1. Scope This section covers the materials, equipment, and procedures required to furnish and install extruded concrete curbing for roadway edges, parking lots, or landscaped areas.

2. Materials

Concrete Mix:

o Portland Cement: ASTM C150, Type I o Fine Aggregate: Clean, well-graded sand per ASTM C33 o Water: Potable, minimal content to achieve a 0–1" slump o Fiber Reinforcement: Optional, synthetic fibers (e.g., polypropylene) per ASTM C1116 for crack resistance o Air Entrainment: Not required unless specified by the local agency

Additives: No calcium chloride allowed

3. Mix Proportions

Water-cement ratio: ≤ 0.45 Compressive strength: Minimum 3,500 psi at 28 days Slump: 0–1 inch for optimal extrusion Consistency: Mix should form a firm ball when squeezed, leaving hands nearly dry

4. Equipment

Curb extruding machine with adjustable mold conforming to specified curb profiles Mortar mixer recommended for low-slump dry mix Finishing tools for shaping and smoothing

5. Installation

Site prep: Compact subgrade and remove debris Marking: Use chalk or paint lines for layout Extrusion: Machine-extruded curb placed continuously along marked path Joints:

o Expansion Joints: Install every 10–15 ft using preformed joint material o Control Joints: Sawcut to ⅓ depth within 24 hours of placement

Finishing: Shape and smooth immediately after extrusion Curing: Moist cure for minimum 3 days or apply curing compound per ASTM C309
