CONCRETE QUALITY: The working stresses for the design of this structure are based on the specified minimum ultimate 28 day compressive strength of the concrete, or on the specified minimum ultimate compressive strength at the earlier age at which the concrete may be expected to receive its full load. The strengths of concrete at specified ages for which all parts of the structure were designed, are shown on the plans. All concrete exposed to the weather, shall nave a water content not to exceed 6 gal. per sack of Portland Cement. DETERMINATION OF STRENGTH: * Proportions of the materials and water content shall be established 3-4 | BB 0014760 J by tests which shell be made In advance of the beginning of operations, using the consistencies suitable for the work and in accordance with the "Standard Method of Making Compression tests if Concrete" (A.S.T.H. Serial Designation; C39-39). These tests shall be nude and certified by a testing laboratory approved by the Architects and Engineers and paid by the contractor. A curve, representing the relation between the water content and the average 28 day compressive strength or earlier stiength at which the concrete is to receive its full working load, shall be established by at least four test speclments. Amount of water used in concrete, for the structure as determined from the curve, shall correspond to a strength which is 20 per cent greater than that called for on the plans, for concrete of a compressive strength less than 2,300 lb. per sq. in. and 15 per cent greater for concrete of a compressive strength of 2,500 lb. per sq. inch or more. No substitutions shall be made in the materials used on the work without additional tests in accordance herewith to show that the water content per sack of cement as established by Lab oratory Test be changed. FOZZOLITH: Exposed concrete work, grade beams, etc., on the exterior walls of the building shall have Included in the concrete an approved cement dis persing agent. The concrete shall be designed in accordance with the A.C.l. standard recommendation practice for concrete mix (ACX 613-44) normal Portland Cement shall be used and the dispersing agent shall be of the type which reduces the water cement ratio law. The strengths, slumps and water-content ratio shall be as called for elsewhere in the specifications. The top size aggregate with the Pozzolith shall not exceed 3/4".

TESTS ON CONCRETE; During the progress of the work, compression tests shall be mace in accordance with the "Standard Method of Making and Storing Compression Test Specimens of Concrete in the Field" (A.S.T.M. Serial Designaticn: C31-39). Each test shall be made on one laboratory control cylinder and one field control cylinder. , There shall be at least one test for each strength of concrete placed on any one day and at least one test for each 50 cu. yard of concrete or fraction thereof in the job. The standard age of the test shall be 28 days, but 7 day tests may be used provided that the relation between the 7 and 28 day strengths of the concrete is established by test for the materials and proportions used. In all cases where the average strength of the laboratory control cylinders shown by these tests for any portion of the structure falls below the minimum ultimate compressive strengths called for on the plans, the Architects shall have the right to order a change in the mix or in the water content for the remaining portion of the structure. In cases where the average strength of the cylinders cured on the job fall below the required strength, the Architects or Engineers shall have the right to portions of the building so effected. 1. .. : NOTE: See "General Statement" Page 3 - 1 of this specification.
