About this file

This is a technical specification document (Section 720) for Portland cement concrete work, applicable to the OnCall Sidewalk & Catch Basin project in Clarendon, South Carolina. The specification establishes requirements for the construction of concrete curbs, gutters, curb-and-gutter combinations, sidewalks, driveways, and medians to be installed in a single course on prepared subgrades. The work includes placement of reinforcing steel where indicated on project plans. Materials specified include Class 2500 Portland cement concrete conforming to Section 701 standards, expansion joint materials meeting Section 702.2.2.1 requirements, and reinforcing steel conforming to ASTM A 706, Grade 60 specifications per Section 703. All equipment must be present on-site, in acceptable working condition, and approved by the Resident Construction Engineer (RCE) prior to work commencement.

Construction requirements mandate thorough compaction of subgrades to create smooth, firmly compacted surfaces with moisture present at the time of concrete placement. In areas where standard rollers cannot be practically used, vibratory hand compactors must be employed for compaction. The RCE maintains authority to direct removal and replacement of concrete that settles or cracks after placement, with such corrective work performed without additional compensation to the contractor. All work must conform to dimensions, cross-sections, notes, lines, and grades shown on the project plans or as established by the RCE.
