KLEINFELDER iii SITE PHOTOGRAPHS Street Reconstruction of Karnes , Harper, Fairview, Fain, and Primrose Fort Worth , Texas Project 81290 April 2007 -Important lnlormation About Your Geotechnical Engineering Report Geotechnical Services Are Performed for Specific Purposes, Persons, and Projects Geotechnical engineers structure their services to meet the specific needs of their clients . A geotechnical engineering study conducted for a civil engi- neer may not fulfill the needs of a construction contractor or even another civil engineer. Because each geotechnical engineering study is unique, each geotechnical engineering report is unique, prepared sole/yfor the client. No one except you should rely on your geotechnical engineering report without first conferring with the geotechnical engineer who prepared it. And no one -not even you -should apply the report for any purpose or project except the one originally contemplated . Read the Full Report Serious problems have occurred because those relying on a geotechnical engineering report did not read it all . Do not rely on an executive summary. Do not read selected elements only. A Geotechnical Engineering Report Is Based on A Unique Set of Project-Specific Factors Geotechnical engineers consider a number of unique, project-specific fac- tors when establishing the scope of a study. Typical factors include : the client's goals, objectives, and risk management preferences; the general nature of the structure involved, its size, and configuration; the location of the structure on the site; and other planned or existing site improvements, such as access roads, parking lots, and underground utilities. Unless the geotechnica l engineer who conducted the study specifically indicates oth - erwise, do not rely on a geotechnical engineering report that was : • not prepared for you, • not prepared for your project, • not prepared for the specific site explored, or • completed before important project changes were made. Typical changes that can erode the reliab ility of an existing geotechnical engineering report include those that affect: • the function of the proposed structure, as when it's changed from a parking garage to an office building, or from a light industrial plant to a refrigerated warehouse, • elevation, configuration; location, orientation, or weight of the proposed structure, • composition of the design team, or • project ownership . As a general rule, always inform your geotechnical engineer of project changes-even minor ones-and request an assessment of their impact Geotechflical engineers cannot accept responsibility or liability for problems that occur because their reports do not consider developments of which they were not inf armed. · Subsurface Conditions Can Change A geotechnical engineering report is based on conditions that existed at the time the study was performed . Do not rely on a geotechnical engineer- ing reportwhose adequacy may have been affected by: the passage of time; by man -made events, such as construction on or adjacent to the site; or by natural events, such as floods , earthquakes, or groundwater fluctua- tions . Always contact the geotechnical engineer before applying the report to determin e if it is still reliable_ A minor amount of additional testing or analysis could prevent major problems . Most Geotechnical Findings Are Professional Opinions Site exploration identifies subsurface conditions only at those points where subsurface tests are conducted or samples are taken . Geotechnical engi- neers review field and laboratory data and then apply their professional judgment to render an opinion about subsurface condi tions throughout the site. Actual subsurface conditions may differ-sometimes significantly- from those indicated in your report. Retain ing the geotechnical engineer who developed your report to provide construction observation is the most effective method of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions. A Report's Recommendations Are Not Final Do not overrely on the construction recommendations included in your report . Those recommendations are not final, because geotechnical engi- neers develop them principally from judgment and opinion . Geotechnical engineers can finalize their recommendations only by observing actual subsurface conditions revealed during construction . The geotechnical engineer who developed your repott cannot assume responsibility or liability for the repott's recommendations if that engineer does not perform construction observation. A Geotechnical Engineering Report Is Subject to Misinterpretation Other design team members' misinterpretation of geotechnical engineering reports has resulted in costly problems. Lower that risk by having your geo- technical engineer confer with appropriate members of the design team after submitting the report. Also retain your geotechnical engineer to review perti- nent elements of the design team's plans and specifications. Contractors can also misinterpret a geotechnical engineering report Reduce that risk by having your geotechnical engineer participate in prebid and preconstruction conferences, and by providing construction observation. Do Not Redraw the Engineer's Logs Geotechnical engineers prepare final boring and testing logs based upon their interpretation of field logs and laboratory data. To prevent errors or omissions. the logs included in a geotechnical engineering report should never be redrawn for inclusion in architectural or other design drawings. Only photographic or electronic reproduction is acceptable, but recognize that separating logs from the repott can elevate risk. Give Contractors a Complete Report and Guidance Some owners and design professionals mistakenly believe they can make contractors liable for unanticipated subsurface conditions by limiting what they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent costly problems, give con- tractors the complete geotechnical engineering report, but preface it with a clearly written letter of transmittal. In that letter, advise contractors that the report was not prepared for purposes of bid development and that the report's accuracy is limited; encourage them to confer with the geotechnical engineer who prepared the report (a modest fee may be required) and/or to conduct additional study to obtain the specific types of information they need or prefer. A prebid conference can also be valuable. Be sure contrac- tors have sufficient time to perform additional study. Only then might you be in a position to give contractors the best information available to you, while requiring them to at least share some of the financial responsibilities stemming from unanticipated conditions . Read Responsibility Provisions Closely Some clients, design professionals, and contractors do not recognize that geotechnical engineering is far less exact than other engineering disci- plines . This lack of understanding has created unrealistic expectations that have led to disappointments, claims, and disputes . To help reduce the risk of such outcomes, geotechnical engineers commonly include a variety of explanatory provisions in their reports . Sometimes labeled 'limitations' many of these provisions indicate where geotechnical engineers' responsi- bilities begin and end, lo help others recognize their own responsibilities and risks . Read these provisions closely Ask questions . Your geotechnical engineer should respond fully and frankly. Geoenvironmental Concerns Are Not Covered The equipment, techniques, and personnel used to perform a geoenviron- mental study differ significantly from those used to perform a geotechnical study. For that reason, a geotechnical engineering report does not usually relate any geoenvironmental findings, conclusions, or recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants. Unanticipated environmental problems have led to numerous project failures . If you have not yet obtained your own geoen- vironmental information, ask your geotechnical consultant for risk man- agement guidance. Do not rely on an environmental repott prepared for someone else. Obtain Professional Assistance To Deal with Mold Diverse strategies can be applied during building design, construction, operation, and maintenance to prevent significant amounts of mold from growing on indoor surfaces. To be effective, all such strategies should be devised for the express purpose of mold prevention, integrated into a com- prehensive plan, and executed with diligent oversight by a professional mold prevention consultant. Because just a small amount of water or moisture can lead to the development of severe mold infestations, a num- ber of mold prevention strategies focus on keeping building surfaces dry. While groundwater, water infiltration, and similar issues may have been addressed as part of the geotechnical engineering study whose findings are conveyed in this report, the geotechnical engineer in charge of this project is not a mold prevention consultant; none of the services per- formed in connection with the geotechnical engineer's study were designed or conducted for the purpose of mold preven- tion. Proper implementation of the recommendations conveyed in this report will not of itself be sufficient to prevent mold from growing in or on the structure involved.

These roadways are located to the northeast of Downtown Fort Worth, west of East Loop 820, and north of State Highway 121 , as shown on the Vicinity Map in the Appendix. The proposed improvements will include reconstructing the roadways as follows: • Karnes Street -from Race Street to Airport Freeway • Harper Street -from Parrish Road to dead end of Harper Street • Fairview Street-from Maurice Avenue to Airport Freeway • Fain Street-from Beach Street to Airport Freeway • Primrose Avenue -from Eagle Drive to Gwynne Street The new roads may be either hot-mix asphalt (flexible) or Portland cement concrete (rigid) pavements. Proposed finished grades were not known at the time of this report but are anticipated to be at or near existing grades. At the time of this study the roadways consisted of flexible pavement, were open to traffic and serviced residential areas. The condition of the pavements varied, but generally showed signs of distress . 1.2 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of this study has been to develop geotechnical recommendations for use in determining subgrade treatment and pavement thickness complying with the City of Fort Worth Transportation and Public Works Department 2005 Pavement Design Standards Manual (PDSM). To accomplish its intended purposes, the study has been conducted based on the following scope: 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder KLEINFELDER 1. Drilling sample borings to assess the general subsurface conditions and to obtain samples for testing; 2. Performing laboratory tests on appropriate samples to assess pertinent engineering properties of the subsurface materials; and, 3. Performing engineering analyses, using the field and lab data to develop subgrade treatment recommendations and recommended pavement thickness values. 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 2 KLEINFELDER 2 FIELD EXPLORATION AND LABORATORY TESTING The subsurface materials at the project site were explored by 12 borings. Borings 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 were drilled on March 16, 2007. Borings 3, 4, 10, 11, and 12 had to be relocated due to underground utility conflicts, and were completed on March 27, 2007. The borings were drilled at the approximate locations shown on the Plan of Borings in the Appendix, Plate 2. The Logs of Borings are provided as Plates 4 through 16 . A key to terms and descriptions on the logs is provided on Plate 3. Table 1 -Schedule of Borings Boring Depth, ft Roadway 1 10 Primrose Avenue 2 10 Primrose Avenue 3 10 Harper Street 4 10 Harper Street 5 10 Harper Street 6 10 Fain Street 7 10 Fain Street 8 10 Fairview Street 9 10 Fairview Street 10 10 Fairview Street 11 10 Karnes Street 12 10 Karnes Street Boring locations were selected to avoid subsurface and overhead utilities as located by the Texas One-Call System, and the City of Fort Worth. Traffic control devices were provided during drilling operations to establish a safe working environment. At the start of drilling operations the existing pavement was penetrated using a continuous flight auger and the thickness of the existing pavement materials were measured within the auger hole. Subsurface materials were then sampled with Shelby tube or Standard Penetration Test samplers. At completion, the borings were backfilled with sand and the pavement surface was patched with cold patch asphalt. 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kle infelder 3 KLEINFELDER Note that the borings were located in the field using a site plan and measurements from existing landmarks, and were not surveyed. The boring locations provided on the plates in the Appendix should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the method used in their determination. Samples of subsurface materials from the borings were visually examined and classified in the field. Modifications to the field classifications were made based on a professional review of the samples in the laboratory and on the results of laboratory testing . 2.1 LABORATORY TESTING Atterberg Limits (liquid and plastic limit) tests and No. 200-mesh sieve tests were performed on selected samples to establish index properties and grain size characteristics, and to classify the soils according to the Unified Soil Classification System. The undrained strength characteristics of selected samples were evaluated using unconsolidated-undrained (UU) triaxial compression tests. This test provides an indicator of the shear strength of the soil at the time of sampling . The tests were conducted using one relatively undisturbed specimen that was subjected to a confining pressure of 5 psi for a period of about 10 minutes before testing. Selected samples that were considered to have a moisture content below the corresponding plastic limit were backpressure saturated for a period of approximately 24 hours to raise the sample's moisture content close to saturation. The tendency of selected samples to react with hydrated lime was evaluated using the Eades and Grimm pH-lime series test. The tests were conducted using a composite sample from the likely soil treatment zone. The tendency of selected samples to swell when exposed to moisture was evaluated using one-dimensional swell tests. The tests were conducted using relatively undisturbed samples from zones that were considered capable of swelling. During this test the trimmed samples are exposed to a free water source while subjected to the approximate in-situ overburden stress. 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfeld er 4 KLEI NFELDER Test results are provided on the individual Logs of Borings and Plates (as appropriate) in the Appendix. A Summary of Laboratory results are also included in the Appendix. Testing also included soluble sulfate testing. The results of these tests are referenced directly within the text as appropriate. 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 5 KLEINFELDER 3 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS 3.1 GEOLOGY AND STRATIGRAPHY Based on our knowledge, experience and published geologic atlas maps, the site is located within terrace deposits. Terrace deposits are typically composed of gravel, sand, silt and clay. 3.2 SUBSURFACE STRATIGRAPHY Hot-mix asphalt was identified at the surface of each of boring. The asphalt ranged in thickness from 1 to 7 inches. Course aggregate base material was identified below the asphalt in all the borings except Boring 4, varying in thickness from % to 11 inches. Clay, sandy clay, sand, sand with silt, silty clayey sand and clayey sand were encountered beneath the pavement section. Alternating layers of these materials were encountered within the borings. These layers were encountered at varying depths and thicknesses · within the borings. Borings 1, 5, and 6 were· the more clayey locations; while Borings 2 through 4 and 7 through 12 were the more sapdy locations. Liquid limits of the soil varied from 19 to 52 and the plasticity indices varied from 1 to 33. The higher plasticity clay was observed in Boring 2. The extent to which these higher plasticity clays are present within the street alignments is not known. It should be noted that the borings were widely spaced within the street alignment and although some of the borings did not 'encounter highly plastic clay _ they still may be present within the street alignment. . Additionally,_ finished grades of the roadways were not known at the time of this report but are anticipated to be at or near existing grades. If finished grades will include cuts, plastic clays could be encountered. Refer to the Logs of Borings in the Appendix for detailed subsurface descriptions. Note that demarcation lines between the strata are interpretive of the field conditions, and that actual strata transitions in the fi~ld may be gradual. 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 6 KLEINFELDER 3.3 GROUNDWATER OBSERVATIONS Groundwater seepage was noted within Boring 1 at approximately 9 feet below existing grade during and upon completion of drilling. Groundwater seepage was not observed within the remaining borings during or upon completion of drilling. Seepage should be expected to vary with seasonal rainfall, cHmatic conditions, surface runoff, permeability of site soils, continuity of pervious materials, and other factors. These observations are limited and do not constitute a groundwater study. 3.4 EXPANSIVE SOIL CHARACTERISTICS The soil encountered at this site is considered to have low potential of expansive soil movements. Additionally, the presence of sandy soils will limit expansive soil movements . The magnitude of the shrink and swell will depend on moisture fluctuations that occur during and after construction. Moisture fluctuations typically occur due to seasonal cycles, but can also be influenced by grading and drainage, landscaping, groundwater conditions, and the presence of paving. Therefore, the amount of soil movement is difficult to determine due to the many unpredictable variables involved. To estimate the potential expansive soil movement for this site, the McDowell's (1959) Potential Vertical Rise (PVR) method has been used. The results of the laboratory tests, engineering judgment, and experience have also been considered. For a full seasonal moisture cycle the calculated soil PVR is about 1 inch or less at the ground surface, based on the 1 O foot borings. These soil movements are based on the subsurface conditions for seasonal moisture fluctuations. Actual soil movements will depend on the subsurface moisture fluctuations over the life of the structure. Soil movements may be less than those calculated if moisture variations are minimized after construction. However, soil movements , significantly larger than estimated, could occur due to inadequate site grading, poor drainage, ponding of rainfall, and/or leaky water or sprinkler lines. Site grading would be expected to alter PVR movements. 81290/ FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 7 KLEINFELDER 4 ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 ROADWAY DESIGN Detailed traffic volumes were not available; however, we assume that the roadway is classified as a low volume Residential-Rural Street. According to the City's pavement design standards Residential-Rural Streets require 25,000 annual equivalent 18-kip single axle lo~ds (ESAL) with a 0.0 percent growth factor and a 25-year design life. This results in approximately 625,000 ESALs over the 25-year design life. We understand that both flexible and rigid pavement sections are being considered. In order to calculate the capacity of the proposed section the following values were either assumed based on our experience, taken from the AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, or are as specified in the PDSM. • 85% Reliability (assumed) • 0.35 Overall Deviation rigid, and 0.45 for flexible (AASHTO) • 3,600 psi concrete strength at 28 days (assumed) • 4,050,000 psi Concrete Modulus of Elasticity (based on concrete strength) • 2. 7 Load Transfer Coefficient (based on reinforced pavement with edge support) • Raw Subgrade Resilient Modulus of 4800 psi (CBR=3 .8; 80% of CBR adj) • Lime Treated Subgrade Resilient Modulus of 11000 psi (CBR=11; 80% of CBR adj) • Modulus of Subgrade Reaction of 230 psi/in for rigid pavements with lime treated subgrade • 0.9 Drainage Coefficient (cct) for rigid, and 0.8 for flexible • 4.5 Initial Serviceability for rigid, and 4.2 for flexible (AASHTO) • 2.0 Terminal Serviceability (AASHTO) • Layer Coefficients of 0.42 for asphalt surface course, 0.40 for asphalt base course, 0.12 for crushed stone base, and 0.10 for lime treated clay subbase The recommended drainage coefficients in the PDSM are for a "Quality of Drainage" of "Very Poor," with the percent of time that the pavement structure is exposed to moisture levels approaching saturation to be "Greater Than 25%." The PDSM recommends the 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 8 KLEINFELDER use of a drainage coefficient of 0.4 for flexible pavements and 0.7 for rigid pavements but allows for higher coefficients when sandy or lean clays are present that will allow for better drainage than fat clay subgrades. Due to the presence of lean clay sandy soils at the site drainage coefficients of 0.8 for flexible and 0.9 for rigid have been selected. The drainage coefficient commonly used in this region for pavement design is typically equal to 1.0 . Conditions at the AASHTO road test represent a drainage coefficient value of 1.0, where the subdrainage was identified as poor. By using a drainage coefficient value of less than 1.0 in the pavement design it would indicate that the site conditions are worse that that of the AASHTO road test. Flat drainage situations where water might not drain readily could be justification for reducing the design drainage coefficient. The above parameters along with the calculated ESAL value were used to calculate the required pavement thickness for both rigid and flexible pavements. These calculations were performed using Pavement Analysis Software, WinPAS Version 1.0.4, based on the 1993 AASHTO Guide Procedure for the Design of Pavement Structures. The calculated sections are as follows : Flexible Pavement -Option 1 3.0 inches Type D hot mix asphalt surface course 4.5 inches Type B hot mix asphalt base course 6.0 inches lime-treated subgrade Flexible Pavement -Option 2 2.0 inches Type D hot mix asphalt surface course 4.0 inches Type B hot mix asphalt base course 6.0 inches crushed stone base course 6.0 inches lime-treated subgrade Rigid Pavement 6.0 inches reinforced Portland cement concrete 6.0 inches lime-treated subgrade The design Portland cement concrete pavement section should be reinforced and designed with appropriate joints as detailed in the PDSM. Note that the above pavement sections do not consider the use of a permeable base layer with a connected edge drainage system, as these systems are not commonly 81290/ FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 9 KLEINFELDER used within the City of Fort Worth. The inclusion of a drainage system could be used to reduce the thickness of the sections. Please contact us if a drainage system is desired. 4.2 TREATED SUBGRADE RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the PDSM, City pavements require a treated subgrade if the raw subgrade has a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) less than 3. CBR testing was not performed on the subgrade, however unconsolidated-undrained triaxial tests performed on representative samples of the subgrade material and converted to CBR based on the PDSM. Correlations indicate that subgrade soils have CBR values ranging from 6.8 to 10.3 when saturated. Although the CBR value is greater than the required value of 3 and swell testing indicates that the subgrade has a swell ratio of less than 1, we recommend treatment of the subgrade to form a non-pumping base for roadway construction. Based on our experience, a lime treated subgrade is appropriate. An application rate of 6 percent, or approximately 27 pounds, of hydrated lime per square yard of surface area is recommended for the 6-inch subbase thickness. The lime treated subgrade should extend a minimum of 12 inches outside the curb line when possible to improve pavement edge support and also lessen the "edge effect" associated with shrinkage during dry periods. The use of sand or select fill as a leveling course below pavement should be prohibited. These soils can allow water inflow between the pavement and subgrade, causing heave and strength loss within the subgrade soil. Construction of the lime treated subgrade should follow Section 6 of the PDSM and TxDOT Item 260 as listed in Appendix D of the PDSM. The recommended addition to the standard is that the cured mixture should have a minimum of 100 percent passing the 1 %-inch sieve and a minimum of 60 percent passing the No. 4 sieve. Additionally, the plasticity index of the lime/soil mixture should be 15 or less. This application rate can be used for estimating purposes; however, the actual application rate should be determined at the time of construction by sampling the finish subgrade soil and testing to determine the optimum lime content. Additionally, CBR testing should be performed on the lime treated subgrade to verify the assumed lime treated subgrade CBR value at the optimum lime content as determined for the finished subgrade (per PDSM). 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 10 KLEINFELDER The treated subgrade should be compacted to a minimum of 98 percent of Standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) at a moisture content ranging from optimum to 4 percent above optimum (0 to +4). The moisture content and density of the completed subgrade section must be maintained until the paving is complete. Note that the roadway is located in an area that is not known to contain appreciable quantities of soluble sulfates. As such, the risk of sulfate-induced heaving is considered low. To confirm this soluble sulfate tests were performed using Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Method 146-E. The results of the tests performed yielded soluble sulfate readings ranging from 120 to 160 parts per million (ppm). The average reading is below the level at which significant sulfate-induced heave is considered likely to occur. 4.3 EARTHWORK Earthwork should be performed in accordance with the requirements set forth in Sections 5 and 6, and Appendix C of the PDSM. In addition to these items, the project area should be stripped of existing pavement, vegetation, roots, organic material, and debris at the start of construction. The stripping depth should be based on field observations with attention given to excessively wet soils, and deleterious materials. After excavating, the stripped subgrade should be firm and able to support the construction equipment without displacement. Soft or yielding subgrade should be corrected and made stable before construction proceeds. Continuous proof rolling should be used to detect soft spots or pumping subgrade areas as detailed in the PDSM. The proof rolling is intended to locate unstable areas , but will also have the advantage of providing additional compaction of the proof rolled soil. When compaction of the existing subgrade or fill material is necessary, the untreated soil should be compacted to a minimum of 95 percent of the maximum dry density as determined by the Standard Proctor test, ASTM D 698. In conjunction with the compacting operations, this fill material should be brought to between 1 percent below and 4 percent above the optimum moisture content (-1 to +4). Fill material should be placed in loose horizontal lifts not exceeding 8 inches in uncompacted thickness. The fill material should be uniform with respect to material 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 11 KLEINFELDER type and moisture content. Clods and chunks of material should be broken and the fill material mixed so that a material of uniform moisture and density is obtained for each lift. Water required to bring the fill material to the proper moisture content should be applied evenly through each layer. Field density tests should be taken as each lift of fill material is placed as detailed in the PDSM. Each lift should be compacted, tested, and approved before another lift is added. The purpose of the field density tests is to provide some indication that uniform and adequate compaction is being obtained. The actual quality of the fill, as compacted, should be the responsibility of the contractor and satisfactory results from the tests should not be considered as a guarantee of the quality of the contractor's filling operations. 81290 / FW07R034 Copyright 2007 Kleinfelder 12 KLEINFELDER 5 REPORT CLOSURE Recommendations contained in this report are based on our field observations and subsurface explorations, limited laboratory tests, and our present knowledge of the proposed construction. It is possible that soil conditions could vary between or beyond the points explored. If soil conditions are encountered during construction, which differ from those described herein, we should be notified immediately in order that a review may be made and any supplemental recommendations provided. If the scope of the · proposed construction, including the proposed loads or structural locations, changes from that described in this report, our recommendations should also be reviewed. We have prepared this report in substantial accordance with the generally accepted geotechnical engineering practice, as it exists in the site area at the time of our study. No warranty is express or implied. The recommendations provided in this report are based on the assumption that Kleinfelder will conduct an adequate program of tests and observations during the construction phase in order to evaluate compliance with our recommendations. This report may be used only by the client and only for the purposes stated within a reasonable time from its issuance, but in no event later than one year from the date of the report. Land or facility use, on and off-site conditions, regulations, or other factors may change over time, and additional work may be required with the passage of time. Any party other than the client who wishes to use this report shall notify Kleinfelder of such intended use. Based on the intended use of the report, Kleinfelder may require that additional work be performed and that an updated report be issued. Non- compliance with any of these requirements by the client or anyone else will release Kleinfelder from any liability resulting from the use of this report by any unauthorized party and client agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Kleinfelder from any claim or liability associated with such unauthorized use or non-compliance.

Provide job-control testing personnel meeting the requirements ofltem 421, "Hydraulic Cement Concrete." Provide and maintain testing equipment, including strength testing equipment at a location acceptable to the Engineer. Use of a commercial laboratory is acceptable. Maintain all testing equipment calibrated in accordance with pertinent test methods. Make strength-testing equipment available to the Engineer for verification testing. Provide the Engineer the opportunity to witness all tests. The Engineer may require a retest if not given the opportunity to witness. Furnish a copy of all test results to the Engineer daily. Check the first few concrete loads for slump, air, and temperature on start-up production days to check for concrete conformance and consistency. Sample and prepare strength test specimens (2 specimens per test) on the first day of production and for each 3,000 sq. yd. or fraction thereof of concrete pavement ther eafter. Prepare at least 1 set of strength-test specimens for each production day. Perform slump , air, and temperature tests each time strength specimens are made. Monitor concrete temperature to ensure that concrete is consistently within the temperature requirements . The Engineer will direct random job- control sampling and testing. Immediately investigate and take corrective action as approved if any Contractor test result, including tests performed for verification purposes, does not meet specification requirements. When job-control testing by the Contractor is waived by the plans, the Engineer will perform the testing; however, this does not waive the Contractor 's responsibility for providing materials and work in accordance with this Item. 1. Job-Control Strength. Unless otherwise shown on the plans or permitted by the Engineer, use 7-day job-control concrete strength testing in accordance with Tex-448-A or Tex-418-A. For 7-day job-control by flexural strength, use a flexural strength of 520 psi or a lower job-control strength value proven to meet a 28 -d ay flexural strength of 680 psi as correlated in accordance with Tex-427-A. For 7-day job-control by compressive strength, use a compressive strength of 3,200 psi or a lower job-control strength value proven to meet a 28-day compressive strength of 4,400 psi as correlated in accordance with Tex-427-A. Job control of concrete strength may be correlated to an age other than 7 days in accordance with Tex-427-A when approved. Job-control strength of Class HES concrete is based on the required strength and time. When a job-control concrete strength test value is more than 10% below the required job-control strength or when 3 consecutive job-control strength values fall below the required job-control strength , investigate the strength test procedures, the quality of materials, the concrete production operations, and other possible problem areas to determine the cause. Take necessary action to correct the problem, including redesign of the concrete mix if needed. The Engineer may suspend concrete paving if the Contractor is unable to identify, document, and correct the cause oflow strength test values in a timely manner. If any job-control strength is more than 15% below the required job-control strength, the Engineer will evaluate the structural adequacy of the pavements . When directed, remove and replace pavements found to be structurally inadequate at no additional cost. 2. Split-Sample Verification Testing. Perform split-sample verification testing with the Engineer on random samples taken and split by the Engineer at a rate of at least 1 for every 10 job-control samples. The Engineer will evaluate the results of split-sample verification testing. Immediately investigate and take corrective action as approved when results of sp lit-sample verification testing differ more than the allowable differences shown in Table 1, or when the average of 10 job-contr ol strength results and the Engineer's split-sample strength result differ by more than 10%. Table 1 V "fi f T f L. ·t en 1ca 100 es mg 1ml S Test Method Allowable Differences Temperature, Tex-422-A 2°F Slump, Tex-415 -A I in. Air content, Tex-414-A or Tex-416-A 1% Flexural strength, Tex-448 -A 19 % Compress ive strength , Tex-418-A 10% C. Reinforcing Steel and Joint Assemblies . Accurately place and secure in position all reinforcing steel as shown on the plans. Place dowels at mid-depth of the pavement slab , parallel to the surface. Place dowels for transverse contraction joints parallel to the pavement edge. Tolerances for location and align ment of dowels will be shown on the plans. Stagger the longitudin al reinforcement splices to avoid having more than 1/3 of the sp lices within a 2-ft. longitudinal length of each lane of the pavement. Use multiple-piece tie bars or drill and epoxy grout tie bars at longitudinal construction joints. Verify that tie bars that are drilled and epoxied into concrete at longitudinal construction joints develop a pullout resistance equal to a minimum of 3/4 of the yield strength of the steel after 7 days. Test 15 bars using ASTM E 488, except that alternate approved equipment may be used. All 15 tested bars must meet the required pullout strength. If any of the test results do not meet the required minimum pullout strength , perform corrective measures to provide equivalent pullout resistance. Repair damage from testing. Acceptable corrective measures include but are not limited to installation of additional or longer tie bars. 1. Manual Placement. Secure reinforcing bars at alternate intersections with wire ties or lo cking support chairs. Tie all splices with wire . 2. Mechanical Placement. If mechanical placement of reinforcement results in steel misalignment or improper location, poor concrete consolidation, or other inadequacies, complete the work using manual methods. D. Joints . Install joints as shown on the plans. Joint sealants are not required on concrete pavement that is to be overlaid with as phaltic materials. Clean and seal joints in accordance with Item 438, "Cleaning and Sealing Joints and Cracks (Rigid Pavement and Bridge Decks)." Repair excessive spalling of the joint saw groove using an approved method before installing the sealant. Seal all joints before opening the pavement to all traffic. When placing of concrete is stopped , install a rigid transverse bulkhead, accurately notched for the reinforcing steel and shaped accurately to the cross-section of the pavement. 1. Placing Reinforcement at Joints. Where the plans require an assembly of parts at pavement joints, complete and place the assembly at the required location and elevation with all parts rigidly secured in the required position . Accurately notch joint materials for the reinforcing steel. 2. Transverse Construction Joints. a. Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (CRCP). Install additional longitudinal reinforcement through the bulkhead when shown on the plans. Protect the reinforcing steel immediately beyond the construction joint from damage , vibration , and impact. b. Concrete Pavement Contraction Design (CPCD). When the placing of concrete is intentionally stopped, install and rigidly secure a complete joint assembly and bulkhead in the pl anned transverse contraction joint location. When the placing of concrete is unintentionally stopped, install a transverse construction joint either at a planned transverse contraction joint location or mid-slab between planned transverse contraction joints . For mid-slab construction joints, install tie bars of the size and spacing used in the longitudinal joints. c. Curb Joints . Provide joints in the curb of the same type and location as the adjacent pavement. Use expansion joint material of the same thiclmess, type, and quality required for the pavement and of the section shown for the curb. Extend expansion joints through the curb. Construct curb joints at all transverse pavement j oints. For non-monolithic curbs, place reinforcing steel into the plastic concrete pavement as shown on the plans unless otherwise approved. Form or saw the weakened plane joint across the full width of concrete pave ment and through the monolithic curbs. Construct curb joints in accordance with Item 529, "Concrete Curb, Gutter, and Combined Curb and Gutter." E. Placing and Removing Fo rms. Use clean and oiled forms . Secure forms on a base or firm subgrade that is accurately graded and that provides stable support without deflection and movement by form riding equipment. Pin every form at least at the middle and near each end. Tightly join and key form sections together to prevent relative displacement. Set side forms far enough in advance of concrete placement to permit in spection. Check conformity of the grade, alignment, and stability of forms immediately before placing concrete, and m ake all neces sary correction s. Use a straightedge or other approved method to test the top of forms to ensure that the ride quality requirements for the completed pavemen t will be met. Stop pavin g operations if forms settle or deflect more than 1/8 in. under finishing operations. Reset forms to line and grade, and refini sh the concrete surfa ce to correct grade. A void damage to the edge of the pavement when removing forms. Repair damage resultin g from form removal and honeycombed areas with a mortar mix within 24 hr. after form removal unles s otherwise approved. Clean joint face an d repair honeycombed or damaged areas within 24 hr. after a bulkhead for a transverse construction joint has been removed unle ss otherwise app roved . When forms are removed before 72 hr. after concrete placement, promptly apply membrane curing compound to the edge of the concrete pavement. Forms that are not the sa me depth as the pavement but are within 2 in. of that depth are permitted if the subbase is trenched or the full width and length of the form base is supported with a firm material to produce the required pavement thiclmess. Promptly repair the form trench after use. Use flexible or curved wood or metal forms for curves of 100-ft. radius or less. F. Concrete Delivery. Clean delivery equipment as necessary to prevent accu mulation of old concrete before loading fre sh concrete. Use agitated delivery equipment for concrete designed to have a slump of more than 5 in . Segregated concrete is subject to rejection. Place agitated concrete within 60 min. after batching . Place non-agitated concrete within 45 min. after batching. In hot weather or under conditions causing quick setting of the concrete, times may be reduced by the Engineer. Time limitati ons may be extended if the Contractor can demonstrate that the concrete can be prop er ly placed , consolidated, and finished without the use of additional water. G. Concrete Placement. Do not allow the pavement edge to deviate from the established paving line b y more than 1/2 in. at any point. Place the concrete as near as possible to ' its final location, and minimi ze segregation and rehandling. Where hand spreading is necessary, distribute concrete using shove ls . Do not use rakes or vibrators to distribute concrete. 1. Pavement. Consolidate all concrete by approved mechanical vibrators operated on the front of the paving equipment. Use immersion-type vibrators that simultaneously consolidate the full width of the placement when machine finishing. Keep vibrators from dislodging reinforcement. Use hand- operated vibrators to consolidate concrete in areas not accessible to the machine-mounted vibrators. Do not operate machine-mounted vibrators while the paving equipment is stationary. Vibrator operations are subject to review . 2. Date Imprinting. Imprint dates in the fresh concrete indicating the date of the concrete placement. Make impressions approximately I ft. from the outside longitudinal construction joint or edge of pavement and approximately 1 ft . from the transverse construction joint at the beginning of the placement day. Orient the impressions to be read from the outside shoulder in the direction of final traffic. Impress date in DD-MM-YY format. Imprinting of the Contractor name or logo in similar size characters to the date is allowed. 3. Curbs. Where curbs are placed separately, conform to the requirements ofltem 529 , "Concrete Curb, Gutter, and Combined Curb and Gutter." 4. Temperature Restrictions. Place concrete that is between 40°F and 95 °F when measured in accordance with Tex-422-A at the time of discharge, except that concrete may be used ifit was already in transit when the temperature was found to exceed the allowable maximum. Take immediate corrective action or cease concrete production when the concrete temperature exceeds 95 °F. Do not place concrete when the ambient temperature in the shade is below 40°F and falling unless approved . Concrete may be placed when the ambient temperature in the shade is above 35 °F and rising or above 40°F . When temperatures warrant protection again st freezing, protect the pavement with an approved insulating material capable of protecting the concrete for the specified curing period. Submit for approval proposed measures to protect the concrete from anticipated freezing weather for the first 72 hr. after placement. Repair or replace all concrete damaged by freezing. H. Spreading and Finishing. Finish all concrete pavement with approved self-propelled equipment. Use power-driven spreaders , power-driven vibrators, power-driven strike-off, and screed, or approved alternate equipment. Use the transverse finishing equipment to compact and strike off the concrete to the required section and grade without surface voids . Use float equipment for final finishing. Use concrete with a consistency that allows comp letion of all finishing operations without addition of water to the surface. Use the minimal amount of water fog mist necessary to maintain a moist surface. Reduce fogging if float or straightedge operations result in excess slurry. 1. Finished Surface. Perform sufficient checks with long-handled 10-ft. and 15-ft. straightedges on the plastic concrete to ensure that the final surface is within the tolerances specified in Surface Test A in Item 585, "Ride Quality for Pavement Surfaces." Check with the straightedge parallel to the centerline. 2. Maintenance of Surface Moisture. Prevent surface drying of the pavement before application of the curing system. Accomplish this by fog applications of evaporation retardant on the pavement surface . Apply evaporation retardant at the rate recommended by the manufacturer. Reapply the evaporation retardant as needed to maintain the concrete surface in a moist condition until curing system is applied. Do not use evaporation retardant as a finishing aid. Failure to take acceptable precautions to prevent surface drying of the pavement will be cause for shut down of pavement operations . 3. Surface Texturing. Perform surface texturing using a combination of a carpet drag and metal tining. Complete final texturing before the concrete has attained its initial set. Draw the carpet drag longitudinally along the pavement surface with the carpet contact surface area adjusted to provide a satisfactory coarsely textured surface. A metal-tine texture finish is required unless otherwise shown on the plans. Provide the metal-tine finish immediately after the concrete surface has set enough for consistent tining. Operate the metal-tine device to obtain grooves spaced at 1 in ., approximately 3/16 in. deep, with a minimum depth of 1/8 in ., and approximately 1/12 in. wide . Do not overlap a previously tined area. Use manual methods for achieving similar re sults on ramps and other irregular sections of pavements. Repair damage to the edge of the slab and joints immediately after texturing . Do not tine pavement that will be overlaid. 4. Small or Irregular Placements . Where machine placements and finishing of concrete pavement are not practical, use hand equipment and procedures that produce a consolidated and finished pavement section to the line and grade. 5. Emergency Procedures. Use hand-operated equipment for applying texture, evaporation retardant, and cure in the event of equipment breakdown. I. Curing. Keep the concrete pavement surface from drying by water fogging until the curing material has been applied. Maintain and promptly repair damage to curing materials on exposed surfaces of concrete pavement continuously for at least 3 curing days. A curing day is defined as a 24-hr. period when either the temperature taken in the shade away from artificial heat is above 50 °F for at least 19 hr. or when the surface temperature of the concrete is maintained above 40°F for 24 hr. Curing begins when the concrete curing system has been applied . Stop concrete paving if curing compound is not being applied promptly and maintained adequately. Other methods of curing in accordance with · Item 420, "Concrete Structures," may be used when specified or approved. 1. Membrane Curing. After texturing and immediately after the free surface moisture has disappeared, spray the concrete surface uniformly with 2 coats of membrane curing compound at an individual application rate of not more than 180 sq. ft. per gallon. Apply the first co at within 10 min. after completing texturing operations. Apply the second coat within 30 min. after completing texturing operations. Before and during application, maintain curing compounds in a uniformly agitated condition, free of settlement. Do not thin or dilute the curing compound. Where the coating shows discontinuities or other defects or ifrain falls on the newly coated surface before the film has dried enough to resist damage, apply additional compound at the same rate of coverage to correct the damage. Ensure that the curing compound coats the sides of the tining grooves. 2. Asphalt Curing. When an asphaltic concrete overlay is required, apply a uniform coating of asphalt curing at a rate of 90 to 180 sq. ft. per gallon as required. Apply curing immediately after texturing and just after the free moisture (sheen) has disappeared. Obtain approval to add water to the emulsion to improve spray distribution. Maintain the asphalt application rate when using diluted emulsions. Maintain the emulsion in a mixed condition during application. 3. Curing Class HES Concrete. For all Class HES concrete pavement, provide membrane curing in accordance with Section 360.4.I.1, "Membrane Curing," followed promptly by water curing until opening strength is achieved but not less than 24 hr. J. Sawing Joints. Saw joints to the depth shown on the plans as soon as sawing can be accomplished without damage to the pavement regardless of time of day or weather conditions. Some minor raveling of the saw cut is acceptable . Use a chalk line, string line, sawing template, or other approved method to provide a true joint alignment. Provide enough saws to match the paving production rate to ensure sawing completion at the earliest possible time to avoid uncontrolled cracking. Reduce paving production if necessary to ensure timely sawing of joints. Promptly restore membrane cure damaged within the first 72 hr. of curing. K. Protection of Pavement and Opening to Traffic. Testing for early opening is the responsibility of the Contractor regardless of job-control testing responsibilities unless otherwise shown in the plans or directed . Testing result interpretation for opening to traffic is subject to the approval of the Engineer. 1. Protection of Pavement. Erect and maintain barricades and other standard and approved devices that will exclude all vehicles and equipment from the newly placed pavement for the periods specified . Before opening to traffic, protect the pavement from damage due to cro ssings using approved methods . Where a detour is not readily avail able or economically feasible, an occasional crossing of the roadway with overweight equipment may be permitted for relocating equipment only but not for hauling material. When an occasional crossing of overweight equipment is permitted, temporary matting or other approved methods may be required. Maintain an adequate supply of sheeting or other material to cover and protect fresh concrete surface from weather damage. Apply as needed to protect the pavement surface from weather. 2. Opening Pavement to All Traffic. Pavement that is 7 days old may be opened to all traffic. Before opening to traffic, clean pavement, place stable material against the pavement edges, seal joints, and perform all other traffic safety related work. 3. Opening Pavement to Construction Equipment. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, concrete pavement may be opened early to concrete paving equipment and related delivery equipment after the concrete is at least 48 hr. old and opening strength has been demonstrated in accordance with Section 360.4.K.4, "Early Opening to All Traffic," before curing is complete. Keep delivery equipment at least 2 ft. from the edge of the concrete pavement. Keep tracks of the paving equipment at least 1 ft. from the pavement edge . Protect textured surfaces from the paving equipment. Restore damaged membrane curing as soon as possible. Repair pavement damaged by paving or delivery equipment before opening to all traffic. 4. Early Opening to All Traffic. Concrete pavement may be opened after curing is complete and the concrete has attained a flexural strength of 450 psi or a compressive strength of2,800 psi, except that pavement using Class HES concrete may be opened after 24 hr. if the specified strength is achieved. a. Strength Testing. Test concrete specimens cured under the same conditions as the portion of the pavement involved. b. Maturity Method. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, the maturity method, Tex-426-A, may be used to estimate concrete strength for early opening pavement to traffic. Install at least 2 maturity thermocouples for each day's placement in areas where the maturity method will be used for early opening. Thermocouples, when used, will be installed near the days final placement for areas being evaluated for early opening. Use test specimens to verify the strength-maturity relationship in accordance with Tex-426-A, starting with the first day's placement corresponding to the early opening pavement section. After the first day, verify the strength-maturity relationship at least every 10 days of production. Establish a new strength-maturity relationship when the strength specimens deviate more than 10% from the maturity-estimated strengths . Suspend use of the maturity method for opening pavements to traffic when the strength-maturity relationship deviates by more than 10% until a new strength-maturity relationship is established. When the maturity method is used intermittently or for only specific areas, the frequency of verification will be as detennined by the Engineer. 5. Emergency Opening to Traffic. Under emergency conditions, when the pavement is at least 72 hr. old, open the pavement to traffic when directed in writing. Remove all obstructing materials, place stable material against the pavement edges, and perform other work involved in providing for the safety of traffic as required for emergency opening . L. Pavement Thickness. The Engineer will check the thickness in accordance with Tex-423-A unless other methods are shown on the plans. The Engineer will perform 1 thickness test consisting of l reading at approximately the center of each lane every 500 ft. or fraction thereof. Core where directed in accordance with Tex-424-A to verify deficiencies of more than 0.2 in. from plan thickness and to detennine the limits of deficiencies of more than 0.75 in. from plan thickness. Fill core holes using a concrete mixture and method approved by the Engineer. 1. Thickness Deficiencies Greater than 0.2 in. When any depth test measured in accordance with Tex-423-A is deficient by more than 0.2 in. from the plan thickness, take one 4-in. diameter core at that location to verify the measurement. If the core is deficient by more than 0.2 in. but not by more than 0 .75 in. from the plan thickness, take 2 additional cores from the unit (as defined in Section 360.4.L.3, "Pavement Units for Payment Adjustment") at intervals of at least 150 ft. and at location s selected by the Engineer, and detennine the thickness of the unit for payment purposes by averaging the length of the 3 cores. In calculations of the average thickness of this unit of pavement, measurements in excess of the specified thickness by more than 0.2 in . will be considered as the specified thickness plus 0.2 in . 2. Thickness Deficiencies Greater than 0.75 in. If a core is deficient by more than 0.75 in., take additional cores at 10 ft. intervals in each direction parallel to the centerline to determine the boundary of the deficient area. The Engineer will evaluate any area of pavement found deficient in thickness by more than 0 .75 in . but not more than 1 in. As directed, remove and replace the deficient areas without additional compensation or retain deficient areas without compensation. Remove and replace any area of pavement found deficient in thickness by more than 1 in. without additional compensation. 3. Pavement Units for Payment Adjustment. Limits for applying a payment adjustment for deficient pavement thickness from 0.20 in. to not more than 0 .75 in . are 500 ft. of pavement in each lane. Lane width will be as shown on typical sections and pavement design standards . For greater than 0.75 in. deficient thickness , the limits for applying zero payment or requiring removal will be defined by coring or equivalent nondestructive means as determined by the Engineer. The remaining portion of the unit determined to be less than 0.75 in. deficient will be subject to the payment adj ustment based on the average core thickness at each end of the 10 ft. interval investigation as determined by the Engineer. Shoulders will be measured for thickness unless otherwise shown on the plans. Shoulders 6 ft. wide or wider will be considered as lanes . Shoulders less than 6 ft. wide will be considered part of the adjacent lane. Limits for applying payment adjustment for deficient pavement thickness for ramps , widenings, acceleration and deceleration lanes, and other miscellaneous areas are 500 ft. in length . Areas less than 500 ft. in length will be individually evaluated for payment adjustment based on the plan area. M. Ride Quality.

In adjusting the contract time for completion of work, consideration will be given to unforseeable causes beyond the control of and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor, including but limited to acts of the public enemy, acts of the Owner, fire, flood, tornadoes, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, or delays of sub-contractors due to such causes. When the date of completion is based on a calendar day bid, a request for extension of time because of inclement weather will not be considered. A request for extension of time due to inability to obt~in supplies and materi~ls wi}l be considered only when a review of the Contractor's purchase order dates and other pertinent data as requested by the Engineer indicates that the Contractor has made a bonafide attempt to secure delivery on schedule. This shall include efforts to obtain the supplies and materials from alternate sources in case the first source cannot make delivery. If satisfactory execution and completion of the contract should require work and materials in greater amounts or quantities than those set forth in the approved Contract Documents, then the contract time may be increased by Change Order. C7-7.9 DELAYS: The Contr~ctor shall receive no compensation for delays or hindrances to the work, except when direct and unavoidable extra cost to the Contractor is caused by the ( failure of the City to provide information or material, if C7-7 (4) any, which is to be furnished by the City. When such ext ra compensation is claimed a written statement thereof shall be presented by the Contractor . to the Engineer and if by him found correct shall be approved and referred by him to the Council for final approval or disapproval: and the action thereon by the Council shall be final and binding. If delay is caused by specific orders given by the Engineers to sto p work, or by the performance of extra work, or by the failure of the City to provide material or necessary instructions for carrying on the work, then such delay will entitle the Contractor to an equivalent extension of time, his application for which shall, however, be subject to the approval of the City Council: and no such extension of time shall release the Contractor or the surety on his performance bond from all his obligations hereunder which shall remain in full force until the discharge of the contract.

Th e number of days indica t ed shall be a realistic estimate of the time required to complete the work covered by the specific contract being bid upon. The amount of time so stated by the successful bidder or the City will become the time of completion specified in the Contract Documents. For each calendar day that any work shall remain uncompleted after the time specified in the Contract Documents, or the increased time granted by the Owner, or as automatically increased by additional work or materials ordered after the contract is signed, the sum per day given in the following schedule, unless otherwise specified in other parts of the Contract Documents, will be deducted from monies due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as liquidated damages suffered by the Owner.

C7-7.ll SUSPENSION BY COURT ORDER: The Contractor shall suspend operations on such part or parts of the work ordered by any court, and will not be entitled to additional compensation by virtue of such court order. Neither will he be liable .to the City in the event the work is suspended by a Court Order.
