Approval shall be contingent upon full conformance with the following provisions:

The underlying material shall be prepared and protected so that it is entirely free of

02511-2 frost when the concrete is deposited. Mining water and/or aggregates shall be heated as necessary to result in the temperature of the in place concrete being between 10 and 30 degrees C, (50 and 85 degrees F). Methods and equipment for heating shall be approved by the Contracting Officer. The aggregates shall be free of ice and snow, and frozen lumps before entering the mixer. Covering and other means shall be provided for maintaining the concrete at a temperature of at least 10 degrees C.

(50 degrees F) for not less than 72 hours after placing, and at a temperature above freezing for the remainder of the curing period.

1.3.2 Placing During Warm Weather

The temperature of the concrete as placed shall not exceed 85 degrees F except where an approval retarder is used. The mixing of water and/or aggregates shall be cooled, if necessary, to maintain a satisfactory placing temperature. In no case shall the placing temperature exceed 95 degrees F.
