shall be 6 bags per cubic yard of concrete and maximum
water content shall be 5.5 US gallons per sack of cement,
Including moisture in the aggregate. Slump for normal
weight concrete shall be a maximum of 4 inches and a
minimum of 2 inches the slump of machine placed concrete
shall be no less than 1-1/4 inches nor more than 3 inches
Standard test C-143 shall be used to measure slump.
Compressive strength of concrete at 28 days shall be 4000
psi. All exterior concrete shall have air entrainment of 5%
to 8% by volume per ASTM C-260. Retempering of
delivered concrete will not be allowed. Concrete shall be
composed of:
1. Portland cement - Conforming, to ASTM Type IA
or Type IIIA.
2. Aggregates Conforming to ASTM C-33
3. Water - Shall be clear and free from injurious
amounts of oils, acids, alkalizes, organic materials
or other deleterious substances.
B. Welded Steel Wire Fabric - Where required for concrete
reinforcement shall conform to ASTM A185.
C. Premoulded Joint Filler - Shall be of non -extruding type
meeting ASTM D-544 except premoulded pint filler used In
concrete walk construction may be either non -extruding or
resilient.
D. Bituminous Pavement Materials - All materials proposed for
the construction of bituminous pavements shall comply
with the Indiana Department of Transportation
specifications, per latest revision.
E. Compacted Aggregate Subbase: Shall be crushed stone or
gravel. Crushed gravel shall be a minimum of 35% crushed
material. Chert shall be limited to a maximum of 8% of the
total. Material shall be free from an excess of flat,
elongated thinly laminated, soft or disintegrated pieces; and
shall be free from fragments coated with dirt. Compacted
aggregate shall be graded as follows:
SIEVE SIZE % PASSING
1--1/2" 100
1" 80-100
3/4" 70-90
1/2" 55-80
#4 35-60
#8 25-50
#30 12- 30
#200 5-0
3. APPLICATION
A. Grading - Do any necessary grading in addition to that
performed in accordance with Earthwork Section, to bring
subgrades, after final compaction, to the required grades
and sections for site improvement.
B. Preparation of Subgrade - Remove spongy and otherwise
unsuitable material and replace with stable material. No
traffic will be allowed on prepared subgrade prior to paving.
C. Utility Structures - Check for correct elevation of all
manhole covers, valve boxes and similar structures located
within areas to be paved, and make, or hove made, any
necessary adjustments in such structures.
D. Placing Concrete
1. Subgrade - Place concrete only on c compacted material
compacted subgrade or base free from loose
material Place no concrete on a muddy or frozen
subgrade
2. Forms - All forms shall be free from warp, tight
enough to prevent leakage and substantial
enough to maintain their shape and position
without springing or settling, when concrete is
placed Forms shall be clean and smooth
immediately before concreting
3. Placing Concrete - Concrete shall be deposited so
as to require as little rehandling, as practicable.
When concrete is to be placed at an atmospheric
temperature of 35 degrees F or less, paragraph
70210 of the Indiana Department of
Transportation Specifications latest revision shall
be followed.
E. Concrete Curb
1. Expansion joints - Shall be 1/2 inch thick
premoulded at ends of all returns and at a
maximum spacing of 40 feet.
2. Contraction Joints - Unless otherwise provided,
contraction joints shall be sawed joints spaced 10
feet on center.
3. Finish - Tamp and screed concrete as soon a
placed and fill any honey combed places. Finish
square comers to 1/4" radius and other corners
to radii shown.
F. Concrete Walks and Exterior Steps
1. Slopes - Provide 1/4 Inch per foot cross slope.
Make adjustments in slopes at walk intersections
as necessary to provide proper drainage.
2. Dimensions - Walks and steps shall be one course
construction and of widths and details shown on
the drawings
3. Finish - Screed concrete and trowel with a steel
trowel to a hard dense surface after Surface
water has disappeared. Apply medium broom
finish and scribe control joints at 5 foot spacing
Provide 1/2" expansion joints where sidewalks
intersect, and at a maximum spacing of 48 feet
between expansion pints.
G. Curing Concrete -- Except as otherwise specified, cure all
concrete by one of the methods described in Section 501
17 of the Indiana Department of Transportation
Specifications, latest revision.
H. Concrete Curing Compound - All exterior concrete shall be
coated with curing compound complying with ASTM C
309, TYPE 1-D, class A.
J. Concrete Testing - Concrete testing shall meet the
requirements established for structural concrete to be used
in building on this site
4. HERBICIDE TREATMENT
