following: <br /> 1 . Air temperature of 45 degrees F . to 80 degrees F . = 90 minutes maximum. <br /> 2 . Air temperature over 80 degrees F. with a retarder added to the mix = 90 minutes <br /> maximum. <br /> 3 . Air temperature over 80 degrees F . without a retarder added to the mix = 60 minutes <br /> maximum. <br /> E. PLACING CONCRETE <br /> The concrete shall be deposited on the grade in such a manner as to require as little re-handling <br /> as possible. It shall be deposited in successive batches in a continuous operation. The <br /> concrete shall be consolidated by suitable means so as to preclude the formation of voids <br /> or honeycomb pockets . <br /> F . PLACING IN COLD WEATHER <br /> The Contractor shall be responsible for protecting concrete placed in cold weather and any <br /> concrete damaged by frost action shall be removed and replaced at his expense. <br /> 3 .04 FINISHING <br /> A. The concrete shall be struck off, consolidated and finished with mechanical equipment in <br /> such a manner that after final finishing, it shall conform to the pavement cross section shown <br /> on the Plans. Hand finishing will be permitted in narrow widths, areas of irregular dimensions, <br /> and in the event of breakdown of the mechanical equipment, to finish the concrete already <br /> deposited on the grade. <br /> B . FINAL SURFACE FINISH <br /> The finished surface of the concrete pavement shall have a uniform skid resistant texture formed <br /> by a burlap drag or a stiff broom as required by the Engineer' s Representative, <br /> C . PAVEMENT EXPOSED TO RAIN DURING CONSTRUCTION <br /> 1 . The Contractor shall have, always available, materials to protect the surface of the <br /> plastic concrete against rain. Areas of the pavement surface where the texture has <br /> been damaged by the protective cover shall be re-textured and cured unless the <br /> concrete has hardened. Areas of pavement surface that exhibit a smooth sandy appearance <br /> after the rain ceases shall be textured and cured. An attempt shall be made to impart the <br /> specified texture to these areas before applying the membrane curing material. No other <br /> remedial work shall be required. Areas that have suffered some surface erosion and <br /> have coarse aggregate exposed shall be reworked by hand methods or with the <br /> finishing machine when the form paving method is used. Fresh concrete containing <br /> the same materials and properties as the pavement concrete shall be added to maintain <br /> an adequate supply in front of the screeds or machine to assure replacement of the <br /> concrete eroded from the surface. The surface shall then be textured and cured as specified. <br /> 2 . If pavement edges have been severely eroded and the concrete has not set, the edges shall <br /> 02752 — Concrete Paving <br /> 02752- 6 <br />
