2. In batch mixing operations, follow the manufacturer’s recommendations concerning the order of charging the mixer with the various ingredients.

Monitor the as-cast unit weight at the point of placement. Allowance should be made for any additional mixing that may result from the method of placement, such as mechanical or pneumatic pumping, and for any unit weight changes that may result from these methods.

3. Make provisions for continuous mixing operations for reasonably uniform and continuous rate of addition of mix components at appropriate positions in the mixing machine, and in the correct ratio, to assure uniformity and the specified limiting requirements at the point of placement.

4. Alternative methods for batching and mixing LDCC will be considered by and must be acceptable to the Engineer.

3.03 PLACING LOW-DENSITY CELLULAR CONCRETE

A. General Requirements: Completely fill void space outside of the carrier pipe with LDCC. Provide air release piping in the crown of the casing to allow displaced air and air lost from LDCC to escape and be replaced with LDCC.

Place LDCC in accordance with approved submittals.

B. Accomplish backfilling of the annular space between the pipe and the casing by placing LDCC in one or more stages (lifts). Monolithic placements (one stage) may be acceptable, demonstrate that placement techniques will not induce movement of the pipe, pipe overstressing, pipe and/or pipe coating overheating, or excessive deformation. Place the LDCC through grout pipes installed within the annular space between the carrier pipe and casing. Install multiple grout pipes to provide redundancy.

C. Install gauge saver or diaphragm seal to protect pressure gauges from grout contamination.

E. Place backfill grout through approved grout port locations.

F. Provide positive venting to ensure complete grouting around the carrier pipe, particularly in the invert and crown.

G. Begin grouting at the low end of the steel casing and proceed to the high end so as to cause any water remaining in the invert to move ahead of, and not mix with or become trapped by, the backfill grout.

H. Provide means to allow water and thinned or contaminated grout at the leading edge of the lift to escape.

I. A witness port shall be placed at the top of the high end bulkhead. The grout return through the port shall constitute as the termination criteria.

2. Collect test specimens near the connection where the LDCC is being injected.

3. Assist the Engineer in obtaining additional test cylinders. Supply materials necessary for fabricating the test cylinders.

4. Provide at or very near the point of injection, a system of valves in the line transporting the LDCC, which will allow easy access for collection of test specimens without disconnecting the line from the outlet. Submit the valve arrangement to the Engineer for review at least 15 days prior to commencing LDCC backfilling operations.

B. Unit Weight: Make unit weight (wet density) tests from the first batch mixed each day, after a change in mix design, every 30 minutes during pumping, and

02 24 32 - 10 JUNE 2022

©COPYRIGHT 2022 JACOBS

from each batch of LDCC from which compression test cylinders are made.

Determine unit weight in accordance with ASTM C567. Unit weight at the point of placement shall be within plus or minus 5 percent of the unit weight established for the mix design being placed. Adjust mix as required to obtain the specified wet density.

C. Air Content: Make an air content test from the first batch mixed each day, and from each batch of LDCC from which concrete compression test cylinders are made. Air content at the point of placement will be the difference between the wet density at the point of placement less the wet density at the point immediately before the addition of preformed foam. Determine air content in accordance with ASTM C138 except that vibration or rodding of the sample is not allowed.

D. Compression Tests: Make one set of four test cylinders (3 inches by 6 inches) for each shift when LDCC is placed. Make one additional set from each additional 200 cubic yards, or major fraction thereof, placed in any one shift.

Test two cylinders from each set at an age of 28 days.

1. Compressive strength of LDCC will be considered satisfactory if both of the following requirements are met:

a. Average of three consecutive compressive strength tests equal or exceed the specified unconfined compressive strength.

b. No individual compressive strength test (average of two cylinders) is below the specified unconfined compressive strength by more than 20 percent.

2. A strength test shall be the average of two compressive strengths of two cylinders made from the same concrete sample and tested at 28 days.

3. Make test cylinders in the field, cure and store in the laboratory, and test in accordance with ASTM C495.

4. Mark or tag each set of compression test cylinders with the date and time of day the cylinders were made, the location in the work where the LDCC represented by the cylinder was placed, batch number, unit weight (wet density), and the air content.

E. Temperature Monitoring: Measure and record daily internal temperature of LDCC and internal conduit wall during the curing period.

3.05 PROTECTION AND CLEAN UP

A. Utilize methods for protecting conduits from deformation in accordance with submittals that are reviewed and approved by the Engineer.
