Description

This specification is a Reference Specification that the Architect/Engineer can make applicable to a construction project by citing it in the Project Specifications. The Architect/Engineer supplements the provisions of this Reference Specification as needed by designating or specifying individual project requirements. The document covers materials and proportioning of concrete; reinforcement and prestressing reinforcement; production, placing, finishing, and curing of concrete; formwork design and construction; and shotcrete. Methods of treatment of joints and embedded items, repair of surface defects, and finishing of formed and unformed surfaces are specified. Separate sections are devoted to architectural concrete, mass concrete, and internal and external post-tensioned prestressed concrete. Provisions governing testing, evaluation, and acceptance of concrete as well as acceptance of the structure are included.

Keywords: admixtures; aggregates; air entrainment; architectural concrete; compressive strength; consolidation; curing; density; durability; evaluation; environmental concrete; finishes; floors; formwork (construction); grouting; inspection; joints; mass concrete; mixture proportioning; posttensioned prestressed concrete; prestressing reinforcement; reinforcing steels; reshoring; shoring; subgrades; tolerances.
