features, such as larger footings, piles, increased <br /> compactions, etc. <br /> Fill and backfill shall be compacted to 95% of maximum <br /> density at optimum moisture, as determined by ASTM D- <br /> 1557, Method D, or AASHTO Specification Method T-180. <br /> Building site shall be kept clear of rubble and any material, <br /> which may be hazardous to persons or impede construction <br /> progress. <br /> 2. Soil Treatment—Termite Control <br /> When structures are to be constructed of, or are to contain, <br /> any wood or wood products, soil treatment shall be required <br /> for termite control. <br /> Chemicals shall be one of the following water-based <br /> emulsions, uniform in composition, containing a dye that will <br /> be readily seen to the naked eye after application to the soil, <br /> and containing in concentration by weight: <br /> a. Dieldrin, 0.5 percent <br /> b. Aldrin, 0.5 percent <br /> C. Heptochlor, 0.5 percent <br /> iIiiw d. Or equal <br /> Application of chemical selected shall be made to all areas <br /> along foundation walls, around piers and under all concrete <br /> slabs at the following rates: <br /> a. Foundation walls and piers, all sides — 4 gallons per <br /> 10 linear feet, mixed with backfill, to a depth of(1)foot <br /> below finished grade for concrete; for masonry, <br /> increase application rate proportionately by depth of <br /> foundation or piers. <br /> b. Within voids of masonry foundation walls or piers, <br /> apply to void at or near bottom of foundation at rate of <br /> 2 gallons for each 10 linear feet. <br /> C. Under all concrete slabs less than 6 feet below finish <br /> grade—(1) gallon per 10 square feet. <br /> 3. Concrete Work <br /> Design, material, workmanship and practices shall conform to <br /> American Concrete Institute Manual of Standard Practice <br /> (ACI 315) and the Code of Standard Practice of the Concrete <br /> Reinforcing Steel Institute(CRSI). <br /> Field and laboratory tests shall be conducted by independent <br /> testing laboratory on structural concrete pours for buildings to <br /> ascertain that concrete design slumps and strengths are <br /> attained. <br /> 16-5 <br />
