D. Cure formed and unformed concrete for at least seven days as follows:

SPEC WRITER: SELECT CURING METHOD(S) FROM SUBPARAGRAPHS BELOW. IF

MOISTURE CURING IS RETAINED, SELECT OPTIONS IN FIRST SUBPARAGRAPH

BELOW.

SPEC WRITER: RETAIN SUBPARAGRAPH ABOVE OR BELOW. SUBPARAGRAPH

ABOVE IS AN EXAMPLE THAT PRODUCES MORE FREQUENT TESTING THAN

BELOW. BELOW IS TESTING FREQUENCY REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH ACI 301.

2. Testing Frequency: At least one composite sample for each 100 cu. yd. (76 cu.
