3.0 SCOPE AND ORDER OF WORK

The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, equipment, and engineering services required to complete the concrete slab repair and anchor bolt replacement in the following sequential order:

Step 1: Saw Cutting the Bottom Slab

1. Marking and Layout: The Contractor shall precisely locate the existing eight (8) anchor bolts on the BAK-12 bottom slab.

2. Perimeter Saw Cutting: The Contractor shall perform full-depth perimeter saw cuts forming an 8-foot by 4-foot (8'x4') rectangular boundary centered directly over the existing anchor bolt configuration to completely envelop all eight existing anchor bolts.

3. Execution Requirements: Saw cuts must be perfectly straight and vertical. Overcutting at corners shall be minimized by auguring a four (4”) inch minimum diameter cylinder the full depth of the existing concrete to prevent propagation cracks in the remaining airfield pavement, complying with ACI standards for pavement repair. Water runoff from the wet-sawing operation must be vacuumed immediately to prevent contamination of the surrounding airfield joint seals, or active pavement.

Step 2: Excavation and Base Removal

1. Demolition: The Contractor shall break and remove the existing concrete within the 8'x4' saw-cut perimeter using lightweight handheld jackhammers (not exceeding 40 lbs unless approved by the Base Civil Engineer) to prevent damage to the surrounding structural slab.

2. Excavation Depth: The Contractor shall excavate and remove all concrete debris, underlying aggregate base, and subgrade material to a minimum depth of 2.5 feet (30 inches) below the existing bottom slab's base elevation.

3. Subgrade Preparation: The excavated bottom must be leveled, hand-tamped, and verified for stability. Any soft spots or unsuitable soil must be excavated and replaced with approved compacted crushed aggregate base (CAB) meeting UFC 3-260-01 requirements.

Step 3: Drilling and Installing Anchor Dowels

1. Hole Alignment and Layout: The Contractor shall drill dowel holes horizontally into the vertical faces of the remaining existing concrete base. The drilling pattern must be designed to align precisely with the spacing of the existing structural rebar cage.

2. Drilling Specifications: Holes shall be drilled using rotary hammer drills. The depth and diameter of the holes must conform to the epoxy manufacturer's requirements for structural load transfer (typically a minimum embedment depth of 10xd, where d is the dowel diameter).

3. Adhesive Doweling: Clean the drilled holes thoroughly using wire brushes and compressed air to remove all dust, laitance, and standing water. Install steel dowels using an approved, high-strength structural epoxy adhesive conforming to ASTM C881 (Type

IV, Grade 3, Class B/C).

Step 4: Rebar Cage Fabrication

1. Material Standards: Rebar must be deformed steel bars conforming to ASTM A615, Grade 60.

2. Cage Fabrication: The Contractor shall construct a new steel reinforcing cage utilizing

#5 rebar. The reinforcement design, spacing, and grid pattern must match the existing structural reinforcing pattern as detailed in USAF Standard Drawing 67F2013A.

3. Installation and Clearances: The cage must be securely tied with 16-gauge tie wire and placed on approved concrete support chairs to ensure a minimum concrete cover of 3 inches from the bottom of the excavation and 2 inches from the saw-cut side walls. Tie the new cage securely to the structural dowels installed in Step 3.

Step 5: Setting Eight (8) New BAK-12 Anchor Bolts

1. Anchor Bolt Specifications: The Contractor shall supply eight (8) new high-strength steel anchor bolts conforming to TO 35E8-2-5-1 specifications and standard drawing

67F2013A (ASTM F1554, Grade 55 or Grade 105, or as specified by the system manufacturer).

2. Alignment Template: The Contractor shall fabricate and utilize a rigid steel or plywood template matching the exact dimensions of the BAK-12 energy absorber baseplate to hold the eight (8) anchor bolts in perfect alignment, vertical plumb, and spatial coordinates during the concrete pour.

3. Tolerance Requirements: The tolerances for bolt placement must be absolute. The centerline of the bolt group must not deviate by more than $\pm 1/16$ inch, and the projected height must be verified against original drawings to ensure proper thread engagement when the BAK-12 is mounted.

Step 6: Concrete Placement and Finishing

1. Base Layer Preparation: Prior to pouring concrete, the Contractor shall place and compact a 0.5-foot (6-inch) thick layer of high-density crushed aggregate subbase at the bottom of the excavation, ensuring the remaining vertical space for concrete is exactly 2 feet (24 inches). New material shall total 30 inches.

2. Concrete Mix Design: The concrete must be an airfield-strength Portland Cement

Concrete (PCC) mix design. The minimum compressive strength must be 5,000 PSI at

28 days (or a rapid-set concrete repair mix reaching equivalent strength as approved by the Base Civil Engineer and major command/ANG airfield requirements). Contractor must prepare a minimum of four test cylinders per 8 yards of concrete for compressive testing.

3. Placement: Deposit the concrete into the repair area, utilizing mechanical immersion vibrators to consolidate the mixture around the dense #5 rebar cage and anchor bolts, ensuring zero honeycombing or air pockets.

4. Finishing and Leveling: Screed and finish the concrete surface to be perfectly flush with the adjacent existing slab base elevation. Apply a non-slip, light broom finish.

5. Curing: Apply a curing compound meeting ASTM C309 or initiate a continuous moist cure for a minimum of 7 days (or until compressive tests indicate the patch has reached at least 3,500 PSI or 70% of design strength) before applying any deadload.

Step 7: BAK-12 System Re-installation

1. Preparation: Once curing is complete and compressive strength verified, remove the alignment template and clean the anchor bolt threads.

2. Installation: The Government will be responsible for removing and re-installing the

BAK-12 system and pit top plates.

4.0 Airfield Safety & Environmental Requirements

• Foreign Object Debris (FOD) Control: The Contractor is working directly in an airfield environment. The Contractor shall maintain extreme cleanliness. At the end of every shift, the site must be thoroughly swept, and all tools, concrete debris, and dust must be accounted for and removed.

• Haul Routes and Escorts: All personnel must be escorted or cleared for airfield access.

Vehicles must operate strictly within approved haul routes.

• Airfield Markings & Safety Zones: Keep all equipment out of active Runway Safety

Areas (RSA) unless coordinated with Airfield Management.

5.0 SAFETY, HEALTH, AND ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS

5.1 Safety and Health Requirements (USACE EM 385-1-1)

• Accident Prevention Plan (APP): The contractor shall submit a site-specific APP in compliance with USACE EM 385-1-1 requirements for BCE approval before any on-site work begins.

• Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA): The APP must include a detailed AHA for each phase of work (demolition, drilling, concrete pouring, and heavy lifting) to identify potential safety hazards and implement mitigation strategies.

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): All contractor personnel must wear appropriate PPE, including high-visibility vests, steel-toed boots, safety glasses, hearing protection, and hard hats, in accordance with base safety policies.

5.2 Environmental Compliance

• Stormwater and Runoff Control: The contractor shall implement Best Management

Practices (BMPs) to prevent concrete slurry, dust, or wet-saw water from entering storm drains or joint seals.

• Waste Management Plan: The contractor shall submit a Waste Management Plan detailing how demolition debris, concrete washout, and packaging materials will be collected, transported, and disposed of at an approved off-base municipal site.

6.0 PROJECT DELIVERABLES & SUBMITTALS

The Contractor must submit the following documents to the Base Civil Engineer (BCE) for formal review and approval. No on-site work shall begin until all pre-construction submittals have been approved in writing.
