BACKGROUND: November 2021: Council passed Resolution 282-21 authorizing professional services with Hawkins Weir for recycling and trash service improvements. October 2022: Council passed Resolution 220-22 authorizing construction administration services for these improvements. August 2024: Council passed Resolution 218-24 authorizing a professional services contract with Olsson Engineering, including the scope for compost pad rehabilitation and driveway design. March 2025: Council passed Resolution 77-25 authorizing a construction contract push wall replacement and associated items. March 2025: Council passed Resolution 78-25 amending the professional services contract with Hawkins Weir to include additional services for baler stem walls, and wall repairs. December 2025: The City’s Procurement Division received three bids for the baler concrete stem walls and compost pad concrete improvements. DISCUSSION: Over the past several years, numerous improvements have been made to the recycling and trash service facilities. Council approval of an amendment to increase the project scope allowed staff to direct Hawkins Weir to prepare bid documents for the removal and replacement of the failing concrete stem wall at the baler. Mailing address: 113 W. Mountain Street Fayetteville, AR 72701 www.fayetteville-ar.gov Additionally, Council’s approval of Olsson’s engineering contract authorized staff to proceed with the development of bid documents for the compost pad rehabilitation and driveway improvements. To achieve economies of scale, staff—working in coordination with Procurement—advertised both concrete projects under a single bid package. This approach resulted in more than $40,000 in cost savings for the City.

For purposes of this Paragraph 6.04A.1, a proposed item of Equipment or Material will be considered functionally equal to an item so named if: a. In the exercise of reasonable judgment Engineer determines that: (i) it is at least equal in quality, durability, appearance, strength, and design characteristics; (ii) it will reliably perform at least equally well the function imposed by the design concept of the completed Project as a functioning whole, and; b. Contractor certifies that: (i) there is no increase in cost to Owner; and ii) it will conform substantially, even with deviations, to the detailed requirements of the item named in the Contract Documents. c. “Or-Equal” will not be considered until after Award of Contract. 2.

The procedure for review by Engineer will be similar to that provided in Paragraph 6.04A.2 as applied by Engineer and as may be supplemented in the General Requirements. C. Engineer will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposed substitute or “or-equal” item. Engineer will be the sole judge of acceptability, and no substitute or “or-equal” will be ordered, installed, or used until Engineer’s review is complete, which will be evidenced by either (i) a Change Order for a substitute, or ii) an approved Submittal for an “or-equal.” Owner may require Contractor to furnish at Contractor’s expense a special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute. D. Engineer will record time required by Engineer and, Engineer’s Consultants, in evaluating substitute proposed or submitted by Contractor pursuant to Paragraphs 6.04A.2 and 6.04B and in making changes in the Contract Documents or in the provisions of any other direct contract with Owner for work on the Project occasioned thereby.

If the Work is defective, or Contractor fails to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equipment, or fails to furnish or perform the Work in such a way that the completed Work will conform to the Contract Documents, Owner may order Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, this right of Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of Contractor or any other party. 13.07 CORRECTION OR REMOVAL OF DEFECTIVE WORK: A. If required by Engineer, Contractor shall promptly, as directed, either correct all defective Work, whether or not fabricated, installed or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by Engineer, remove it from the Site and replace it with nondefective Work.

If, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, Owner and, prior to Engineer’s recommendation of final payment, also Engineer prefers to accept it, Owner may do so. Contractor shall bear all direct, indirect, and consequential costs attributable to Owner’s evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by Engineer as to reasonableness and to include but not be limited to fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals).

ARTICLE 14 - PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION 14.01 SCHEDULE OF VALUES: A. The schedule of values established will serve as the basis for progress payments and will be incorporated into a form of Application for Payment acceptable to Engineer. Progress payments on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units completed. 14.02 APPLICATION FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT: A. Not later than the 15th day of each month, or on the next business day thereafter, (but not more often than once a month), Contractor shall submit to Engineer for review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by Contractor covering the Work completed as of the date of the Application and accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the Contract Documents. B. Beginning with the second Application for Payment, each Application shall include an affidavit of Contractor stating that all previous progress payments received on account of the Work have been applied on account to discharge Contractor’s legitimate obligations associated with prior Applications for Payment. C. If payment is requested on the basis of Equipment and Materials not incorporated in the Work but delivered and suitably stored at the Site or at another location agreed to in writing, the Application for Payment shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice, or other documentation warranting that Owner has received the Equipment and Materials free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests, and encumbrances which are hereinafter in these General Conditions referred to as “Liens”) and evidence that the Equipment and Materials are covered by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect Owner’s interest therein, all of which will be satisfactory to Owner.

Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, Materials, and Equipment covered by any Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to Owner no later than the time of payment free and clear of all Liens. 14.04 REVIEW OF APPLICATION FOR PROGRESS PAYMENT: A. Engineer will, within seven days after receipt of each Application For Payment, either indicate in writing a recommendation of payment and present the Application Ap pendix B Bid 25 53 Co nstruction Tra nsfer Sta tion Im provem ents City Issued Bid City of Fayetteville, Arkansas Fayetteville Transfer Station Improvements Baler Sump and Compost Pad Repairs SECTION 00700 – GENERAL CONDITIONS (continued) 00700-General Conditions 00700-43 November 2025 to Owner (subject to the provisions of the last sentence of Paragraph 14.04D), or return the Application to Contractor indicating in writing Engineer’s reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the latter case, Contractor may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. After the required internal reviews and processing by the Owner, the Owner will diligently proceed to make payment to the Contractor, in accordance with the approved payment request, within 30 days. All efforts will be made to make payments within the 30 day period, but the Owner cannot guarantee the 30 days maximum time. B. Engineer’s recommendation of any payment requested in an Application for Payment will constitute a representation by Engineer to Owner, based on Engineer’s on-Site observations of the Work in progress as experienced and qualified design professionals and on Engineer’s review of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and schedules that the Work has progressed to the point indicated; that, to the best of Engineer’s knowledge, information, and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, to a final determination of quantities and classifications for Unit Price Work under Paragraph 9.08, and to any other qualifications stated in the recommendation); and that Contractor is entitled to payment of the amount recommended. However, by recommending any such payment, Engineer will not thereby be deemed to have represented that exhaustive or continuous on-Site inspections have been made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to Engineer in the Contract Documents, or that there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle Contractor to be paid additionally by Owner or Owner to withhold payment to Contractor. C. Engineer’s recommendation of final payment will constitute an additional representation by Engineer to Owner that the conditions precedent to Contractor’s being entitled to final payment as set forth in Paragraph 14.09 have been fulfilled. D. Engineer may refuse to recommend the whole or any part of any payment if, in Engineer’s opinion, it would be incorrect to make such representations to Owner. Engineer may also refuse to recommend any such payment, or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, nullify any such payment previously recommended, to such extent as may be necessary in Engineer’s opinion to protect Owner from loss because: 1. The Work is defective, or completed Work has been damaged requiring correction or replacement. 2. Written claims have been made against Owner or Liens have been filed in connection with the Work. 3. The Contract Price has been reduced by Written Amendment or Change Order 4. Owner has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with Paragraph 13.10, 5.

Engineer shall not certify payments requesting more than eighty (80) percent of the Contract amount until such time as all operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement manuals, and product data has been furnished by the Contractor to the Owner. E. Owner may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by Engineer because claims have been made against Owner on account of Contractor’s performance of furnishing of the Work, or Liens have been filed in connection with the Work, or there are other items entitling Owner to a set-off against the amount recommended, but Owner must give Contractor immediate written notice (with a copy to Engineer) stating the reasons for such action. F. When all grounds for withholding payment are removed, payment will be made in the amounts withheld because of them. G. Progress payments will be in the amount of 95% of the amount of the Work completed and 100% of Equipment and Materials suitably stored and documented as indicated on the Application for Payment less the sum of all previous payments. The owner may forego withholding retainage of the progress payments if the construction contract is fifty-percent (50%) complete and the contractor has provided the work in a satisfactory manner. 14.05 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION: A. When Contractor considers the entire Work ready for its intended use, Contractor shall notify Owner and Engineer in writing that the entire Work is substantially complete (except for items specifically listed by Contractor as incomplete) and request that Engineer issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. B. Within a reasonable time thereafter, Contractor, and Engineer shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status of completion. If Engineer does not consider the Work substantially complete, Engineer will notify Contractor in writing giving his reasons therefor. If Engineer considers the Work substantially complete, Engineer will prepare and deliver to Owner a tentative certificate of Substantial Completion which will fix the Date of Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or corrected before final payment. C. Owner shall have seven days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which to make written objection to Engineer as to any provisions of the certificate or attached list. If, after considering such objections, Engineer concludes that the Work is not substantially complete, Engineer will within fourteen days after submission of the tentative certificate to Owner notify Contractor in writing, stating the reasons therefor. If, after consideration of Owner’s objections, Engineer considers the Work substantially complete, Engineer will within said fourteen days execute and deliver to Owner and Contractor a definitive certificate of Substantial Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the tentative certificate as Engineer believes justified after consideration of any objections from Owner.

F. Owner shall have the right to exclude Contractor from the Work after the Date of Substantial Completion, but Owner shall allow Contractor reasonable access to complete or correct items on the tentative list. 14.06 PARTIAL UTILIZATION: A. Use by Owner of any finished part of the Work, which has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or which Owner, Engineer, and Contractor agree constitutes a separately functioning and useable part of the Work that can be used by Owner without significant interference with Contractor’s performance of the remainder of the Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work subject to the following: 1. Owner at any time may request Contractor in writing to permit Owner to use any such part of the Work which Owner believes to be ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If Contractor agrees, Contractor will certify to Owner and Engineer that said part of the Work is substantially complete and request Engineer to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Contractor at any time may notify Owner and Engineer in writing that Contractor considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and request Engineer to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either such request, Owner, Contractor, and Engineer shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion. If Engineer does not consider that part of the Work to be substantially complete, Engineer will notify Owner and Contractor in writing giving the reasons therefor. If Engineer considers that part of the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions of Paragraph 14.05 will apply with respect to certification of Substantial Completion of that part of the Work and the division of responsibility in respect thereof and access thereto. 2. Owner may at any time request Contractor in writing to permit Owner to take over operation of any such part of the Work although it is not substantially complete. A copy of such request will be sent to Engineer and within a reasonable time thereafter, Owner, Contractor, and Engineer shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion and will prepare a list of the items remaining to be completed or corrected thereon before final payment. If Contractor does not object in writing to Owner and Engineer that such part of the Work is not ready for separate operation by Owner, Engineer will finalize the list of items to be completed or corrected and will deliver such list to Owner and Contractor together with a written recommendation as to the division of responsibilities pending final payment between Owner and Contractor with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, utilities, insurance, warranties, and guarantees for that Ap pendix B Bid 25 53 Co nstruction Tra nsfer Sta tion Im provem ents City Issued Bid City of Fayetteville, Arkansas Fayetteville Transfer Station Improvements Baler Sump and Compost Pad Repairs SECTION 00700 – GENERAL CONDITIONS (continued) 00700-General Conditions 00700-46 November 2025 part of the Work, which will become binding upon Owner and Contractor at the time when Owner takes over such operation (unless they shall have otherwise agreed in writing and so informed Engineer). During such operation and prior to Substantial Completion of such part of the Work, Owner shall allow Contractor reasonable access to complete or correct items on said list and to complete other related Work. 3. No occupancy or separate operation of part of the Work will be accomplished prior to compliance with the requirements of Paragraph 5.02I in respect of property insurance. 14.07 FINAL INSPECTION: A. Upon written notice from Contractor that the Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete, Engineer will make a final inspection with Owner, Engineer, and Contractor and will notify Contractor in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective. Contractor shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to remedy such deficiencies. 14.08 FINAL APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT: A. After Contractor has completed all such corrections to the satisfaction of Engineer and delivered all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents, and other documents all as required by the Contract Documents, and after Engineer has indicated that the Work is acceptable (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 14.11), Contractor may make application for final payment following the procedure for progress payments.

The Contractor further acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the character, quality, and quantity of surface and subsurface materials to be encountered from inspecting the site and from evaluating any information on subsurface and physical conditions provided by the Owner. Any failure by the Contractor to acquaint himself with all the available information will not relieve him from responsibility for properly estimating the difficulty or cost of successfully performing the Work. Neither the Owner nor the Engineer assumes responsibility for any conclusion or interpretation made by the Contractor based on the information made available by the Owner or the Engineer. 3. The Contractor shall be responsible for the notification of utility location services, including Arkansas 811 and other utilities location services not specifically listed, sufficiently in advance of excavation activities to allow for the field location of any underground utilities and structures. The Arkansas 811 telephone number is 1-800-482-8998. A minimum of 48 hours prior notification is required. D. Responsibility for Utility Properties and Service 1. The Drawings show known utilities and structures adjacent to or to be encountered in the Work. The locations shown are taken from existing records and the best information available from existing plans; however, it is expected that there may be some discrepancies and omissions in the locations and quantities of utilities and structures shown. This information is shown only for the Contractor’s convenience, and neither the Owner nor the Engineer assumes any responsibility as to its accuracy or completeness. The Contractor shall make every effort to locate all underground utilities and structures by prospecting in advance of excavation activities. 2.

In the event of interruption to domestic water, sanitary sewer, storm drain, or other utility services because of accidental breakage due to construction operations, the Contractor shall promptly notify the proper authority, cooperate with said authority in restoration of service as promptly as possible, and bear all costs of repair. In no event shall interruption of any public or franchised utility service be allowed unless the owner of the utility grants prior approval. 8. Replace at Contractor’s expenses any existing utilities or structures removed or damaged during construction, unless the Contract Documents indicate otherwise. 9. Where existing utility lines or structures are so located as to physically conflict with permanent structures to be constructed under this Contract, the conflicting utility line or structure shall be permanently relocated. Such relocations shall be considered as required by this Contract. 10. Give immediate notice to the Engineer, the Owner, and the owner of the utility (where applicable) when a physical conflict or interference is determined to exist; and then obtain approval to relocate such utility or to discontinue service therein from the Engineer and the owner of the utility. The owner of the utility shall have the right to do all work required to discontinue, relocate, and replace interfering utilities and charge the Contractor for all costs thereof. When approved by the Engineer and the owner of the utility, all work required to discontinue, relocate, and replace interfering utilities may be done by the Contractor. All such discontinuance, relocation, and replacement shall be accomplished in accordance with all requirements of the owner of the utility. 11. When notified by the Contractor that an interference or conflict has been determined to exist, the Engineer will determine whether such interference shall be considered as required by construction or as incidental to construction. 12. Where existing utility lines or structures are so located as to interfere with the Contractor's prosecution of the Work, but do not physically conflict with permanent structures to be constructed under this Contract; then any modification, alteration, or relocation of interfering utility, either permanent or temporary, shall be accomplished at the expense of the Contractor. E. Interfering Structures 1. Take necessary precautions to prevent damage to existing structures whether on the surface, aboveground, or underground. An attempt has been made to show major structures on the Drawings. While the information has been compiled from the best available sources, its completeness and accuracy cannot be guaranteed, and it is presented as a guide to avoid known possible difficulties.

Where existing structures must be removed to conduct the Work properly, or are damaged during the Work, they shall be restored at the Contractor's own expense to at least their original condition and to the satisfaction of the Engineer. 3. The Contractor may, with the approval of the Engineer and without additional compensation, remove and replace in a condition as good as or better than original, any small interfering structures such as fences and signposts that interfere with the Contractor's operations. F. Field Relocation 1. During the progress of the Work, minor relocations of the Work may be necessary that do not require changes in the Contract time or price. Make such relocations only at the direction of the Engineer (by Field Order). If existing structures are encountered that will prevent construction as shown, notify the Engineer before continuing with the Work in order that the Engineer may make such field revisions as necessary to avoid conflict with the existing structures. If the Contractor fails to notify the Engineer when an existing structure is encountered and proceeds with the Work despite this interference, the Contractor shall be responsible for any damage that may occur. G. Land Monuments 1. Preserve or replace any existing federal, state, county, city, or private land monuments encountered. A land surveyor, licensed in the state where the project is located, shall replace damaged or missing monuments at the Contractor's expense. 1.04 PAYMENT PROCEDURES A.

H. Furnish a delivery ticket for ready mixed concrete to the Engineer as each truck arrives. Each ticket shall provide a printed record of the weight of cement and each aggregate as batched individually. Use the type of indicator that returns for zero punch or returns to zero after a batch is discharged. Clearly indicate the weight of fine and coarse aggregate, cement and water in each batch, the quantity delivered, the time any water is added, and the numerical sequence of the delivery. Show the time of day batched and time of discharge from the truck. I. Temperature Mixing Time Control 1. In cold weather (see paragraph 3.07.D) maintain the as-mixed temperature of the concrete and concrete temperatures at the time of placement in the forms as indicated in Table 2. 2. If water or aggregate has been heated, combine water with aggregate in the mixer before cement is added. Do not add cement to mixtures of water and aggregate when the temperature of the mixture is greater than 90°F. 3. In hot weather, cool ingredients before mixing to maintain temperature of the concrete below the maximum placing temperature of 90°F. If necessary, substitute well-crushed ice for all or part of the mixing water. 4.

Concrete mix showing either poor cohesion or poor coating of the coarse aggregate with paste shall be remixed. If this does not correct the condition, the concrete shall be rejected. If the slump is within the allowable limit, but excessive bleeding, poor workability, or poor finishability are observed, changes in the concrete mix shall be obtained only by adjusting one or more of the following: 1. The gradation of aggregate, 2. The proportion of fine and coarse aggregate, 3. The percentage of entrained air, within the allowable limits. B. Concrete for the Work shall provide a homogeneous structure which, when hardened, will have the required strength, durability, and appearance. Mixtures and workmanship shall be such that concrete surfaces, when exposed, will require no finishing. When concrete surfaces are stripped, the concrete when viewed in good lighting from 10 feet away shall be pleasing in appearance, and at 20 feet shall show no visible defects. 3.05 PLACING AND COMPACTING A. Placing 1. Verify that all the formwork completely encloses concrete to be placed and is securely braced prior to concrete placement. Remove ice, excess water, dirt, and other foreign materials from forms. Confirm that reinforcement and other embedded items are securely in place. Have a competent workman at the location of the pour who can assure that reinforcement and embedded items remain in designated locations while concrete is being placed. Add water to semiporous subgrades or forms to eliminate suction of water from the mix. Seal extremely porous subgrades in an approved manner. 2. Deposit concrete as near its final position as possible to avoid segregation due to rehandling or flowing. Place concrete continuously at a rate which ensures the concrete is being integrated with fresh plastic concrete. Do not deposit concrete which has partially hardened or has been contaminated by foreign materials or on concrete which has hardened sufficiently to cause formation of seams or planes of weakness within the section. If the section cannot be placed continuously, place construction joints as specified or as approved. 3. Pumping of concrete will be permitted. Use a mix design suitable for pumping and submit for approval. The maximum size of coarse aggregate used in the mix should be limited to one-third of the smallest inside diameter of the delivery system. 4. Remove temporary spreaders from forms when the spreader is no longer useful. Temporary spreaders may remain embedded in concrete only when made of galvanized metal or concrete and if prior approval has been obtained.

Do not place concrete for supported elements until concrete previously placed in the supporting element (columns, slabs, and/or walls) has reached adequate strength. Prepare previously placed and hardened concrete surfaces by cleaning using steel brushes and applying bonding agent in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. 6. Where surface mortar is to form the base of a finish, especially surfaces designated to be painted, work coarse aggregate back from forms with a suitable tool to bring the full surface of the mortar against the form. Prevent the formation of excessive surface voids. 7. Slabs a. After suitable bulkheads, screeds, and jointing materials have been positioned, the concrete shall be placed continuously between construction joints beginning at a bulkhead, edgeform, or corner. Each batch shall be placed into the edge of the previously placed concrete to avoid stone pockets and segregation. b. Avoid delays in casting. If there is a delay in casting, the concrete placed after the delay shall be thoroughly spaded and consolidated at the edge of that previously placed to avoid cold joints. Concrete shall then be brought to correct level and struck off with a straightedge. Bull floats or darbies shall be used to smooth the surface, leaving it free of humps or hollows. c. Where slabs are to be placed integrally with the walls below them, place the walls and compact as specified. Allow one (1) hour to pass between placement of the wall and the overlying slab to permit consolidation of the wall concrete. Keep the top surface of the wall moist so as to prevent cold joints. 8. Formed Concrete a. Place concrete in forms using tremie tubes and taking care to prevent segregation. Bottom of tremie tubes shall preferably be in contact with the concrete already placed. Do not permit concrete to drop freely more than 4-feet. Place concrete for walls in 12- inch to 24-inch lifts, keeping the surface horizontal. If plasticized concrete is used, the maximum lift thickness may be increased to 7 feet and the maximum free fall of concrete shall not exceed 15 feet. B. Compacting 1. Consolidate concrete by vibration, puddling, spading, rodding, or forking so that concrete is thoroughly worked around reinforcement, embedded items, and openings, and into corners of forms. Puddling, spading, etc. shall be continuously performed along with vibration of the placement to eliminate air or stone pockets which may cause honeycombing, pitting, or planes of weakness.

All concrete shall be placed and compacted with mechanical vibrators. The number, type, and size of the units shall be approved by the Engineer in advance of placing operations. No concrete shall be ordered until sufficient approved vibrators (including standby units in working order) are on the job. 3. A minimum frequency of 7,000 revolutions per minute is required for mechanical vibrations. Insert vibrators and withdraw at points from 18 inches to 30 inches apart. At each insertion, vibrate sufficiently to consolidate concrete, generally from 5 to 15 seconds. Do not over vibrate so as to segregate. Keep a spare vibrator on the site during concrete placing operations. 4. Concrete Slabs: Concrete for slabs less than 8 inches thick shall be consolidated with vibrating screeds; slabs 8 inches to 12 inches thick shall be compacted with internal vibrators and (optionally) with vibrating screeds. Vibrators shall always be placed into concrete vertically and shall not be laid horizontally or laid over. 5. Walls and Columns: Internal vibrators (rather than form vibrators) shall be used unless otherwise approved by the Engineer. In general, for each vibrator needed to melt down the batch at the point of discharge, one or more additional vibrators must be used to densify, homogenize, and perfect the surface. The vibrators shall be inserted vertically at regular intervals, through the fresh concrete, and slightly into the previous lift, if any. 6. Amount of Vibration: Vibrators are to be used to consolidate properly placed concrete but shall not be used to move or transport concrete in the forms. Vibration shall continue until: a. Frequency returns to normal b. Surface appears liquefied, flattened, and glistening c. Trapped air ceases to rise d. Coarse aggregate has blended into surface but has not disappeared. 3.06 CURING AND PROTECTION A. Protect all concrete work against injury from the elements and defacements of any nature during construction operations. B. Curing Methods 1. Curing Methods for Concrete Surfaces: Cure concrete to retain moisture and maintain specified temperatures at the surface for a minimum of three (3) days after placement. Curing methods to be used are as follows: a. Water Curing: Keep entire concrete surface wet by ponding, continuous sprinkling, or covered with saturated burlap. Begin wet cure as soon as concrete attains an initial set and maintain wet cure over 24 hours a day.

Sheet Material Curing: Cover entire surface with sheet material. Securely anchor sheeting to prevent wind and air from lifting the sheeting or entrapping air under the sheet. Place and secure sheet as soon as initial concrete set occurs. c. Liquid Membrane Curing: Apply over the entire concrete surface except for surfaces to receive additional concrete. Curing compound shall not be placed on any concrete surface where additional concrete is to be placed, where surface coatings are to be used, or where the concrete finish requires an integral floor product. Curing compound shall be applied as soon as the free water on the surface has disappeared and no water sheen is visible, but not after the concrete is dry or when the curing compound can be absorbed into the concrete. Application shall be in compliance with the manufacturer's recommendations. 2. Specified applications of curing methods. a. Slabs for Water Containment Structures: Water curing only. b. Slabs on Grade and Footings (not used to contain water): Water curing, sheet material curing, or liquid membrane curing. c.

During periods of cold weather, concrete shall be protected to provide continuous warm, moist curing (with supplementary heat when required) for a total of at least 350 degree-days of curing. a. Degree-days are defined as the total number of 24 hour periods multiplied by the weighted average daily air temperature at the surface of the concrete (e.g., 5 days at an average 70°F = 350 degree-days). b. To calculate the weighted average daily air temperature, sum hourly measurements of the air temperature in the shade at the surface of the concrete taking any measurement less than 50°F as 0°F. Divide the sum thus calculated by 24 to obtain the weighted average temperature for that day. 6. Salt, manure, or other chemicals shall not be used for protection. 7. At the end of the protection period, allow the concrete to cool gradually to the ambient temperature. If water curing has been used, the concrete shall not be exposed to temperatures below those shown in Table 3 unless at least 24 hours has elapsed since water curing has been terminated. 8. During periods not defined as cold weather, but when freezing temperatures are expected or occur, protect concrete surfaces from freezing for the first 24 hours after placing. E. Hot Weather Concreting 1. For this Specification, "hot weather" is defined as any combination of high air temperatures, low relative humidity and wind velocity which produces a rate of evaporation as estimated in ACI 305.1, approaching or exceeding 0.2 pounds per square foot per hour (lb/ft²-hr).

A "set" of test cylinders consists of six (6) cylinders: three (3) to be broken at three (3) days and their strengths averaged, and three (3) to be used to verify strength after 3 days if 3 days breaks are low. 2. Cylinders should be capped before testing to maintain a uniform load distribution. Cylinders are general capped with sulfur mortar in compliance with ASTM C617 or neoprene pad caps in compliance with ASTM C1231. 3. When the average 3 day compressive strength of the cylinders in any set falls below the required compressive strength, proportions, water content, or temperature conditions shall be changed to achieve the required strengths. B. The Contractor shall cooperate in the making of tests by allowing free access to the work for the selection of samples; providing an insulated closed curing box for specimens; affording protection to the specimens against injury or loss through Contractor’s operations; and furnishing material and labor required for the purpose of taking concrete cylinder samples. Curing boxes shall be acceptable to the Engineer. C. Slump tests will be made in the field immediately prior to placing the concrete. Such tests shall be made in accordance with ASTM C143. If the slump is greater than the specified range, the concrete shall be rejected. If slump test resulted in a shear slump failure, the slump test should be repeated. If shear slump failure re-occurs the concrete batch is to be rejected. D. Slump flow tests will be made in the field immediately prior to placing Self Compacting Concrete SCC) in compliance with ASTM C1611. Slump flow spread average diameters should not exceed 30 inches.

The work of cutting and testing the cores will be in accordance with the Plans. 3.10 FAILURE TO MEET REQUIREMENTS A. Should the strengths shown by the test specimens made and tested in compliance with the previous provisions fall below the values given in Table 1, the Engineer shall have the right to require changes in proportions outlined to apply to the remainder of the Work. Furthermore, the Engineer shall have the right to require additional curing on those portions of the structure represented by the test specimens which failed. The cost of such additional curing shall be at the Contractor's expense. In the event that such additional curing does not give the strength required, as evidenced by core and/or load test, the Engineer shall have the right to require strengthening or replacement of those portions of the structure which fail to develop the required strength. The cost of all such core borings and/or load tests and any strengthening or concrete replacement required because strengths of test specimens are below that specified, shall be entirely at the expense of the Contractor. In such cases of failure to meet the strength requirements the Contractor and Engineer shall confer to determine what adjustment, if any, can be made in compliance with the subsections titled "Strength" and "Failure to Meet Strength Requirements" of ASTM C94. The “purchaser” referred to in C94 is the Contractor in this Specification. B. When the tests on control specimens of concrete fall below the required strength, the Engineer will permit check tests for strengths to be made by means of typical cores drilled from the structure in compliance with ASTM C42 and C39. In the case of failure of the cores, the Engineer, in addition to other resources, may require, at the Contractor's expense, load tests on any one of the slabs, beams, piles, caps, and columns in which such concrete was used. Test need not be made until concrete has aged 60 days. C. Should the strength of test cylinders fall below 60 percent (60%) of the required minimum 7-day strength, the concrete shall be rejected and shall be removed and replaced. 3.11 PATCHING A. As soon as the forms have been stripped and the concrete surfaces exposed, fins and other projections shall be removed; recesses left by the removal of form ties shall be filled; and surface defects, which do not impair structural strength, shall be repaired. Clean all exposed surfaces and adjoining work stained by leakage of concrete, to approval of the Engineer. B. Immediately after removal of forms remove plugs and break off metal ties. Holes are then to be promptly filled upon stripping as follows: Moisten the hole with water, followed by a 1/16-inch brush coat of neat cement slurry mixed to the consistency of a heavy paste. Immediately plug the hole with a 1 to 1.5 mixture of cement and concrete sand mixed slightly damp to the touch (just short of "balling"). Hammer the grout into the hole until dense, and an excess of paste appears on the surface on the form of a spiderweb. Trowel smooth with heavy pressure. Avoid burnishing. C. When patching exposed surfaces, the same source of cement and sand as used in the parent concrete shall be employed. Adjust color if necessary, by addition of proper amounts of white cement. Rub lightly with a fine Carborundum stone at an age of one (1) to five (5) days if Ap pendix B Bid 25 53 Co nstruction Tra nsfer Sta tion Im provem ents City Issued Bid City of Fayetteville, Arkansas Fayetteville Transfer Station Improvements Baler Sump and Compost Pad Repairs SECTION 03300 CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE (continued) 03300-Cast-in-Place Concrete 03300-19 November 2025 necessary to bring the surface down with the parent concrete.
