1.“Or-Equal” Items: If in City’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by
Contractor is functionally equal to that named and sufficiently similar so that no change in
related Work will be required, it may be considered by City as an “or-equal” item, in which
case review and approval of the proposed item may, in City’s sole discretion, be

2) it will conform substantially to the detailed requirements of the item named in the
Contract Documents.
2.Substitute Items:
a. If in City’s sole discretion an item of material or equipment proposed by Contractor does
not qualify as an “or-equal” item under Paragraph 5.05.A.1, it may be submitted as a
proposed substitute item.
b. Contractor shall submit sufficient information as provided below to allow City to
determine if the item of material or equipment proposed is essentially equivalent to that
named and an acceptable substitute therefor. Requests for review of proposed substitute
items of material or equipment will not be accepted by City from anyone other than
Contractor.
c. Contractor shall make written application to City for review of a proposed substitute item
of material or equipment that Contractor seeks to furnish or use. The application shall

indirectly from use of such substitute item, including costs of redesign and Damage
Claims of other contractors affected by any resulting change.
B.Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a specific means, method, technique,
sequence, or procedure of construction is expressly required by the Contract Documents,
Contractor may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure
of construction approved by City. Contractor shall submit sufficient information to allow City, in
City’s sole discretion, to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly
called for by the Contract Documents. Contractor shall make written application to City for
review in the same manner as those provided in Paragraph 5.05.A.2.
C.City’s Evaluation: City will be allowed a reasonable time within which to evaluate each
proposal or submittal made pursuant to Paragraphs 5.05.A and 5.05.B. City may require

A. Tolerances:1
1. The staked location of any improvement or facility should be as accurate as2
practical and necessary. The degree of precision required is dependent on many3
factors all of which must remain judgmental. The tolerances listed hereafter are4
based on generalities and, under certain circumstances, shall yield to specific5
requirements. The surveyor shall assess any situation by review of the overall plans6
and through consultation with responsible parties as to the need for specific7
tolerances.8
a. Earthwork: Grades for earthwork or rough cut should not exceed 0.1 ft. vertical9
tolerance. Horizontal alignment for earthwork and rough cut should not exceed10
1.0 ft. tolerance.11
b. Horizontal alignment on a structure shall be within .0.1ft tolerance.12
c. Paving or concrete for streets, curbs, gutters, parking areas, drives, alleys and13
walkways shall be located within the confines of the site boundaries and,14
occasionally, along a boundary or any other restrictive line. Away from any15
restrictive line, these facilities should be staked with an accuracy producing no16
more than 0.05ft. tolerance from their specified locations.17
d. Underground and overhead utilities, such as sewers, gas, water, telephone and18
electric lines, shall be located horizontally within their prescribed areas or19
easements. Within assigned areas, these utilities should be staked with an20
accuracy producing no more than 0.1 ft tolerance from a specified location.21
e. The accuracy required for the vertical location of utilities varies widely. Many22
underground utilities require only a minimum cover and a tolerance of 0.1 ft.23
should be maintained. Underground and overhead utilities on planned profile,24
but not depending on gravity flow for performance, should not exceed 0.1 ft.25
tolerance.26
B. Surveying instruments shall be kept in close adjustment according to manufacturer’s27
specifications or in compliance to standards. The City reserves the right to request a28
calibration report at any time and recommends regular maintenance schedule be29
performed by a certified technician every 6 months.30
1. Field measurements of angles and distances shall be done in such fashion as to31
satisfy the closures and tolerances expressed in Part 3.1.A.32
2. Vertical locations shall be established from a pre-established benchmark and33
checked by closing to a different bench mark on the same datum.34
3. Construction survey field work shall correspond to the client’s plans. Irregularities35
or conflicts found shall be reported promptly to the City.36
4. Revisions, corrections and other pertinent data shall be logged for future reference.37

appropriate repair limits. For Jointed Reinforced Concrete Pavement (JRCP), any 1
slab identified for repair must be fully removed and replaced—small, localized 2
repairs are not permitted. However, partial panel replacement may be allowed if the 3
original panel exceeds 20 feet in length. In such cases, the panel may be divided into 4
two sections, and a transverse dummy joint must be added to ensure that each section 5
does not exceed 15 feet in length. 6
B. Concrete pavement removal 7
3. Provide concrete pavement removal equipment including chipping hammers or 8
hydro-demolition equipment for bulk concrete removal; steel chains, lift pins, and a 9
crane or front-end loader for lifting and loading pavement onto a flatbed or dump 10
truck; a maximum 40-lb. drill with tungsten carbide bits; and an air compressor 11
equipped with oil-removal filters capable of delivering air to clear dust and debris. 12
4. Saw-cut the concrete using diamond-blade saws through the full depth of the 13
concrete slab. Saw-cutting with diamond-blade saws will result in a smooth cut 14
surface with little damage to the surrounding concrete. Carbide-tooth wheel saws can 15
cause damage to the surrounding concrete and are not permitted for saw-cutting for 16
full-depth pavement repairs. The saw-cut concrete panels should be removed, and the 17
concrete placed as quickly as possible. Schedule work so that concrete placement 18
follows full-depth saw-cutting by no more than 7 days unless otherwise approved by 19
the project manager. 20
5. Once the saw-cut for the pavement slab is complete, remove the slab by lifting the 21
slab with a minimum disturbance to the base materials and surrounding concrete. Do 22
not spall or fracture concrete adjacent to the repair area. Saw-cut and remove 23
additional concrete as directed, after slab removal, if distresses are found in the 24
surrounding concrete pavement. Repair damages to concrete pavement caused by the 25
Contractor’s operation without additional compensation. The breakup method for 26
removing concrete slabs is not allowed, as it could disturb the base and cause damage 27
to the surrounding concrete. 28
6. Completely remove all loose or damaged base material, ensuring no unstable material 29
remains. Recompact the base to the satisfaction of the project manager or inspector. 30
Before concrete placement, level the base layer using Type A, Grade 1-2 flexible 31
base to match the original grade of the concrete slab or as otherwise directed. 32
C. Base Material 33
7. Provide Type A, Grade 1-2 flexible base material in accordance with City 34
Specification 32 11 23, for flexible base repairs. In the areas where base repairs are 35
required, place a minimum of 8 inches of flexible base over a compacted subgrade, 36
unless otherwise directed by the Project Manager. If three or more consecutive 37
concrete panels require replacement, an approved geogrid material may be installed 38
on top of the compacted subgrade prior to placing the flexible base. 39
8. Compact the flexible base materials to a minimum 95% proctor with -2 to +4 of 40
optimum moisture content. Level the base layer with Type A, Grade 1-2 flexible base 41
to the original grade of the concrete slab or as directed before concrete placement. 42
Place concrete directly onto the compacted base layer unless otherwise directed. 43
D. Mix Design 44
1. Obtain approval for the repair hydraulic cement concrete mix design 10 days prior to 45
beginning any repair work. The selection of concrete mix should be based on the time 46
for opening the road to traffic and temperature range during the repair. 47

2. Hydraulic cement concrete mix design. Provide Class HES concrete in accordance 1
with City spec Section 32 13 13, “Concrete Paving”, and designed to attain a 2
minimum compressive strength of 3,000 psi within the designated timeframe if the 3
timeframe designated for opening the road to traffic is less than 72 hr. (3-days) after 4
concrete placement. Otherwise, provide Class H concrete conforming to City spec 5
Section 32 13 13, “Concrete Paving”. 6
E. Concrete Pavement 7
1. Thickness: The new concrete pavement thickness shall match the existing concrete 8
pavement thickness. However, the new concrete pavement shall be constructed with 9
minimum thicknesses of 9 inches for Arterial and Industrial streets, 7 inches for 10
Collector streets, and 6 inches for Residential streets, regardless of the existing 11
pavement thickness. 12
2. Tie bars: Place tie bars to restore the continuity of the concrete pavement as shown 13
on the details in the contract document. Drill holes into the existing concrete to a 14
minimum depth of 6 inches, unless otherwise directed. Use a drill bit with a diameter 15
1/8 inch larger than the diameter of the tie bars. Clean each hole thoroughly with a 16
wire brush and compressed air to remove all dust and moisture. Only cartridge or 17
machine applicator epoxy systems are permitted. Apply epoxy in accordance with the 18
manufacturer's instructions. Insert the tip of the epoxy cartridge or machine 19
applicator into the back of the hole and inject Type III, Class C epoxy, ensuring the 20
hole is filled completely. Immediately insert the tie bars into the filled holes. Ensure 21
that the bond strength of the epoxy-grouted tie bars achieves a pullout strength of at 22
least 75% of the tie bar’s yield strength, tested in accordance with ASTM E488 and 23
within the epoxy manufacturer’s recommended curing time. If the specified pull-out 24
strength is not achieved, increase the embedment depth and retest. Other variables, 25
such as epoxy application and hole cleanout, can also be adjusted to improve pull-out 26
strength. The failure of drilled and epoxied bars to achieve the required pull-out 27
strength is typically due to inadequate filling of the drilled holes with epoxy, rather 28
than the length of embedment. Complete all tie bar testing prior to starting repair 29
work. All activities related to pullout testing and corrective measures shall be at the 30
Contractor’s expense. 31
3. Deformed reinforcing bars: Install new deformed reinforcing steel bars matching the 32
size and spacing specified in the plans or details in the contract document. Comply 33
with ACI 318 for minimum lap of spliced bars where not specified on the Drawings. 34
Provide and place supports to securely hold the new reinforcing steel in place. 35
4. Dowel bars: Place dowel bars as shown on the details in the contract document or 36
plans for jointly reinforced concrete pavement (JRCP). Provide and place supports to 37
securely hold the dowel bars in place. The spacing between transverse joints shall not 38
exceed 15 feet. 39
5. After installing the required reinforcing steel, place the concrete directly onto the 40
properly compacted base. Mix, place, cure, and test the concrete according to the 41
City’s concrete paving specification, Section 32 13 13 – Concrete Paving. Broom-42
finish the surface unless otherwise indicated in the plans or details in the contract 43
document. 44
6. Perform a timely saw-cut at transverse contraction joints for JRCP in accordance 45
with City specification, Section 32 13 13 – Concrete Paving. 46
7. Clean and seal transverse contraction joints with an approved sealant in accordance 47
with City specification, Section 32 13 13 – Concrete Paving. 48

8. Ensure the new pavement matches with the grade and alignment of existing concrete 1
pavement. 2
9. Concrete pavement may be opened to traffic when specified strength is achieved. 3
Unless the pavement is required to be open to traffic within 72 hours, use a standard 4
concrete mix instead of a high-early strength (HES) concrete mix. The use of HES 5
concrete during the summer, when ambient temperatures are high, can result in 6
excessive heat of hydration and premature pavement distress due to thermal cracking. 7
It may also lead to increased drying shrinkage, particularly near the surface. Proper 8
curing of HES mixes is essential to minimize map cracking caused by large 9
temperature gradients and high evaporation rates. 10
3.5 CONCRETE SPALL REPAIR 11
A. Description 12
1. Repair spalling and partial-depth failures in concrete pavement using Type VIII 13
epoxy that meets ASTM C 881 Type I or IV, rapid-set concrete that meets DMS-14
4655, “Concrete Repair Materials,” Type “B.”, or approved concrete mix designs 15
B. Spall category 16
1. Spalls are categorized based on severity of damage. Type of repair material and 17
installation procedures differ based on spall category. Spalls are categorized as 18
minor, intermediate, or major based on severity. Spall repair materials and methods 19
differ significantly depending on the spall depth, area, causes, and configurations. 20
Contractor shall use TxDOT procedure to perform spall repair. 21
a. Minor Spalls 22
1) Damage is less than 1 inch deep, and it covers an area less than 12 square 23
inches 24
2) Use epoxy or epoxy mortar that is formulated for concrete repair to repair 25
minor spalls 26
3) Use materials from TxDOT’s preapproved list for Type VIII epoxy. 27
Contractors may use other materials only if specifically authorized by the 28
City in writing. 29
b. Intermediate spall 30
1) Use only TxDOT pre-approved materials meeting the requirements of 31
DMS-4655, “Concrete Repair Materials.” 32
2) Form-and-pour materials are typically the best option in pavement 33
applications because they can be extended with coarse aggregate, which 34
significantly reduces the potential for shrinkage cracking. 35
c. Major Spall 36
1) Major spalls typically involve deep repairs to members in which capacity 37
has been reduced because of damage and deterioration. The repair is meant 38
to restore the capacity of the damaged concrete. Use approved mix designs 39
to repair major spalls. 40
3.6 CONCRETE CRACK REPAIR 41
A. Repair cracks in concrete pavement by epoxy injection, gravity filling, routing and 42
sealing, or surface sealing. 43

B. Concrete cracks as narrow as 0.002 inches can be injected with epoxy resin. However, it 1
is often difficult to effectively fill cracks that are narrower than 0.005 inches. It is 2
important to use a crack gauge to get accurate readings on crack widths. Contractors shall 3
use TxDOT crack sealing procedures to perform crack repairs. 4
C. Pressure-inject TxDOT Type IX low-viscosity epoxy resin (ASTM C 881 Type IV, 5
Grade 1) into concrete cracks to restore structural integrity of damaged members or to 6
prevent water and chloride infiltration. 7
D. Use TxDOT approved Type V or VII concrete epoxy adhesive for sealing the surface of 8
cracks. 9

2. The mix will not include more than 50% asphalt concrete. For bidding
purposes an 8” Depth Cement Treated Base requires 0.0075 GA/SY or
128SY/GA.
3.4 INSTALLATION
A. General
1. Uniformly place cement dry or as a slurry. Uniformly distribute Liquid
Soil Stabilizer and apply only on an area where the mixing, compacting,
and finishing operations can be completed during the same working day.
2. Do not start treatment operation unless the air temperature is at the
minimum application temperature and rising. The temperature will be
taken in the shade and way from artificial heat. Do not apply when, in the
opinion of the Engineer, weather conditions are unsuitable.
B. Dry Placing
1. Before applying cement, sprinkle the prepared roadway with diluted add-
mixture Liquid Soil Stabilizer until the desired quantity of diluted add-
mixture Liquid Soil Stabilizer is evenly distributed over the area to be
treated. If necessary, continue to sprinkle the treated area with water until
optimum moisture content is attained. Distribute the required quantity of
dry cement with approved equipment, at a uniform rate. Minimize
scattering of cement by wind. Do not apply cement when wind conditions,
in the opinion of the Engineer, cause blowing cement to become dangerous
to traffic or objectionable t adjacent property owners.
C. Slurry Placing
1. Sprinkle the prepared roadway with diluted add-mixture Liquid Soil
Stabilizer uniformly by making successive passes over a measured section
of the roadway until the desired quantity of diluted add-mixture Liquid Soil
Stabilizer is evenly distributed over the area to be treated. Mix the
required quantity of cement with water, adjusting the amount of water in
order to account for the moisture placed on the roadway with the add-
mixture Liquid Soil Stabilizer as it relates to optimum moisture, as
approved. Produce slurry free of objectionable materials and with a
consistency that can be easily applied. Agitate the slurry continuously.
Apply slurry within 2 hours of adding water and not longer than 30
minutes after placement of the add-mixture Liquid Soil Stabilizer, and
when the roadway is at a moisture content drier than optimum. Dispense
and spread slurry uniformly by making successive passes over a measured
section of the roadway at the rate directed until the required cement content
is attained.
D. Mixing
1. Thoroughly mix the material, add-mixture Liquid Soil Stabilizer and
cement using approved equipment. Mix until a homogeneous mixture is
obtained. Sprinkle the treated materials during the mixing operation, as
directed, to maintain optimum mixing moisture. Spread and shape the
completed mixture in a uniform layer.

STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS City Project No. 106294
Version August 21, 2015
2. The Engineer will obtain a sample of the material at roadway moisture and
remove all non-slaking aggregates retained on a 3/4-in. sieve. The
remainder of the mixture must meet the pulverization requirements of
Table 1 when tested in accordance with Tex-101-E, Part III. When shown
on the plans or approved by the engineer, the pulverization requirement
may be waived when the material contains a substantial amount of
aggregate.
E. Compaction
1. Compact the mixture in one lift using ordinary compaction or density
control, as shown on the plans. Complete compaction within 2 hours after
the application of the add-mixture Liquid Soil Stabilizer.
2. Sprinkle the treated material in accordance with Item 204, “Sprinkling”.
Adjust the moisture content of the mixture during compaction so that it is
within 2.0 percentage points of optimum as determined by Test Method
Tex-120-E, Part II. Determine the moisture content of the mixture at the
beginning and during compaction in accordance with Tex-103-E. Adjust
operations if required.
3. Begin rolling longitudinally at the sides and proceed towards the center,
overlapping on successive trips by at least one-half the width of the roller
unit. On super-elevated curves, begin rolling at the low side and progress
toward the high side. Offset alternate trips of the roller. Operate rollers at
a speed between 2 and 6 miles per hour, as directed.
F. Ordinary Compaction
1. Roll with approved compaction equipment, as directed. Correct
irregularities, depressions, and weak spots immediately by scarifying the
areas affected, adding or removing treated material as required, reshaping,
and re-compacting.
G. Finishing
1. Immediately after completing compaction, clip, skin, or tight-blade the
surface of the add-mixture Liquid Soil Stabilization/cement treated
material with a maintainer or subgrade trimmer to a depth of approximately
1/4 in. Remove loosened material and dispose of at an approved location.
Roll the clipped surface immediately with a pneumatic tire roller until a
smooth surface is attained. Add small increments of water as needed
during rolling. Shape and maintain the course and surface in conformity
with the typical sections, lines and grades shown on the plans or as
directed. In areas where surfacing is to be placed, trim grade deviations
greater than 1/4 in. in cross section and 1/4 in. in 16 ft. measured
longitudinally for the entire width of the cross-section. Remove excess
material, reshape, and roll with a pneumatic tire roller. If material is more
than 1/4 in. low, correct as directed. Do not surface patch.

B. Concrete Tests: Perform testing of fresh concrete sample obtained according to 1
ASTM C172 with the following requirements: 2
1. Testing Frequency: Obtain 1 fresh concrete sample for each day's pour of each 3
concrete mixture exceeding 5 cubic yards, but less than 150 cubic yards, plus 1 set 4
for each additional 150 cubic yard or fraction thereof. 5
2. Slump: ASTM C143; 1 test at point of placement for each concrete sample, but not 6
less than 1 test for each day's pour of each concrete mixture. Perform additional 7
tests when concrete consistency appears to change. 8
3. Air Content: ASTM C231, pressure method, for normal-weight concrete; 1 test for 9
each sample, but not less than 1 test for each day's pour of each concrete mixture. 10
4. Concrete Temperature: ASTM C1064; 1 test for each concrete sample. 11
5. Compression Test Specimens: ASTM C31. 12
a. Cast and laboratory cure 3 cylinders for each fresh concrete sample. 13
1) Do not transport field cast cylinders until they have cured for a 14
minimum of 24 hours. 15
6. Compressive-Strength Tests: ASTM C39; 16
a. Test 1 cylinder at 7 days. 17
b. Test 2 cylinders at 28 days. 18
7. Upload test results into Buzzsaw within 48 hours of testing. Reports of 19
compressive-strength tests shall contain Project identification name and number, 20
date of concrete placement, name of concrete tester and inspector, location of 21
concrete batch in Work, design compressive strength at 28 days, concrete mixture 22
proportions and materials, compressive breaking strength, and type of break for 23
both 7- and 28-day tests. 24
8. Additional Tests: Additional tests of concrete shall be made when test results 25
indicate that slump, air entrainment, compressive strengths, or other City 26
specification requirements have not been met. The Lab Services division may 27
conduct or request tests to determine adequacy of concrete by cored cylinders 28
complying with ASTM C42 or by other methods as directed by the Project 29
Manager. 30
a. When the strength level of the concrete for any portion of the structure, as 31
indicated by cylinder tests, falls below the specified requirements, provide 32
improved curing conditions and/or adjustments to the mix design as required to 33
obtain the required strength. If the average strength of the laboratory control 34
cylinders falls so low as to be deemed unacceptable, follow the core test 35
procedure set forth in ACI 301, Chapter 17. Locations of core tests shall be 36
approved by the Project Engineer. Core sampling and testing shall be at 37
Contractors expense. 38
b. If the results of the core tests indicate that the strength of the structure is 39
inadequate, any replacement, load testing, or strengthening as may be ordered by 40
the Project Engineer shall be provided by the Contractor without cost to the 41
City. 42
9. Additional testing and inspecting, at Contractor's expense, will be performed to 43
determine compliance of replaced or additional work with specified requirements. 44

opposite pattern.
c. Allow a minimum of 1 hour to pass to provide time for settlement between
bolts and nuts and gasket relaxation.
d. Complete the third pass by checking each bolt in a clockwise pattern. Each nut
should be tightened until it will no longer turn. This step compensates for
elastic interaction and brings all bolts into parity.
6. The threads of the bolts should protrude a minimum of ½-inch from the nuts.
