<br /> <br />THE CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH <br />PROJECT NO. 21-1011 <br />BUILDING DEPARTMENT RELOCATION TO ANNEX <br /> <br />Project No. 21-1011 November 2024 031000 -10 <br />A. Slip dowels in joints shall be smooth epoxy-coated bars, conforming to ASTM A 775. <br />2.10 PVC TUBING: <br />A. PVC tubing in joints shall be Schedule SDR 13.5, conforming to ASTM D 2241. <br />2.11 CHAMFER STRIP: <br />A. Provide three quarter inch triangular fillets, milled clear straight grained wood, surfaced <br />each side, or extruded vinyl type, with or without nail flange to form all exposed concrete <br />edges such as columns, pilasters, beams, curbs, equipment pads, tops of walls, and as <br />indicated. Unless otherwise indicated, exterior corners in concrete members shall be <br />provided with 3/4” chamfers. Re-entrant corners in concrete members shall not have <br />fillets, unless otherwise indicated. <br />PART 3 - EXECUTION <br />3.1 FORMS: <br />A. Forms shall conform to the shape, lines, and dimensions as shown on the Drawings and <br />shall be substantial and sufficiently tight to prevent leakage. Forms shall be properly <br />braced or tied so as to maintain position and shape. Plumb and string lines shall be <br />installed before concrete placement and shall be maintained during placement. Such lines <br />shall be used by CONTRACTOR's personnel and by the ENGINEER and shall be in sufficient <br />number and properly installed. During concrete placement, the CONTRACTOR shall <br />continually monitor plumb and string line form positions and immediately correct <br />deficiencies. <br />B. The CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible for the adequacy of the formwork in its entirety <br />and any forms that are unsafe or inadequate in any respect shall promptly be removed <br />from the WORK and replaced. The CONTRACTOR shall provide worker protection from <br />protruding reinforcement bars in accordance with applicable safety codes. <br />C. CONTRACTOR may reuse forms only if in good condition and only if acceptable to the <br />ENGINEER. Reused forms shall be thoroughly cleaned and may require light sanding <br />between uses to obtain a uniform surface texture on all exposed concrete surfaces. Forms <br />shall not be reused if they have developed defects that would affect the surface texture of <br />exposed concrete. Exposed concrete surfaces are defined as surfaces, which are <br />permanently exposed to view. In the case of forms for the inside wall surfaces of <br />hydraulic/water retaining structures, unused tie rod holes in forms shall be covered with <br />metal caps or shall be filled by other methods acceptable to the ENGINEER <br />D. Forms shall be sufficiently tight to prevent leakage. Forms shall be properly braced or tied <br />together to maintain their position and shape under a load of freshly-placed concrete. If <br />adequate foundation for shores cannot be secured, trussed supports shall be provided. <br />E. Immediately before the placing of reinforcing, faces of all forms in contact with concrete <br />shall receive a thorough coating of form release agent. Any excess agent shall be <br />satisfactorily removed before placing concrete. If using mineral oil, the CONTRACTOR shall <br />oil the forms at least two weeks in advance of their use. Care shall be exercised to keep <br />oil/release agent off the surfaces of steel reinforcement and other items to be embedded <br />in concrete.
