off the newly installed markers/studs for a period of at least 2 hours or
until such time that the adhesive has sufficiently cured as determined by the Engineer.

The Contractor shall obtain from the manufacturer a one-year warranty for satisfactory field
performance including stipulated luminous intensity of the LED and battery back-up capacity
and submit the same to the Engineer.
