Use chutes or tremies for placing concrete where a drop of more than 72 inches is required.</p><p>D. Placing Concrete in Forms:</p><p>1. Deposit concrete in forms in horizontal layers not deeper than 24 inches, and to avoid inclined construction joints.</p><p>2. Where placement consists of several layers, place each layer while preceding layer is still plastic and to avoid cold joints.</p><p>3. Remove temporary spreaders in forms when concrete placing has reached the elevation of such spreaders.</p><p>4. Do not place concrete in supporting elements until the concrete previously placed in columns and walls is no longer plastic. Page 22 of 46 E. Placing Concrete Footings:</p><p>1. Deposit and consolidate concrete slabs in a continuous operation, within the limits of construction joints, until the placing of a panel or section is completed.</p><p>2. Consolidate concrete during placement by use of the specified equipment, thoroughly working concrete around the reinforcement and into corners.</p><p>3. Bring slab surfaces to the correct level with a straight edge, and then strike off.</p><p>4. Use bullfloats or darbies to smooth the surface, leaving it free from bumps and hollows.</p><p>5. Cold weather placing: Comply with ACI 306 to protect all concrete work from physical damage and reduced strength which would be caused by frost, freezing actions, or low temperatures.</p><p>F. Hot weather placing:</p><p>1. When hot weather conditions exist which would seriously impair the quality and strength of concrete, place the concrete as follows:</p><p>2. Maintain concrete temperature at time of placement below 90 degrees F. Use chilled mixing water or chopped ice to control concrete temperature, provided the water equivalent of the ice is calculated to the total amount of water.</p><p>3. Cover reinforcing steel with water-soaked burlap if the steel becomes too hot. Steel temperature shall not exceed the ambient air temperature immediately prior to placement of concrete.</p><p>4. Wet forms thoroughly prior to placement of concrete.</p><p>5. Use set-control admixtures in the mix.</p><p>G. General</p><p>1. Consolidate all concrete in accordance with provisions of ACI 309.</p><p>2. Consolidate each layer of concrete immediately after placing, by use of internal concrete vibrators supplemented by hand-spading, rodding, or tamping.</p><p>3. Do not use vibrators to transport concrete inside the forms.</p><p>4. During all phases of operation, maintain a frequency of not less than 10,000 vibrations per minute per internal vibrator.</p><p>5. Do not vibrate forms or reinforcement.</p><p>H. Equipment Page 23 of 46 1. Provide adequate number of units and power source at all times. Maintain spare units on hand to ensure adequacy.</p><p>I. Procedures</p><p>1. Limit duration of vibration to time necessary to produce satisfactory consolidation without causing segregation of aggregates.</p><p>2. Insert the vibrator so as to penetrate the lift immediately below the one being placed, and manipulate to blend the two lifts.</p><p>3. Do not insert the vibrator into lower courses which have begun to set.</p><p>4. Use the vibrator to melt down the concrete as it is being placed, and use the vibrator to consolidate the mass of concrete.</p><p>5. In the case of wall construction, assign at least one vibrator and vibrator-operator to melting down the mix; and assign at least one other vibrator and vibrator-operator to consolidating the mass of concrete.</p><p>6. Under no circumstances shall the points of insertion during the consolidation phase be more than 18 inches apart.</p><p>3.04 JOINTS</p><p>A. Construction Joints:</p><p>1. Horizontal construction joints will not be permitted except as may be shown on the Drawings.</p><p>2. Provide keyways, sized per plans, in all construction joints in wall, slabs, and between footings and walls.</p><p>3.05 CONCRETE FINISHING</p><p>A. Finish of formed surfaces:</p><p>1.

Standard rough form finish shall be the concrete surface having the texture imparted by the form facing material used, with tie holes and defective areas repaired and patched, and all fins and other projects exceeding one-quarter inch in height rubbed down or chipped off.</p><p>2. Smooth form finish: Page 24 of 46 a. Provide as-cast smooth form finish for formed concrete surfaces that are to be exposed to view. Grind and patch all surfaces so that no hole or fin is greater than 1/8 inch. Rub smooth with cement mortar mix and leave surface void of sand particles. Do not brush on mortar mix; use burlap for final cleaning. All grinding and finishing shall be carried twelve inches (12") below the ground surface. b. Produce smooth form finish by selecting form material to impart a smooth, hard, uniform texture and arranging them orderly and symmetrically with a minimum of seams. c. Repair and patch defective areas with all fins and other projections completely removed and smoothed. d. Related Unformed Surfaces: At tops of walls, horizontal offsets, and similar unformed surfaces occurring adjacent to formed surfaces, strike off smooth and finish with a smooth troweled finish.</p><p>4. Trowel Finish: a. Apply trowel finish to top surfaces of curbs that are to be exposed to view, unless otherwise shown. b. Grind smooth those surface defects which have been damaged during removal of forms.</p><p>5. Broom Finish: a. Apply light broom finish to all curbs and gutters, sidewalks and driveway aprons. b. Curing compound shall be used on all exposed surfaces and shall be applied immediately after broom finish has been applied. Apply in accordance with the IDOT SSRBC, including weather and calendar limitations. c. If concrete is poured outside the period permitted for curing compound, use wet curing methods (burlap and visqueen) and prevent from freezing, during curing period.</p><p>3.06 DAMAGED OR DEFECTIVE CONCRETE </p><p>A. Damaged or defective concrete resulting from the Contractor's operation at any time before completion and acceptance of the work shall be removed and replaced by the Contractor with acceptable concrete at no cost to the Owner.

Two (2) coats of white curing compound shall be applied to all concrete work as soon as the finish is complete, within one (1) hour of final striking, subject to IDOT seasonal limitations. During the colder portion of the year, use wet curing methods as per IDOT specifications.</p><p>E. In situations where curb is to be added adjacent to an existing asphalt surface, sawcut the existing asphalt surface at least 2 feet from the proposed edge of concrete, and remove the asphalt and stone base sufficiently to provide adequate working room to form the curb or curb and gutter. Protect the sawcut edge. If damaged, or if material below the surface is undermined, recut in a long straight line further back. After a minimum 7 day cure, if test cylinders indicate at least 3500 psi strength, backfill behind curb and then place and compact a stone (CA6) base followed by the asphalt surface mix to a depth of 4 inches to refill the space between the curb and the sawcut edge. Compact to 93% density forming a smooth surface flush with the existing surface. If not overlaid, the complete parking lot surface shall be seal coated and restriped.</p><p>In situations where a new curbline is construed along an existing road, replace the road pavement in kind, but with a minimum of 4 inches of CA6, 6 inches of BAM and 4 inches of Class I Surface Mix.</p><p>F.
