2.02 DESIGN OF FORMWORK

A. Design, erect, support, brace, and maintain formwork so that it will safely support vertical and lateral loads that might be applied, until such loads can be supported by the concrete structure. Carry vertical and lateral loads to ground by formwork system and in-place construction that has attained adequate strength for that purpose. Construct formwork so

03 11 00 CONCRETE FORMING 3 OF 6

that concrete members and structures are of correct size, shape, alignment, elevation, and position. Maintain formwork and construction tolerances and surface irregularities complying with the following ACI 347 limits:

1. Provide Class A tolerances for concrete surfaces exposed to view.

2. Provide Class C tolerances for other concrete surfaces.

B. Design forms and falsework to include assumed values of live load, dead load, weight of moving equipment operated on formwork, concrete mix, height of concrete drop, vibrator frequency, ambient temperature, foundation pressures, stresses, lateral stability, and other factors pertinent to safety of structure during construction.

C. Design formwork to be readily removable without impact, shock, or damage to cast-in-place concrete surfaces and adjacent materials. Fabricate forms for easy removal without hammering or prying against concrete surfaces. Provide crush plates or wrecking plates where stripping may damage cast concrete surfaces. Provide top forms for inclined surfaces where slope is too steep to place concrete with bottom forms only. Kerf wood inserts for forming keyways, reglets, recesses and the like for easy removal.

D. Provide formwork sufficiently tight to prevent leakage of cement paste during concrete placement. Solidly butt joint and provide backup material at joints as required to prevent leakage and fins.

E. Side forms of footings may be omitted and concrete placed directly against excavation only when requested by Contractor and accepted by Architect. When omission of forms is accepted, provide additional concrete beyond the minimum design profiles and dimensions of the footings as detailed.

F. Side forms are not required at the sides of trench footings or other footings where specifically indicated.

G. Provide temporary openings for cleanouts and inspections where interior area of formwork is inaccessible before and during concrete placement. Securely brace temporary openings and set tightly to forms to prevent losing concrete mortar. Locate temporary openings in forms at inconspicuous locations.

H. Chamfer exposed corners and edges indicated using chamfer strips fabricated to produce uniform smooth lines and tight edge joints.

I. Cleaning and Tightening: Thoroughly clean forms and adjacent surfaces to receive concrete. Remove chips, wood, sawdust, dirt, or other debris just before placing concrete. Re-tighten forms and bracing before placing concrete, as required, to prevent mortar leaks and maintain proper alignment.

J. Provisions for other Trades: Coordinate openings in concrete formwork to accommodate work of other trades. Determine size and location of openings, recesses, and chases from trades providing such items. Accurately place and securely support items built into forms.

PART 3 - EXECUTION

2. Provide wedges, jacks, or camber strips to facilitate vertical adjustments.

Carefully inspect falsework and formwork during and after concrete placement operations to determine abnormal deflection or signs of failure; make necessary adjustments to produce work or required dimensions.

3. Support form facing materials by members spaced sufficiently close to prevent deflection. Fit forms placed in successive units for continuous surfaces to accurate alignment, free from irregularities and within allowable tolerances.

4. Provide camber in formwork as required for anticipated deflections due to weight and pressures of fresh concrete and construction loads for long span members without intermediate supports.

5. Carefully inspect falsework and formwork during and after concrete placement operations to determine abnormal deflection or signs of failure; make necessary adjustments to produce work of required dimension.

F. Forms for Exposed Concrete

1. Provide form coatings on forms for all exposed finished concrete. Plywood grain indentations or patterns left in the concrete as a result of the forms are not acceptable.

2. Drill forms to suit ties used and to prevent leakage of concrete mortar around tie holes. Do not splinter forms by driving ties through improperly prepared holes.

3. Do not use metal cover plates for patching holes or defects in forms.

4. Provide sharp, clean corners at intersecting planes without visible edges or offsets. Back joints with extra studs or girts to maintain true, square intersections.

5. Use extra studs, whalers, and bracing to prevent bowing of forms between studs and to avoid bowed appearance in concrete. Do not use narrow strips of form material which will produce bow.

6. Assemble forms so they may be readily removed without damage to exposed concrete surfaces.

7. Form molding shapes, recesses, and projections with smooth-finish materials and install in forms with sealed joints to prevent displacement.

G. Corner Treatment

03 11 00 CONCRETE FORMING 5 OF 6

1. Forms for concrete curbs and bases shall be rigidly held straight and tight so that finished concrete will be level and even.

3.04 REMOVAL OF FORMS

A. Formwork not supporting weight of concrete, such as sides of beams, walls, columns, and similar parts of the work, may be removed after cumulatively curing at not less than

50 deg F for 24 hours after placing concrete, provided concrete is sufficiently hard to not be damaged by form-removal operations, and provided curing and protection operations are maintained.

B. Formwork supporting weight of concrete, such as beam soffits, joists, slabs, and other structural elements, may not be removed in less than 14 days or until concrete has attained at least 75 percent of design minimum compressive strength at 28 days.

Determine potential compressive strength of in-place concrete by testing field-cured specimens representative of concrete location or members.

C. Form-facing material may be removed 4 days after placement only if shores and other vertical supports have been arranged to permit removal of form-facing material without loosening or disturbing shores and supports.

3.05 REUSE OF FORMS

03 11 00 CONCRETE FORMING 6 OF 6

A. Clean and repair surfaces of forms to be reused in the work. Split, frayed, delaminated, or otherwise damaged form facing material will not be acceptable. Apply new form coating compound material to concrete contact surfaces as specified for new formwork.

B. When forms are extended for successive concrete placement, thoroughly clean surfaces, remove fins and laitance, and tighten forms to close all joints. Align and secure joints to avoid offsets. Do not use "patched" forms for exposed concrete surfaces, except as acceptable to the Architect.

Compliance with required tolerances is the responsibility of the Contractor and adjustment required to meet these shall not be unduly restricted by the Architect or his representative.

1.05 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

A. Floor Tolerance Measurements: Floor flatness and levelness tests on floor slabs shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions set forth in ASTM E 1155-14 with the exception of Subparagraphs 7.2.3 and 7.3.2 which may be waived at the Owner's option, also Zi calculation to be used shall be N min. = A/10. Floor tolerance measurements shall be made by the

03 30 00 CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE 3 OF 17

independent testing laboratory within 24 hours after completion of the final troweling operation, and before forms and shores have been removed, measurement shall be taken using a Dipstick Auto-Read Floor Profiler as manufactured by The Edward W. Face Company, Inc. of Norfolk, VA. Results of floor tolerance tests, including a formal notice of acceptance or rejection of the work, shall be provided to the Contractor within 24 hours after data collection.

B. Remedy for Out-of-Tolerance Work: Slab sections measuring at or above both of the specified minimum local F-numbers shall be accepted for tolerance compliance as constructed. Floor slab sections measuring below either (or both) of the specified minimum local F-numbers shall be removed and replaced (in the case of slabs-on-grade), or ground or re-topped (in the case of elevated slabs). No remedies for sub-minimum local F-number sections other than replacement of slabs-on-grade and grinding or re-topping of elevated slabs will be permitted.

For the purposes of this paragraph, a floor section shall be a rectangular area bound by column or half-column lines (i.e., minimum sections area - approximately 100 sq. ft.).

C. Special Conditions (Exceptions): Where room sizes (areas receiving concrete flooring) are restricted to smaller areas due to bearing walls or existing construction making finishing difficult, the Architect's Field Representative will determine acceptable deviations/exceptions in testing requirements.

1. Architect's Field Representative may at his discretion:

a. Waive entirely testing of small rooms, storage areas, and similar spaces.

b. Reduce the number and select the location of tests.

c. Waive penalties between specified and minimum locals.

d. Require that tolerances exceed minimum locals only.

e. Waive the requirement for removal of concrete not meeting minimum locals if, in his opinion, repairs can bring floors into acceptable/serviceable tolerances.

1.06 CONCRETE TESTING

A. Cooperate and coordinate with the testing laboratory to perform field quality control testing during concrete work under Division 3 in accordance with the current FBC. Refer to the general notes on the structural drawings.

B. Quality Control Testing During Construction: Perform sampling and testing for field quality control during the placement of concrete, as follows:

1. Sampling Fresh Concrete: ASTM C172, except modified for slump to comply with ASTM C94.

2. Slump: ASTM C143, one test for each concrete load at point of discharge, and one for each set of compressive strength test specimens.

3. Concrete Temperature: Test hourly when air temperature is 40 degrees F. and below and when 80 degrees F. and above; and each time a set of compressive test specimens is made.

4. Compression Test Specimens: ASTM C31.

5. Compressive Strength Tests: ASTM C39. Make 5 (4x8x cylinders) laboratory-cured specimens. One specimen shall be broken at 7 days and three specimens shall be broken at 28 days, and one retained in reserve for later testing if required.

a. One set for each 100 cubic yards or fraction thereof of each mix design placed in a day, or for each 5,000 sq. ft. of surface area for slab on grade.

b. One set for each 50 cubic yards or fraction thereof of each mix design placed in a day, or for each 2500 sq. ft. of surface area for elevated slabs (formed or on metal deck) or walls.

C. Report test results in writing to the Architect, Contractor, and ready-mix supplier on the same day that tests are made. Reports of compressive strength tests shall contain the project identification name and number, date of concrete placement, name of Contractor, name of concrete supplier and truck number, name of concrete testing service, concrete type and class, location of concrete batch in the structure (specific locations are required), design compressive strength at 28 days, concrete mix proportions and materials, compressive breaking strength

03 30 00 CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE 4 OF 17

and type and amount of fibrous reinforcement, compressive breaking strength, and type of break for both 7 day tests and 28 day tests.

D. Additional Tests: The testing service will make additional tests of in-place concrete when test results indicate the specified concrete strengths and other characteristics have not been attained in the structure, as directed by the Architect. The testing service shall conduct tests to determine the strength and other characteristics of the in-place concrete by compression tests on cored cylinders complying with ASTM C42 or by load testing specified in ACI 318 or other acceptable nondestructive testing methods, as directed. The Contractor shall pay for such tests conducted and other additional testing as may be required, when unacceptable concrete is verified.

E. Evaluation of Quality Control Tests: Do not use concrete delivered to the final point of placement which has slump or total air content outside the specified values.

1. Compressive strength tests for laboratory-cured cylinders will be considered satisfactory if the averages of all sets of 3 consecutive compressive strength tests results equal or exceed the 28-day design compressive strength of the type or class of concrete; and no individual strength test (average of two cylinders) falls below the required compressive strength by more than 500 psi when f’c is 5000 psi or less; or by more than 0.10f’c when f’c is more than 5000 psi.

2. Strength tests of specimens cured under field conditions may be required by the Architect to check the adequacy of curing and protecting of the concrete placed. Specimens shall be molded by the field quality control laboratory at the same time and from the same samples as the laboratory cured specimens.

a. Provide improved means and procedures for protecting concrete when the

28-day compressive strength of field cured cylinders is less than 85 percent of companion laboratory cured cylinders.

b. When laboratory cured cylinder strengths are appreciably higher than the minimum required compressive strength, field cured cylinder strengths need not exceed the minimum required compressive strength by more than 500 psi even though the

85 percent criterion is not met.

c. If individual tests of laboratory cured specimen produce strengths more than 500 psi below the required minimum compressive strength or if tests of field cured cylinders indicate deficiencies in protection and curing, provide additional measures to assure that the load-bearing capacity of the structure is not jeopardized. If the likelihood of low-strength concrete is confirmed, and computations indicate the load-bearing capacity may have been significantly reduced, tests of cores drilled from the area in question may be required.

3. If the compressive strength tests fail to meet the minimum requirements specified, the concrete represented by such tests will be considered deficient in strength.

F. Deficient concrete shall be removed as directed by the Architect and replaced by the Contractor without additional cost to the Owner.
