TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
I. SITE WORK
A. WORK INCLUDED
1. Staking out of building, establishment of lines, grades and bench marks.
2. All excavation works including all necessary shoring bracing, and drainage of storm water from site.
3. All back filling, filling and grading, removal of excess material on site.
4. Protection of property, work and structures, workmen, and other people from damage and injury.
B. LINES, GRADES AND BENCHMARKS
1. Stake out accurately the lines of the building and of the other structures included in the contract, and
established grade therefore, after which secure approval by Architect before any excavation work is
commenced.
2. Erect basic better boards and basic reference marks, at such places where they will not be disturbed
during the construction of the foundations.
C. EXCAVATION
1. STRUCTURAL EXCAVATIONS- Excavations shall be to the depths indicated bearings values.
Excavation for footings and foundations carried below required depths shall be filled with concrete,
and bottom of such shall be level. All structural excavations shall be extended a sufficient distance
from the walls and footings to allow for proper erection and dismantling of forms, for installation of
service and for inspection. All excavations shall be inspected and approved before pouring any
concrete, laying underground services for placing select fill materials.
D. FILLING AND BACKFILLING
1. After forms have been removed from footings, piers, foundations, walls, etc. and when concrete work
is hard enough to resist pressure resulting from fill, back filling may then be done. Materials
excavated may be used for back filling. All filling shall be placed in layers not exceeding six (6) inches
in thickness, each layer being thoroughly compacted and rammed by wetting, tamping, rolling.

E. PLACING AND COMPACTING FILL

1. COMMON FILL- Shall be approved site-excavated material free from roots, stumps and other
perishable or objectionable matter.
2. SELECT FILL- shall be placed where indicated and shall consist of crushed gravel, crushed rock, or a
combination thereof. The material shall be free from adobe, vegetable matters and shall be
thoroughly tamped after placing.
3. Before placing fill material, the surface upon which it will be placed shall be cleared of all brush roots,
vegetable matters and debris, scarified and thoroughly wet to insure good bonding between the
ground.
F. DISPOSAL OF SURPLUS MATERIALS
1. Any excess material remaining after the completion of the earthwork shall be disposed of by hauling
and spreading in nearby spoil areas designated by the owner. Excavated material deposited in the
spoil areas shall be graded to a uniform surface.
II.CONCRETE AND REINFORCED CONCRETE
A. GENERAL
1. Unless otherwise specified herein, concrete work shall conform to the requirements of the ACI Building
Code. Full cooperation shall be given other trades to install embedded items. Provisions shall be
made for setting items not placed in the forms. Before concrete is placed, embedded items shall
have been expected and tested for concrete aggregates and other materials shall have been done.
B. MATERIALS
1. Cement for the concrete shall conform to the requirements of specification for Portland Cement
(ASTM C-150)
2. Water used in mixing concrete shall be clean and free from other injurious amounts of oils, acids,
alkaline, organic materials or other substances that may be deleterious to concrete or steel.
3. Fine aggregates shall consist of hard, tough, durable, not coated particles. The shape of the

rock, coarse aggregates shall consist of hard, tough, durable, clean and not coated particles. The size
of coarse aggregates to be used in the various parts of the work shall be in accordance with the
following: size -3/4 for all concreting works.

2. CLASS OF CONCRETE- Concrete shall have a 28-day cylinder strength of 3, 000 psi, for all concrete
work, unless otherwise indicated on plans.
3. MIXING- Concrete shall be machine mixed. Mixing shall begin within 30 minutes after the cement has
been added to the aggregates. In the absence of a concrete mixer, manual mixing is allowed.
D. FORMS
1. GENERAL- Forms shall be used wherever necessary to confine the concrete and shape it to the
required lines, or to ensure the concrete of contamination with materials caving from adjacent,
excavated surfaces. Forms shall have sufficient strength to withstand the pressure resulting from
placement and vibration of the concrete, and shall be maintained rigidly in correct position. Forms
shall be sufficiently fight to prevent loss of mortar from the concrete. Forms for exposed surfaces
against from back fill is not to be placed shall be lines with a form grade plywood.
2. CLEANING AND OILING OF FORMS- Before placing the concrete, the contact surfaces of the form
shall be cleansed of encrustations of mortar, the grout or the other foreign material, and shall be
coated with a commercial form oil that will effectively prevent sticking and will not stain the concrete
surfaces.
3. REMOVAL OF FORMS- forms shall be removed in a manner which will prevent damage to be
concrete. Forms shall not be removed without approval. Any repairs of surface imperfections shall be
performed at once and airing shall be started as soon as the surface is sufficiently hard to permit it
without further damage.
E. PLACING REINFORCEMENT
1. GENERAL- Steel reinforcement shall be provided as indicated, together with all necessary wire ties,
chairs, spacers, supported and other devices necessary to install and secure the reinforcement
properly. All reinforcement, when placed, shall be free from loose, flaky rust and scale, oil grease, clay
and other coating and foreign substances that would reduce or destroy its bond with concrete.
Reinforcement shall be placed accurately and secured in place by use of metal or concrete. The
supports shall be used in such manner that they will not be exposed or contribute on any way, to the
discoloration or deterioration of the concrete.
F. CONVEYING AND PLACING CONCRETE:
1.CONVEYING- Concrete shall be conveyed from mixer to forms as rapidly as practicable, methods

authorized.
2. PLACING- Concrete shall be worked readily into the corners and angles of the forms and around all
reinforcement and embedded items without permitting the material to segregate. Concrete shall be
deposited as close as possible to its final positions in the forms so that flows within the mass does not
exceed two meters (2) meters and consequent segregation is reduced to a minimum near forms or
embedded items, or elsewhere as directed, the discharged shall be controlled that the concrete may
be effectively compacted into horizontal layers not exceeding 30 cm in depth within the maximum
lateral movement.

3. TIME INTERVAL BETWEEN MIXING AND PLACING. Concrete shall be placed before initial set has
occurred and before it has contained its water content for more than 45 minutes.
4. CONSOLIDATION OF CONCRETE- Concrete shall be consolidated with the aid of mechanical
vibrating equipment and supplemented by hand spading and tamping. Vibrators shall not be inserted
to a lower coarse that have commenced initial set; and reinforcement embedded in concrete
beginning to set or already set shall not be disturbed by vibrators. Consolidation around major
embedded parts shall be by hand spading and tamping and vibrators shall be used.
5. PLACING CONCRETE TO THROUGH REINFORCEMENT. In placing concrete to reinforcement, care
shall be taken that no segregation of coarse aggregates occurs. On the bottom of beams and slabs,
where the congestion of steel near the forms makes placing difficult, a layer of mortar of the same
cement-sand ratios as used in concrete shall be first deposited to cover the surface.
G. CURING:
1. GENERAL- All concrete shall be moist cured for a period not less than seven (7) consecutive days
by an approved method or combination applicable to local conditions.

burlap plastic or other approved materials thoroughly saturated with water and keeping the covering
wet spraying.

shall be formed with plywood, and after removal of forms, the surfaces shall be smoothed, true to a
line and shall be present or finished appearance except for minor defects which can be easily be
repaired with patching with cement mortar, or can be grounded to a smooth surface to removal all joint
marks of the form work.

consisting of sub-grade and granular fill with thickness equal to the thickness of overlay slab except as
indicated otherwise.
