appropriations in the W&S Commercial Paper project (City Project No. UCMLPR) by the same

DISCUSSION:
This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize a construction contract with CLW Water
Group, LLC, authorize an amendment to an Engineering Agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc., adopt a
resolution expressing official intent to reimburse expenditures from future debt, and appropriate funding for
Bonds Ranch Lift Station, Force Main and Gravity Main project.
On June 27, 2023, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) 23-0544, the City Council authorized an
engineering agreement in the amount of $1,143,312.00 with Freese and Nichols, Inc., (City Secretary
Contract No. 59868) for the Bonds Ranch Lift Station (Lift Station A), Force Main, and Gravity Main
project. The agreement was subsequently revised by Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $1,009,580.00,
authorized September 16, 2025 (M&C 25-0891) that primarily provided design for a second lift station (Lift
Station B) that, in conjunction with Lift Station A, will provide sanitary sewer service to the area west of
Morris Dido Newark Road and south of Peden Road.
Amendment No. 2 CSC 59868 provides for construction management, resident project representative,
and construction support services including shop drawings, submittal reviews, change order review, and
record drawings.
Construction of the Bonds Ranch Lift Station project was advertised for bid on December 10, 2025, and
December 17, 2025, in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram. On January 15, 2026, the following bids were
received:

$15,008,371.17
Thalle Construction Co, Inc.
$15,885,046.00
Felix Construction Company
$18,882,770.00
In addition to the contract cost, $361,553.00 is required for project management, material testing and
inspection and $324,800.00 is provided for project contingency.
Small Business (SB) Goal — The City waived the Small Business Program requirement for this project due
to there being fewer than three certified vendors available, in accordance with the City's Small Business
Ordinance, Chapter 21 of the City Code.
Available cash within the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio along with the appropriation
authority authorized under Callable Commercial Paper Program (CP) will be used to provide interim
financing for this project until debt is issued. Once debt associated with this project is sold, bond proceeds
will be used to reimburse the Water and Sewer portfolio and the City's portfolio in accordance with the
attached Reimbursement Resolution. Under federal law, debt must be issued within approximately three
years in order for these expenses to be reimbursable. Adoption of the attached resolution does not
obligate the City to sell bonds but preserves the ability of the City to reimburse itself from tax-exempt bond
proceeds.
It is the practice of the Water Department to appropriate its Capital Improvement Program (CIP) plan
throughout the Fiscal Year, instead of within the annual budget ordinance, as projects commence,
additional funding needs are identified, and to comply with bond covenants.
Funding is budgeted in the Commercial Paper project within the W&S Commercial Paper Fund and in the
Water/Wastewater Wholesale Impact Fees and Water/Wastewater Retail Impact Fees projects for the
purpose of funding of the Bonds Ranch Lift Station, Force Main and Gravity Main project.

Uploading large documents may take time, depending on the size of the file(s) and your Internet
connection speed. The Bonfire portal can be accessed using Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or
Mozilla Firefox. JavaScript must be enabled. Browser cookies must be enabled.
Electronic submission is subject to electronic interface latency, which can result in transmission
delays. All bidders or proposers assume the risk of late transmission/ submission. The City shall
not be held liable if an interested bidder or proposer is unable to submit a complete bid/response
before the published deadline due to transmission delays or any other technical issues or
obstructions. The City strongly recommends allowing sufficient time to complete the submission
process (ideally a week before the deadline) to begin the uploading process and to finalize your
submission to give adequate time in the event an issue arises.
All submissions must be submitted electronically prior to the close date and time under the
respective Project via the Procurement Portal:
htips:Hfortworthtexas.bonfirehub.com/portal/?tab=openOpportunities
Failure to submit all completed required information listed in the respective Solicitation will be
grounds for rejection of a bid as non -responsive. No late bids/proposals shall be accepted. Bids
delivered in any other manner than using the Bonfire Platform (Procurement Portal) will not be
accepted or considered.
If, upon being opened, a submission is unreadable to the degree that material conformance to the
requirements of the procurement specifications cannot be ascertained, such submission will be
rejected without liability to the City, unless such bidder provides clear and convincing evidence
(a) of the content of the submission as originally submitted and (b) that the unreadable condition
of the Electronic Bid was caused solely by error or malfunction of the Bonfire Platform
(Procurement Portal). Failure to scan a clear or readable copy of a bid into the system does not
constitute and shall not be considered an error or malfunction of the Bonfire Platform
(Procurement Portal). Bidders are encouraged to fully review each page of every document within
their submission prior to submitting to ensure all documents are clear, legible, and complete.

Texas Government Code Chapter 2252 was adopted for the award of contracts to nonresident bidders. This
law provides that, in order to be awarded a contract as low bidder, nonresident bidders (out-of-state
contractors whose corporate offices or principal place of business are outside the State of Texas) bid projects
for construction, improvements, supplies or services in Texas at an amount lower than the lowest Texas
resident bidder by the same amount that a Texas resident bidder would be required to underbid a nonresident
bidder in order to obtain a comparable contract in the State which the nonresident's principal place of business
is located.
The appropriate blanks in Section A must be filled out by all nonresident bidders in order for your bid to meet
specifications. The failure of nonresident bidders to do so will automatically disqualify that bidder. Resident
bidders must check the box in Section B.
A. Nonresident bidders in the State of , our principal place of business,
are required to be percent lower than resident bidders by State Law. A copy of the
statute is attached.
Nonresident bidders in the State of our principal place of business,
are not required to underbid resident bidders.
B. The principal place of business of our company or our parent company or majority owner is
in the State of Texas. )(J

GENERAL CONDITIONS
Page 44 of 63
a. the pre -bid allowances include the cost to Contractor of materials and equipment required
by the allowances to be delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and

of City.
D. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued to reflect actual amounts due
Contractor on account of Work covered by allowances, and the Contract Price shall be
correspondingly adjusted.
11.03 UnitPrice Work
A. Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work,
initially the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to
the sum of the unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated
quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement.
B. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the
purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determinations of the
actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor will be made by
City subject to the provisions of Paragraph 9.05.
C. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Contractor to be adequate to
cover Contractor's overhead and profit for each separately identified item. Work described in the
Contract Documents, or reasonably inferred as required for a functionally complete installation,
but not identified in the listing of unit price items shall be considered incidental to unit price work
listed and the cost of incidental work included as part of the unit price.
D. City may make an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with Paragraph 12.01 i£
1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor differs materially and
significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Agreement; and

2. If the changes in quantities or alterations significantly change the character of work, the
Contract will be amended by a Change Order.
3. If no unit prices exist, this will be considered Extra Work and the Contract will be amended
by a Change Order in accordance with Article 12.
4. A significant change in the character of work occurs when:
a. the character of work for any Item as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that
in the Contract or
b. a Major Item of work varies by more than 25% from the original Contract quantity.
5. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is more than
125% of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may
request an adjustment to the unit price on the portion of the work that is above 125%.
6. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is less than 75%
of the original quantity stated in the Contract, then either party to the Contract may request
an adjustment to the unit price.

A. Plans quantities may or may not represent the exact quantity of work performed or material moved,
handled, or placed during the execution of the Contract. The estimated bid quantities are
designated as final payment quantities, unless revised by the governing Section or this Article.
B. If the quantity measured as outlined under "Price and Payment Procedures" varies by more than
25% (or as stipulated under "Price and Payment Procedures" for specific Items) from the total
estimated quantity for an individual Item originally shown in the Contract Documents, an
adjustment may be made to the quantity of authorized work done for payment purposes. The party
to the Contract requesting the adjustment will provide field measurements and calculations
showing the final quantity for which payment will be made. Payment for revised quantity will be
made at the unit price bid for that Item, except as provided for in Article 10.
C. When quantities are revised by a change in design approved by the City, by Change Order, or to
correct an error, or to correct an error on the plans, the plans quantity will be increased or decreased
by the amount involved in the change, and the 25% variance will apply to the new plans quantity.
D. If the total Contract quantity multiplied by the unit price bid for an individual Item is less than
$250 and the Item is not originally a plans quantity Item, then the Item may be paid as a plans
quantity Item if the City and Contractor agree in writing to fix the final quantity as a plans quantity.

and agreement to a lump sum or unit price is not reached under Paragraph 12.0l.B.2, on the
basis of the Cost of the Work (determined as provided in Paragraph 11.01) plus a Contractor's
fee for overhead and profit (determined as provided in Paragraph 12.01.C).
C. Contractor's Fee: The Contractor's additional fee for overhead and profit shall be determined as
follows:
1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or

Paragraphs 11.0l.A.1 and 11.0l.A.2 and that any higher tier Subcontractor and
Contractor will each be paid a fee of five percent (5%) of the amount paid to the next
lower tier Subcontractor, however in no case shall the cumulative total of fees paid be
in excess of 25%;

11.01.13;
d. the amount of credit to be allowed by Contractor to City for any change which results in
a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease in cost plus a deduction
in Contractor's fee by an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such net decrease.
12.02 Change of Contract Time
A. The Contract Time may only be changed by a Change Order.
B. No extension of the Contract Time will be allowed for Extra Work or for claimed delay unless the

delay adversely affects the critical path.
12.03 Delays
A. Where Contractor is reasonably delayed in the performance or completion of any part of the
Work within the Contract Time due to delay beyond the control of Contractor, the Contract Time
may be extended in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay if a Contract Claim is made
therefor. Delays beyond the control of Contractor shall include, but not be limited to, acts or
neglect by City, acts or neglect of utility owners or other contractors performing other work as
contemplated by Article 7, fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, or acts of God.
Such an adjustment shall be Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for the delays described in
this Paragraph.

damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys, and
other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) sustained by
Contractor on or in connection with any other project or anticipated project.
C. Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Time for delays
within the control of Contractor. Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor
or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor.

units completed.
14.02 Progress Payments
A. Applications for Payments:
1. Contractor is responsible for providing all information as required to become a vendor of the
City.
2. At least 20 days before the date established in the General Requirements for each progress
payment, Contractor shall submit to City for review an Application for Payment filled out and
signed by Contractor covering the Work completed as of the date of the Application and
accompanied by such supporting documentation as is required by the Contract Documents.
3. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work
but delivered and suitably stored at the Site or at another location agreed to in writing, the
Application for Payment shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice, or other
documentation warranting that City has received the materials and equipment free and clear of
all Liens and evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by appropriate insurance
or other arrangements to protect City's interest therein, all of which must be satisfactory to
City.
4. Beginning with the second Application for Payment, each Application shall include an affidavit

B. Review of Applications:
1. City will, after receipt of each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a
recommendation of payment or return the Application to Contractor indicating reasons for
refusing payment. In the latter case, Contractor may make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application.
2. City's processing of any payment requested in an Application for Payment will be based on
City's observations of the executed Work, and on City's review of the Application for Payment
and the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of City's knowledge:
a. the Work has progressed to the point indicated;
b. the quality of the Work is generally in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject
to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole prior to or upon Final Acceptance, the
results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, a final determination
of quantities and classifications for Work performed under Paragraph 9.05, and any other
qualifications stated in the recommendation).
3. Processing any such payment will not thereby be deemed to have represented that:
a. inspections made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work as it has been performed
have been exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in progress, or involved
detailed inspections of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to City
in the Contract Documents; or
b. there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle Contractor
to be paid additionally by City or entitle City to withhold payment to Contractor; or
c. Contractor has complied with Laws and Regulations applicable to Contractor's performance
of the Work.
4. City may refuse to process the whole or any part of any payment because of subsequently
discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, and revise or revoke
any such payment previously made, to such extent as may be necessary to protect City from
loss because:
a. the Work is defective or completed Work has been damaged by the Contractor or
subcontractors requiring correction or replacement;
b. discrepancies in quantities contained in previous applications for payment;
c. the Contract Price has been reduced by Change Orders;
d. City has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with
Paragraph 13.09; or

(10%).
2. For contracts greater than $400,000 at the time of execution, retainage shall be five percent
(5%).
D. Liquidated Damages. For each calendar day that any work shall remain uncompleted after the
time specified in the Contract Documents, the sum per day specified in the Agreement will be
assessed against the monies due the Contractor, not as a penalty, but as damages suffered by the
City.
E. Payment: Contractor will be paid pursuant to the requirements of this Article 14 and payment
will become due in accordance with the Contract Documents.
F. Reduction in Payment:
1. City may refuse to make payment of the amount requested because:
a. Liens have been filed in connection with the Work, except where Contractor has delivered
a specific bond satisfactory to City to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens;
b. there are other items entitling City to a set-off against the amount recommended; or
c. City has actual knowledge of the occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
Paragraphs 14.02.B.4.a through 14.02.B.4.e or Paragraph 15.02.A.

notice stating the reasons for such action and pay Contractor any amount remaining after
deduction of the amount so withheld. City shall pay Contractor the amount so withheld, or any
adjustment thereto agreed to by City and Contractor, when Contractor remedies the reasons
for such action.
14.03 Contractor's Warranty of Title
Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials, and equipment covered by any
Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to City no later than the

construction in the Contract Documents for all Work locations, the City may release a portion of
the amount retained provided that all other work is completed as determined by the City. Before
the release, all submittals and final quantities must be completed and accepted for all other work.

Documents or any act or neglect of City related to or connected with the Contract.
ARTICLE 15 — SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION
15.01 City May Suspend Work
A. At any time and without cause, City may suspend the Work or any portion thereof by written
notice to Contractor and which may fix the date on which Work will be resumed. Contractor shall
resume the Work on the date so fixed. During temporary suspension of the Work covered by these
Contract Documents, for any reason, the City will make no extra payment for stand-by time of
construction equipment and/or construction crews.
B. Should the Contractor not be able to complete a portion of the Project due to causes beyond the
control of and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor, and should it be determined by
mutual consent of the Contractor and City that a solution to allow construction to proceed is not
available within a reasonable period of time, Contractor may request an extension in Contract
Time, directly attributable to any such suspension.
C. If it should become necessary to suspend the Work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall
store all materials in such a manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily
nor become damaged in any way, and he shall take every precaution to prevent damage or
deterioration of the work performed; he shall provide suitable drainage about the work, and erect
temporary structures where necessary.
D. Contractor may be reimbursed for the cost of moving his equipment off the job and returning the
necessary equipment to the job when it is determined by the City that construction may be

equipment and no profit will be allowed. Reimbursement may not be allowed if the equipment is
moved to another construction project for the City.

15.02 City May Terminate for Cause
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events by way of example, but not of limitation,
may justify termination for cause:
1. Contractor's persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents
(including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials
or equipment, failure to adhere to the Project Schedule established under Paragraph 2.07 as
adjusted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 6.04, or failure to adhere to the City's
Business Diversity Enterprise Ordinance #20020-12-2011established under Paragraph
6.06.D);
2. Contractor's disregard of Laws or Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
3. Contractor's repeated disregard of the authority of City; or
4. Contractor's violation in any substantial way of any provisions of the Contract Documents;
or
5. Contractor's failure to promptly make good any defect in materials or workmanship, or
defects of any nature, the correction of which has been directed in writing by the City; or
6. Substantial indication that the Contractor has made an unauthorized assignment of the
Contract or any funds due therefrom for the benefit of any creditor or for any other purpose;
or
7. Substantial evidence that the Contractor has become insolvent or bankrupt, or otherwise
financially unable to carry on the Work satisfactorily; or
8. Contractor commences legal action in a court of competent jurisdiction against the City.
B. If one or more of the events identified in Paragraph 15.02A. occur, City will provide written notice
to Contractor and Surety to arrange a conference with Contractor and Surety to address
Contractor's failure to perform the Work. Conference shall be held not later than 15 days, after
receipt of notice.
1. If the City, the Contractor, and the Surety do not agree to allow the Contractor to proceed to
perform the construction Contract, the City may, to the extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, declare a Contractor default and formally terminate the Contractor's right to
complete the Contract. Contractor default shall not be declared earlier than 20 days after the
Contractor and Surety have received notice of conference to address Contractor's failure to
perform the Work.
2. If Contractor's services are terminated, Surety shall be obligated to take over and perform the
Work. If Surety does not commence performance thereof within 15 consecutive calendar days

Work and complete it as described below.
a. If City completes the Work, City may exclude Contractor and Surety from the site and
take possession of the Work, and all materials and equipment incorporated into the Work
stored at the Site or for which City has paid Contractor or Surety but which are stored
elsewhere, and finish the Work as City may deem expedient.
3. Whether City or Surety completes the Work, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any
further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds
all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by City arising out of or resulting from
completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses and
damages exceed such unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to City. Such claims,
costs, losses and damages incurred by City will be incorporated in a Change Order, provided
that when exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, City shall not be required to
obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.
4. Neither City, nor any of its respective consultants, agents, officers, directors or employees
shall be in any way liable or accountable to Contractor or Surety for the method by which the
completion of the said Work, or any portion thereof, may be accomplished or for the price paid
therefor.
5. City, notwithstanding the method used in completing the Contract, shall not forfeit the right
to recover damages from Contractor or Surety for Contractor's failure to timely complete the
entire Contract. Contractor shall not be entitled to any claim on account of the method used
by City in completing the Contract.
6. Maintenance of the Work shall continue to be Contractor's and Surety's responsibilities as
provided for in the bond requirements of the Contract Documents or any special guarantees
provided for under the Contract Documents or any other obligations otherwise prescribed by
law.
C. Notwithstanding Paragraphs 15.02.13, Contractor's services will not be terminated if Contractor
begins within seven days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate to correct its failure to perform
and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within no more than 30 days of receipt of said notice.
D. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any
rights or remedies of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any
retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by City will not release Contractor from liability.
E. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of
Paragraph 5.02, the termination procedures of that bond shall not supersede the provisions of this
Article.

all such claims shall be conclusively deemed waived.

1. completed and acceptable Work executed in accordance with the Contract Documents prior
to the effective date of termination, including fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on
such Work;

with uncompleted Work, plus fair and reasonable sums for overhead and profit on such expenses;
and
3. reasonable expenses directly attributable to termination.
G. In the event of the failure of the Contractor and City to agree upon the whole amount to be paid
to the Contractor by reason of the termination of the Work, the City shall determine, on the basis

schedule is utilized in status reporting to various levels of the City organization and the citizenry.
This Document complements the City's Standard Agreement to guide the construction contractor
(Contractor) in preparing and submitting acceptable schedules for use by the City in project delivery.
The expectation is the performance of the work follows the accepted schedule and adhere to the
contractual timeline.
The Contractor will designate a qualified representative (Project Scheduler) responsible for developing
and updating the schedule and preparing status reporting as required by the City.

A.Project Schedules
Each project is represented by City's master project schedule that encompasses the entire scope of
activities envisioned by the City to properly deliver the work. When the City contracts with a Contractor
to perform construction of the Work, the Contractor will develop and maintain a schedule for their scope

of work in alignment with the City's standard schedule requirements as defined herein. The data and
information of each such schedule will be leveraged and become integral in the master project schedule
as deemed appropriate by the City's Project Control Specialist and approved by the City's Project
Manager.
1. Master Project Schedule
The master project schedule is a holistic representation of the scheduled activities and
milestones for the total project and be Critical Path Method (CPM) based. The City's
Project Manager is accountable for oversight of the development and maintaining a master
project schedule for each project. When the City contracts for the design and/or construction
of the project, the master project schedule will incorporate elements of the Design and
Construction schedules as deemed appropriate by the City's Project Control Specialist. The
assigned City Project Control Specialist creates and maintains the master project schedule in
P6 (City's scheduling software).
2. Construction Schedule
a. The Contractor is responsible for developing and maintaining a schedule for the scope of the
Contractor's contractual requirements. The Contractor will issue an initial schedule for
review and acceptance by the City's Project Control Specialist and the City's Project
Manager as a baseline schedule for Contractor's scope of work. Contractor will issue current,
accurate updates of their schedule (Progress Schedule) to the City at the end of each month
throughout the life of their work.
B. Schedule Tiers
The City has a portfolio of projects that vary widely in size, complexity and content requiring different
scheduling to effectively deliver each project. The City uses a "tiered" approach to align the proper
schedule with the criteria for each project. The City's Project Manager determines the appropriate
schedule tier for each project, and includes that designation and the associated requirements in the
Contractor's scope of work. The following is a summary of the "tiers".
1. Tier 1: Small Size and Short Duration Project (design not required)
a. The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. No schedule
submittal is required from Contractor. City's Project Control Specialist acquires any
necessary schedule status data or information through discussions with the respective party
on an as -needed basis.
2. Tier 2: Small Size and Short to Medium Duration Project
a. The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The Contractor
identifies "start" and "finish" milestone dates on key elements of their work as agreed with
the City's Project Manager at the kickoff of their work effort. The Contractor issues to the
City, updates to the "start" and "finish" dates for such milestones at the end of each month
throughout the life of their work on the project.
3. Tier 3: Medium and Large Size and/or Complex Projects Regardless of Duration
a. The City develops and maintains a Master Project Schedule for the project. The Contractor
develops a Baseline Schedule and maintains the schedule of their respective scope of work on
the project at a level of detail (generally Level 3) and in alignment with the WBS structure in
Section 1.4.H as agreed by the Project Manager. The Contractor issues to the City, updates
of their respective schedule (Progress Schedule) at the end of each month throughout the life
of their work on the project.

C. Schedule Types
Project delivery for the City utilizes two types of schedules as noted below. The City develops and
maintains a Master Project Schedule as a "baseline" schedule and issue monthly updates to the City
Project Manager (end of each month) as a "progress" schedule. The Contractor prepares and submits
each schedule type to fulfill their contractual requirements.
1. Baseline Schedule
a. The Contractor develops and submits to the City, an initial schedule for their scope of work in
alignment with this specification. Once reviewed and accepted by the City, it becomes the
"Baseline" schedule and is the basis against which all progress is measured. The baseline
schedule will be updated when there is a change or addition to the scope of work impacting
the duration of the work, and only after receipt of a duly authorized change order issued by
the City. In the event progress is significantly behind schedule, the City's Project Manager
may authorize an update to the baseline schedule to facilitate a more practical evaluation of
progress. An example of a Baseline Schedule is provided in Specification 0132 16.1
Construction Project Schedule Baseline Example.
2. Progress Schedule
a. The Contractor updates their schedule at the end of each month to represent the progress
achieved in the work which includes any impact from authorized changes in the work. The
updated schedule must accurately reflect the current status of the work at that point in time
and is referred to as the "Progress Schedule". The City's Project Manager and Project
Control Specialist reviews and accepts each progress schedule. In the event a progress
schedule is deemed not acceptable, the unacceptable issues are identified by the City within 5
working days and the Contractor must provide an acceptable progress schedule within 5
working days after receipt of non -acceptance notification. An example of a Progress
Schedule is provided in Specification 01 32 16.2 Construction Project Schedule Progress
Example.
D.City Standard Schedule requirements
The following is an overview of the methodology for developing and maintaining a schedule for
delivery of a project.
1. Schedule Framework - The schedule will be based on the defined scope of work and follow the
(Critical Path Methodology) CPM method. The Contractor's schedule will align with the
requirements of this specification and will be cost loaded to reflect their plan for execution.
Compliance with cost loading can be provided with traditional cost loading of line items OR a
projected cost per month for the project when the initial schedule is submitted, updated on a
quarterly basis is significant change is anticipated. Overall schedule duration will align with the
contractual requirements for the respective scope of work and be reflected in City's Master
Project Schedule. The Project Number and Name of the Project is required on each schedule
and must match the City's project data.
E. Schedule File Name
All schedules submitted to the City for a project will have a file name that begins with the City's
project number followed by the name of the project followed by baseline (if a baseline schedule) or the
year and month (if a progress schedule), as shown below.
1. Baseline Schedule File Name
Format: City Project Number —Project Name —Baseline

Example: 101376 North Montgomery Street HMAC PN_2018_01
F. The Contractor will utilize the relevant sections from the City's templates provided in the City's
document management system as the basis for creating their respective project schedule. Specifically,
the Contractor's schedule will align with the layout of the Construction section. The templates are
identified by type of project as noted below.

3. Neighborhood Streets
4. Sidewalks (later)
5. Quiet Zones (later)
6. Street Lights (later) Schedule Templates
7. Intersection Improvements (later)
8. Parks
9. Storm water
10. Street Maintenance
11. Traffic
12. Water
G. The City's standard calendar for schedule development purposes is based on a 5-day workweek and
accounts for the City's nine standard holidays (New Years, Martin Luther King, Memorial, Juneteenth,
Independence, Labor, Thanksgiving, day after Thanksgiving, and Christmas). The Contractor will
establish a schedule calendar as part of the schedule development process and provide to the Project
Control Specialist as part of the basis for their schedule. Variations between the City's calendar and
the Contractor's calendar must be resolved prior to the City's acceptance of their Baseline project
schedule.
H.WBS & Milestone Standards for Schedule Development
The scope of work to be accomplished by the Contractor is represented in the schedule in the form of a
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). The WBS is the basis for the development of the schedule activities
and shall be imbedded and depicted in the schedule.
The following is a summary of the standards to be followed in preparing and maintaining a schedule for
project delivery.
1. Contractor is required to utilize the City's WBS structure and respective project type template
for "Construction" as shown in Section 1.4.H below. Additional activities may be added to
Levels 1 - 4 to accommodate the needs of the organization executing the work. Specifically, the
Contractor will add activities under WBS XXXXXX.80.83 "Construction Execution" that
delineates the activities associated with the various components of the work.

STANDARD CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS City Project Number: 104490-1
Revised October 6, 2023

CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS SCHEDULE
Page 5 of 9
Contractor is required to adhere to the City's Standard Milestones as shown in Section 1.4.I
below. Contractor will include additional milestones representing intermediate deliverables as
required to accurately reflect their scope of work.
I. Schedule Activities
1. Activities are the discrete elements of work that make up the schedule. They will be organized
under the umbrella of the WBS. Activity descriptions should adequately describe the activity,
and in some cases the extent of the activity. All activities are logically tied with a predecessor
and a successor. The only exception to this rule is for "project start" and "project finish"
milestones.
2. The activity duration is based on the physical amount of work to be performed for the stated
activity, with a maximum duration of 20 working days OR a continuous activity in one
location. If the work for any one activity exceeds 20 days, break that activity down
incrementally to achieve this duration constraint. Any exception to this requires review and
acceptance by the City's Project Control Specialist.
J. Change Orders
When a Change Order is issued by the City, the impact is incorporated into the
previously accepted baseline schedule as an update, to clearly show impact to the
project timeline. The Contractor submits this updated baseline schedule to the City for
review and acceptance as described in Section 1.5 below. Updated baseline schedules
adhere to the following:
K.
1. Time extensions associated with approved contract modifications are limited to the actual
amount of time the project activities are anticipated to be delayed, unless otherwise approved by
the Program Manager.
2. The re-baselined schedule is submitted by the Contractor within ten workdays after the date of
receipt of the approved Change Order.
3. The changes in logic or durations approved by the City are used to analyze the impact of the
change and is included in the Change Order. The coding for a new activity(s) added to the
schedule for the Change Order includes the Change Order number in the Activity ID. Use as
many activities as needed to accurately show the work of the Change Order. Revisions to the
baseline schedule are not effective until accepted by the City.

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

batched or to be added later, plus the free water in the aggregate, and minus the water
content at SSD conditions.
7. No allowance shall be made for the evaporation of water after hatching. If additional water
is required to obtain the desired slump, a compensating amount of cement shall also be
added. In no case shall the maximum water cement ratio exceed the specified maximum or
that of the approved mix design.
8. Air Entrainment: Provide the percent air entrainment in each concrete mix design as
recommended by ACI 350:

1. All concrete is required to have an average compressive strength greater than the specified
strength. The required average compressive strength shall be established according to the
requirements of ACI 301.
2. Standard Deviation: Calculate a standard deviation and establish the required average
compressive strength (fcr') in accordance with ACI 301. If field test records are not
available, select the required average strength from ACI 301.
E. Documentation of Required Average Compressive Strength:
1. Documentation indicating the proposed concrete proportions will produce an average
compressive strength equal to or greater than fcr'. Documentation shall consist of field
strength records or trial mixture.
2. Field Strength Test Records: Document field strength test records according to ACI 301,
which is partially restated here:
a. If field test data are available and represent a single group of at least 10 consecutive
strength tests for one mixture, using the same materials, under the same conditions, and
encompassing a period of not less than 45 days, verify that the average of the field test
results equals or exceeds fcr'.
b. If the field test data represent two groups of strength tests for two mixtures, plot the
average strength of each group versus the water-cementitious materials ratio of the
corresponding mixture proportions and interpolate between them to establish the
required mixture proportions for fcr'.
3. Trial Mixtures:
a. Establish trial mixture proportions according to ACI 301, which is partially restated
here:
1) Make at least three trial mixtures complying with performance and design
requirements. Each trial mixture shall have a different cementitious material content.

Submit results in graphical form with each 28-day test result for that class of concrete.
2) If any of the following criteria are met, take immediate steps to increase average
compressive strength of the concrete.
a) A 28-day compressive strength test result is deemed not satisfactory.
b) The average compressive strength falls below the required average compressive
strength.
c. When revisions to the mix design are required, notify the Engineer in writing of the
corrective actions taken.
2.10 OFF -SITE BATCH PLANT
A. Batch plants shall be an established concrete batching facility meeting the requirements of the
Concrete Plant Standards of the Concrete Plant Manufacturers Bureau.
2.11 CONCRETE MIXING
A. Mixers may be stationary, truck, or paving mixers of approved design. They shall be capable
of combining the materials into a uniform mixture and of discharging without mixture
segregation. Stationary and paving mixers shall be provided with an acceptable device to lock
the discharge mechanism until the required mixing time has elapsed. The mixers or mixing
plant shall include a device for automatically counting the total number of batches of concrete
mixed. The mixers shall be operated at the drum or mixing blade speed designated by the
manufacturer on the name plate.
B. The mixing time for stationary mixers shall be based upon the mixer's ability to produce
uniform concrete throughout the batch and from batch to batch. For guidance purposes, the
manufacturer's recommendations, or 1 minute for 1 cubic yard plus 1/4 minute for each
additional cubic yard may be used. Final mixing time shall be based on mixer performance.
Mixers shall not be charged in excess of the capacity specified by the manufacturer.
C. When a stationary mixer is used for partial mixing of the concrete (shrink mixed), the stationary
mixing time may be reduced to the minimum necessary to intermingle the ingredients (about 30
seconds).

D. When a truck mixer is used, either for complete mixing (transit -mixed) or to finish the partial
mixing in a stationary mixer and in the absence of uniformity test data, each batch of concrete
shall be mixed not less than 70 nor more than 100 revolutions of the drum, at the rate of
rotation designated by the manufacturer of the equipment as mixing speed. If the batch is at
least 1/2 cubic yard less than the rated capacity, in the absence of uniformity test data, the
number of revolutions at mixing speed may be reduced to no less than 50. Additional mixing
shall be performed at the speed designated by the manufacturer of the equipment as agitating
speed. When necessary for proper control of the concrete, mixing of transit -mixed concrete
shall not be permitted until the truck mixer is at the Site of the concrete placement. Truck
mixers shall be equipped with accurate revolution counters.
E. Paving mixers may be either single compartment drum or multiple compartment drum type. A
sled or box of suitable size shall be attached to the mixer under the bucket to catch any concrete
spillage that may occur when the mixer is discharging concrete into the bucket. Multiple
compartment drum paving mixers shall be properly synchronized. The mixing time shall be
determined by time required to transfer the concrete between compartments of the drum.
F. Vehicles used in transporting materials from the batching plant to the paving mixers shall have
bodies or compartments of adequate capacity to carry the materials and to deliver each batch,
separated and intact, to the mixer. Cement shall be transported from the batching plant to the
mixers in separate compartments which are equipped with windproof and rain proof covers.

Page 17 of 34
2. Expansion Joints: Construct expansion joints and devices to provide expansion and
contraction. Construct joints which are to be left open or filled with poured joint material
with forms which are adaptable for loosening or early removal. In order to avoid jamming
by the expansion action of the concrete and the consequent likelihood of injuring adjacent
concrete, remove or loosen these forms as soon as possible after the concrete has initially
set. Make provisions for loosening the forms to permit free concrete expansion without
requiring full removal.
3. Armored Joints: Carefully construct armored joints to avoid defective anchorage of the
steel and porous or honeycombed concrete adjacent to same. Anchor pre -molded materials
to the concrete on one side of the joint with approved adhesive. Anchor so that the material
does not fall out of the joint.
B. Construction Joints:
Construction joints are formed by placing plastic concrete in direct contact with concrete
which has attained its initial set. When concrete is specified as monolithic, the term shall be
interpreted as the manner and sequence of concrete placement so that construction joints do
not occur.
2. Additional horizontal and vertical construction joints, when submitted and approved by the
Engineer, may have an impact on reinforcing details. Revise reinforcing details to reflect
additional joints.
3. Unless otherwise provided, construction joints shall be square and normal to the forms.
Provide bulkheads in the forms for all joints except horizontal joints.
4. Clean horizontal construction joints for receiving the succeeding lift using air water cutting.
The surface shall be exposed sound, clean aggregate with a 1/4 inch amplitude. After
cutting, wash the surface until there is no trace of cloudiness in the wash water.
5. In areas where air water cutting cannot be satisfactorily accomplished, or in areas where it
is undesirable to disturb the surface of the concrete before it has hardened, prepare the
surface for receiving the next lift by wet sand blasting to immediately remove all laitance
and unsound concrete prior to placing of the next lift. Thoroughly wash the surface of the
concrete after sand blasting to remove all loose material.
6. Provide construction joints with concrete keyways, reinforcing steel dowels, and waterstops
where indicated on the Drawings. The method of forming keys in keyed joints shall permit
the easy removal of forms without chipping, breaking, or damaging the concrete.
7. Construction joint layout unless otherwise indicated on the Drawings:
a. Maximum horizontal spacing of construction joints shall be 45 feet.
b. Maximum vertical spacing of construction joints shall be 15 feet.
C. Control Joints in Slabs -on -Grade: Form weakened -plane contraction joints, sectioning concrete
into areas as indicated. Construct control joints for a depth equal to at least one-fourth of
concrete thickness, spaced as indicated on the Drawings, and as follows:
1. Tooled Joints: Form control joints after initial floating by tooling/grooving and finishing
each edge of joint to a radius of 1/8 inch. Repeat grooving of contraction joints after
applying surface finishes. Eliminate groover tool marks on concrete surfaces.

A. PVC/TPER/PE Waterstops: Install in construction joints as indicated to form a continuous
diaphragm. Install in longest lengths practicable. Support and protect exposed waterstops
during progress of Work.
1. At formed surfaces, a split form shall be used. The split form shall have a tight fit which
prevents misalignment and concrete leakage.
2. The embedded flange of the waterstop must be secured prior to concrete placement. The
flange shall be secured at 12 inches on -center by factory installed hog rings or grommets at
the outermost rib. Never place nails or screws through the body of the waterstop.
All fittings and changes in direction shall be factory fabricated. Only straight butt splices
shall be made in the field. Field splices shall be according to the manufacturer's written
instructions and as follows:
a. Cut adjoining ends square to form matching edges.
b. Uniformly melt the ends at 380 deg F using a thermostatically controlled, Teflon coated
splicing iron.
c. When a 1/8-inch diameter melt bead develops on each waterstop end, remove the
splicing iron and firmly press the two ends together in proper alignment. Hold until the
material has fused and cooled. Allow the splice to cool naturally; do not quench.
B. Self -Expanding Strip Waterstops:
1. Install in construction joints and at other locations indicated, according to manufacturer's
written instructions, bonding or mechanically fastening and firmly pressing into place.
a. Waterstop shall be bonded to the substrate using a continuous bead of swelling sealant or
adhesive as recommended by the manufacturer.
1) ADEKA Ultra Seal P-201.
2) Sika Leakmaster.
2. Install in longest lengths practicable.
3. Protect from moisture, oil, dirt, and sunlight prior to the placement of concrete. Coordinate
with manufacturer for additional requirements.

A. Cold Weather:
1. If air temperature has fallen to, or is expected to fall below 40 deg F during the protection
period (a minimum of 48 hours but not less than that required by ACI 306.1), then cold
weather concreting shall be performed in accordance with ACI 306.1.
2. In cases where the temperature drops below 40 deg F after the concreting operations have
been started, sufficient canvas and framework or other type of housing shall be furnished to
enclose and protect the structure, in accordance with the requirements of ACI 306.1.
Sufficient heating apparatus to provide heat shall be supplied, and heating source and
protection from combustion gas shall be in accordance with ACI 306.1. The concrete shall
be protected when placed under all weather conditions. Should concrete placed under such
conditions prove unsatisfactory, remove and replace the concrete at no cost to the Owner.

3. When the air temperature is above 30 deg F:
a. The minimum concrete temperature at the time of mixing shall be 60 deg F unless other
requirements of ACI 306.1 are met, which may allow for a lower mix temperature.
b. The minimum concrete temperature at the time of placement and during the protection
period shall be 55 deg F unless other requirements of ACI 306.1 are met, which may
allow for a lower temperature.
4. The means used to heat a concrete mix shall be in accordance with ACI 306.1.
5. Salts, chemicals, or other foreign materials shall not be mixed with the concrete to
preventing freezing. Calcium chloride is not permitted.
B. Hot Weather:
Hot weather is defined as any combination of high air temperature, low relative humidity,
and wind velocity that impairs the quality of the concrete. Hot weather concreting shall be
in accordance with ACI 305.1. Concrete shall be placed in the forms without the addition
of any more water than that required by the design (slump). No excess water shall be added
on the concrete surface for finishing. Control of initial set of the concrete and extending the
time for finishing operations may be accomplished with the use of approved water reducing
and set retarding admixture, as specified.
2. Maximum time intervals between the addition of mixing water and/or cement to the batch,
and the placing of concrete in the forms shall not exceed the following (excluding HRWR
admixture use):
Concrete Temperature
Maximum Time from
Water Batch to Placement
Non -Agitated Concrete
Up to 80 deg F
30 Minutes
Over 80 deg F
15 Minutes
Agitated Concrete
Up to 75 deg F
90 Minutes
75 to 89 deg F
60 Minutes
a. The use of an approved set -retarding admixture will permit the extension of the above
time maximums by 30 minutes, for agitated concrete only.
b. The use of an approved high range water reducing (HRWR) or hydration -controlling
admixture will allow placement time extensions as determined by the manufacturer.
3. The maximum temperature of fresh concrete at time of discharge shall not exceed 95 deg F.
The temperatures of the mixing water shall be reduced by the use of chilled water or ice.
4. The maximum temperature of fresh concrete with high range water reducing admixture
shall not exceed 100 deg F at time of discharge.

b. Suitable moisture loss control combined with a temperature -controlled environment.
c. Other methods as approved by the Engineer.
6. Under extreme heat, wind, or humidity conditions, concreting operations may be suspended
if the quality of the concrete being placed is not acceptable.
C. Handling and Transporting:
1. Delivery tickets shall be required for each batch and shall be in accordance with ASTM
C94. Each delivery ticket must show plainly the amount of water, in gallons that can be
added to the mixer truck at the Site without exceeding the maximum water cement ratio
approved for that mix design. Amount of water added must be in proportion to contents of
truck.
2. Arrange and use chutes, troughs, or pipes as aids in placing concrete so that the ingredients
of the concrete are not segregated. They shall be steel or steel lined. When steep slopes are
necessary, equip the chutes with baffles or make in short lengths that reverse the direction
of movement. Extend open troughs and chutes, if necessary, inside the forms or through
holes left in the forms. Terminate the ends of these chutes in vertical downspouts.
3. Keep chutes, troughs, and pipes clean and free from coatings of hardened concrete by
thoroughly flushing with water before and after placement. Discharge water used for
flushing away from the concrete in place.
4. Use pumping equipment that has sufficient capacity so that:
a. Discharge of pump concrete does not result in segregation.
b. Modification of accepted concrete mixture is not required.
5. Carting or wheeling concrete batches on completed concrete floor slab shall not be
permitted until the slab has aged at least 4 curing days. Unless pneumatic tired carts are
used, wheel the carts on timber planking so that the loads and impact are distributed over
the slab. Curing operations shall not be interrupted for the purpose of wheeling concrete
over finished slabs.
D. Depositing:
1. The method and manner of placing shall prevent segregation or separation of the aggregate
or the displacement of the reinforcement. Use drop chutes or tremies as necessary.
2. Free Fall: Concrete shall not be allowed to free fall more than 10 feet when HRWR
admixture is used or 5 feet without the use of HRWR. Free falling concrete shall avoid
striking reinforcing during placement. Placement of concrete for heights exceeding the free
fall limit shall be placed using a tremie.
a. Concrete shall not be allowed to free fall through water. Place as indicated below.
3. Prevent the splattering of forms and reinforcing bars if the splattered concrete will dry or
harden before incorporation into the mass.
4. Fill each part of the forms by directly depositing concrete as near its final position as
possible. Work the concrete under and around the reinforcement bars. Depositing large
quantities at one point in the forms, then running or working it along the forms shall not be
permitted.
a. Place required sections in one continuous operation to avoid additional cold joints. Each
layer shall be fluid and concrete shall not have taken initial set when a new layer is

placed upon it. Not more than 1 hour shall elapse between the placing of successive
concrete layers in any portion of the structures included in continuous placement.
Place in continuous horizontal layers with a depth of from 1 to 3 feet. If excessive bleeding
causes water to form on the surface of the concrete in tall forms, revise mix design to
reduce the bleeding.
6. In tall walls, place the concrete to a point about 1 foot below the top of the wall and allow to
settle for 1 hour. Resume and complete concreting before set occurs.
7. For slopes greater than 2 percent, start concrete placement at low end and proceed upslope.
8. After the concrete has taken initial set, the forms shall not be jarred. No force or load shall
be placed upon projecting reinforcement.
E. Consolidating:
Compact each layer of concrete and flush the mortar to the surface of the forms by
continuous -working mechanical vibrators. Apply the vibrator to the concrete immediately
after deposit. Move vibrator throughout the layer of the newly placed concrete, several
inches into the plastic layer below. Thoroughly work the concrete around the
reinforcement, embedded fixtures and into the corners and angles of the forms until it is
well -compacted.
2. Mechanical vibrators shall not be operated so that they penetrate or disturb previously
placed layers which are partially set or hardened. They shall not be used to aid the flow of
concrete laterally. The vibration shall be of sufficient duration to completely compact and
embed reinforcement and fixtures, but not to an extent causing segregation.
3. Keep vibrators constantly moving in the concrete and apply vertically at points uniformly
spaced, not farther apart than the radius over which the vibrator is visibly effective. The
vibrator shall not be held in one location longer than required to produce a liquified
appearance on the surface.
4. When submerged in concrete, internal vibrators shall maintain a frequency of not less than
6000 impulses per minute for heads with diameters greater than 5 inches and 10,000
impulses for smaller vibrator heads. The vibration intensity (amplitude) shall be sufficient
to produce satisfactory consolidation.
a. Vibrator head shall be sufficiently small to allow placement between reinforcing steel.
b. Provide at least one standby vibrator.
c. Check vibrators intended for regular service or standby service prior to concreting
operations.
F. Placement in Water:
1. Deposit concrete in water only when dry conditions cannot be obtained. The forms,
cofferdams, or caissons shall be sufficiently tight to prevent any water flowing through the
space where concrete is to be deposited. Pumping of water shall not be permitted while the
concrete is being placed, nor until it has set for at least 36 hours.
2. Carefully place the concrete using a tremie, closed bottom dumping bucket, or another
approved method which does not permit the concrete to fall through the water without
protection. The concrete shall not be disturbed after being deposited. Regulate depositing
to maintain horizontal surfaces.

When a tremie is used, it shall consist of a tube constructed in sections having water -tight
connections. The means of supporting the tremie shall permit the movement of the
discharge end over the entire top surface of the work, and shall allow the tremie to be
rapidly lowered to retard the flow. The number of times it is necessary to shift the location
of the tremie shall be held to a minimum for any continuous placement of concrete. During
the placing of concrete, keep the tremie tube full to the bottom of the hopper. When a batch
is dumped into the hopper, slightly raise the tremie, but not out of the concrete at the
bottom, until the batch discharges to the level of the bottom of the hopper. Stop the flow by
lowering the tremie. Continue placing operations until the work is completed.
4. When concrete is placed by means of the bottom dump bucket, the bucket shall have a
capacity of not less than 1/2 cubic yard. Lower the bucket gradually and carefully until it
rests upon the concrete already placed. Raise it very slowly during the discharge travel to
maintain still water at the point of discharge and to avoid agitating the mixture.
5. Use a sump or other approved method to channel displaced fluid and concrete away from
the shaft excavation. Recover slurry and dispose of it as approved. Do not discharge
displaced fluids into or in close proximity to streams or other bodies of water.
G. Placement in Slabs:
Allow concrete in columns, walls and deep beams or girders to stand for at least 1 hour to
permit full settlement from consolidation, before concrete is placed for slabs they are to
support. Haunches are considered as part of the slab and shall be placed integrally with
them.
2. When monolithic slabs are placed in strips, the widths of the strips, unless otherwise
specified or indicated, shall insure that concrete in any one strip is not allowed to lie in
place for more than 1 hour before the adjacent strips are placed.
3. Immediately before placing concrete, thoroughly dampen the subgrade to receive concrete
to prevent moisture absorption from the concrete.
4. As soon as concrete placing is complete for a slab section of sufficient width to permit
finishing operations, level the concrete, strike off, tamp and screed. The screed shall be of a
design adaptable to the use intended, shall have provision for vertical adjustment and shall
be sufficiently rigid to hold true to shape during use.
5. The initial strike off shall leave the concrete surface at an elevation slightly above grade so
that, when consolidation and finishing operations are completed, the surface of the slab is at
grade elevation.
6. Continue tamping and screeding operations until the concrete is properly consolidated and
free of surface voids. Bring the surface to a smooth, true alignment using longitudinal
screeding, floating, belting, and/or other methods.
7. When used, templates shall be of a design which permits early removal so satisfactory
finishing at and adjacent to the template is achieved.
8. While the concrete is still plastic, straighten the surface as required to achieve specified
flatness requirements. Remove high spots and fill depressions with fresh concrete and re-
float. Continue to check during the final finishing operation, until the surface is true to
grade and free of depressions, high spots, voids, or rough spots.

9. Where floor drains are shown in slabs and sloping the slab is not indicated, slope slab to
drain on a grade of l/16 inch per foot. The thickness of slab at floor drain shall be the
thickness of slab as indicated on the Drawings.
H. Placement in Foundations: Place concrete in deep foundations so that segregation of the
aggregates or displacement of the reinforcement is avoided. Provide suitable chutes or vertical
pipes. When footings can be placed in dry foundation pits without the use of cofferdams or
caissons, forms may be omitted and the entire excavation filled with concrete to the elevation
of the top of footing. The placing of concrete bases above mud slab is permitted after the forms
are free from water and the seal course cleaned. Execute necessary pumping or bailing during
concreting from a suitable sump located outside the forms.
1. Equipment Bases and Foundations: Provide machine and equipment bases and foundations as
shown on the Drawings. Set anchor bolts for machines and equipment at correct elevations,
complying with diagrams or templates of manufacturer furnishing machines and equipment.

Broom Finish
Exterior concrete platforms, steps, and ramps.
1. Rough Finish: Provide a rough surface by screeding only without further finish.
2. Scratch Finish: While still plastic, texture concrete surface that has been screeded and bull -
floated or darbied. Use stiff brushes, brooms, or rakes.
3. Float Finish: Finish surfaces using a float to a true, even plane with no coarse aggregate
visible. In the initial floating, while the concrete is plastic, use sufficient pressure on the
float to bring excess moisture to the surface for removal. Apply a final "light float" fmish
to the surface as the concrete hardens. The surface shall have a uniform granular texture
and shall meet the straightness requirements.
4. Trowel Finish:
a. After applying float finish, apply first trowel finish and consolidate concrete by hand or
power -driven trowel. Continue troweling passes and re -straighten until surface is free of
trowel marks and uniform in texture and appearance. Grind smooth any surface defects
that would telegraph through applied coatings or floor coverings.
b. Finish surfaces to the following tolerances, measured within 24 hours according to
ASTM E1155/E1155M for a randomly trafficked floor surface:
c. Finish and measure surface so gap at any point between concrete surface and an
unleveled freestanding 10-foot long straightedge, resting on two high spots and placed
anywhere on the surface, does not exceed the following:

5. Broom Finish: Immediately after float finishing, slightly roughen trafficked surface by
brooming with fiber -bristle broom perpendicular to main traffic route. Coordinate required
final finish with the Engineer before application.
C. Give sidewalks a brush finish, unless noted otherwise. Score sidewalks at a spacing equal to
the width of the walk and edge on each side using a tool with a radius of approximately 1/4
inch.
D. Finishing in Hot, Dry Weather: During periods of high temperature and/or low humidity, take
extreme care in finishing the slabs to eliminate initial shrinkage cracks. Following the initial
set of concrete, but while the concrete is still "green" continue to finish as required to remove
shrinkage cracks which may occur. In hot, dry weather, keep a cement fmisher on the job
following normal finishing operations for a sufficient length of time to insure the removal of
initial shrinkage cracks.

3.12 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
A. Testing:
1. General:
a. Tests shall be required throughout the Work to monitor the quality of concrete. Samples
shall be taken in accordance with ASTM C172.
b. Engineer may waive these requirements on concrete placements of 10 cubic yards or
less. However, evidence shall be furnished showing a design mix which meets the
Specifications.
c. Unless noted otherwise, testing of the materials, ready mix, transit mix, or central plant
concrete will be by an independent testing agency. The Owner will select and pay for
this service. A summary of all tests performed will be available. No concrete shall be
placed without a representative present at either the plant or at the Site.
d. Unless the Owner's laboratory is on the Site, provide housing for the curing and storage
of test specimens and equipment.
2. Slump Test: Slump tests, in accordance with ASTM C143, shall be used to indicate the
workability and consistency of the concrete mix from batch to batch. Generally, a slump
test shall be made at the start of operations each day, at regular intervals throughout a
working day, and at any time when the appearance of the concrete suggests a change in
uniformity.
Air Content Test: Tests for the concrete's air content shall be made in accordance with
ASTM C231 or ASTM C173, at the point of delivery of concrete, prior to placing in forms.
The test shall be made frequently to monitor a proper air content uniform from batch to
batch.
4. Temperature Test: Test for the concrete's temperature in accordance with ASTM C1064
and as follows: the temperature of the concrete to be placed shall be taken with a
thermometer immediately before placement, with the point of measurement being in the
chute or bucket. Temperature test shall be performed for each truck. Record temperatures
on batch ticket.
5. Compression Test:
a. Compression test specimens shall be 6-by-12-inch concrete cylinders made and cured in
accordance with ASTM C31. If the maximum aggregate size is no larger than 1 inch, 4-
by-8-inch concrete cylinders are acceptable. No fewer than two 6-by-12-inch or three 4-
by-8-inch specimens shall be made for each test Sample. Samples shall be taken at a
minimum of every 50 cubic yards of concrete for each class placed. At least one set of
test specimens per day shall be made for each class of concrete used that day. Initial
cure of specimens shall be in a temperature and moisture controlled environment as
specified in ASTM C31. Initial cure shall be in an enclosure such that the temperature is
uniform and can be monitored. The temperature range of initial curing shall be recorded
using a maximum -minimum thermometer. See "Hot Weather" section of this
specification for additional requirements. Final cure of specimens shall be under
laboratory conditions specified in ASTM C31. Additional concrete cylinders may be

required for curing on the job under actual job curing conditions. These Samples could
be required when:
1) There is a possibility of the air temperature surrounding the concrete falling below
40 deg F, or rising above 90 deg F.
2) The curing procedure may need to be improved and/or lengthened.
3) It is necessary to determine when the structure may be put into service.
b. Compression strength tests shall be made on the laboratory -cured and job -cured concrete
cylinders at 7 and 28 days, in accordance with ASTM C39. The value of each test result
shall be the average compressive strength of all of the cylinders in the test Sample. All
cylinders within a test Sample shall be taken at the same time from the same batch of
concrete. For the 28-day cylinders, the strength level shall be satisfactory if the averages
of all sets of three consecutive strength test results exceed the required design
compressive strength, and no individual strength test result falls below the required
compressive strength by more than 500 psi. The method of initial curing and maximum
and minimum initial curing temperatures shall be included on concrete compression test
reports.
6. High Early Strength Concrete Test: When Type "III" High Early Strength Portland cement
is used instead of Type "I" Portland cement, the minimum allowable 28-day strength for
Type "I" Portland cement concrete shall be at 7 days. The ages at time of test for Type
"III" shall be 3 days and 7 days, instead of 7 days and 28 days, respectively, for Type "I."
7. Chloride testing.
8. Shrinkage testing.
9. Failure to Meet Requirements:
a. Should the 28-day strengths shown by the test specimens fall below the required values,
additional curing shall be performed on those portions of the structures represented by
the test specimens at the Contractor's expense. Test cores shall be obtained and tested in
accordance with ASTM C42. If additional curing does not give the strength required,
the Owner reserves the right to require strengthening, replacement of those substandard
portions of the structure, or additional testing, at the Contractor's expense.
b. Upon receipt of the Contractor's written request, substandard concrete work may be
reexamined in place by nondestructive testing methods or core Samples, in accordance
with ACI 301. The services of an independent testing laboratory shall be retained and
all expenses paid without compensation from the Owner. Laboratory results shall be
evaluated by the Engineer, who shall make the final decision on acceptability of the
concrete in question. Core Sample holes shall be repaired.
B. The Owner may withhold payment for any section of concrete which does not meet the
requirements of the Specifications. Withheld payment shall be based upon the unit prices
established for concrete and reinforcing steel. Payment shall be withheld until the unacceptable
concrete has been refinished, removed and replaced or otherwise brought into conformance
with the Specifications.
C. PVC/TPER/PE Waterstops: Waterstops shall be observed by the Owner's representative prior
to concrete placement. Unacceptable splicing defects include:
1. Misalignment of center bulb, ribs, and end bulbs greater than 1/16 inch.
2. Bond failure at joint deeper than 1/16 inch.

and approved for sealant adhesion and compatibility by sealant manufacturer), old joint
sealants, oil, grease, waterproofing, water repellents, water
2. , surface dirt, and frost.
3. Clean porous joint substrate surfaces by brushing, grinding, mechanical abrading, or a
combination of these methods to produce a clean, sound substrate capable of develop-
ing optimum bond with joint sealants. Remove loose particles remaining after cleaning
operations above by vacuuming or blowing out joints with oil -free compressed air. Po-
rous joint substrates include the following:
a. Concrete.
b. Masonry.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Examine substrates, areas, and conditions, with Applicator present, for compliance with
requirements for paint application.
1. Proceed with paint application only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected and
surfaces receiving paint are thoroughly dry.
2. Start of painting will be construed as Applicator's acceptance of surfaces and conditions
within a particular area.
B. Maximum Moisture Contents of Substrates: When measured with an electronic moisture meter
as follows:
1. Masonry (Clay and CMUs): 12 percent
2. Gypsum Board: 12 percent
C. Coordination of Work: Review other Sections in which primers are provided to ensure
compatibility of the total system for various substrates. On request, furnish information on
characteristics of finish materials to ensure use of compatible primers.
1. Notify Architect about anticipated problems when using the materials specified over
substrates primed by others.
3.2 PREPARATION
A. General: Remove hardware and hardware accessories, plates, machined surfaces, lighting
fixtures, and similar items already installed that are not to be painted. If removal is impractical
or impossible because of size or weight of the item, provide surface -applied protection before
surface preparation and painting.
1. After completing painting operations in each space or area, reinstall items removed using
workers skilled in the trades involved.
B. Cleaning: Before applying paint or other surface treatments, clean substrates of substances that
could impair bond of the various coatings. Remove oil and grease before cleaning.
1. Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process
will not fall on wet, newly painted surfaces.
C. Surface Preparation: Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturer's
written instructions for each particular substrate condition and as specified.
1. Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime.
2. Cementitious Materials: Prepare concrete, concrete unit masonry, cement plaster. Remove
efflorescence, chalk, dust, dirt, grease, oils, and release agents. Roughen as required to
remove glaze. If hardeners or sealers have been used to improve curing, use mechanical
methods of surface preparation.
a. Use abrasive blast -cleaning methods if recommended by paint manufacturer.
b. Determine alkalinity and moisture content of surfaces by performing appropriate tests.
If surfaces are sufficiently alkaline to cause the finish paint to blister and burn, correct
this condition before application. Do not paint surfaces if moisture content exceeds that
permitted in manufacturer's written instructions.

3. Ferrous Metals: Clean ungalvanized ferrous -metal surfaces that have not been shop coated;
remove oil, grease, dirt, loose mill scale, and other foreign substances. Use solvent or
mechanical cleaning methods that comply with SSPC's recommendations.
a. Blast steel surfaces clean as recommended by paint system manufacturer.
b. Treat bare and sandblasted or pickled clean metal with a metal treatment wash coat
before priming.
c. Touch up bare areas and shop -applied prime coats that have been damaged. Wire -brush,
clean with solvents recommended by paint manufacturer, and touch up with same primer
as the shop coat.
4. Galvanized Surfaces: Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents so
surface is free of oil and surface contaminants. Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet
metal fabricated from coil stock by mechanical methods.
5. Pretreat galvanized surfaces by one of the following methods:
a. Phosphating: Apply a phosphate -containing solution to form a non -reactive zinc
phosphate layer on the surface.
b. Sweep Blasting: Provide a light blast cleaning intended to remove zinc oxides on the
surface and roughen it without significant removal of the galvanizing. Sweep blasting
should be performed with soft abrasives. Use an abrasive with a Mob's scale hardness of
5 or less. The particle size should be in the range of 8 to 20 mils.
6. Shop -Primed Steel Substrates: Clean field welds, bolted connections, and areas where shop
paint is abraded. Paint exposed areas with the same material as used for shop priming to
comply with SSPC-PA 1 for touching up shop -primed surfaces.
7. Galvanized -Metal Substrates: Remove grease and oil residue from galvanized sheet metal
by mechanical methods to produce clean, lightly etched surfaces that promote adhesion of
subsequently applied paints.
8. Gypsum Board Substrates: Verify that finishing compound is sanded smooth.
D. Material Preparation: Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturer's written
instructions.
1. Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition, free of foreign
materials and residue.
2. Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density. Stir as required
during application. Do not stir surface film into material. If necessary, remove surface film
and strain material before using.
3. Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended limits.
E. Tinting: Tint each undercoat a lighter shade to simplify identification of each coat when
multiple coats of same material are applied. Tint undercoats to match the color of the finish
coat but provide sufficient differences in shade of undercoats to distinguish each separate coat.

3.3 APPLICATION
A. General: Apply paint according to manufacturer's written instructions. Use applicators and
techniques best suited for substrate and type of material being applied.
1. Paint colors, surface treatments, and finishes are indicated in the paint schedules.
2. Do not paint over dirt, rust, scale, grease, moisture, scuffed surfaces, or conditions
detrimental to formation of a durable paint film.
3. Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used.
4. The term "exposed surfaces" includes areas visible when permanent or built-in fixtures,
grilles, convector covers, covers for finned -tube radiation, and similar components are in
place. Extend coatings in these areas, as required, to maintain system integrity and provide
desired protection.
5. Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed
surfaces. Before final installation of equipment, paint surfaces behind permanently fixed
equipment or furniture with prime coat only.
6. Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat, nonspecular black paint where visible through
registers or grilles.
7. Paint back sides of access panels and removable or hinged covers to match exposed
surfaces.
8. Finish doors on tops, bottoms, and side edges the same as faces.
9. Sand lightly between each succeeding coat.
B. Scheduling Painting: Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned, pretreated, or
otherwise prepared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before subsequent
surface deterioration.
1. The number of coats and film thickness required are the same regardless of application
method. Do not apply succeeding coats until previous coat has cured as recommended by
manufacturer. If sanding is required to produce a smooth, even surface according to
manufacturer's written instructions, sand between applications.
2. Omit primer over metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted.
3. If undercoats, stains, or other conditions show through final coat of paint, apply additional
coats until paint film is of uniform finish, color, and appearance. Give special attention to
ensure that edges, corners, crevices, welds, and exposed fasteners receive a dry film
thickness equivalent to that of flat surfaces.
4. Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying. Do not recoat
surfaces until paint has dried to where it feels firm, and does not deform or feel sticky under
moderate thumb pressure, and until application of another coat of paint does not cause
undercoat to lift or lose adhesion.
C. Application Procedures: Apply paints and coatings by brush, roller, spray, or other applicators
according to manufacturer's written instructions.
1. Brushes: Use brushes best suited for type of material applied. Use brush of appropriate
size for surface or item being painted.
2. Rollers: Use rollers of carpet, velvet -back, or high -pile sheep's wool as recommended by
manufacturer for material and texture required.
