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 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. General: 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, a minimum centrifugal force of 700 - pounds and a minimum frequency of 8,000 vibrators per second. 3. Vibrators for Confined Areas: In confined areas, the specified vibrators shall be supplemented by others having a minimum head diameter of 1 1/2- inches, a 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 covered 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 1/2 -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 concrete. All necessary precautions shall be taken to prevent these objects from being displaced, broken or deformed. Before concrete is placed, care shall be taken to determine that all embedded parts are firmly and securely fastened in place as 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 metal work to prevent leakage and to secure perfect adhesion. Drains shall be adequately protected from intrusion of concrete. 03300 - 6 H. Bonding To Existing Surfaces: Existing concrete surfaces that are to have new concrete banded 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. 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 ienrent 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 directed. 03300 - 7 • 2. Tops j 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. General: 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 10 -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 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: 1/8 -inch in 10 -feet as determined by a 10 -foot straightedge placed anywhere on the slab in any direction. b. Class B: 1/4 -inch in 10 -feet as determined by a 10 -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 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 gunite, 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.
