The Rodgers Hollow range area will not be accessible via the main entrance
SECTION 01 50 00 Page 4 during flooding/high water events. The road becomes inaccessible when the Ohio River McAlpine Lower gauge reaches approximately 48 ft. It is common for this situation to occur annually, and sometimes more often. The construction site would still be accessible to smaller vehicles via an alternate road but no deliveries, semis, etc. would be allowed. If this situation does occur, this period of time will be treated as an unusually severe weather event and the Contractor may be entitled to a Contract time extension in accordance with the paragraph titled "Time Extensions for Unusually Severe Weather" (ER-415-1-15) and FAR 52.249-10 "Default (Fixed Price Construction)"

1.2 DEFINITIONS
a. "Cementitious material" as used herein must include all portland cement, pozzolan, fly ash, and slag cement.
b. "Exposed to public view" means situated so that it can be seen from eye level from a public location after completion of the building. A public location is accessible to persons not responsible for operation
SECTION 03 30 00 Page 11 or maintenance of the building.
c. "Chemical admixtures" are materials in the form of powder or fluids that are added to the concrete to give it certain characteristics not obtainable with plain concrete mixes.
d. "Supplementary cementing materials" (SCM) include coal fly ash, , slag cement, natural or calcined pozzolans, and ultra-fine coal ash when used in such proportions to replace the portland cement that result in improvement to sustainability and durability and reduced cost.
e. "Design strength" (f'c) is the specified compressive strength of concrete at time(s) specified in this section to meet structural design criteria.
f. "Mass Concrete" is any concrete system that approaches a maximum temperature of 158 degrees F within the first 72 hours of placement.
In addition, it includes all concrete elements with a section thickness of 3 feet or more regardless of temperature.
g. "Mixture proportioning" is the process of designing concrete mixture proportions to enable it to meet the strength, service life and constructability requirements of the project while minimizing the initial and life-cycle cost.
h. "Mixture proportions" are the masses or volumes of individual ingredients used to make a unit measure (cubic meter or cubic yard) of concrete.
i. "Pozzolan" is a siliceous or siliceous and aluminous material, which in itself possesses little or no cementitious value but will, in finely divided form and in the presence of moisture, chemically react with calcium hydroxide at ordinary temperatures to form compounds possessing cementitious properties.
j. "Workability (or consistence)" is the ability of a fresh (plastic) concrete mix to fill the form/mould properly with the desired work (vibration) and without reducing the concrete's quality. Workability depends on water content, chemical admixtures, aggregate (shape and size distribution), cementitious content and age (level of hydration).
