shall be interpreted and construed by the OWner, and
his decision shall be final and binding upon all
parties.
It is understood and agreed that the passing, approval,
and/or acceptance of any part of the work or material

replace, restore, and/or make to comply strictly and in
all things with the Contract and Specifications any and

equipment normally expected to deteriorate or wear out
and become subject to normal repair and replacement
before their condition is discovered. Failure on the
part of the Contractor and/or his Surety, immediately
after Notice to either, to repair or replace any such
defective materials and workmanship shall entitle the
OWner, if it sees fit, to replace or repair the same
and recover the reasonable cost of such replacement
and/or repair from the Contractor and/or his surety,
who shall in any event be jointly and severally liable
to the OWner for all damage, loss, and expense caused

INTENT AND CORRELATION OF DOCUMENTS
The Contract Documents cover, with explicit provisions,
all matters relating to the work which the Contract
undertakes to construct or perform in full compliance
with such provisions. It is understood that the Con-
tractor has, by personal examination and inquiry,
satisfied himself as to all local conditions and as to
the meaning, requirements and reservations of the
Contract Documents, for, after the award, no deviation
will be allowed from the Owner interpretation thereof.
29
*
The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all
labor, materials, supplies, appliances, equipment and
other incidentals necessary or convenient to the suc-
cessful completion of the work and the carrying out of
all duties and obligations imposed by the Contract
Documents. The Contractor shall, in addition, provide
all work and materials not shown in detail but necessary
for completion of the project as indicated or specified,
including a proper and suitable foundation preparation,
base or support and a reasonable finish consistent with
adjacent work which is shown or specified. The Contrac-
tor shall make plural and complete all work which, to
avoid needless repetition or for the sake of brevity,
has been shown singly or partially indicated. The
Contractor shall follow the Drawings and execute all
work in strict accordance therewith and with the kind
and quality of materials indicated and specified.
Materials or work described in works which, when so
applied, have a well-known technical or trade meaning
shall be held to refer to such recognized standards.
Any deviation from the Drawings and Specifications,
which may be required by the exigencies of construction,
shall in all cases conform to written instructions of
the Owner. The applicable provi sions of the Contract
Documents shall apply with equal force to all work,
including extra work, performed under this contract,
whether performed either directly by the Contractor of
by any Subcontractor.
B. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is
called for by any, shall be as binding as if called for
by all. The Contractor shall carefully study and
compare all Drawings, specifications and other instruc-
tions; shall test all figures on the drawings before
laying out the work; shall notify the Owner of all
errors, inconsistencies, or omissions which he may
discover; and obtain specific instructions before
proceeding with the work. The Contractor shall not take
advantage of any apparent error or omissions which he
may be found in the Drawings or Specifications, but the
Owner shall be entitled to make such corrections therein
and interpretations thereof as he may deem necessary for
the fulfillment of their intent. The Contractor shall
be responsible for all errors in construction which
could have been avoided by such examination and notifi-
cation and shall correct at his own expense all work
improperly constructed through failure to notify the
Owner and request specific instructions. In the event
of inconsistencies in the requirements of the Drawings
and Specifications, the more expensive and/or stringent
will be required, and in case of conflict between the
Drawings and Specifications, shall take precedence over
the Drawings. Special Conditions and General Condi-
tions. The Special Conditions shall take precedence
30

over General Conditions, and the Specifications shall
take precedence over Special Conditions- and General
Conditions. The captions or subtitles of the several
Articles and Divisions of these Contract Documents
cor .ti tute no part of the context thereof, but are any
labels to assist in locating and reading the provisions
hereof.
Full size details shall take precedence over scale
drawings and large scale drawings shall take precedence
over shall scale drawings. Dimensions given in figures
shall take precedence over scaled dimensions.
When measurements are affected by conditions already
established or where items are to be fitted into con-
structed conditions, it shall be the Contractor's
responsibility to verify all such dimensions at the site
and the actual job dimensions shall take precedence over
scale and figure dimensions on the Drawings.
Whenever a stock size manufactured item or piece of
equipment is specified by its nominal size, it shall be
the responsibility of the Contractor to determine the
actual space requirements for setting and for entrance
to the setting space to make all necessary allowances
and adjustments therefor in his work without additional
cost to the Owner.
Standard specifications or other specifications of the
organizations, societies or bodies referred to herein or
to specifications listed therein, shall be to their
current editions and whenever it is stated in the
Specifications that materials or work shall conform to
the requirements of any of these specifications, work
and/or material shall also conform to any other specifi-
cation referred to herein.
NOTICE AND SERVICE
A. All notices, demands, requests, instructions, approvals
and claims shall be in writing.

the charges prepaid to any telegraph company for trans-
mi ssion, in each case addressed to such offioe (or to
such other representative of the Owner or to such other

to the Contractor for such purpose).
Any such notice or demand shall be deemed to have been
given or made as of the time of actual delivery, or, in
the case of mailing, when the same should have been
recei ved in due course of posts, or in the case of
telegrams, at the time of actual receipt thereof.
COPIES FURNISHED
The Contractor will be supplied with five copies of the
Drawings and Specifications. One complete set shall be
kept on the job by the Contractor and shall be accessi-
ble at all times.
SHOP DRAWINGS

the Contractor at a rate of $50 per hour.
The Owner shall review shop drawings for general design
and arrangement with reasonable promptness, making
desired corrections. The Owner approval of such draw-
ings or schedules will not include verification of
dimensions or quantities, nor shall it relieve the
Contractor from responsibility for deviations from
drawings and/or specifications unless he has, in writ-
ing, called the Owner's attention to such deviations at
the time of submission; not shall it relieve him from
responsibility of errors of any sort in shop drawings or
schedules or proper correlation with other work. The
Contractor shall make any corrections required by the
Owner and file with him the specified number of correct-
ed copies.
OWNERSHIP OF DRAWINGS
All Specifications, Drawings, other contract documents
and copies thereof furnished by the Owner shall remain
his property. They shall not be used on another project
unless such use is authorized by the Owner and, with the
exception of those sets which have been signed in
connection with the execution of the Agreement, shall be
returned to him upon completion of the project.
SAMPLES
The Contractor shall furnish to the Owner for approval
all samples of materials as directed. The work shall
then be in accordance with approved samples.
MATERIALS, APPLIANCES, EMPLOYEES
Unless otherwi se stipulated, the Contractor shall
provide and pay for all materials, supplies, labor,
water, tools, equipment, light, power, transportation
and other facilities necessary for expeditious execution
and completion of the work in an acceptable manner.
Unless otherwise definitely specified, it is a general
requirement of the specifications that all materials and
workmanship shall meet the requirements of the applica-
ble standard specifications of the American Society for
Testing and Materials or of the Federal Standardization
Documents as minimum requirements.
33
B. The Contractor shall at all times enforce strict disci-
pline and good order among his employees, and shall not
employ on the work any unfit person or anyone not
skilled in the work assigned to him. Mechanics whose
work is unsatisfactory to the Owner or who are consid-
ered by the Owner as careless, incompetent, unskilled or
disorderly, who use threatening or abusive laaguage to
any person having supervision of the work, or who are
otherwise objectionable shall be dismissed from the work
upon notice from the Owner and shall not be employed on
the work thereafter. No intoxicating substance shall be
allowed on the work.
C. All labor described in these specifications or indicated
on the drawings and the work specified or indicated,
shall be executed in a thoroughly substantial and
workmanlike manner and by mechanics skilled in the
applicable trade. All materials, fixtures and apparatus
shall be installed in an undamaged condition.
D. Except as otherwise specified, all materials, fixtures
and apparatus shall be new and of good quality and shall
be delivered to the site of the work in an undamaged
condi tion. The Contractor shall, if required, furnish
satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of
materials.
E. Whenever materials are sold by the manufacturer in
sealed packages, they shall be so delivered on the job.
F. The Contractor shall make written request to the Owner

shall be as provided for changes in the work.
I. Whenever materials or equipment are specified or de-
scribed in the Contract Documents by using the name of a
proprietary item or the name of a particular supplier
with the addition of such expressions as "or equal"
or "approved equal" , the naming of the item is intended
to establish the type, function and quality required.
When "or equal" or "approved equal" is used, materials
34
or equipment of other suppliers may be accepted by the
Owner if sufficient information is submit~ed to deter-
mine that the material or equipment proposed is equiva-
lent or equal to that named. The procedure for review
by -che Owner will include the following as may be
supplemented in the Specifications. Request for review
of substitute items of material and equipment will not
be accepted by the Owner from anyone other -than the
Contractor. If the Contractor shall make written
application to the Owner for acceptance thereof, certi-
fying that the proposed substitute will perform ade-
quately the functions and achieve the results called for
by the general design, be similar and of equal substance
to that specified and be suited to the same used as that
specified. The application will state that the evalua-
tion and acceptance for the proposed substitute will not
prejudice the Contractor's achievement of Contract
completion on time, whether or not acceptance of the
substitute for use in the work will require a change in
any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of
any other direct contract with the Owner for work on the
Project) to adapt the design to the proposed substitute
and whether or not incorporation or use of the substi-
tute in connection of the proposed substitute from that
specified will be identified in the application and
available maintenance repair and replacement service
will be indicated. The application will also contain an
itemized estimate of all costs that will result directly
or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute,
including costs of redesign and claims of other contrac-
tors affected by the resulting change, all of which
shall be considered by the Owner in evaluating the
proposed substitute. The Owner may require the Contrac-
tor to furnish at the Contractor's expensed additional
data about the proposed substitute.
J. The Owner will be allowed a reasonable time within which
to evaluate each proposed substitute~ The Owner will be
the sole judge of acceptability, and no substitute will
be ordered, installed or utilized without the Owner
prior wri tten acceptance which will be evidenced by
either a Change Order o~ an approved Shop Drawing. It
is distinctly understood that, (1) the Owner is to use
hi s own judgement in determining whether or not any
article, material or item proposed to the substituted is
the equal of any article, material or item so specified;
(2) the decision for the Owner on all such questions of
equality shall be final and binding upon the Contractor;
and (3 in event of any adverse decision made by the
Owner no claim of any sort by the Contractor shall be
made or allowed against the Owner. The Owner may
require the Contractor to furnish at the Contractor'
expense a special performance guarantee or other surety

tion against deterioration of any type. These materials
shall be so placed as to caused a minimum of inconve-
nience to other contractors on the work and to the
public. The storage piles shall be arranged to facili-
tate inspections, and any deterioration shall be grounds
for rejection. If material stored on the job and paid
for under the terms of the contract is damaged before
its incorporation in the work, the amounts paid the
Contractor for the damaged material shall be deducted
from the next estimate.

hour that such special machinery or equipment
is used on the extra work.
C. The compensation herein provided shall be received and
accepted by the Contractor as payment in full for all
extra work done.

Contractor and to his Surety of such delay, neglect or
defaul t, specifying the conditions pertaining thereto

tract, shall be deducted from any monies due or which

have been payable under the Contract, the contractor and
the Surety shall be liable and shall pay to the Owner
the amount of such excess.

8.
C. After receipt of a Notice of Termination, the Contractor
shall submit to the Owner his termination claim, in the
form and with the certification prescribed. Such claim
shall be submitted promptly, but in no event later than
one month from the effective date of termination unless
one or more extensions in writing are granted by the
Owner. No claim will be allowed for machinery and

Contractor to submit his termination claim wi thin the
time allowed, the Owner shall determine, on the basis of
information available to him, the amount, if any, due to
the Contractor by reason of the termination.
D. The Contractor and the Owner may agree upon the whole or
any part of the amount or amounts to be paid to the
Contractor by reason of the total or partial termination

the agreed amount. Nothing in this clause, prescribing
the amount to be paid to the Contractor in the event of
failure of the Contractor and the Owner to agree upon
the whole amount to be paid to. the Contractor by reason

available to him, with respect to all Contract work
performed prior to the effective date of the Notice of
48

items) of the cost of such work and a sum, as a profit,
equal to 2 percent of said cost of the work, which
represents the cost of articles or materials delivered

place on the effective date of the Notice of Termina-
tion, plus a sum equal to 8 percent of the remainder to
such amount, but the aggregate of such sums ,hall not
exceed 6 percent of the whole of the amount determined
above; provided, however, that if it appears that the
Contractor would have sustained a loss on the entire
Contract had it been completed, no profit shall be
included or allowed under this paragraph and an approxi-
mate adjustment shall be made reducing the amount of the
settlement to reflect the indicated rate of loss.
F. The total sum to be paid to the Contractor shall not
exceed the total Contract price, as reduced by the
amount of payments otherwise made and as further reduced
by the contract price of work not terminated. Except

loss, there shall be excluded from the amounts payable
to the Contractor the fair value as determined by the
Owner, of property which is destroyed, lost, stolen, or
damaged so as to become undeliverable to the Owner.

SUBCONTRACTORS
The Contractor may uti lize the services of specialty
subcontractors on those parts of the work which under
normal contracting practices are performed by such
specialty subcontractors.
The Contractor shall not award any work to any subcon-
tractor without prior written approval of the Owner.
The Contractor shall be as fully responsible to the
Owner for the acts and omissions of his subcontractors,
and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by
them, as he is for -the acts and omission of persons
directly employed by him. Nothing contained in the
Contract Documents shall create any contractual rela-
tions between any subcontractor and the Owner.
The Contractor shall cause appropriate provisions to be
inserted in all subcontracts relative to the work to
bind subcontractors to the Contractor by the terms of
the General Conditions, the Special Conditions and other
Contract Documents insofar as applicable to the work of
subcontractors, and to give the Contractor the same
power as regards terminating any subcontract that the
Owner may exercise over the Contractor under any provi-
sion of the Contract Documents.
SEPARATE CONTRACTS
The Owner reserves the right to let other contracts in
connection with this project. The Contractor shall
afford other contractors a reasonable opportunity for
the introduction and storage of their materials and the
execution of their work and shall properly connect and
coordinate his work with theirs.
If any part of the Contractor's work depends for proper
execution of results upon the work of any other contrac-
tor, the Contractor shall examine and promptly report to
the Owner any defects in such work that renders it
unsuitable for su~h proper execution and resul~s. His
failure to so inspect and report shall consti tute his
acceptance, at his own risk, of the other contractor's
work as fit and proper for the reception of this work,
except as to defects which may develop in the other
contractor's work after the execution of the work under
this Contract.

To insure the proper execution of his subsequent work,
the Contractor shall measure work already in place and
shall at once report to the Owner any discrepancy
between the executed work and the Drawings.
DISTRIBUTION OF WORK
The arrangement of the Specifications in sectiops, under
general titles descriptive of the principal materials or
trades covered, is for convenience. This subdivision
follows trade practice as far as seems practical without
unreasonably complicated or minute breakdown. Under
many divisions it has seemed proper to include items of
other trades or types of materials, the use or the
installation of which is closely related to the princi-
pal subject of that division. Such arrangement shall
not operate to make the Owner an arbitrator to establish
subcontract limits between Contractor and subcontractor.
The Contractor and all subcontractors shall study the
Drawings and Specifications in sufficient detail to
assure that all required items are included. It shall
be the General Contractor's responsibility to so arrange
and distribute the work that all required items are
provided by the proper trades and at the proper times,
without controversy as to contract obligation, or as to
jurisdiction, and he shall make all necessary adjust-
ments to this end.
NO WAIVER OF LEGAL RIGHTS
Observation by the owner or by any of his duly author-
ized representatives, any measurement or report by the
Owner, any order by the Owner for the payment of money,
any payment for or acceptance of any work or any exten-
sion of time or any possession taken by the Owner shall
not operate as a waiver of any provision of this Con-
tract, or any power therein preserved to the Owner, or
of any right to damages therein provided. Any waiver of
any breach of this Contract shall not be held to be a
waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
The Owner reserves the right to correct any error that
may be discovered in any estimate that may have been
paid, and to adjust the same to meet requirements of
this Contract. The Owner further reserves the right,
should proof of defective work on the part of the
Contractor be di scovered after the final payment has
been made, to claim and recover by process of law, such
sums as may be sufficient to correct the error, or make
good the defects in the work.
Any waiver of any provi sion of the Contract Documents
shall be specific, shall apply to the particular item or

provided in full payment for furnishing all materials,
labor, tools, equipment and transportation, and for
performing all work required to complete the work under
this Contract; and also in full payment for all loss or
damage arising from the nature for the work or from the
action of the elements, or from any unforeseen difficul-
ties which any be encountered during the prosecution of
the work until its final acceptance by the Owner.

expenses for labor, equipment, materials, commissions,
transportation charges and expenses, patent fees and

value of the work completed during the preceding month
and 90 percent of the value of materials not already
used, but which have been furnished by the Contractor
under the Specifications and satisfactorily stored on
the project site, provided that such materials have been
deli vered and inspected and that payment therefor has
been satisfactorily certified by the Contractor to the
Owner and provided further that the materials, are such
as probably will be incorporated in the work within the
next 30 days. The Contractor shall substantiate the
value of stored materials for which payment is requested
by submitting copies of suppliers' invoices for the
stored material. For the purpose of preparing a monthly
estimate for partial payment, the Contractor will make
an approximate estimate of the value of all work done
and materials furnished as of the last day of each
calendar month, and will deduct 10 percent thereof and
all previous payments and charges, and the balance will
be paid by the Owner to the Contractor on or about
thirty days after the submittal to the Owner. The Owner
shall review, revise and correct, if necessary, and then
52
approve the estimate for partial payment before it is
submitted to the Owner. The 10 percent whjch is deduct-
ed each month is reserved by the owner as a partial
guaranty to it of the faithful execution of this Con-
tr".;t. As a consideration of such payment of 90 per-
ce:. '1:, the Owner shall have the right to enter upon and
put into proper service any or all parts of the work
which may be in condition for use; however, such use
shall not be construed as the final acceptance and the
commencement of the one year guarantee bond period for
any or all parts of the work, unless final acceptance is
made for the complete project at that time. No claim or
charge is to be made by the Contractor of such use, nor
is such use to be construed as an acceptance by the
Owner of any part of the work so used.
B. Upon receipt of written notice from the Contractor that
the work has been completed in conformity with the
Drawings and Specifications and any approved changes
thereto, the Owner shall promptly examine the work and,
making such tests as he may deem proper and using all of
the care and judgement normally exercised in the exami-
nation of completed work, by a properly qualified and
experienced professional engineer.
C. The Owner will then make a final estimate of the value
of all work done and will deduct therefrom all previous
payments which have been made. After receipt and
acceptance of the properly executed Affidavit and the
Release of Lien and wi thin 60 days the amount of the
estimate, less any charges or damages herein provided
for, will be paid. Upon such final payment, the Owner
shall be released by the Contractor from all liability
whatever growing out of this Contract, except for the
balance, if any of such amount as may have been retained
to cover charges, claims or damages, as specified; and
if the Owner is satisfied that no such charges, claims
or damages exist or will arise, no such amount will be
retained. All prior estimates are subject to correction
in the final estimate.
D.
Each Request for a partial payment shall be submitted on
an Application for Payment Form shown on Page 55 which
shall be accompanied by an executed copy of the Certifi-
cation of Contractor shown on Page 56.

damaged property, the Owner may employ such labor and
equipment as he may deem necessary for the purpose and
the cost of such work, together with the cost of super-
vision, shall be charged to the Contractor, and shall be
deducted from any money due him on the monthly or final
estimate. No contract shall be considered as having
been completed until all rubbish and surplus materials
have been removed and properly disposed of.
RECOVERY RIGHTS SUBSEQUENT TO FINAL PAYMENT.
The Owner reserves the right, should an error be discov-
ered in the partial or final estimates, or proof of
defective work or materials used by or on the part of
the Contractor be discovered after the final payment has
been made, to claim and recover from the Contractor or
his Surety, or both, by process of law, such sums as may
be sufficient to correct the error or make good the
defects in the work and materials.
GENERAL GUARANTEE

3.02 APPLICATION
A. Placing:
1. General: Concrete shall be deposited continuously, or in layers of such
thickness (not exceeding 2-feet in depth) that no concrete will be deposited on
concrete that has hardened sufficiently to cause the formation of seams or
planes of weakness.
2. Supported Elements: At least two hours shall elapse after depositing concrete
in columns or walls before depositing in beams, girders, or slabs supported
thereon.
3. Segregation: Concrete shall be deposited as nearly as practicable in its final
position to avoid segregation due to rehandling or flowing. Concrete shall not
be subjected to procedure which will cause segregation.
B. Concrete Under Water:
1. General: Wherever practicable, all foundation excavations shall be dewatered
and the concrete deposited in the dry.
2. Method of Placing: Concrete deposited under water shall be carefully placed
in the space in which it is to remain, by means of a tremie, a closed-bottom
dump bucket of not less than one cubic yard capacity, or other approved
method, and shall not be disturbed after it is deposited. All concrete shall be
deposited in one continuous pour. No concrete shall be placed in running
water. All form work designed to retain concrete under water shall be
watertight, and the design of the form work and excavation sheeting shall be
by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Florida.
3. Use of Tremie: The tremie shall consist of a tube having a minimum inside
diameter of ten inches, and shall be constructed in sections having tight joints.
No aluminum parts which have contact with the concrete will be permitted.
The discharge end shall be entirely seated at all times and the tremie tube
kept full to the bottom of the hopper. When a batch is dumped into the hopper
the tremie shall be slightly raised (but not -out of the concrete at the bottom)
until the batch discharges to the bottom of the hopper, after which the flow
shall be stopped by lowering the tremie. The means of supporting the tremie
shall be such as to permit the free movement of the discharge end over the
entire top surface of the work, and shall permit it being lowered rapidly when
necessary to choke off or retard the flow. The flow shall preferably be
continuous and in no case shall be interrupted until the work is completed.
Special care shall be exercised to maintain still water at the point of deposit.
4. Use of Bottom-dump Bucket: When the concrete is placed by means of a
bottom-dump bucket, the bucket shall be lowered gradually and carefully until
it rests upon the concrete already placed. The bucket shall then be raised very
03300 - 5
04-017.20
slowly during the discharge travel; the intent being to maintain, as nearly as
possible, still water at the point of discharge and to avoid agitating the
mixture. Aluminum buckets will not be permitted.
C. Consolidating Concrete:
1. Gene ;al: Concrete shall be consolidated by means of internal vibrators
operated by competent workmen.
2. Vibrators: Vibrators shall have a minimum head diameter of at least 2-inches,

minimum centrifugal force of 300-pounds and a minimum frequency of 9,000
vibrations per second.
4. Spare Vibrator: One spare vibrator for each three in use shall be kept on the
site during all concrete placing operations.
5. Use of Vibrators: Vibrators shall be inserted and withdrawn at points
approximately 18-inches apart. The duration of each insertion shall be from 5
to 15 seconds. Concrete shall not be transported in the forms by means of
vibrators.
D. Protection: Rainwater shall not be allowed to increase the mixing water nor to
damage the surface finish. Concrete shall be protected from construction
overloads. Design loads shall not be applied until the specified strength has been
attained.
E. Construction Joints: Except as otherwise indicated on the Drawings, horizontal
construction joints shall be provided at top of foundation members and slabs on
grade and at the soffit of supported slabs and beams. Other horizontal and vertical
construction joints shall be located as indicated on the Drawings. Joints will not be
permitted except in the locations shown.
F~ Bonding: Before depositing new concrete on or against concrete that has set, the
surfaces of the set concrete shall be thoroughly cleaned so as to expose the coarse
aggregate and be free of laitance, coatings, foreign matter and loose particles.
Forms shall be retightened. The hardened concrete of joints shall be dampened, but
not satuated, and then thoroughly cover'ed with a coat of cement grout of similar
proportions to the mortar in the concrete. The grout shall be as thick as possible on
vertical surfaces and at least l/2-inch thick on horizontal surfaces. The fresh
concrete shall be placed before the grout has attained its initial set.
G. Embedded Items: In addition to steel reinforcement, pipes, inserts and other metal
objects as shown, specified or ordered shall be built into, set in or attached to the

indicated. They shall be thoroughly clean and free from paint or other coating, rust,
scale, oil, or any foreign matter. No wood shall be embedded in concrete. The
concrete shall be packed tightly around pipes and other met~l work to prevent
leakage and to secure perfect adhesion. Drains shall be adequately protected from
intrusion of concrete.
.
03300 - 6
04-017.20
H. Bonding To Existing Surfaces: Existing concrete surfaces that are to have new
concrete bonded thereto shall be cleaned of all grease, oil, dust, dirt and loose
particles and coated with a epoxy bonding agent just prior to placing of the new
concrete. Application of the bonding agent shall be as recommended by the
manufacturer and the agent shall be permitted to become tacky before the new
concrete is placed. The bonding agent shall not be permitted to overlap or be spilled
on the surfaces to be exposed after the work is completed.
1. Repair Of Surface Defects:
1. General: Surface defects, including tie holes shall be repaired immediately
after form removal. The area to be patched and an area at least 6-inches wide
surrounding it shall be dampened to prevent absorption of water from the
patching mortar.
2. Removal of Defective Concrete: All honeycombed and other defective
concrete shall be removed down to sound concrete. Edges shall be cut
perpendicular to the surface or slightly under cut.
3. Bonding Grout: Surfaces to be patched shall be thoroughly dampened and shall
receive a coat of bonding grout brushed into the surface. Grout shall consist
of one part cement to one part fine sand passing a No. 30 sieve. Grout shall be
consistency of thick cream.
4. Patching Mortar: The patching mortar shall be made of the same materials and
of approximately the same proportions used for the concrete except that the
coarse aggregate shall be omitted and the mortar shall consist of not more
than one part of cement to two and one-half parts sand by damp loose volume.
The quantity of mixing water shall be no more than necessary for handling and
placing. The patching mortar shall be mixed in advance and allowed to stand
with frequent manipulation with a trowel, without the addition of water, until
it has reached the stiffest consistency that will permit placing.
5. Placing Patching Mortar: After the bonding grout begins to lose its water
sheen, a premixed patching mortar shall be applied. Patching mortar shall be
thoroughly consolidated into place and struck off so as to leave the patch
slightly higher than the surrounding surface. It shall be left undisturbed for
one hour to permit initial shrinkage and then finally finished.
6. Tie Holes: After being cleaned and thoroughly dampened, the tie holes shall
be filled solid with patching mortar.
J. Finish Of Formed Surfaces:
1. As soon as forms can safely be removed, all irregular projections shall be
chipped off flush with the concrete surfaces. All voids produced by spacers or
any honeycombing shall be pointed up with grout and troweled flush with the
concrete surface immediately after removal of forms and water cured to
prevent Shrinkage. Honeycombing shall be cut out to expose a sound concrete
surface prior to pointing. The use of mortar pointing or patching shall be
confined to the repair of small defects in relatively green concrete. Where in
the opinion of the Engineer substantial repairs are required, the defective
concrete shall be cut out to sound concrete and repaired with gunite or the
concrete shall be removed and reconstructed as pirected.
~
03300 - 7
04-017.20
2. Tops of walls,beams and similar unformed surfaces occurring adjacent to
formed surfaces shall be struck smooth after concrete is placed and shall be
floated to a texture reasonably consistent with that of formed surfaces.
K. Finishing Concrete Slabs:
1. Gen,nal: All concrete slabs shall receive a floated finish. After floating, all
concrete slabs except as otherwise indicated and in areas to receive roofing,
insulation, tile or topping shall be troweled and immediately light broom
finished. Stair treads shall receive a light broomed finish.
2. Floated Finish: After concrete has been placed, consolidated, struck off and
leveled, it shall not be worked further until water sheen has disappeared and
the surface has hardened sufficiently to permit floating. During the first
floating, the planeness of the slab shall be checked with a lO-foot straightedge
applied at no less than two angles. All high spots shall be cut down and all low
spots shall be filled to produce a surface having a Class B Tolerance
throughout. The slab shall then be refloated to a uniform sandy texture.
3. Light Broomed Finish: After floating, slabs to receive a light broomed finish
shall be power troweled and finished struck with a soft broom drag. The
troweling shall produce a smooth surface, relatively free of defects and a
Class A Tolerance. Before the surface sets, the soft broom drag shall be
passed over the surface to produce a surface uniform in texture and
appearance.
4. Troweled Finish: After floating, slabs to receive a troweled finish shall be
power troweled and finally hand troweled. The first troweling after power
floating shall produce a smooth surface, relatively free of defects. Surfaces
shall be hand troweled after the surface has hardened sufficiently. The final
troweling shall be done by hand when a ringing sound is produced as the trowel
is moved over the surfaces. Hand troweling shall produce a surface which is
thoroughly consolidated, free from trowel marks, uniform in texture and
appearance and plane to a Class A tolerance.
5. Finishing Tolerance: Surfaces shall be true planes within the following limits:
a. Class A: lI8-inch in lO-feet as determined by a lO-foot straightedge
placed anywhere on the slab in any direction.
b. Class B: lI4-inch in lO-feet as determined by a lO-foot straightedge
placed anywhere on the slab in any direction.
6. Hardener Finish: Where indicated to receive a hardener finish, slabs shall be
wet burlap cured without application of curing and sealing agent. When slab is
at least 28 days old and thoroughly dry, the hardener shall be applied in
accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
3.03 PROTECTING
A. Curing:
1. Immediately after surface defects have been repaired, all exposed surfaces,
including slabs, walls, beams and columns shall receive a spray coat of curing
compound applied in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
~
03300 - 8
04-017.20
Exposed steel keyways and other embedded items shall be protected from the
curing compound. Concrete surfaces to be exposed to wastewater and are to
be coated with a coal tar epoxy system, or concrete floors requiring a bond for
special finishes shall be cured by the wet burlap method.
2. Curing compound shall be uniformly applied to the surfaces to be cured, in a
single coat, continuous film, at the rate of one gallon to not more than 200
square feet, by a mechanical sprayer.
3. Curing compound shall not be applied during periods of rainfall. Should the
film become damaged from any cause within the required curing period, the
damaged portions shall be repaired immediately with additional compound.
Upon removal of forms, the newly exposed surfaces shall immediately be
coated to provide a curing treatment equal to that provided for the surface.
B. Wet Burlap Curing Method: All concrete, including gtmite, that is to be cured by the
wet burlap method shall be covered with a double thickness of burlap, cotton mats,
or other approved material kept thoroughly saturated with water. The forms shall
be kept wet until removed and upon removal, the curing specified herein shall be
started immediately. Concrete shall be cured for a period of 7 days for normal
Portland cement or 4 days for high early strength cement. Concrete poured in the
. dry shall not be submerged until it has attained sufficient strength to adequately
sustain the stress involved nor shall it be subjected to flowing water across its
surface until it has cured 4 days. Curing of gunite shall be started as soon as
possible without damaging surface and not later than 2 hours after placing.
