Unit Price Work. 11.9.1. Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work, initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determminations.of the actual quantities and classifica- tions of Unit Price Work performed by CONTRACTOR will be made by ENGINEER in accordance with paragraph 9.10. 11.9.2.

CONTRACTOR shall promptly; without cost to OWNER and in accordance with OWNER's written instructions: (i) correct such defec- tive Work: or. if it has been rejected by OWNER. remove it from the site and replace it with Work that is not defective, and (ii) satisfactorily correct or remove and replace any damage'to other Work or the work of others resulting therefrom. If CONTRACTOR does not promptly comply. with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency. where delay would cause serious -risk of loss or damage, OWNER may have the defective Work corrected or the rejected Work removed and replaced, and all claims, costs, losses and damages caused by or resulting from such re- moval and replacement (including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others) will be paid by CONTRACTOR. - 13.12.2. In special circumstances where a particular item of equipment is placed in continuous service before Substan- tial Completion of all the Work, the correction period for that item may start to run from an earlier date if so provided in the Specifications or by Written Amendment. 13.12.3. Where defective:. Work (and damage .to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected, removed or replaced under this paragraph 13.12. the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work will be extended for an additional period of one year after such correction or re- moval and replacement has been satisfactorily completed. Accepmnce of Defective Wort 13.13. If. instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work. OWNER (and. prior to ENGI- NEER'S recommendation of final payment, also ENGINEER) prefers to accept it. OWNER may do so.

Work subject to the following: . 14.10.1.� OWNER at many . time may. request CON- TRACTOR 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 CON- TRACTOR agrees that such part of the Work is substan- tially complete, CONTRACTORwill certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that such part of -the Work is substan- tially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a certif- - icate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work.

Admixtures shall be added to the mixing water by means of a mechanical dispenser which will accurately meter the additive throughout the mix water cycle. The dispenser shall be constructed and connected so that the Inspector can make ready determination of the amount of admixture entering the mixing water. 2. Air Entraining Agent: Air -entraining agent, when specified or approved, shall comply with the requirements of AASHTO M 154. The Contractor shall submit evidence based on tests made in a recognized laboratory to show that the air -entraining admixture conforms to the requirements of AASHTO M 154 for 7 and 28 day compressive strengths and resistance to freezing and thawing, except as provided in the following paragraph. Tests for bleeding, bond strength, and volume change will not be required. A recognized laboratory is any State highway, FHWA, or cement concrete laboratory regularly inspected by the Cement and Concrete Reference Laboratory of the National Bureau of Standards. Tests may be made upon samples taken from a quantity submitted by the Contractor for use on the project or upon samples submitted and certified by the Manufacturer as representative of the admixture to be supplied. TS -301-5 Copyright ® 1996 Crafton, lull & Associates, Inc.. An exception to the requirements in the preceding paragraph is the case of admixtures which are manufactured by neutralizing Vinsol resin with caustic soda (sodium hydroxide). When the Contractor proposes to use such an admixture he shall submit a certification concerning the admixture in the following form: "This is to certify that the product (trade name) as manufactured and sold by the (company) is an aqueous solution of Vinsol resin that has been neutralized with sodium hydroxide. The ratio of sodium hydroxide to Vinsol resin is one part of sodium hydroxide to (number) parts of Vinsol resin. The percentage of solids based on the residue dried at 105°C is (number). No other additive or chemical agent is present in this solution." When the Contractor proposes to use an. air -entraining admixture which has been previously approved, he shall submit a certification stating that the admixture is the same as that previously approved. If an admixture offered for use is essentially the same (with only minor differences in concentration) as another previously approved material, a certification will be required stating that the product is essentially the same as the approved admixture and that no other admixture or chemical agent is present. 3. Retarding Agent: In order to permit the retarding of the set and extend the finishing time of concrete, a retarding agent shall be used when specified on the Plans or may be used when permission for its use is requested by the Contractor and such permission is given by the Engineer. The retarding agent shall be a Type B or Type D admixture as defined in AASHTO M 194. The Contractor shall support his request with a Manufacturer's certified formulation of the proposed agent and with sufficient evidence that the proposed agent has given satisfactory results on other similar work. Permission to use the agent may be withdrawn at any time by the Engineer when satisfactory results are not being obtained. The agent shall be free of chlorides. When air -entrained concrete is specified, the air -entraining agent and the retarding agent shall be so incorporated that the air content of the concrete shall fall •'i within the percentage range stipulated in the specifications. When air -entrained concrete is not specified, the concrete to which the retarding agent has been added shall have an air content not greater than 3 percent. TS -301-6 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. On small jobs, storage in the open may be permitted by written authorization from the Engineer, in which case a raised platform and ample waterproof covering shall be provided. 301-2.3 Seven classes of concrete are provided for in these specifications, 4 classes of non air -entrained concrete and 3 classes of air -entranced concrete.

Fly ash, if approved in writing by the Engineer, conforming to ASTM C 618 may be substituted for a part of the type II Cement not to exceed 120 pounds per cubic yard, and shall be included in the calculation of the water -cement ratio. Ninety -day test specimens will be required for the trial batch. For construction purposes, the sampling and testing will comply with standard procedures for sampling and testing. B. Trial Batches: Mix designs proposed by the Engineer or the Contractor for all Class S(AE) concrete shall be tested by trial batches using the specific materials, including admixtures that are intended for use on the job. The Contractor shall prepare a batch of at least 2 cubic yards. This batch shall be sampled and tested by the Engineer for compliance with the specifications for slump, air content, and compressive strength. A mix design may be approved with respect to compressive strength when at least two test cylinders show the minimum required strength value at any age between 7 days and 28 days, inclusive. In lieu of the above procedure, the Contractor may prepare trial batches in a laboratory in accordance with AASHTO T 126. These trial batches shall be accomplished by the Contractor under the observation of the Engineer. Sampling and testing will be conducted by the Engineer. With the approval of the Engineer, the Contractor may retain an independent laboratory or a Registered Professional Engineer to prepare and test trial batches. In this case, trial batch information and laboratory results shall be furnished to the Engineer along with a statement certifying that the testing was performed in accordance with the Specifications. All trial batches required by these Specifications or developed at the option of the Contractor shall be accomplished by the Contractor and shall be subject to the review and approval of the Engineer. C. Compressive strengths for all classes of concrete will be determined from test cylinders made in accordance with AASHTO T 23. If the strength TS -301-11 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. required for the class of concrete being produced is not obtained with the minimum cement content specified, additional cement shall be used at no extra cost to the Owner. When air -entrained concrete is specified, the air -entrainment shall be accomplished by adding to the mixing water the proper amount of air -entraining agent in solution. The Contractor shall determine the amount of admixture required to produce an air content within the range specified. The amount of air entraining agent shall be adjusted by the Contractor during production as necessary to keep the air content within the range specified. D. Fly Ash: Fly ash may be used, if approved in writing by the Engineer, as a partial replacement not exceeding 25 percent by weight for the cement in all classes of concrete except Class B or B(AE) concrete. Class B or B(AE) concrete shall meet the requirements specified in 401-2.4(B) above. Mixtures with fly ash shall meet the same requirements as mixtures without fly ash. Fly ash will not be allowed as a substitute for high early strength or blended cements. Class F fly ash shall not be used in bridge deck concrete placed between October 15 and April 1. When fly ash is used, the total weight of both cement and fly ash will be used in design calculations. When the Contractor elects to use fly ash as a partial replacement for the cement in Class S or Class S(AE) concrete, the proposed mix design shall be tested by the preparation and testing of trial batches in accordance with 301-2.4(B) above. Trial batches will not be required for Class A or Class A(AE) concrete. During the progress of work, concrete test specimens will be made by an approved testing laboratory. Slump will be determined using AASHTO T 119. Air content will be determined using AASHTO T 152. . Compressive strength specimens will be made in accordance with AASHTO T 23 and tested in accordance with AASHTO T 22. Specimens for determining when forms may be removed, when a structure may be put in service, or when concrete piling may be driven will be cured, as early as practicable, in the same manner as the concrete in the structure and in accordance with AASHTO T 23. TS -301-12 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. Falsework which cannot be founded on a satisfactory footing shall be supported on piling which shall be spaced, driven, and removed as specified in the Contractor's falsework details. 301-2.13 FORMS: A. Standard Forms: Forms shall be mortar -tight and of sufficient rigidity to prevent distortion due to the pressure of the concrete and other loads incident to the construction operations. Forms shall be constructed and maintained so as to prevent warping and the opening of joints due to shrinkage of the lumber. The forms shall be substantial and unyielding and shall be so designed that the finished concrete will conform to the proper dimensions and contours. The design of the forms shall take into account the effect of vibration of concrete as it is placed. Forms for exposed surfaces shall be made of dressed lumber or plywood of uniform thickness, steel, or other approved materials which will provide a smooth surface, and shall be mortar -tight. Forms shall have a 3/4" fillet at all sharp corners unless otherwise directed. In the case of projections, such as girders and copings, forms shall be given a bevel or draft to insure easy removal. Metal snap -ties within the forms shall be so constructed as to permit their removal to a depth of at least 1" from the face of the concrete. Fittings for metal snap -ties shall be of such design that, upon removal, the cavities which are left will be of the smallest possible size. Metal inserts or anchorages within the forms shall be so constructed as to permit their removal to a depth of at least 1" from the face of the concrete or be covered by being embedded a minimum of 1" in the concrete. In case ordinary wire ties are permitted, all wires, upon removal of the forms, shall be cut back at least 1/4" from the face of the concrete. All cavities shall be filled with cement mortar and the surface left sound, smooth, even, and uniform in color. Forms shall be set and maintained true to the line designated until the concrete is sufficiently hardened. Before depositing new concrete on or against concrete which has hardened, the forms shall be re -tightened. Forms shall remain in place for the periods specified in Subsection 301-2.14. When forms appear to be unsatisfactory in any way, either TS -301-24 Copyright © 1996 Grafton, lull & Associates, Inc. before or during the placing of concrete, the Engineer shall order the work stopped until the defects have been corrected. The shape, strength, rigidity, watertightness, and surface smoothness of re -used forms shall be maintained at all times. Any warped or bulged lumber must be re -sized before being re -used. For narrow walls and columns, where the bottom of the module is inaccessible, the lower portions of the forms shall be so constructed to facilitate cleaning out of extraneous material immediately before placing the concrete. Forms shall be cleaned before being set to line and grade and shall be oiled prior to placing reinforcing steel in the vicinity of the forms. Materials or methods used in oiling the forms shall not result in the discoloration of the concrete. In lieu of the conventional stationary forms, concrete parapet rail may be constructed by using an extrusion machine or other equipment specifically designed for constructing cast -in -place concrete parapet rail, provided the finished barrier is true to line and grade and the concrete is properly consolidated. B. Permanent Steel Deck Forms: An approved type of galvanized steel form, complying with the requirements shown on the Plans and these Specifications, may be used as an alternate to conventional removable forms for forming the bridge deck between the exterior beams or girders. These forms shall be designed to provide not less than the minimum concrete cover shown on the Plans for all reinforcing bars in the bottom of the slabs. The effective design depth of slab shall be maintained over the entire area of the deck. Provision shall be made to provide encasement of top flanges of beams or girders in compression except where shear connectors are provided. Detailed plans of proposed permanent steel deck forms shall be submitted to and approved by the Engineer before work of forming the bridge deck is started. The approval of the Contractor's Plans shall not be considered as relieving the Contractor of any responsibility for the results obtained by the use of these approved Plans. Construction shall be in accordance with the approved Plans. All material and elements of the permanent steel deck form units shall be fabricated from steel conforming to ASTM A 446 (Grades A through E) having a coating class of G 165 according to ASTM A 525. Thickness TS -301-25 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, lull & Associates, Inc. and grade of form sheets and form supports shall be designated on the Shop Drawings. In no case shall thickness be less than 22 gauge for sheets and 16 gauge for form supports. Permanent steel forms shall be designed on the basis of the dead load of the form, reinforcement, and the plastic concrete plus 50 psf for construction loads. Unit working stresses shall be in accordance with the standard specifications for construction loads and the unit stress in the steel sheet shall be not more than 0.725 of the specified minimum yield strength of the material furnished but not to exceed 36,000 psi. Maximum deflection shall be calculated using the weight of plastic concrete, reinforcement, and forms, or 120 psf, whichever is greater. Maximum deflection shall not exceed 1/180 of the form span or 1/2" whichever is less. The form span for design and deflection shall be the clear distance between supports plus 2", but not less than the clear distance between the flanges of the supporting beams less 4" measured parallel to the form flutes. Physical design properties shall be computed in accordance with requirements of the latest edition of AISI Specifications for the Design of Cold -Formed Steel Structural Members. All reinforcement shall have a minimum concrete cover of 1 inch. Bars in the bottom layer of the main reinforcement shall be approximately centered over the valleys of the forms when necessary to achieve the minimum 1" concrete cover. The distance from the top of the slab to the bottom layer of main slab reinforcement shall be not less than that shown on the Plans. Permanent steel forms should not be used in panels where longitudinal slab construction joints are located between stringers. All forms shall be installed in accordance with detailed fabrication plans submitted to the Engineer for approval. The fabrication plans shall clearly indicate locations and methods of attachment where the forms are supported by steel beam flanges subject to tensile stresses and without shear connectors. Form sheets shall not be permitted to rest directly on the top of the stringer or floor beam flanges. Sheets shall be securely fastened to form supports and shall have a minimum bearing length of 1" at each end. Form supports shall be placed in direct contact with the flange or stringer or floor beam. All attachments shall be made by welds, bolts, clips, or other approved means. However, welding of form supports to flanges of TS -301-26 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. steels other than ASTM A 36, A 441, A 588, and A 572 of a weldable gradeand to those portions of a flange subject to tensile stresses shall not be permitted. Welding shall be accomplished by certified welders and in accordance with ANSI/AASHTO/AWS D1.5-88. Except that 1/8" fillet welds will be permitted. Provisions shall be made to keep the panels at an acceptable temperature before placement of concrete. Calcium Chloride or any other admixture containing chloride salts shall not be used in the concrete placed on permanent steel deck forms. After the deck concrete has been placed for a minimum of 2 days, the following inspection procedure shall be followed: The forms shall be tested for soundness of the concrete and bonding of the forms to the concrete by striking the form a sharp blow with a geologist hammer. As a minimum, the forms shall be struck at 10' intervals parallel to and 6" from the edge of the steel beam, and at 10' intervals along the centerline of each bay between the beams in an X pattern with those along the beams, and at random points on a semicircle or circle, as applicable, with approximately 2' radius from the above points. They shall be struck in other places as directed by the Engineer to define any suspicious or defective area. Areas where efflorescence is evident shall be thoroughly investigated. The Contractor shall furnish all facilities such as ladders, scaffolding, etc., that will provide for a thorough inspection of the forms. The striking of the forms shall be accomplished in such a manner and at a time that the sound is clearly audible. Properly bonded sheets attached to sound concrete will emit a clear rig when struck a sharp blow with a hammer. Honeycomb concrete and/or unbonded areas will give a different sound such as a thud or clatter. The forms shall be removed full width between beams whenever the Engineer suspects that honeycomb or unbonded areas exist so that the Engineer may make a visual examination of the concrete surface. Any defective concrete shall be repaired to match the adjacent concrete to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Where the use of the hammer as a testing device is neither practical nor feasible, the forms may be tested after the deck has been placed a minimum of 10 days using a rifle firing 22 caliber short special gallery type ammunition in lieu of the hammer. The angle of incidence between the TS -301-27 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. plane normal to the forms and the trajectory of the bullet shall be held to a minimum. If sheets are properly bonded to sound concrete, a very light dent will be made in the metal and the spelter coating will not be damaged. A plainly visible bright spot will remain around the dent. If a small void or slight honeycomb exists behind the form, a deep dent, with metal cracked in the bottom of dent, will result. If honeycomb exists, a clean hole approximately 1/4" in diameter will result. The actual depth of void can be seen when viewed through a transit or telescopic sights. Where this is the case, the form shall be removed full width between beams so that the Engineer may make a visual examination of the concrete surface. Any defective concrete shall be repaired to match the adjacent concrete to the satisfaction of the Engineer. The amount of sounding and form removal may be reduced at the Engineer's discretion, after a substantial amount of slab has been constructed and inspected, if the Contractor's methods of construction and the results of the inspections as outlined above indicate that sound concrete is being obtained throughout. If the Contractor varies his procedures significantly, the initial inspection procedure shall be used to verify that the new conditions are yielding desirable results. Any forms which must be removed because of unsatisfactory test results shall be removed by a metal saw or air -carbon -arc gouging with minimum damage to the concrete. The cut in the forms parallel t the corrugations shall be located in a non -horizontal lap section of the corrugation. The cuts parallel to the beam shall be through the supporting angles taking care not to damage the structural steel beams. All concrete which is found defective or is damaged in removing a section of the form for inspection shall be repaired to match the adjacent concrete in section and color. All repair work shall be completed to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Payment for forms will be made and fully covered under the unit price bid for superstructure concrete. No direct or additional payment of any kind will be made because of the use of these forms. Payment will be made for Class S(AE) concrete in place in the bridge decks on the basis of the TS -301-28 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, lull & Associates, Inc. thickness specified on the Plans not including any excess thickness used and not including any concrete in portions of haunches which may be omitted because of the use of these forms. 301-2.14 In the determination of the time for the removal of falsework and forms and the discontinuance of heating, consideration shall be given to the location and character of the structure, the weather and other conditions influencing the setting of the concrete, and the materials used in the mix. Removal of falsework and forms shall be in accordance with the following schedule: Minimum Strength Time Requirement Bottom Forms for Deck Slabs, 7 days Min. Spec. Beams, and Caps Top Slabs of RC Box Culverts 7 days 80% Spec. Forms for Columns and 24 hours N/A Vertical Walls Side Forms for Footings, 12 hours N/A Beams, and Caps Side Forms for Parapets, Median 6 hours N/A Barriers, and Curb Faces Forms on surfaces which will require a Class 2 finish in accordance with Subsection 301-2.18 shall be removed at the earliest time permitted under these Specifications in order to begin finishing operations. Forms and their supports shall not be removed without the approval of the Engineer. Supports shall be removed in such a manner as to permit the concrete to uniformly and gradually take the stresses due to its own weight. Methods of form removal likely to cause overstressing of or damage to the concrete shall not be used. TS -301-29 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. When the ambient temperature at the placement site is 85 degrees F. and rising, an approved retarding agent shall be required in all concrete used in bridge superstructures. A retarding agent will not be required in concrete used for bridge deck curb, parapet, railing, posts, sidewalks, or median treatment provided they are not placed monolithically with the deck itself. When the internal temperature of the plastic concrete in bridge decks reaches 85 degrees F., the Contractor shall take the necessary precautions to insure that the temperature of succeeding batches does not exceed 90 degrees F. Concrete batches with temperatures in excess of 90 degrees F. will be rejected. This method used to control the concrete temperature shall be approved in writing by the Engineer. The temperature of the plastic concrete shall be determined immediately prior to its being deposited in the forms by inserting a thermometer to a depth consistent with the capabilities of the thermometer being used to obtain a true reading. Prior to beginning placement, the Contractor shall insure that sufficient materials, labor, and equipment are available during placement to implement the previously approved cooling process. The maximum mix temperature for all Class B and B(AE) concrete at time of placing shall be 75 degrees F. This requirement will be strictly adhered to and any concrete delivered to the job site which does not meet this provision will be rejected. Methods used to meet this requirement shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval. Methods that may be used to meet this provision include using ice in the mixing water, storing cement and aggregates in cool or shaded locations, and/or watering down of coarse aggregates. Cooling by watering of fine aggregates will not be allowed. No concrete shall be placed unless the temperature of the concrete is more than 50 degrees F. when placed. If heating of the ingredients is necessary to meet this criterion, it shall be accomplished by a method such as dry heat or steam and not by direct flame. Water shall not be heated to more than 180 degrees F., and shall be combined with the aggregate before the addition of cement. Frozen aggregates may not be used. After concrete is placed, it shall be protected by insulated forms, blankets, enclosing and heating, and/or any other method approved by the TS -301-30 Copyright © 1996 Crafton, Tull & Associates, Inc. Engineer which will maintain the temperature adjacent to the concrete at a minimum of 50 degrees F. for at least 5 days. For Class B and B(AE) concrete, forms shall remain in place 4.days after placing any time the temperature is below 40 degrees F. or forecast to drop below 40 degrees F. In addition, exposed top surfaces of the concrete shall be protected with an insulated blanket. The surface of the concrete shall not be saturated when it is exposed to freezing air temperatures. The Contractor shall have available and ready for immediate use sufficient materials and equipment for maintaining the temperature of the concrete as required above. Concrete that has been frozen or damaged due to weather conditions shall be removed and replaced by the Contractor at no cost to the Owner. A.
