110 Low Strength Concrete Payment 408/2011 Change 6

• 110.10 Evaluation, Disposition, and Adjusted Payment for Low Strength Cement Concrete – PWLs no longer computed for evaluation and disposition of

low-strength concrete used for cast-in-place operations • Uses average compressive strengths of cylinders or cores • Uses standard deviation (s) of 350 psi for all calculations • PWLs no longer computed • F’(cores) ≥ F’(cs) + s, accepted at adjusted payment • F’(cores) < F’(cs) + s, remove and replace

7

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Attempt to simplify low-strength concrete evaluation and acceptance so you no longer need to calculate the percentage within limits of the 28-day compressive strength [F’(28-day)], the 28-day structural design compressive strength [F’(c)], and the 28-day critical compressive strength [F’(cs)]. Now, you take the average compressive strength of the cores/cylinders and compare it to the (Section 110 Table A critical compressive strength + 350 psi) to determine the adjusted payment.

110 Low Strength Concrete Payment 408/2011 Change 6

• 110.10 Evaluation, Disposition, and Adjusted Payment for Low Strength Cement Concrete

8

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Added Critical Compressive Strengths for AAAP and HPC. These are the Section 110 Table A critical compressive strengths you add to the 350 psi to determine the adjusted payment.

• 501.3(k)4 Final Finish – C-a00003-A Changes to Specifications Section 501 S-13-017 – Allows Contractor’s request to use longitudinal texturing in lieu

of the random, transverse texturing pattern or may be required by the District, if indicated

• Requires burlap drag or broom device for macrotexture • Requires final texture pattern with grooves

– parallel with centerline – rectangular in shape; – 1/8 inch (± 1/64 inch) in width; – 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch in depth; and – 3/4 inch nominal center-to-center tine spacing

15

Longitudinal Texturing of Concrete Pavement Special Provision

Presenter
Presentation Notes
A special provision has been created to allow longitudinal texturing of a concrete pavement in lieu of the random, transverse texturing pattern. If a District elects to require it, they need to indicate it via special provision or in the plans. The contractor may also submit a request to use it. The spec requires the finishing machine to be equipped with a burlap drag or a broom device to produce an initial macrotexture. Pay close attention to the tine grooves so they are straight and spaced at 3/4-inch center-to-center.

www.dot.state.pa.us

• 501.3(q) Opening to Traffic – Added permission to use the maturity method (PTM No. 640)

for opening to traffic • Still cannot be opened prior to 96 hours (72 hours for HES)

Presentation Notes
PTM No. 640 is a new PTM for using the maturity method of estimating concrete compressive strengths.

www.dot.state.pa.us 18

PTM No. 640 Maturity Method for Strength Pub. 19/October 2013

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Equipment requirements include a concrete maturity meter and temperature sensors. The PTM also requires the same brand and types of meters and sensors to be used in the field as those used to develop the strength-maturity relationship at the concrete plant for the mix.

www.dot.state.pa.us

• 504.2 Material, 504.3(d) Base Course and 504.4 Measurement and Payment – Added reference to new Section 311 Superpave Asphalt Mixture

of lifting equipment and hardware, including capacities from the manufacturer for each size pipe being installed, and a daily visual review for wear and tear of the equipment

24

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Through-wall lift holes are permitted only if formed during the manufacturing process or cored after the pipe is cured. Punch-through methods are prohibited. In advance of installation, the Contractor is to submit to the Representative a detailed list of lifting equipment and hardware, including their rated capacity from the manufacturer for each size of pipe being installed. In addition, perform a visual review of the lifting equipment and hardware each day before installation for signs of damage or wear. Replace damaged or worn lifting equipment and hardware before use.

Remediation of Pipe Defects

26

Presenter
Presentation Notes
QA gets a lot of questions about what to do should a pipe inspection indicate defects. POM C/6/11 includes some potential remediation strategies depending on the type of defect and the size of the pipe.

www.dot.state.pa.us

627 and 628 Temporary Barrier and Reset 408/2011 Change 5

• Table A – Reduced the Maximum Cement Factor for AAAP from 752 to

690 lbs/CY • To reduce bridge deck cracking

• Maturity Method

– Added permission to use the maturity method (PTM No. 640) • Time requirement must still be met • In case of malfunction, recommend molding cylinders • Cannot be used for 28-day QC, AT, VT or QA strengths

28

704 Cement Concrete 408/2011 Change 6

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Section 704 was revised to reduce the maximum cement factor for AAAP to reduce deck cracking. It also allows maturity meters to be used for form removal and loading but not for acceptance. Therefore, you will still need to make cylinders for 28-day Quality Control and Acceptance used in the acceptance process and for Verification and Independent Assurance used to validate the acceptance process.

www.dot.state.pa.us

• Revised Reference from AASHTO T 141 to AASHTO R 60 – Still says to sample 1st 1/3 of the batch when sampling from

revolving drum truck mixers or agitators • Please note the AASHTO R 60 Section modified should read Section

5.2.4 instead of Section 5.2.5 – Section 5.2.5 was the AASHTO T 141 reference

29

PTM No. 601 Sampling Fresh Concrete Pub. 19/October 2013

Presenter
Presentation Notes
PTM No. 601 was revised to reference AASHTO R 60 instead of AASHTO T 141. The new PTM still modifies the AASHTO Section for Sampling from Revolving Drum Truck Mixers or Agitators, however, the Section Number referenced is incorrect. It references the old AASHTO T 141 Section 5.2.5 and should reference the new AASHTO R 60 Section 5.2.4.
