GENERAL PROVISIONS 2.01 Engineer's Status and Authority. It is mutually agreed by and between the parties to this Contract that the Engineer shall have general supervision and direction of the work included herein. In order to prevent delays and disputes and to discourage litiga- tion it is further agreed by and between the parties of this Contract that the Engineer shall in all cases determine the amounts and quantities of the several kinds of work which are to be paid for under the Con- tract; that he shall determine all questions in rela- tion to said work and the construction thereof, that he shall in all cases decide every question which may ' arise relative to the execution of the Contract on the part of the Contractor; that his decisions and find- ings shall be the conditions precedent to the right of ' the parties hereto to arbitration or to any action on the Contract and to the rights of the Contractor to receive any money under this Contract; provided, how- ever, that should the Engineer render any decision or give any direction which in the opinion of either party hereto is not in accordance with the meaning and intent of this Contract, either party may file with the Engineer within 30 days a written objection to the decision or direction so rendered. It is the intent of this Agreement that there shall be no delay in the ' execution of the work, and the decision or directions of the Engineer as rendered shall be promptly carried out. ' 2.02 Right of Engineer to ModifyMethods and Equipment. If at any time the methods or equipment used by the Con- tractor are found to be unsafe or inadequate to secure the quality of the work or the rate of progress re- quired under this Contract, the Engineer may direct the Contractor in writing to increase their safety or improve their character and efficiency and to cease operations under this Contract until such direction is complied with. No claims shall be made against the Owner for damages caused by any delay resulting from tsuch order. ' -3- r ' 2.03 Changes and Alterations. The Contractor agrees that the Owner, through the Engineer, may make such changes and alterations as the Owner may see fit in the line, ' grade, form, dimensions, plans, or materials for the work herein contemplated or any part thereof either before or after the beginning of the construction without affecting the validity of this Contract and the accompanying bonds. If such changes or altera- tions diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a claim for damages or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with. If they increase the amount of work and the increased work can fairly be classified under ' the specifications, such increase shall be paid for according to the quantity actually done and at the unit price established for such work under this Con- tract; otherwise such work shall be paid for as pro- vided under Section 2.12 "Extra Work". In the event the Owner shall make such changes or alterations which ' will make useless any work already done or material already furnished or used in said work, then the Owner shall compensate the Contractor for any materials or labor so used, for any actual loss occasioned by such change, and for the actual expenses incurred in prepa- ration for the work as originally planned. ' 2.04 Damages. The right of general supervision by the Owner shall not make the Contractor an agent of the Owner, and the liability of the Contractor for all damages to persons, firms, and corporations arising ' from the Contractor's execution of the work shall not be lessened because of such general supervision. The Contractor is an independent contractor in regard to work under this Contract, and as such is solely liable for all damages to any persons, firms, corporations, or their property as a result of the prosecution of 1the work. 2.05 Losses from Natural Causes. All loss or damage aris- ing out of the nature of the work to be done or from the action of the elements or from any unforeseen cir- cumstances in the prosecution of the work or from unu- sual obstructions or difficulties which may be encoun- tered in the prosecution of the work shall be sustain- ed and borne by the Contractor at his own cost and expense. 2.06 Laws and Ordinances. The Contractor shall at all times observe and comply with all Federal, State, and local laws, ordinances, rules and regulations which -4- ' in any manner affect the Contract or the work and shall indemnify and save harmless the Owner against any claim arising from the violation of any such laws and ordinances whether by the Contractor or his em- ployees or his subcontractors and their employees. ' 2.07 Licenses, Permits and Certificates. Except as herein- after stipulated, all licenses, permits, certificates, etc. required for and in connection with the work to be performed under the provisions of these Contract Documents shall be secured by the Contractor at his own expense. In the event a building permit is re- quired such permit will be obtained by the Owner at no ' cost to the Contractor. 2.08 Royalties and Patents. The Contractor shall protect ' and save harmless the Owner from all and every demand for damages, royalties, or fees on any patented inven- tion used by him in connection with the work done or material furnished under this Contract; provided, how- ever, that if any patented material, machinery, appli- ance, or invention is clearly specified in this Con- tract, the cost of procuring the rights of use and the legal release or indemnity shall be borne and paid by the Owner direct unless such cost is determined and directed to be included in the bid price at the time ' the Proposal is submitted. 2.09 Keeping of Plans and Specifications Accessible. The Engineer shall—wish the Contractor with three (3) ' sets of executed Plans and Specifications without ex- pense to him, and the Contractor shall keep one copy of the same constantly accessible on the work, with the latest revisions noted thereon. 2.10 Discrepancies and Omissions. It is further agreed that it is the intent of this Contract that all work must be done and all material must be furnished in ac- cordance with the generally accepted practice, and in the event of any discrepancies between the separate ' contract documents, the priority of interpretation de- fined under "Contract Documents" shall govern. In the event that there is still any doubt as to the meaning ' and intent of any portion of the Contract, Specifica- tions or Drawings, the Engineer shall define which is intended to apply to the work. ' 2.11 Contractor's Understanding. It is understood and agreed that the Contractor has, by careful examina- tion, satisfied himself as to the nature and location ' -5- 1 ' of the work, the conformation of the ground, the char- acter, quality and quantity of the materials to be en- countered, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the work, the general and local conditions, and all other matters which can in any way affect the work I under this Contract. No verbal agreement or conversa- tion with any officer, agent, or employee of the Own- er, either before or after the execution of this Con- tract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or ob- ligations herein contained. 2.12 Extra Work. The term "extra work" as used in this ' Contract shall be understood to mean and include all work that may be required by the Owner through the Engineer to be done by the Contractor to accomplish any change, alteration, or addition to the work shown by the Plans or reasonably implied by the Specifica- tions and not covered by the Contractor's Proposal, except as provided in Section 2.03 - "Changes and Alterations". It is agreed that the Contractor shall ' perform all extra work under the direction of the Engineer when presented with a written Change Order signed by the Engineer. ' No claim for extra work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by the Engineer. In case any orders or instructions, either oral or written, appear to the Contractor to involve extra work for which he should receive compensation, he shall make a written request to the Engineer for a written Change Order authorizing such extra work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute extra work or concerning the ' payment therefor and the Engineer insists upon its performance, the Contractor shall proceed with the work after making a written request for a written Change Order and shall keep an accurate account of the ' "actual field cost" thereof as provided under Method "C" below. ' 2.13 Payment for Extra Work. It is agreed that the compen- sation to be paid the Contractor for performing extra work shall be determined by one or more of the follow- ing methods: Method "A" - By agreed unit prices; Method "B" - By agreed lump sum; or 1 1 ' Method "C" - If neither Method "A" or Method "B" can be agreed upon before the extra work is commenced, then the Contractor shall be paid the "actual field cost" of the work plus 158. ' Whereextra work is performed under Method "C", the term "actual field cost" of such extra work is hereby defined to be and shall include: (a) the payroll cost for all workmen, such as foreman, mechanics, crafts- men, and laborers; (b) the cost of all materials and supplies not furnished by the Owner; (c) rental for all power-driven equipment at agreed-upon rates for the time actually employed or used in the performance of the extra work; (d) transportation charges neces- sarily incurred in connection with any equipment authorized by the Engineer for use on said extra work and which is not already on the job; (e) all power, fuel, lubricants, water, and similar operating expens- es; (f) all incidental expenses incurred as a direct result of such extra work including sales or use taxes on materials, payroll taxes, and the additional pre- miums for construction bonds, workmen's compensation, ' public liability and property damage, and other insur- ance required by the Contract where the premiums therefor are based on payroll and material costs. The ' Engineer may direct the form in which accounts of the "actual field costs" shall be kept and may also speci- fy in writing before the work commences the method of doing the work and the type and kind of machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise these matters shall be determined by the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machinery and equip- ment shall be incorporated in the written extra work Change Order. The 158 of the "actual field cost" to be paid the Contractor shall cover and compensate him for his profit, overhead, and general superinten- dence. 2.14 Assignment and Subletting. The Contractor shall not assign or sublet the work or any part thereof without the previous written consent of the Owner, nor shall he assign, by power of attorney or otherwise, any of the money payable under this Contract unless by and with the consent of the Owner to be signified in like manner. If the Contractor assigns all or any part of any monies due or to become due under this Contract, the instrument of assignment shall contain a clause substantially to the effect that it is agreed that the right of the assignee in and to any monies due or to -7- ' become due to the Contractor shall be subject to all prior liens of all persons, firms, and corporations for services rendered or materials supplied for the performance of the work called for in this Contract. 2.15 Subcontractors. The Contractor shall be as fully re- sponsible 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 omissions of persons directly employed by him. Should ' any subcontractor fail to perform the work undertaken by him in a satisfactory manner, his subcontract shall be immediately terminated by the Contractor upon writ- ten notice from the Owner. 2.16 Owner's Status. Nothing contained in this Contract shall create any contractual relation between any sub- contractor and the Owner. 2.17 Completed Portions of Work. The Owner shall have the right to take possession of and to use any completed or partially completed portions of the work prior to completion of the entire work, but such use shall not ' constitute an acceptance of any of the work not com- pleted in accordance with the Contract Documents. If the Engineer determines that taking possession of and 1 using partially completed work substantially increases the cost of or delays construction, the Contractor shall be entitled to extra compensation or extension of time or both as determined by the Engineer. 2.18 Materials. All materials furnished by the Contractor shall be as required by the Plans and Specifications or as otherwise stipulated. The Contractor shall not start delivery of materials which he is to furnish until the Engineer has approved the source of supply of such materials. 2.19 Receiving and Storage of Materials. The Contractor shall make arrangements for receiving and storing ' materials. The Owner will not sign for or receive shipments of materials consigned to the Contractor.

The Contractor shall satisfactorily shore, support, and protect any and all structures, and all pipes, ' sewers, drains, conduits, and other facilities belong- ing to the Owner, and he shall be responsible for any damage resulting thereto. The Contractor shall not be entitled to any damages or extra pay as a result of any postponement, interference, or delay caused by any such structures and facilities being on the line of the work whether they are shown on the Plans or not. ' 2.24 Shelters for Workmen and Materials. The building or structures for housing men or the erection of tents or other forms of protection for workmen or materials will be permitted only as the Engineer shall authorize or direct.

SCHEDULING AND PROGRESS OF WORK ' 5.01 Order and Prosecution of the Work. It is the meaning and intent of this Contract, unless otherwise herein specifically provided, that the Contractor shall be allowed to prosecute his work at such times and sea- sons in such order of precedence and in such manner as shall be most conducive to economy of construction; -15- provided however, that the order and time of prosecu- tion shall be such that the work shall be substantial- ly completed as a whole or in part in accordance with ' this Contract within the time of completion hereafter designated; provided also that the Engineer may direct the time and manner of constructing any part or parts of the work when in his opinion such should be given priority to lessen the probability of danger to the public or to anticipate seasonal hazards from the ele- ments or to coordinate with other work being done for ' or by the Owner. 5.02 Rate ofProgress. The Contractor shall give the Engi- neer full information in advance as to his plans for carrying on any part of the work. If at any time prior to the start or during the progress of the work any part of the Contractor's plant or equipment or any of his methods of executing the work appear to the Engineer to be unsafe, inefficient, or inadequate to insure the required quality or rate of progress of the ' work, the Engineer may order the Contractor to in- crease or improve his facilities or methods, and the Contractor shall promptly comply with such orders; but neither compliance with such orders nor failure of the Engineer to issue such orders shall relieve the Con- tractor from his obligation to secure the degree of ' safety, the quality of work, and the rate of progress required by this Contractor. The Contractor alone shall be responsible for the safety, adequacy, and efficiency of his plant, equipment, and methods. 5.03 Sunday, Holiday, and Night Work.

No claims shall be made by the Contractor for damages, hindrances, or delays from any ' cause during the progress of any portion of the work embraced by this Contract except where the work is stopped by order of the Owner. If the Owner stops the ' work for just cause because the Contractor is not com- plying with the plans and specifications or the intent thereof, the Contractor shall have no claim for dam- ages, hindrances, or delays. However, if the Owner stops the work for any other reason, the Contractor shall be entitled to reimbursement paid by the Owner for such expenses actually incurred which in the judg- ment of the Engineer occurred as a result of the work stoppage. ' -16- ' Should delays repeatedly occur due to the Contractor's failure to provide adequate plant, equipment, or per- sonnel, or where the Engineer determines that unrea- sonable inconvenience to the public is due to such failure, the Contractor's operations shall be suspend- ed until he shall have provided adequate plant, equip- ment, and personnel to properly resume and continually prosecute the work. 5.05 Extensions of Time.

ABANDONMENT OF CONTRACT BY CONTRACTOR 8.01 Notification of Contractor. If the Contractor should abandon and fail to refuse to resume work within 10 1 ' -20- ' days after written notification from the Owner or the Engineer or if the Contractor fails to comply with the orders of the Engineer when such orders are consistent with this Contract or with the specifications hereto attached, then the Contractor shall be deemed as hav- ing abandoned the Contract. In such event the Surety ' on the bond shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the Contractor. ' 8.02 Retention of Contractor's Equipment and Materials by owner. After receiving said notice of abandonment the Contractor shall not remove from the work any machin- ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies then on the job, but the same together with any materials and equipment under contract for the work may be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety on the per- formance bond or another contractor in completion of the work; and the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefor except when used in connec- tion with extra work where credit shall be allowed as provided for under Section 2.12 entitled "Extra Work", it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and will be reflected in the final settle- ment. ' 8.03 Methods of Completing the Work. If the Surety should Tail to commence compliance with the notice for com- pletion hereinbefore provided within 10 days after ' service of such notice, then the Owner may provide for completion of the work in either of the following elective manners: ' a. The Owner may thereupon employ such force of work- ers and use such machinery, equipment, tools, mat- erials, and supplies as said Owner may deem neces- sary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, mater- ials, and supplies to said Contractor, and the ex- pense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the Owner out of such monies as may be due or that may thereafter at any time become due to the Contrac- tor under and by virtue of this Contract. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under this Contract if the same had ' been completed by the Contractor, then said Con- tractor shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this Contract if the same 1 ' -21- ' had been completed by said Contractor, then the Contractor or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the Owner. ' b. The Owner under sealed bids, after 14 days notice published two or more times in a newspaper having ' a general circulation in the county of location of the work, may let the contract for the completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this Contract. ' In case of any increase in cost to the Owner under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost under this Contract such increase ' shall be charged to the Contractor, and the Surety shall be and remain bound therefor. However, should the cost to complete any such new contract prove to be less than what would have been the cost to complete under this Contract, the Contrac- tor or his Surety shall be credited therewith. 8.04 Final Acceptance. When the work has been completed the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and a Contract Completion Certificate as hereinafter pro- vided shall be issued. A complete itemized statement of the Contract accounts certified by the Engineer as being correct shall then be prepared and delivered to the Contractor and his Surety, whereupon the Contrac- tor, his Surety or the Owner, as the case may be, shall pay the balance due as reflected by said state- ment within 15 days after the date of such Contract Completion Certificate. 8.05 Disposition of Contractor's Equipmnt. In the event ' the statement of accounts shows thaet the cost to com- plete the work is less than that which would have been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by ' the Contractor under the terms of this Contract or when the Contractor or his Surety pay the balance shown to be due by them to the Owner, then all machin- ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies left on ' the site of the work shall be turned over to the Con- tractor or his Surety. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price, and the Contractor or his Surety fail to pay the amount due the Owner within the time designated hereinabove, and there re- mains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof to- gether with an itemized list of such equipment and materials shall be mailed to the Contractor and his Surety at the respective addresses designated in this -22- ' Contract; provided, however, that actual written notice given in any manner will satisfy this condi- tion. After mailing or other giving of such notice such property shall be held by the Owner at the risk of the Contractor and his Surety subject only to the duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect ' such property. After 15 days from the date of said notice the Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the Contractor ' and his Surety. Such sale may be made at either pub- lic or private sale, with or without notice, as the Owner may elect. The Owner shall release any machin- ery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies which remain on the work and belong to persons other than the Contractor or his Surety to their proper owners. 9. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 9.01 Character of Measurements. No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be allowed, but the actual length, area, solid contents, number, and weight only shall be considered unless otherwise spe- cifically provided. ' 9.02 Estimated vs. Actual Quantities. Any and all estimat- ed quantities stipulated in the proposal form under unit price items are approximate and are to be used only (a) as a basis for estimating the probable cost ' of the work and (b) for the purpose of comparing the proposals submitted for the work. It is understood and agreed that the actual amounts of work done and materials furnished under unit price items may differ from such estimated quantities and that the basis of payment for such work and materials shall be for the ' actual amount of such work done and the actual quan- tity of materials furnished. The Contractor agrees that he will make no claim for damages, anticipated profits, or otherwise on account of any difference between the amounts of work actually performed and materials actually furnished and the ' amounts estimated therefor in the proposal or other Contract Documents; provided, however, that if the actual quantity of any item should become as much as 25 percent more than or 25 percent less than the esti- mated or contemplated quantity for such items, then either party to this Contract shall be entitled upon demand to a revised consideration on the portion of ' -23- ' the work above or below 25 percent of the estimated quantity prior to initiating work or furnishing mater- ials for the overrun or underrun quantities. Such re- vised consideration shall be determined by agreement between the parties or otherwise by the terms of this Contract as provided under Section 2.12 entitled "Extra Work". 9.03 Payment. In consideration of the furnishing of all the necessary labor, equipment, and material and the t completion of all work by the Contractor, and on the completion of all work and the delivery of all mater- ial embraced in this Contract in full conformity with the specifications and stipulations contained herein, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor the amounts set forth in the Proposal attached hereto which has been ' made a part of this Contract. The Contractor hereby agrees to receive such amounts in full payment for furnishing all material and all labor required for the aforesaid work, for all expense incurred by him, and ' for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to this Contract, the attached specifications, and requirements of the 1 Engineer. 9.04 Monthly Estimates and Payments. On or about the fifth ' day of each month the Engineer will make an approxi- mate estimate of the value of work done in conformity with the plans and specifications during the previous calendar month. The Contractor shall furnish to the 1 Engineer such detailed information as he may request to aid him as a guide in the preparation of monthly estimates. After each such estimate shall have been ' approved by the Owner, the Owner shall pay to the Con- tractor 90 percent of the amount of such estimated sum on or before the 15th day of said month. It is understood, however, that in case the whole work is near to completion and some unexpected or unusual delay occurs due to no fault or neglect on the part of ' the Contractor, the Owner may, upon written recommen- dation of the Engineer, pay a reasonable and equitable portion of the retained percentage to the Contractor. t9.05 Certificates of C�omEp_letion. Within 10 days after the Contractor has given the Engineer notice that the work ' has been completed the Engineer shall inspect the work and satisfy himself by examination and test that the work has been finally and fully completed in accor- dance with the plans, specifications and Contract. If -24- ' so, the Engineer shall issue a Contract Completion Certificate to the Owner and the Contractor. Such certificate when issued shall constitute final accep- tance of the work covered under this Contract. 9.06 Final Estimate and Payment. After the Contract Com- pletion Certificate— a> b en issued the Engineer shall proceed to make final measurements and to prepare a final estimate of the work done and materials furnish- ed under this Contract and the value thereof. The Engineer shall certify the Final Estimate and submit it to the Owner within five (5) days from the date of the Contract Completion Certificate. The Owner shall pay the Contractor within 15 days from the date of the Contract Completion Certificate the entire sum shown due on the certified Final Estimate prepared by the Engineer after deducting all amounts to be kept and retained under any provision of this Contract. However, it is to be specifically under- stood that the final payment will not be paid by the Owner to the Contractor under any circumstances until the Notarized Affidavit required by Section 9.07 en- titled "Notarized Affidavit", has been submitted to the Engineer. ' All prior estimates and payments shall be subject to correction in the final estimate and payment; but in the absence of error or manifest mistake, it is agreed that all estimates, when approved by the Owner, shall ' be conclusive evidence of the work done and materials furnished. ' 9.07 Notarized Affidavit. Before final payment for the work by the Owner the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer a notarized affidavit in duplicate stating under oath that all subcontractors, vendors, and other persons or firms who have furnished or performed labor or furnished materials for the work have been fully paid or satisfactorily secured. Such affidavit shall ' bear or be accompanied by a statement, signed by the Surety Company who provided the performance bond for the work, to the effect that said Surety Company con- sents to final payment to the Contractor being made by the Owner. ' 9.08 Release of Liability. The acceptance by the Contrac- tor of the last payment shall operate as and shall be a release to the Owner and every officer and agent thereof from all claims and liability hereunder for anything done or furnished for or relating to the work or for any act or neglect of the Owner or of any per- son relating to or affecting the work. -25- ' 9.09 Contractor's Obligation. Neither the Contract Comple- tion Certificate nor the final payment nor any provi- sion in the Contract Documents shall relieve the Con- tractor of the obligation for fulfillment of any war- ranty which may be required in the Contract Docu- ments. ' 9.10 Payments Withheld. The Owner may, on account of sub- sequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any payment to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of: a. Defective work not remedied. ' b. Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims. C. Failure of the Contractor to make payments proper- ly to subcontractors or for material or labor. d. Damage to another contractor. When the above grounds are removed or the Contractor provides a Surety Bond satisfactory to the Owner, which will protect the Owner in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of ' them. t 1 1 1 1 ' -26- 1 1 1 1 1 ' SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF AGREEMENT 1 1 1 1 ' SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF AGREEMENT ' SECTION 01 - INFORMATION 01-01 ENGINEER tThe word "Engineer" in these Specifications shall be understood as referring to Haynie & t Kallman, Inc., 2115 N.

' All portland cement used in concrete for any indivi- dual structure shall be of the same brand and type unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. 2.4 AGGREGATES Aggregates shall be sand and concrete aggregates ' conforming to the requirements prescribed in ASTM C-33 coarse aggregate gradation size number 467, and shall be approved by the Engineer prior to use. ' They shall meet the grading requirements of this subsection. ' Methods of handling materials resulting in segrega- tion, degradation or the combining of materials which result in any stockpile failing to meet speci- fications, shall not be permitted. Aggregates which are found to have a silica-released to alkali-reduced ratio greater than one, when test- ed in accordance with ASTM C289, may be used only when approved by the Engineer and provided low- alkali cement is used. 2.5 WATER Water used for concrete shall be clear and free from ' oil, vegetable matter and other deleterious substan- ces. Water shall not contain an amount of impurities that will cause a change in the time of setting of ' portland cement of more than 25 percent nor a reduc- tion in the compressive strength of mortar at four- teen days of more than 5 percent compared to results obtained with distilled water. 2:2 t ' In conventionally reinforced concrete work, water shall not contain more than 1,000 ppm of chlorides calculated as Cl, nor more than 1,000 ppm of sul- fates calculated as 504. In non-reinforced concrete work, water shall not ' contain more than 2,000 ppm of chlorides calculated as Cl, no more than 1,500 ppm of sulfates calculated as 5O4. ' 2.6 ADMIXTURES Air entrainment shall be required on exposed plant ' walls or as directed by the Engineer. The air con- tent shall not be less than 3% nor more than 6%. Admixture shall conform to ASTM C-260. Test shall ' be conducted in accordance with C-231, 233 or 173. Water reducer-set retarder admixture shall be used when average daily mean temperature is 75°F. or more ' per ASTM C-494. No other admixtures of any type shall be used unless authorized by the Engineer. When an admixture is ' permitted or specified, it shall be measured accu- rately into each batch or load in liquid form by a mechanical dispensing device and method approved by the Engineer. 2.7 PROPORTIONING ' Aggregates and cement shall be proportioned by weight. Proportioning shall consist of combining the aggre- gates, each stored in a separate bin in the various gradations prescribed, with cement and water. Weigh ' hoppers shall be charged from bins located directly over them or from conveyor belts. When conveyor belts are used, there shall be a separate belt for each size aggregate. There shall be an approved ' moisture meter installed to indicate the moisture in the sand. ' Bulk cement shall be weighed in an individual hopper and shall be kept separate from the aggregates until the batch ingredients are discharged into the mixer ' drum. The cement hopper shall be attached to a separate scale for individual weighing. 1 ' 2:3 ' The amount of water to be added to the mixture shall be measured and discharged rapidly into the mixing drum through a valve with a positive cut-off. When ' water is measured by weight it shall be weighed on a separate scale. ' All weighing or metering devices, except moisture meters, used for proportioning materials shall be accurate to within one percent. They shall be seal- ed and certified by the recognized, legal Sealer of Weights and Measures. These certifications shall be dated within the past 12 months and shall be renewed whenever required by the Engineer. The moisture ' meter shall be accurate to within 1/2 of one percent moisture. Whenever portable bunkers are set up at a new location, the scale assemblies shall be inspect- ed and certified regardless of the date the scales were last tested. ' Scales utilized in proportioning shall be either springless dial or multiple beam type. Scale gradu- ations shall be no greater than the following: ' Aggregate Scales 25 lbs. Cement Scales 5 lbs. Water Scales 5 lbs. ' All scales shall be of such size and so arranged that they may be read easily from the operator's platform. If a multiple beam type scale is used, the scale shall be provided with an indicator oper- ated by the main beam which will give positive visi- ble evidence of over or under weight. The indicator ' shall be so designed that it will operate during the addition of the last 400 pounds of any weighing. The over travel of the indicator hand shall be at ' least one-third of the loading travel. Indicators shall be enclosed against moisture and dust. Weighing equipment shall be insulated against vibra- tion and movement of other operating equipment in the plant. when the entire plant is running, the scale reading at cut-off shall not vary from the weight designated by the Engineer by more than one percent (18) for cement, one percent (18) for water, one and one-half percent (1-1/28) for any size of ' aggregate, nor one percent (18) for the total aggre- gate in any batch. 1 ' 2:4 ' 2.8 MIXING Machine mixing will be required in all cases other ' than those in which it would obviously prove to be impractical, in which event hand mixing will be per- mitted. Mixing shall be commenced as soon as possi- ble after the cement is placed in contact with the aggregates, but in no event shall the intervening period exceed 30 minutes. ' All concrete mixers shall be of such design and con- struction and so operated as to provide a thoroughly and properly mixed concrete in which the ingredients are uniformly distributed. Mixers shall be main- tained in proper and serviceable working condition and any part or portion thereof that is out of or- der, or becomes worn to such extent as to detrimen- tally affect the quality of mixing, shall be prompt- ly repaired or replaced. ' 2.9 CONCRETE CONSISTENCY The amount of water added at the mixer shall be re- gulated to take into account the free water in the aggregates. Free water is defined as the total water minus the water absorbed by the aggregate in a ' saturated surface-dry condition. The amount of water used in the mixture shall not ' exceed the minimum amount necessary to permit prac- tical placement and consolidation of the concrete, and unless otherwise authorized by the Engineer, shall be that required to produce concrete with a ' slump within the range shown as nominal in the fol- lowing table: t Type of Work Nominal Slump Maximum Slump (inches) (inches) Concrete Pavement 0-2 3 ' Non-reinforced Concrete 0-3 4 Reinforced Concrete Structures ' Heavy Sections 0-3 5 Thin Sections & Columns 0-4 6 Concrete Placed under tWater 6-8 9 ' 2:5 1 ' The concrete used in the work shall not have a slump greater than that shown as maximum above, nor a free water content greater than 312 pounds per cubic yard tof concrete. When adverse or difficult conditions affect the placement of concrete, the Engineer may authorize a greater slump to be used, provided both the water and cement are increased. Water shall be added at a ' ratio not to exceed 30 pounds per sack of added cement per cubic yard of concrete, and such addi- tional water and cement shall be at the Contractor's expense. ' The consistency of concrete shall be determined in accordance with ASTM C-143. ' If slump tests of individual samples taken at appro- ximately the 1/4 and 3/4 points of the discharge differ by more than two inches (2"), the mixer will not be acceptable for further use until the condi- tion is corrected. 2.10 TRANSIT MIXERS The type, capacity, and manner of operation of the ' mixing and transporting equipment for ready-mix con- crete shall conform to the current ASTM C-94 stan- dard; "Standards for Operation of Truck Mixers and Agitators of the National Ready-Mixed Concrete Asso- ciation" and the "Truck Mixer and Agitators Stan- dards of the Truck Mixer Manufacturers Bureau". Transit mix concrete trucks shall be equipped with an automatic device for recording the number of revolutions of the drum during the mixing period. Each mixer and agitator shall have attached thereto in a prominent place, a metal plate or plates, in- stalled by the manufacturer on which is plainly marked the capacity of the drum in terms of the volume of mixed concrete and the speed of rotation for the agitating and mixing speeds of the mixing drum or blades. ' Each mixer shall have an identification number painted on the truck in such a location that it can be easily read from the batching platform. ' The total volume of materials introduced into the mixer shall not exceed the manufacturer's guaranteed mixing capacity. If the concrete so mixed does not ' 2:6 meet the uniformity requirements of this subsection, the amount of materials charged into the mixer shall be reduced. The drum of the mixer shall be completely emptied of any previously mixed load. The proper proportions of aggregate, cement, and water for each load of concrete shall be placed in the mixer and shall be mixed therein for not less than 70 nor more than 100 revolutions of the drum or blades at the speed de- signated by the manufacturer of the equipment as mixing speed. Additional revolutions of the drum shall be at the speed designated by the manufacturer ' of the equipment as agitating speed. The revolving of the drum shall be continuous until the concrete is completely emptied from the drum. ' When concrete is being placed for concrete struc- tures, all wash water shall be emptied from the mix- er before any portion of the succeeding load is ' placed therein. For all other work, the mixer shall be empty or may carry 10 gallons of water in the drum. Adequate control of ready-mixed concrete will ' normally require that additional water be added and mixed into the batch at the point of discharge. Water so added shall be mixed into the load for a ' minimum mixing time of three (3) minutes. Water shall not be added to the load during transit. The total elapsed time between the addition of water at the batch plant and discharging the completed mix shall not exceed 90 minutes. Under conditions con- tributing to quick setting, the total elapse time permitted may be reduced by the Engineer. The Engineer shall be provided with a legible certi- fied weighmaster's certificate which shall contain the following information: Name of vendor ' Name of contractor Number of cubic yards in the load Actual weights of cement and of each size of ' aggregate Amount of water added at the plant Amount of water in the aggregate Brand and type of cement Brand and amount of admixture Time and date of batching 2:7 1 Space shall be provided on the certificate so that amount of water added on the job may be indicated. 2.11 HAND MIXING Hand mixed concrete shall be mixed on a water-tight ' platform or in a mortar box in batches not to exceed 1/3 cubic yard each. The aggregates shall first be spread in a uniform layer over which the required ' quantity of cement shall be evenly distributed. The entire batch shall be turned with shovels until the ingredients are thoroughly blended before adding the water. After adding the proper amount of water, the batch shall again be turned with shovels until a uniform consistency is obtained. Methods of hand mixing which allow the loss of mixing water will not be permitted. 2.12 TRANSPORTING BATCHED MATERIALS AND MIXED CONCRETE ' The compartments of trucks or other equipment used for the purpose of transporting proportioned dry ag- gregate and cement, or mixed concrete, shall be suitably constructed to adequately protect and pre- vent loss or leakage of the contents during charg- ing, transit or discharging. ' 2.13 STEEL REINFORCEMENT FOR CONCRETE 2.13.1 General The following specifications set forth the require- ments for bar, wire, and wire mesh reinforcement. The reinforcement shall conform accurately to the dimensions and details indicated on the plans or otherwise prescribed. Before being placed in any concrete work, it shall be cleaned thoroughly of all rust, mill scale, mortar, oil, dirt, or coating of any character which would be likely to destroy, re- duce, or impair its proper bonding with the con- crete. 2.13.2 Reinforcing Steel Unless otherwise specified, reinforcing steel shall be Grade 60 billet steel conforming to ASTM A-615. Varying grades shall not be used interchangeably in structures. 2:8 ' Steel bending processes shall conform to the re- quirements of ACI-318.

The joint shall be blown out with high pressure compressed air to re- move all residue. ' 2:11 At the time of applying the joint sealant, the joint shall be surface dry, and acceptable to the Engi- neer. No sealant shall be placed during unsuitable weather or when the atmospheric temperature is below 50°F, or when weather conditions indicate that the temperature may fall below 32°F within 24-hours. ' The joint shall be filled from the bottom to the top without formation of voids. The top of the finished joint seal shall be between 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch ' below the finish surface. At no time shall the emulsion be subjected to a tem- perature below 40°F. Prior to application, the joint sealant may be warmed if necessary to permit proper filling of the joints. The heating shall be t carefully controlled to avoid overheating of any part of the container or mixture and under no cir- cumstances shall the emulsion be heated to a temper- ature greater than 130°F. Immediately before applying the sealant, the emul- sion shall be mixed with the proper amount of paste setting agent. The components shall be mixed, pre- ferably with a power mixer, for 5-minutes to produce a homogeneous material. ' 2.14.5 Concrete Curing Compound Curing compound shall consist of a liquid which, when applied to fresh concrete by means of a spray gun, will form an impervious membrane over the ex- posed surfaces of the concrete. Mats and poly- plastic sheets may be used. The membrane may be either asphaltic or paraffin ' derivatives to which other water-proofing materials may have been added. Concrete curing compounds shall be clear or translucent with red fugitive dye. Curing time shall be a minimum of five (5) ' days with temperature above 50°F. Curing compound shall be non-toxic and taste and odor free.

Mix compound with ' cement, sand, and gravel per manufacturer's specifi- cations. "Thoroset" shall be as manufactured by Standard Dry Wall Products, Miami, Florida. ' 2.15 CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION 2.15.1 General Concrete chambers, vaults, walls, structural slabs, footings, foundations and similar structures shall be constructed in conformity with the plans and this sub-section. Concrete for use in work constructed under this Section shall conform to the requirements ' herein. Safe and suitable ladders shall be provided to per- mit access to all portions of the work. The compressive strength of the concrete referred to in this section will be based on the results of two ' tests from 6" X 12" concrete test cylinders made and tested by the Engineer in accordance with ASTM C-31 and C-39. The cylinders shall be cured in accordance with ASTM C-31. ' 2:13 ' 2.15.2 Subgrade for Concrete Structures Earth subgrade upon which concrete is placed shall be firm and free from water. Ground water shall be kept below subgrade until the concrete has set. When the subgrade is in dry earth, it shall be tho- roughly dampened with water to ensure that no mois- ture will be absorbed from the fresh concrete. ' When the design details for the project provide for the construction of filter or drain material con- sisting of gravel (or combination of gravel and sand), which material will be subgrade for concrete, ' the placing of steel reinforcement and placement of concrete shall follow the installation of the filter or drain material as closely as practical. The fil- ter or drain material shall be kept de-watered to the extent necessary to prevent any portion of con- crete materials being deposited in water. t When the concrete is to be deposited on rock, the rock shall be fully uncovered, cleaned, and its sur- face shall be removed to a depth sufficient to ex- pose sound rock. Bedrock shall be roughly leveled- off or cut to approximately horizontal and vertical steps. Seams in the rock shall be grouted under ' pressure or otherwise treated as the Engineer may direct. 2.15.3 Forms Forms shall be of suitable material and of a type, size, shape, quality, and strength to ensure con- struction as designed. The forms shall be true to line and grade, mortar tight, and sufficiently rigid to resist deflection during placing of the concrete. ' The responsibility for their adequacy shall rest with the Contractor. All dirt, chips, sawdust, nails and other foreign matter shall be completely removed from forms before any concrete is deposited therein. The surfaces of forms shall be smooth and free from irregularities, dents, sags and holes that would deface the finished surfaces. Forms previous- ly used shall be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt, mortar and foreign matter before being re-used. ' 2:14 ' Before concrete is placed in forms, all inside surfaces of the forms shall be thoroughly treated with releasing agent as specified herein. Care shall be exercised that no releasing agent is deposited on previously placed concrete. Forms for all surfaces that will not be completely enclosed or hidden below the permanent surface of the ground shall be made of surfaced lumber, or material which will provide a surface at least equal ' to surfaced lumber or plywood. Any lumber or mate- rial which becomes badly checked or warped, prior to placing concrete, shall not be used. Forms for all exposed surfaces shall be constructed of plywood or an approved equal. Plywood for forms ' shall be Exterior Type, of the grade "Concrete-Form Exterior", conforming to the specifications of the U. S. Department of Commerce, National Bureau of Standards, Commercial Standards, latest edition. ' Plywood shall be furnished and placed in 48 inch widths and in uniform lengths of not less than 96 inches, except where the dimension of the member ' formed is less than the specified panel dimension. Plywood shall be placed with the grain of the outer ' plies in the direction of the longest span. Where plywood is attached directly to the studs or joists, the panels shall be not less than 5/8 inch thick, and the studs or joists shall be spaced not more ' than 12 inches, center-to-center. Plywood less than 5/8 inch thick, otherwise conforming to the require- ments specified herein, may be used with a contin- uous backing of 3/4 inch sheeting. All form panels shall be placed in a neat symmetrical pattern with the horizontal joists level and continuous. All ' joints shall be filled with an approved quick-set- ting compound and finished flush with the interior of the form. 1 Wooden forms for copings and curbs shall have a thickness of not less than 1-5/8 inches and a width of not less than the full depth of coping or curb. tUnless otherwise shown on the plans, all sharp edges shall be chamfered with 3/4 inch by 3/4 inch trian- gular fillets. Forms for curved surfaces shall be so constructed and placed that the finished surface will not deviate from the arc of the curve by more than the tolerance shown on the Plans. t ' 2:15 ' Forms shall be so constructed that portions, where finishing is required, may be removed without dis- turbing portions of forms to remain in place. 1 Forms for girders and slabs shall be cambered as may be required by the Engineer. ' Forms shall, as far as practicable, be so construct- ed that the form marks will conform to the general ' line of the structure. Form clamps or bolts, approved by the Engineer, shall be used to fasten forms. The use of twisted ' wire loop ties to hold forms in position will not be permitted, nor shall wooden spreaders be used unless authorized by the Engineer. Clamps or bolts shall ' be of sufficient strength and number to prevent spreading of the forms. They shall be the break-off type so that they can be entirely removed or cut back 1 inch below the finished surface of the con- crete. All forms for outside surfaces shall be con- structed with stiff wales at right angles to the studs, and all form clamps or bolts shall extend 1 through and fasten such wales. Form work shall be approved prior to placement of ' concrete in the form. 2.15.4 Removal of Forms ' The periods of time for form removal set forth here- in are permissive only and subject to the Contractor assuming all risks that may be involved. The time periods are minimum with no allowance therein for external loads. At times of low temperature, or other adverse conditions, the Engineer may require the forms to be kept in place for longer periods of time. ' The time periods are predicated on the use of con- crete to which no admixtures have been added. No forms shall be removed until approval of Engineer ' is obtained. Forms shall be stripped after the re- quired time and projecting wire snapped off. Remov- al shall not proceed faster than the required fin- ishing procedure can be completed. Vertical forms shall not be disturbed for at least ' twenty-four (24) hours after last concrete in walls is placed, except as authorized by the Engineer. 2:16 1 1 ' Formsshall remain in place a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours and be removed only after Engineer's approval. ' 2.15.5 Falsework All falsework shall be designed and constructed to provide the necessary rigidity and to support the loads. Falsework for the support of a superstruc- ture shall be designed to support the loads that ' would be imposed if the entire superstructure were placed at one time. All falsework, staging, walkways, forms, ladders, cofferdams, and similar accessories shall equal or exceed the minimum requirements of the State Divi- sion of Industrial Safety. Compliance with such requirements shall not relieve the Contractor from full responsibility for the adequacy of safety mea- sures. 2.15.6 Placing Reinforcement ' Before placing reinforcing steel, the Contractor shall submit a reinforcing steel placing plan for approval of the Engineer. ' Reinforcing bars shall be accurately placed as shown on the plans and shall be firmly and securely held in position in accordance with Concrete Reinforcing ' Steel Institute "Recommended Practice for Placing Reinforcing Bars", and by using concrete or metal chairs, spacers, metal hangers, supporting wires and I other approved devices of sufficient strength to resist crushing under full load. Metal chairs which extend to the surface of the concrete (except where shown on the plans) and wooden supports, shall not be used. Placing bars on layers of fresh concrete as the work ' progresses and adjusting bars during the placing of concrete will not be permitted. Before placing in the forms, all reinforcing steel shall be cleaned ' thoroughly of mortar, oil, dirt, loose mill scale, loose or thick rust, and coatings of any character that would destroy or reduce the bond. No concrete ' shall be deposited until the placing of the rein- forcing steel has been inspected and approved. 1 2:17 1 2.15.7 Splicing Splices of bars shall be made only where shown on the plans or as approved by the Engineer. Where bars are spliced, they shall be lapped at least 36 diameters, unless otherwise shown on the plans. Splicing shall be accomplished by placing the bars in contact with each other and wiring them togeth- er. Welding of reinforcing steel will not be permitted unless specifically authorized by the Engineer. 2.15.8 Bending Reinforcement Bends and hooks in bars shall be made in the manner prescribed in the "Manual of Standard Practice" of the American Concrete Institute. Bars shall not be bent or straightened in a manner which will injure the material. Bars with kinks or unspecified bends shall not be used. ' 2.15.9 Welded Wire Fabric Welded wire fabric shall be spliced not less than two meshes. It shall be lifted carefully into its specified position after the concrete is placed but still plastic. t2.15.10 Placing Concrete, General ' Concrete shall be conveyed, deposited and consoli- dated by any method which will preclude the segrega- tion or loss of ingredients. Chutes used in conveying concrete shall be sloped to permit concrete of the consistency required to flow without segregation. Where necessary to prevent t segregation, chutes shall be provided with baffle boards or a reversed section at the outlet. Where a sequence for placing concrete is shown on the plans, no deviation will be permitted unless approved in writing by the Engineer. ' Before depositing concrete, all debris, spreaders, etc., shall be removed from the space to be occupied 2:18 t by the concrete and forms shall be thoroughly wet- ted. All freestanding water shall be removed. Reinforcing steel and form shall be free of scale, ' oil film, hardened concrete. Formwork shall have specified coatings. t Concrete shall be deposited as rapidly and as near as practicable in its final position, and shall not be caused to flow in a manner to permit or cause ' segregation. Runways shall be provided so that wheelbarrows or buggies containing concrete will not run over reinforcing steel or planks resting on steel. Just before placing new concrete on old con- crete in walls, a modified grout consisting of the same mix as the concrete minus one-half of the coarse aggregates shall be deposited to a depth of ' six (6) inches before placing the regular concrete mix. Concrete shall be worked and vibrated mechani- cally with suitable appliances until it closes snug- ly against all surfaces and is in perfect and com- plete contact with all embedded reinforcement and other metals. t Horizontal construction joints shall have a slurry coating of 1-part cement and 3-parts of sand mixed with a solution of 1-part "Acryl 60" to 3-parts of ' water prior to placing modified 6-inch mix noted above. This slurry shall be applied by pumping or other means to assure that about 1/2-inch thick ' coating of the slurry shall cover the surface of the joint. The 6-inch thick modified mix noted in the above paragraph shall follow not more than 60 min- utes later. "Acryl 60" shall be as manufactured by ' Standard Wall Products, Miami, Florida. 2.15.11 Notification ' The Contractor shall give the Engineer written notice of at least 24-hours in advance of placing ' concrete in any part of the work so that the Engi- neer may make final inspection of the preparations of the location fr such placing. No concrete shall be placed except in the presence of the Engineer. ' 2.15.12 Construction Joints t Construction joints shall be placed only in posi- tions approved by Engineer or as indicated on draw- ings. Exposed concrete face of construction joints ' shall be kept continuously wet from time of initial ' 2:19 1 ' set until pouring of new concrete against it. The contact surface shall be thoroughly cleaned by chip- ping the entire surface not earlier than 8 days ' after the first pour or jet washing the surface, not less than 3-1/2 nor more than 6-1/2 hours after the concrete is placed, or by sandblasting. The joint ' surface shall consist of clean aggregate solidly embedded in the mortar matrix. All wash water shall be entirely removed from the surface. All construc- tion joints in waterbearing tanks, except joints above water level, shall have "waterstops" install- ed; also, any additional ones shown on drawings. All waterstop splices, joints, corners, or intersec- tions shall be welded. Watertight concrete is required for all submerged t structures and waterbearing structures. Any cracks or imperfections developing at any point shall be repaired to the satisfaction of the Engineer. ' Where concrete construction is proposed to be ex- tended at a later date, the walls and floors shall be stubbed 24-inches. The contractor shall supply, ' and cast-in, screwed insert anchors with protective plugs in the face of the stub walls and floors. The contractor shall supply the Owner with the screw-in ' re-bar connectors, compatible with the insert anchor, for use when the construction is extended. ' 2.15.13 Slabs Subgrade shall be in form as shown on drawings to receive slab concrete. Slabs shall be poured in one ' continuous operation between expansion joints. 2.15.14 Walls ' Walls shall be poured in horizontal layers not to exceed 18" thickness in such a manner that prevents ' segregation of constituents or accumulation of hard- ened concrete on the forms or metal reinforcement above the level of the concrete. Total height of any one pour shall not exceed 12'0". Free fall of t concrete into wall forms shall not excess 410" with- out the use of pipes or tremies. Pipes and tremies shall be at least 6 inches in diameter. ' 2.15.15 Depositing ' To avoid segregation, concrete shall be deposited as near to its final position as is practicable. The ' 2:20 ' use of vibrators for extensive shifting of the mass of concrete will not be permitted. Concrete that has partially hardened, has been retempered, or is ' contaminated by foreign materials shall not be depo- sited in the structure. ' Concrete shall be placed in horizontal layers inso- far as practical. Placing shall start at the low point and proceed upgrade unless otherwise permitted ' by the Engineer. Concrete shall be placed in a con- tinuous operation between construction joints and shall be terminated with square ends and level tops unless otherwise shown on the plans. ' 2.15.16 Consolidating ' Concrete shall be thoroughly consolidated in a man- ner that will encase the reinforcement and inserts, fill the forms, and produce a surface or even tex- ture free of rock pockets and excessive voids. Structural concrete shall be consolidated by means of high frequency internal vibrators of a type, size ' and number approved by the Engineer. The location, manner and duration of the application of the vibra- tors shall be such as to secure maximum consolida- tion of the concrete without separation of the mor- tar and coarse aggregate, and without causing water or cement paste to flush to the surface. Internal vibrators shall not be held against the forms or reinforcing steel.
