Available storage capacity is calculated as the design storage capacity in days minus the number of days of net storage volume accumulated. The start date is a value entered by the user and is defined as the date prior to applying nutrients to the first crop in the plan at which storage volume in the Iagoon or holding pond is equal to zero. Available storage capacity should be greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the design storage capacity of the facility. If the available storage capacity is greater than the design storage capacity, this indicates that the plan calls for the application of nutrients that have not yet accumulated. if available storage capacity is negative, the estimated volume of accumulated waste exceeds the design storage volume of the structure. Either of these situations indicates that the planned application interval in the waste utilization plan is inconsistent with the structure's temporary storage capacity.

Animal waste shall not reach surface waters of the state by runoff, drift, manmade conveyances, direct application, or direct discharge during operation or land application. Any discharge of waste that reaches surface water is prohibited. 2. There must be documentation in the design folder that the producer either owns or has an agreement for use of adequate land on which to properly apply the waste. If the producer does not own adequate land to properly dispose of the waste, he/she shall provide evidence of an agreement with a landowner, who is within a reasonable proximity, allowing him/her the use of the land for waste application. It is the responsibility of the owner of the waste production facility to secure an update of the Nutrient Management Plan when there is a change in the operation, increase in the number of animals, method of application, receiving crop type, or available land. 3.. Animal waste shall be applied to meet, but not exceed, the nitrogen needs for realistic crop yields based upon soil type, available moisture, historical data, climatic conditions, and level of management, unless there are regulations that restrict the rate of applications for other nutrients. 4. AnimaI waste shall be applied to land eroding less than 5 tons per acre per year. Waste may be applied to land eroding at more than 5 tons per acre per year but less than 10 tons per acre per year provided grass filter strips are installed where runoff leaves the field (see USDA, NRCS Field Office Technical Guide Standard 393 -Filter Strips). 5. Odors can be reduced by injecting the waste or by disking after waste application. Waste should not be applied when there is danger of drift from the land application field. 6. When animal waste is to be applied on acres subject to flooding, waste.will be soil incorporated on conventionally tilled cropland. When waste is applied to conservation tilled crops or grassland, the waste may be broadcast provided the application does not occur during a season prone to flooding (see "Weather and Climate in North Carolina" for guidance). 7. Liquid waste shall be applied at rates not to exceed the soil infiltration rate such that runoff does not occur offsite or to surface waters and in a method which does not cause drift from the site during application. No ponding should occur in order to control odor and flies. ------------ -- -- ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 829035 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed; 3/1/2007 Specification Page 1 8. Animal waste shall not be applied to saturated soils, during rainfall events, or when the soil surface is frozen. 9. Animal waste shall be applied on actively growing crops in such a manner that the crop is not covered with waste to a depth that would inhibit growth. The potential for salt damage from animal waste should also be considered. 10. Nutrients from waste shall not be applied in fall or winter for spring planted crops on soils with a high potential for leaching. Waste/nutrient loading rates on these soils should be held to a minimum and a suitable winter cover crop planted to take up released nutrients. Waste shall not be applied more than 30 days prior to planting of the crop or forages breaking dormancy. 11. Any new swine facility sited on or after October 1,1995 shall comply with the following: The outer perimeter of the land area onto which waste is applied from a lagoon that is a component of a swine farm shall be at least 50 feet from any residential property boundary and canal. Animal waste, other than swine waste from facilities sited on or after October 1,1995, shall not be applied closer that 25 feet to perennial waters. 12. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 100 feet to wells. 13. Animal waste shall not be applied closer than 200 feet of dwellings other than those owned by the landowner. 14. Waste shall be applied in a manner not to reach other property and public right-of-ways. 15. Animal waste shall not be discharged into surface waters, drainageways, or wetlands by a discharge or by over -spraying. Animal waste may be applied to prior converted cropland provided the fields have been approved as a land application site by a "technical specialist". Animal waste shall not be applied on grassed waterways that discharge directly into water courses, and on other grassed waterways, waste shall be applied at agronomic rates in a manner that causes no runoff or drift from the site. 16. Domestic and industrial waste from washdown facilities, showers, toilets, sinks, etc., shall not be discharged into the animal waste management system. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------- 829035 Database Version 3.1 Date Printed: 3/1/2007 Specification Page 2 17. A protective cover of appropriate vegetation will be established on all disturbed areas (lagoon embankments, berms, pipe runs, etc.). Areas shall be fenced, as necessary, to protect the vegetation. Vegetation such as trees, shrubs, and other woody species,etc., are limited to areas where considered appropriate. Lagoon areas should be kept mowed and accessible. Berms and structures should be inspected regularly for evidence of erosion, leakage, or discharge. 18. If animal production at the facility is to be suspended or terminated, the owner is responsible for obtaining and implementing a "closure plan" which will eliminate the possibility of an illegal discharge, pollution, and erosion. 19. Waste handling structures, piping, pumps, reels, etc., should be inspected on a regular basis to prevent breakdowns, leaks, and spills. A regular maintenance checklist should be kept on site. 20. Animal waste can be used in a rotation that includes vegetables and other crops for direct human consumption. However, if animal waste is used on crops for direct human consumption, it should only be applied pre -plant with no further applications of animal waste during the crop season. 21. Highly visible markers shall be installed to mark the top and bottom elevations of the temporary storage (pumping volume) of all waste treatment lagoons. Pumping shall be managed to maintain the liquid level between the markers. A marker will be required to mark the maximum storage volume for waste storage ponds. 22. Waste shall be tested within 60 days of utilization and soil shall be tested at least annually at crop sites where waste products are applied. Nitrogen shall be the rate -determining nutrient, unless other restrictions require waste to be applied based on other nutrients, resulting in a lower application rate than a nitrogen based rate. Zinc and copper levels in the soils shall be monitored and alternative crop sites shall be used when these metals approach excessive levels. pH shall be adjusted and maintained for optimum crop production.

Plant 1-2" deep. Adequate depth control is essential. Review the NCSU Official Variety "green book" and information from private companies to select a high yielding variety with the characteristics needed for your area and conditions. Apply 10 to 12 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield. All nitrogen can be applied at planting. Also acceptable is to apply 2/3 to 3/4 of the nitrogen at planting and the rest when corn is in the 7 to 9 leaf stage, Tropical corn for silage needs about 6-8 lbs. nitrogen per ton of expected yield applying no more than 100 to 120 lbs total nitrogen. Research has shown that nitrogen can be reduced by approximately 15 percent when soil injected. The total N is dependent on the soil type and expected yield, Apply phosphorus and potassium according to a soil test before planting. Phosphorus is best utilized when banded with the planter as a starter. Plant samples can be analyzed during the growing season to monitor the nutrient status of the corn.

Waste Management Problems Mr. Ross has 165 dairy cows confined on concrete. The freestalls are under roof. Manure slurry is stored in a pit behind the freestall and feedlot area. The present storage pit is undersized and the embankment will not meet minimum acceptable criteria for earth embankments. Runoff from 0.8 acre concrete feed area beside milking parlor and freestall barn is diverted to a draw located approximately 50 ft away. Milking parlor wash water dumps directly into a ditch. Also, some unsafe conditions exist at push off ramp (no safety rails or slope protection) and around existing pond (no permanent fencing). Ii. Waste Management Objective A system will be planned to economically as possible handle all the problems described above in a manner that does not degrade air, soil or water resources. The system planned will prevent discharge. of pollutants to surface and ground water by recycling waste through soil and plants. The following design and plans will be required: A. Waste Storage Pond for Manure, Polluted Runoff and Milking Parlor Wash Water A pond will be designed to store manure, polluted runoff from concrete lot and milking parlor wash water. Approximately 0.7 acre of concrete lot is obsolete and will be removed from the cows. Approximately 0.2 acre of concrete lot will be collected in the pond. The waste - storage pond- volume-- (s-torageperiod)...-is- -the.-main - factor which determines the management which will be required to prevent an illegal discharge. Polluted water should not be applied to.land that is frozen, snow covered, or saturated. A storage period of 6 months would be desirable to allow flexibility in managing the application system to prevent a discharge. The Waste storage pond will be located over 100 ft. from the nearest well. The waste storage pond is located no closer than 350 ft. from any residence other than the owner or his tenants. B. Clean Water Exclusion Clean water will be excluded from the feedlot and waste storage pond to the fullest extent possible. Diversions, piping, roofing, and guttering will be used where practical. Most of existing concrete will be excluded from cow traffic. C. Livestock Exclusion Livestock shall be fenced out of waste storage pond. Safety rails and fencing shall be installed at push off ramp. D. Waste Utilization Sufficient land shall be available to properly spread waste at locations, times, volumes, and rates that maintains air, soil and water resources. Waste applications will be based on soil and waste analysis. A waste utilization plan will be prepared. E. Operation and Maintenance Plan The owner shall be responsible for operating and maintaining the system. An operation plan will be prepared. III. Waste Storage Pond for Manure, Polluted Runoff and Milking Parlor Wash Water The waste storage pond will be designed to store Manure, polluted runoff and milking parlor wash water for a 5 month storage period.

If a 3000 gal tanker is used, 244 loads will be hauled each six months. This is 1,465,314 gallons per year or 24.3 gals/caw/day. Max. Elev. = 1 + .5 + 3935 cu ft/(98 X 153) = 1.8' D. Pump out elevation and ESW elevation The waste storage pond for manure should be pumped before the manure level reaches the 25 yr - 24 hr storage volume. This elevation is 1.8 ft below the top of dam elevation. The emergency spillway elevation is planned 1 foot below the top of dam elevation. IV. Clean Water Exclusion A. Diversions Clean water diversions will be constructed around waste storage pond. The District Conservationist will design all diversions. Diversions shall be designed to carry the 25 year - 24 hour runoff plus capacity to store some sediment. B. Guttering Clean water shall be excluded to the fullest extent possible by guttering. Guttering will be designed by Engineering Staff at area Office. Typically barns require 6" guttering with 31, X 411 downspouts which outlet into 6" PVC or Steel Pipe. C. Roofing Roofing will be constructed over feed areas on existing concrete to minimize polluted water. Approximately 0.7 acres of concrete lot will be removed from cattle. See drawings for obsolete concrete. Clean water will be guttered or roofed away from feed alley. See drawings for a typical section. Heifer group will also have a feed area roofed. A 12 foot stock trail will be provided across existing concrete to the pasture for heifers. D. Lounging Areas Buffer areas shall be maintained between lounging areas and concentrated water flow areas. Zig Zag fencing above buffers shall be constructed to prevent cattle trails from diverting water from the filter. An alternative is to _--... _....cons-t-ruct --deep--divers-ions-across---- fence., lines- -at-f-requent intervals to force cow trail flow across fence line. Filters shall be 100 ft wide below lounging areas.. r V. Waste Utilization Plan A. Management Facts (liquid manure) Manure will be stored in a waste.storage pond for approximately 6 months and will be conventionally spread. During the course of one year, this facility will store up to 1,465,314 cubic feet of slurry waste. Daily scraping of waste is required to move the waste into the storage facility. If all of one years waste were spread using a 3000 gal. spreader, it would take approximately 488 loads. Assuming 1 load per hour, it would take a total of 488 hours each year to spread the waste. Ground, conditions must be evaluated prior to spreading. Irreversible compaction problems and damage to underground drainage systems may result from the excessive weight of a loaded spreader. Caution should be exercised to insure that waste does not run or wash off from the land. B. Management Facts (polluted water) Runoff from lounging areas will be diverted across 100' grass filter areas. Concrete that is obsolete will be kept clean or removed and area established in grass.. C. Nutrient computations Manure application shall be based on actual soil test and manure analysis.

Operation and Maintenance Plan The waste management system will keep pol.lutants out of the streams and rivers if the 25 yr -24 hr storage capacity is maintained in the waste storage pond and diversions for clean water and polluted runoff are maintained around the system. The waste storage pond for manure shall be pumped before it reaches a point 1.8 ft. below the top of the dam. A post will be set with its top at this elevation. Vegetation around the waste storage pond and structure shall be mowed annually and eroded areas patched. Fencing shall be checked and repaired as required. a Waste Storage Pond For Manure, Polluted Runoff and Milkin Parlor Wash Water Cost Estimate 4arth Fill - 4,652 cu yd @ $2.00 p r u y_�ig $9,304.00 2-3o P 2 VSeeding and Mulching - 2.0 ac @ $516.00 per ac�f $1,032.00 vbiversions - Main diversion around waste storage pond and along upper side of new freestall barn and old barn will be designed by District Conservationist.

Evaluation of Soils for Use for use in Dam Construction By: Sam Bingham, Civil Engineer, NRCS The cutoff trench shall be excavated through all alluvial material and at least I foot into the residual (SM material- parent material). The cutoff trench will follow existing ditch down the valley. The trench shall be deepened to the planned depth and widened to accommodate compaction equipment. NRCS will check this depth prior to backfill. The trench along the lower side of dam maybe constructed on upstream side of the existing fill (ie upstream side of the planned dam). All trenches shall be dewatered prior to placing fill. All alluvial material suitable for use in dam construction must be placed in outside slopes of dam. Clay material (MH and SC) shall be used for cutoff trench and core construction. Mr. Ross indicates that extra clay material is available if on site material is in short supply. Soils in the foundation appear to contain a lot of fines even though they are nonplactic. A clay liner will not.be required unless unexpected soils are found. In lieu of a clay liner the bottom and side slopes shall be scarified 611 deep and compacted. A Sheep foot roller works best in the bottom. The slopes will need compacted with a dozer by walking it up and down the slope. COMPACTION REQUIREMENTS Maximum thickness of layer before compaction is 811 or less. Compaction is equivalent to 6 passes with a sheep V. S.

Whenever practical, this clearing should be delayed until after the dam is built to hold erosion and downstream sedimentation to a minimum. Stumps may be removed or trees may be sawed off as low as practical and stumps left standing. . The foundation of the impoundment structure (dam) shall be cleared of all trees, stumps, roots, brush, sod, and debris. All stumps and all roots exceeding one (1) inch in diameter shall be removed to a minimum depth of one (1) foot. Satisfactory disposition will be made of all debris. After clearing is completed the foundation area shall be loosened thoroughly and roughly leveled, with suitable equipment, before placement of any embankment material. Cutoff Trench; A cutoff trench shall be excavated as shown on the plans. The cutoff trench shall be backfilled in thin layers, not to exceed S inches_ in depth: All standing water shall be removed from the trench before backfilling is started. Embankment Construction: The material placed in the embankment shall be free of sod, roots, stones over 6 inches in diameter,and other objectionable materials. The fill material shall be placed and spread over the entire fill in layers not to exceed 8 inches in thickness. Con- struction of the fill shall be undertaken only at such 'times that the moisture content of the fill material will permit a reasonable degree of compaction. Fill Materials: Borrow areas will be designated on the plans and assigned priority (1, 2, 3, etc.:). All fill material shall be taken from these designated areas. SCS technicians will advise the contractor regarding the maximum depth of cut in each borrow area. The contractor will not exceed this depth. In the event this depth is- exceeded in the impoundment area, it shall be the responsibility of the contractor, without additional cost to the landowner,. to cover the exposed area with a minimum of 2 feet ofimpervious material.

Clearing along streambanks will be to a minimum. 2. Fence TyRes Zinc coating shall be a minimum of Class I or 0.30 ounces per square foot of surface. a. Woven Wire styles,.._and designs of woven wire fencing are designated by a three- or four=digit- -number; example, 1047 or 939. The first or first two digits indicate the number of line wires in the fencing and the last two indicate the height in inches. For example, 1047-12 has 10 line wires, is 47 inches high, and the stay wires are 12 inches apart. The weight of woven wire fencing is determined by the gauge, or size, the number of stay wires, and the filler or intermediate line wires. The lower the gauge number the larger the wire, and the larger the wire the stronger and more durable the fencing.. Field or stock fencing shall meet one of the following fence types: Hei ht Upe Horses 47 inches 1047-12 Cattle 39 inches 939-6 Sheep, Goats, & Hogs 32 inches 832-6 -382-2 Rev.

Woven wire fence shall have l strand of barbed wire placed 4 to 5 inches above the woven wire. Fences for hogs will also include 1,strand of barbed wire placed 2 inches below the woven wire to discourage rooting under the fence. b. Barbed Wire All barbed wire shall consist of 2 strands of wire with 4 point barbs spaced not more than 5 inches apart. Galvanized barbed wire shall be fabricated from 12-1/2 gauge or 15-1/2 gauge strand wire and shall meet the requirements of ASTM A121. Barbed wire fence shall consist of at least 4 strands of 4 point 12 -1/2 or 15-1/2 gauge barbed wire. Spacing of wire for cattle will be (from the ground to the top) 16 inches, 10 inches, 10 inches, and 10 inches. Closer spacing will be required for sheep and goats and additional wires may be required for boundary fences or for small enclosures. See information sheet NC-ECS-124 for spacing. Three -wire fences are sufficient for cross fences where the purpose is rotation of cattle in an ..--intensive-. grazing._man4Lgement. system, C. High Tensile Non -electric Fence One of the first steps is determining the type of high tensile fence required and the fence design. High tensile fence shall be a minimum of 12-1/2 gauge and have tensile strength of 135,000 PSI (ASTM 135). Ground the fencing for safety from lightning. Typical spacing from ground to top wire. (a) Six (6) strands for cattle - 14 inches, 5 inches, 6 inches, 6 inches, 7 inches, 8 inches (Height 46 inches). (b) Six (6) strands for sheep - 4 inches, 5 inches, 5 inches, 5 inches, 6 inches, 6 inches, 7 inches (Height 38 inches). Rev.

September 1994 382-7 2. Number of wires and spacing. The number of wires and spacing shall be designed to accomplish the desired result of the fence. The following are suggested wire spacings and electrical charge for different kinds and classes of animals. When multiple wire systems are used, spacing of wires should be designed to insure facial shock when animal attempts to place.head between wires. In most instances in the southeast, an all positive charge fence will normally suffice. If. experience shows that -the soil on site will dry to the point that it will not cause shock of the animal, then a combination of positive (+) and negative (-) wires should be used. One and two wire electric fences maybe used for within --farm uses such as streamside fencing and subdividing pastures, but may not be.used for property line or roadside fencing. + = positive charged wire, - = ground wire, +%- - positive or ground wire -Wires Animal Fence Height Spacing from Ground Inches Inches 1 Cattle 26 to 32 26 to 32+ Hogs 12 12+. 2 Cattle 24 to 36 18 to 24+/-, 24 to 36+ Cattle 20 to 30 8`to 10+, 20 to 30+ Sheep Goats Hogs 18 3 -... w/calves Div.

See item 6 - Insulation, for guidance. (6) Posts for 1 and 2 wire fences shall be long enough to be set at least 18.inches in the ground and extend at least 2 inches above the height of the fence. On sandy loam and more coarse textured soils the posts shall be at least 24 inches in the ground. Posts for 3 or more wire fences shall be set at least 24 inches into the ground. (7) Spacing of line posts and stays. depend on terrain and number of. wires. Maximum spacing will be in accordance with Table l.. In undulating terrain, space posts and.'stays so that fence height is .maintained. Posts in dips shall be constructed so that they will not pull out of the soil. Two inch or smaller posts will be anchored or wooden posts (3 1/2 inch) set to sufficient depth to resist pull out.

If control, of animals is desired, place offset brackets at 2/3 the height of the animals to be controlled. Insure that no 'wires of the old fence come in contact with the electric fence wire as a short will occur. 4. Corners and Braces A. Braces and end assemblies are required at all corners, gates and angles in the fence line. Single post corner, angle or end brace assemblies or 'PH" Brace assemblies or an equivalent strength brace will be used See Attachment A for criteria on corners, angles or brace assemblies. Rev. September 1994 382-11 B. All underground wire(s) installations must be double insulated, molded, aluminum or high tensile strength steel 12 1/2 gauge or larger wire. The insulation must be high density polyethylene with ultra -violet stabilizer or high density polypropylene with ultra- violet stabilizer. C. Insulators for. steel and other conductive material posts must be high density polyethylene with ultra- violet stabilizer, high density polypropylene with ultra -violet stabilizer or porcelain, that withstands 10,400 volts or more current leakage. D. Insulators for end, corner, and angle braces must be high density polyethylene with ultra -violet stabilizer, high density polypropylene with ultra- violet stabilizer or porcelain. Do not use insulated tubing for attaching around post of.brace assemblies. 7. Gates A.

Scode This specification covers the quality of concrete, steel reinforcement, the forming, placing, curing and other requirements for concrete construction of simple stabs, low walls (not to exceed 4 feet), curbing, aprons, ballast etc. 2. Definitions In this specification, the "engineer" is the designated Natural Resources Conservation Service representative. The "contractor" is the individual or company who performs the construction. 3. Composition Concrete shall be composed of Portland cement, fine and coarse aggregates, water and, when specified, air -entrainment, set retardant or other admixtures. These materials shall conform to the following requirements: Portland Cement - Portland cement shall meet the requirements of ASTM Specification C-150 for Type I cement unless otherwise specified. Cement shall be properly stored and protected from weather, dampness or other destructive agent. Any cement which is damaged will be rejected and not permitted to be used in the work. Acareaate - Fine aggregate shall meet the requirements of N.C. Department of Transportation (DOT) standard size number 2S. Coarse aggregate shall be N.C. DOT size number 57 or 67. Water - Water shall be clean and free from oil, salt, acid, alkali, organic matter or other harmful substances. __.. Design- Mix-- - ._ ._ ._ .__... ._.._ ,_.. . The contractor shall designate the design mix and submit it to the engineer for approval prior to placement of any concrete. Unless authorized by the engineer, the concrete mix will meet the following guidelines for a cubic yard of concrete: Cement 564 lbs. minimum - (6 bags) Coarse aggregate 1850 lbs. maximum Fine aggregate 1450 lbs. maximum Water 6 gal./bag of cement maximum-(36 gallons) The contractor will submit evidence as required by the engineer, showing that the concrete ingredients comply with the requirements of this specification. After the design mix has been approved, no change in the source, character, or grading of the materials shall be made without due notice to the engineer. No new aggregate, nor any aggregate found to differ in quality or properties from the materials on which the design mix has been based shall be used until the engineer NRCS-Nc CONCRETE Area 1 page 1 July 1994 has determined its conformity with specifications and has approved a new design mix based on the new or altered material. 5. Consistent The amount of water used in the concrete- shall be the minimum necessary to obtain the required workability. In no case shall the water content exceed the amount designated in the design mix. The consistency of the concrete shall be such that it can be worked readily into the corners and angles of the forms and around reinforcement with the method of placing employed on the work, but without permitting the materials to segregate or excess free water to collect on the surface. The free water contained in the aggregate must be considered as a part of the mixing water in computing the water content. The slump shall be between 2 and 4 inches when tested by "The Test for Slump of Portland Cement Concrete," ASTM Designation C-143. 6. Mixers and Mixing Concrete may be furnished by batch mixing at the site of work or by ready -mix methods. The mixing equipment shall be capable of combining the aggregate, cement and water into a uniform mixture and of discharging this mixture without segregation. When the concrete is delivered in ready -mix trucks, the .delivery ticket must show the time of batching and the amount of each of the ingredients in the load. 7. Forms Material - Forms shall be of wood, steel, or other approved material. Construction - Forms shall be true to line and grade, mortar -tight and sufficiently rigid to prevent objectionable deformation under load. The form surfaces shall be smooth, free from irregularities, dents, sags, or holes when used for permanently exposed faces. All exposed joints, edges, and external corners shall be chamfered unless otherwise directed or indicated an the drawings. Bolts and rods used for internal ties -shall be so -arranged --that, -when the dorms--are--removed; metal -will -be. not less than one ( Z) inch from any concrete surface. NRCS VC CONCRETE Area 1 Page 2 Juiy i 994 -.Coating• Forms for exposed surfaces shall be coated with a non -staining form oil which shall be applied before the concrete is placed. After oiling, surplus oil an the form surfaces and any oil on the reinforcing steel or other surfaces requiring bond with the concrete shall be removed. Forms for unexposed surfaces may be thoroughly wetted in lieu of oiling immediately before the placing of concrete, except that, in freezing weather, oil shall be used. Removal - All form removal shall be accomplished in such a manner as to prevent injury to the concrete. Forms will not be removed before the expiration of the minimum time indicated below except where otherwise directed or specifically authorized. Beams and deck -type slabs 14 days Walls and slabs in contact with the ground 3 days S. Embedded Items Before concrete is placed, all embedded items will be firmly and securely fastened in place as indicated on the drawings. Embedded items shall be free of oil and other foreign matter. 9. Steel Reinforcement All reinforcement shall be free from flaky rust, oil, grease, paint or other substance which would impair the bond between concrete and steel. Steel bars for concrete reinforcement shall be deformed billet -steal bars, conforming to AS T M Specification A-615, Grade 40. Welded steel wire fabric sliall conform to the requirements of AS T M Specification A-185. Reinforcement shall be accurately placed and secured in position in a manner that will prevent its displacement during placement of the concrete. Splices of reinforcing bars shall provide an overlap equal to at least 30 times the diameter of the smaller bar in the splice. Welded wire fabric shall be lapped as directed by the engineer. onvevina Concrete shall be conveyed from mixer to forms as rapidly as practicable by methods which will prevent segregation or loss of ingredients. There shall be no vertical drop greater than five (a) feet except where suitable equipment is provided to prevent segregation and where specifically authorized. No concrete shall be placed until the engineer has given his approval of the subgrade, forms and reinforcing steel in place. No concrete shall be placed until the engineer or his representative is present. The contractor shall notify the engineer of his intention to.. pour at least 24 hours in advance. Before any concrete is placed, the forms and subgrade shall be free of chips, dirt, sawdust, or other extraneous materials. 11. Placina General - Concrete shall be worked into the corners and angles of the forms and around all reinforcements and embedded items without permitting the materials to NRCs-NC CONC39 s Area 1 Page 3 Juiv ; 994 segregate. Concrete shall be placed within one and one-half (1.112) hours after the introduction of the cement to the water and aggregates. Concrete, when deposited in the forms during hot weather, will have a temperature not greater than 90OF at the time of placement. ice may be used as a portion of the mixing water to control temperatures provided all ice is melted in the mixing process. When the atmospheric temperature reaches or exceeds 900F, the concrete shall be placed within 45 minutes after botching. Concrete, when deposited in the forms during cold weather, shall have a temperature of not less than 40OF nor more than 800F. The aggregate and mixing water may be heated to control the concrete temperature; however, the temperature of neither aggregates nor mixing water shall be more than 100oF just prior to mixing. The materials shall be free from ice, snow and frozen lumps before entering the mixer. Concrete shall be deposited as close as possible to its final position in the forms. The depositing of concrete shall be regulated so the concrete may be consolidated with a minimum lateral movement. Concrete shall be consolidated with the aid of mechanical vibrating equipment supplemented by hand -spading and rodding. Vibrating equipment shall be of the internal type and shall at all times be adequate to properly consolidate all concrete. All concrete -placing equipment and methods shall be subject to approval. Lifts in Concrete - All concrete shall be deposited in horizontal layers approximately twenty (20) inches in thickness unless otherwise authorized or directed. The placement shall be carried on at such a rate that the formation of cold joints will be prevented. If a delay occurs in excess of a forty (40) minute interval between any two (2) consecutive batches or loads, or in case of any delay between placing of batches that allows previously placed concrete to take initial set, the contractor shall discontinue the placing of concrete and make a construction joint satisfactory to the engineer before proceeding with the placing operations. Concrete an Mock Foundation - Where concrete is to be placed on rock surfaces the rock is to be clean, free from oil, standing or running water, mud, objectionable coatings, debris, loose semi-detached or unsound rock or fragments. All rock surfaces shall be wet immediately prior to placing concrete. Concrete on Earth Foundation - Unless otherwise authorized by the engineer all concrete shall be placed upon clean, damp surfaces which are free from frost, ice, standing or running water. Concrete shall not be placed upon soft mud, dried porous earth, or upon fill that has not been subject to approved rolling and tamping. Where concrete is to be placed on dry surfaces, action must be taken to prepare a damp, moist surface prior to placing, 12. Construction Joints The placing of concrete will be accomplished so that construction joints occur at locations shown on the plans or as approved. As a lift is completed, the top surface shall be immediately and carefully protected from any condition that will adversely affect the hardening of the concrete. Joints shall be clean and keot damn until the new concrete is placed. 13. Expansion or Contraction Joints NRCs-ANC CONCRETE Area 1 Page 4 July '.sea "General - Joints shall be provided at the locations indicated on the -drawings and according to the details shown or as otherwise approved. The methods and materials used shall be subject to approval by the engineer. In no case shall any fixed metal, embedded in concrete, be continuous through an expansion or contraction joint, except as specifically detailed in the drawings. 14. Finishinct Defective concrete, honeycombed areas, voids left by the removal of the forms - and ties, and ridges on all concrete surfaces shall be repaired immediately after the removal of forms unless otherwise 'authorized or directed. Voids left by removal of tie rods shall be reamed and completely filled with mortar. Defective concrete shall be repaired by cutting out the unsatisfactory material and placing new concrete which shall be secured with keys, dovetails, or anchors. Excessive rubbing of formed surfaces will not be permitted. All unformed surfaces of concrete, exposed in the completed work, shall have a wood float finish without additional mortar. 15. Curina Concrete shall be protected from excessive drying for a curing period of at least 7 days after it is placed. Exposed surfaces shall be kept continuously moist for the entire period or until curing compound is applied as specified below. Moisture shall be maintained by sprinkling, flooding or fog spraying, or by covering with continuously moistened canvas, cloth mats, straw, sand or other approved material. Wood forms (except plywood) left in place during the curing period shal. be kept wet. Formed surfaces shall be thoroughly wetted immediately after forms are removed and shall be kept wet until patching and repaired are completed. Water or covering shall be applied in such a way that the concrete surface is not eroded or otherwise damaged. Except for construction joint surfaces, concrete may be coated with an approved curing compound in lieu of the continued application of moisture. The compound shall be sprayed on the moist concrete surfaces as soon as free water has disappeared, but shall not be applied to any surface until patching, repairs and finishing of that surface are completed. The curing compound shall be thoroughly mixed immediately before applying, and shall be applied at a uniform rate of not less than one gallon per 150 square feet of surface. It shall form a uniform, continuous, adherent fim hat shall not check, crack or peel, and shall be free from pin holes or other imperfections. Curing compound shall not be- applied to surfaces requiring bond with subsequently placed concrete, such as construction joints, shear plates, reinforcing steel and other embedded items. Surfaces subjected to heavy rainfall or running water within 3 hours after the compound has been applied; or surfaces damaged by subsequent construction operations during the curing period shall be resprayed in the same manner as for the original applications. During cold weather, the air and forms in contact with the concrete shall be maintained at temperatures above forty (40) degrees for at least five (5) days and -at a temperature above freezing for the remainder of the specified curing period. Concrete, permitted to be cured with curing compounds, shall be provided the same protection against freezing and low temperatures as provided herein. No fire NRCS-NC ccNCIF E Area 1. page 5 Juiv 1.994 or excessive heat shall be permitted near or in direct contact with concrete at any ` r time. n 16.
