new condition prior to reuse. Split, frayed, delaminated, or otherwise damaged form
facing material will not be acceptable.
N. Form Removal: Do not remove concrete forms until concrete attains sufficient strength
to support its own weight and all superimposed loads as determined by testing field
cured concrete cylinders, but not sooner than specified in ACI 347. Load supporting
forms may be removed when concrete has attained 75 percent of required 28-day
compressive strength but no sooner than 3 days, provided construction is reshored.
Vertical formwork for cast-in-place concrete walls may be removed no sooner than 1
day following concrete placement, provided that contractor can demonstrate that no
sloughing or sagging of concrete will occur.
1. Reshore structural members as specified below because of design requirements
or construction conditions to permit successive construction.
2. Remove formwork progressively so unbalanced loads are not imposed on the
structure.
3. Avoid damaging concrete surfaces during form removal.
4. Remove or snap off metal spreader ties inside wall surface. Cut nails and form
ties off flush and leave surfaces level and clean.
5. Store reusable forms for exposed architectural concrete to prevent damage to
contact surfaces.
6. Remove formwork in same sequence as concrete placement to achieve similar
concrete surface coloration.
O. Reshoring:
1. Minimum reshoring shall be as per the requirements of ACI 347. Reshoring of
not less than half the full required shoring shall be added under last placed floor
over which full shoring is to be placed for the next floor above. Leave reshoring
in place for at least 7 days after the floor above is placed, but in no case remove
reshoring until next concrete placing has attained a compressive strength equal
to 66% of that required for the 28-day age as determined by control test
cylinders specified hereinafter.
2. Record: Maintain a form and shoring removal record.
3. Contractor shall submit shoring/reshoring plans and calculations for review and
approval. Calculations and plans shall be stamped and signed by a licensed civil
or structural engineer in the State of California. Reshoring loads to the lower
floors shall be consistent with the design loads specified in the construction
documents and with the acquired strength of the lower floors based on the time
they have been allowed to cure before being loaded.

PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 PREPARATION FOR CONCRETE PLACING:
A. Remove all free water from forms before concrete is deposited. Remove hardened
concrete, debris, and foreign materials from interior surfaces of forms, exposed
reinforcing, and from surfaces of mixing and conveying equipment.
B. Wetting: Wet wood forms sufficiently to tighten up cracks. Wet other materials
sufficiently to reduce adsorption and to help maintain concrete workability.
C. Earth Subgrade: Dampen 24 hours before placing concrete, but do not muddy. Re-roll
where necessary for smoothness and remove loose material.
D. Gravel Fill: Recompact disturbed gravel and bring to correct elevation.
E. Sand Beds or Subslab Drainage Fill: Recompact disturbed material and bring to correct
elevation.
F. Vapor Barrier: Install under interior floor slabs on grade. Lap joints 6" in the direction
of concrete spreading and tape seal. Seal the joints at walls and around penetrations
with tape. Cover barrier with 2" layer of clean damp sand.
G. Screeds: Set screeds at walls and maximum 8-foot centers between. Set to provide
level floor. Check with an instrument level, transit, or laser during placing operation to
maintain level floor.
H. Screeds over Vapor Barrier: Use weighted pad or cradle type screeds and do not drive
stakes through the vapor barrier. Check with an instrument level, transit, or laser.
I. Expansion Joint Filler: Install where slabs abut buildings and elsewhere as indicated.
Install full depth of concrete with top level with finished surface of concrete.
J. Metal Floor Decking: Verify that decking joints are sealed and there are no openings or
voids that will permit concrete leakage.
K. Composite Steel Beams: Provide shores for tributary construction loads to floor and
roof beams as required, or camber the beams as approved by Architect.
3.2 CONCRETE PLACING:
A. Conveying and Placing: Comply with ACI 304. Do not place concrete until the reinforcing
steel, embedded items, forms, or metal decking have been approved. Do not use
aluminum tubes or any aluminum equipment for pumping concrete, nor allow concrete
to free fall from its point of release at mixer, hoppers, tremies, or conveying equipment
more than 5 feet for concealed concrete and 3 feet for exposed concrete. Deposit
concrete in 18” maximum lifts within 90 minutes after water is first added to the batch
and so that the surface is kept level throughout, a minimum being permitted to flow
DLX8 - EVSG 10192300127 .00 2025.02.20
CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE 03 30 00 - 11
from one portion to another. Place concrete by methods that prevent segregation of
materials.
1. Where new concrete is placed against or on old or existing concrete, apply
bonding agent to properly prepared surface of old concrete prior to placement
of new concrete. Prepare surface in accordance with ICRI.
2. Exception: When using super-plasticizers, the free fall, horizontal layer
thickness and time limitations may be doubled.
B. Placement in Forms: Limit horizontal layers to depths which can be properly
consolidated, but in no event greater than 24 inches.
1. Consolidate concrete by means of mechanical vibrators, inserted vertically in
freshly placed concrete in a systematic pattern at close intervals. Penetrate
previously placed concrete to ensure that separate concrete layers are knitted
together.
2. Vibrate concrete sufficiently to achieve consistent consolidation without
segregation of coarse aggregates.
3. Do not use vibrators to move concrete laterally.
C. Protection: Ensure that reinforcement, embedded products, joint fillers and joint
devices are not disturbed during concrete placement.
D. Joints in Concrete: Locate construction joints only where approved, and obtain prior
approval for points of stoppage of any pour. Clean and roughen the surface of
construction joints by removing the entire surface and exposing 1/4" amplitude of clean
aggregate solidly embedded in mortar matrix by sandblasting, chipping, use of an
approved surface retarder, or equal. Water and keep hardened concrete wet for not
less than 24 hours and slush with portland cement slurry just before placing joining
concrete. Cover horizontal surfaces of existing or previously placed and hardened
concrete with a 2" thick layer of fresh concrete less 50% of coarse aggregate just before
balance of concrete is placed.
E. Vertical Elements: Stop placement of concrete in walls and columns 1-1/2" below
bottom of beams or supported slabs. Stop placement at sills and heads of wall openings
in the same manner. Allow concrete in vertical elements to be in place at least 2 hours
and until vertical settlement has ceased before placing concrete for floor framing.
F. Compacting: Compact each layer of the concrete as placed with mechanical vibrators
or equivalent equipment. Transmit vibration directly to concrete and in no case through
the forms unless approved. Accomplish thorough compaction. Supplement by rodding
or spading by hand adjacent to forms. Compact concrete into corners and angles of
forms and around reinforcement and embedded fixtures. Recompact deep sections
with congestion due to reinforcing steel as required.
G. Operation of Vibrators: Do not horizontally transport concrete in forms with vibrators
nor allow vibrators to contact forms or reinforcing. Push vibrators vertically into the
preceding layers that are still plastic and slowly withdraw, producing maximum
obtainable density in concrete without creating voids or segregation. In no case disturb
DLX8 - EVSG 10192300127 .00 2025.02.20
CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE 03 30 00 - 12
concrete that has partially set. Vibrate at intervals not exceeding two-thirds the
effective visible vibration diameter of the submerged vibrator. Avoid excessive
vibration that causes segregation. Use and type of vibrators shall conform to ACI 309
"Recommended Practice for Consolidation of Concrete".
H. Correction of Segregation: Before placing next layer of concrete, and at the top of last
placement for vertical elements, remove concrete containing excess water or fine
aggregate or showing deficiency of coarse aggregate and fill the space with compacted
concrete of correct proportions.
I. Waterproof Membranes: Perform work adjacent to waterproof membranes to prevent
damage to membranes. Arrange work so that membrane is left unprotected for
minimum period of time, as approved. Prior to placing concrete, inspect the membrane
and arrange for repair to all damage which may have occurred.
J. Concrete Encased Columns: Clean columns as specified for cleaning other steel in
contact with concrete. When concrete is not carried to structure above, stop concrete
perpendicular to column axis at the same elevation on all parts of all columns in the
space. Float top neatly to column.
K. Slabs:
1. Float Finish: Place, consolidate, strike off and level concrete slab to proper
elevation. Use highway straightedge, bull float or darby. Remove all bleed
water. After the concrete has stiffened sufficiently to permit the operation, and
water sheen has disappeared, the surface shall be floated, at least twice, to a
uniform sandy texture. Remainder of finishing operations shall be as specified
in Section 03 34 50 for each type of surface.
2. On-Grade Slabs: Place with maximum 40-foot edge dimension. Generally
locate joints on column lines, exact locations as directed or approved.
3. On-Grade Slab Construction and Contraction Joints: Use types as indicated at
column lines intermediate locations.
4. Expansion Joints: Conform to details and approved submittal. Provide
expansion joint filler finished flush with slab surface except for those joints
shown to be sealed with sealant. Conform to Section 07 92 00 where sealant
sealed joints are shown or specified, including the polymer joint filler, backing,
and bond breaker.
5. Control Joints: Provide for concrete slabs as indicated. At Contractor's option,
"Soff-Cut" saw may be used to depth of 1-1/4" immediately providing spalling
or undercutting of the concrete does not occur, and in no case shall slab
reinforcement be cut or damaged. Conventional saws shall be used as soon as
possible without dislodging aggregate to 1/4 slab thickness. Complete sawing
of joints within 12 hours after finishing is completed. If early sawing causes
undercutting or washing of the concrete, delay the sawing operation and repair
the damaged areas. The saw cut shall not vary more than 1/2 inch from the true
joint alignment. Discontinue sawing if a crack develops ahead of a saw cut.
Immediately after each joint is sawed, thoroughly clean the saw cut and
adjacent concrete surface. Respray surfaces treated with curing compound
DLX8 - EVSG 10192300127 .00 2025.02.20
CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE 03 30 00 - 13
which are damaged during the sawing operations as soon as the water
disappears. Protect joints in a manner to prevent the curing compound from
entering the joints.
3.3 COLD WEATHER PROVISIONS:
A. Conform to ACI 306 and the following requirements.
B. Normal Concrete: When the temperature is below 40 degrees F. the temperature of
the concrete placed in the forms shall be at least 60 degrees F. When the temperature
is below 30 degrees F. the temperature of the concrete as mixed shall be 65 degrees F.
In all cases, when the daily average temperature is below 40 degrees F. the concrete
shall be kept at 55 degrees F. for 72 hours and then allowed to drop uniformly to the
air temperature over the next 24 hours.
1. Concrete temperature shall be measured by placing a thermometer 2" from the
top of the concrete being placed.
C. Air-entrained concrete shall be kept at the above temperature for 27 hours and above
freezing for an additional 72 hours.

concrete is to come in contact shall be free of frost.
G. The covering or other protection used in connection with the curing shall remain in place
and intact for at least 24 hours.
H. The work shall be protected from the elements, flowing water, and defacements of any
nature during the construction operations.
3.4 HOT WEATHER PROVISIONS:
A. Conform to ACI 305 and the following requirements.
B. Take extra care to reduce the temperature of the concrete being placed, and to prevent
rapid drying of newly placed concrete. When the outdoor ambient temperature is more
than 90 degrees F., shade the fresh concrete as soon as possible after placing, and start
curing as soon as the surface of the fresh concrete is sufficiently hard to permit it
without damage. Using retarding admixture at 85F or higher.

CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE 03 30 00 - 20
tests represent may be required. Make core tests according to ASTM C42. Fill core holes
with drypack concrete of strength required for concrete. Contractor shall bear cost of
tests for below-strength concrete even if such tests indicate concrete has attained
required minimum compressive strength, and all costs for required corrections.
G. Field Certifications: For all concrete, provide signed copy of batch plant's certificate
stating quantity of each material, amount of water, admixtures, departure time and
date accompanying each load of materials or concrete.
3.15 DEFECTIVE CONCRETE
A. Defective Concrete: The following concrete will be deemed to be defective, and shall
be removed promptly from the job site.
1. Concrete, which is not formed as indicated, is not true to intended alignment,
is not plumb or level where so intended, is not true to intended grades and
levels;
2. Has voids or honeycomb that have been cut, resurfaced, or filled, unless with
the approval of the Architect;
3. Has sawdust, shavings, wood, or embedded debris;
4. Does not conform fully to provisions of the Contract Documents.
B. Repairs and Replacements:
1. Where defective concrete is found after removal of the forms, cut out the
defective concrete, if necessary, and make the surfaces match adjacent
surfaces.
2. Work uneven surfaces and angles of concrete to a surface matching adjacent
concrete surfaces.
3.16 PROTECTION:
1. Protection: Protect concrete from marring and damage due to weather and
construction activities.
1. Protective measures shall include providing temporary coverings, as specified
in Section 01 50 00 - Construction Facilities and Temporary Controls, and

6 Warnings
• The anchor design methods in PROFIS Engineering require rigid anchor plates per current regulations (AS 5216:2021, ETAG 001/Annex C,
EOTA TR029 etc.). This means load re-distribution on the anchors due to elastic deformations of the anchor plate are not considered - the
anchor plate is assumed to be sufficiently stiff, in order not to be deformed when subjected to the design loading. PROFIS Engineering calculates
the minimum required anchor plate thickness with CBFEM to limit the stress of the anchor plate based on the assumptions explained above. The
proof if the rigid anchor plate assumption is valid is not carried out by PROFIS Engineering. Input data and results must be checked for
agreement with the existing conditions and for plausibility!
• The equations presented in this report are based on imperial units. When inputs are displayed in metric units, the user should be aware that the
equations remain in their imperial format.
• Condition A applies where the potential concrete failure surfaces are crossed by supplementary reinforcement proportioned to tie the potential
concrete failure prism into the structural member. Condition B applies where such supplementary reinforcement is not provided, or where pullout
or pryout strength governs.
• Refer to the manufacturer's product literature for cleaning and installation instructions.
• For additional information about ACI 318 strength design provisions, please go to
https://viewer.joomag.com/profis-design-guide-us-en-summer-2021/0841849001625154758?short&/
• "An anchor design approach for structures assigned to Seismic Design Category C, D, E or F is given in ACI 318-19, Chapter 17, Section
17.10.5.3 (a) that requires the governing design strength of an anchor or group of anchors be limited by ductile steel failure. If this is NOT the
case, the connection design (tension) shall satisfy the provisions of Section 17.10.5.3 (b), Section 17.10.5.3 (c), or Section 17.10.5.3 (d). The
connection design (shear) shall satisfy the provisions of Section 17.10.6.3 (a), Section 17.10.6.3 (b), or Section 17.10.6.3 (c)."
• Section 17.10.5.3 (b) / Section 17.10.6.3 (a) require the attachment the anchors are connecting to the structure be designed to undergo ductile
yielding at a load level corresponding to anchor forces no greater than the controlling design strength. Section 17.10.5.3 (c) / Section 17.10.6.3
(b) waive the ductility requirements and require the anchors to be designed for the maximum tension / shear that can be transmitted to the
anchors by a non-yielding attachment. Section 17.10.5.3 (d) / Section 17.10.6.3 (c) waive the ductility requirements and require the design
strength of the anchors to equal or exceed the maximum tension / shear obtained from design load combinations that include E, with E increased
by w0.
• Hilti post-installed anchors shall be installed in accordance with the Hilti Manufacturer's Printed Installation Instructions (MPII). Reference ACI
318-19, Section 26.7.
Fastening meets the design criteria!

6 Warnings
• The anchor design methods in PROFIS Engineering require rigid anchor plates per current regulations (AS 5216:2021, ETAG 001/Annex C,
EOTA TR029 etc.). This means load re-distribution on the anchors due to elastic deformations of the anchor plate are not considered - the
anchor plate is assumed to be sufficiently stiff, in order not to be deformed when subjected to the design loading. PROFIS Engineering calculates
the minimum required anchor plate thickness with CBFEM to limit the stress of the anchor plate based on the assumptions explained above. The
proof if the rigid anchor plate assumption is valid is not carried out by PROFIS Engineering. Input data and results must be checked for
agreement with the existing conditions and for plausibility!
• The equations presented in this report are based on imperial units. When inputs are displayed in metric units, the user should be aware that the
equations remain in their imperial format.
• Condition A applies where the potential concrete failure surfaces are crossed by supplementary reinforcement proportioned to tie the potential
concrete failure prism into the structural member. Condition B applies where such supplementary reinforcement is not provided, or where pullout
or pryout strength governs.
• Refer to the manufacturer's product literature for cleaning and installation instructions.
• For additional information about ACI 318 strength design provisions, please go to
https://viewer.joomag.com/profis-design-guide-us-en-summer-2021/0841849001625154758?short&/
• "An anchor design approach for structures assigned to Seismic Design Category C, D, E or F is given in ACI 318-19, Chapter 17, Section
17.10.5.3 (a) that requires the governing design strength of an anchor or group of anchors be limited by ductile steel failure. If this is NOT the
case, the connection design (tension) shall satisfy the provisions of Section 17.10.5.3 (b), Section 17.10.5.3 (c), or Section 17.10.5.3 (d). The
connection design (shear) shall satisfy the provisions of Section 17.10.6.3 (a), Section 17.10.6.3 (b), or Section 17.10.6.3 (c)."
• Section 17.10.5.3 (b) / Section 17.10.6.3 (a) require the attachment the anchors are connecting to the structure be designed to undergo ductile
yielding at a load level corresponding to anchor forces no greater than the controlling design strength. Section 17.10.5.3 (c) / Section 17.10.6.3
(b) waive the ductility requirements and require the anchors to be designed for the maximum tension / shear that can be transmitted to the
anchors by a non-yielding attachment. Section 17.10.5.3 (d) / Section 17.10.6.3 (c) waive the ductility requirements and require the design
strength of the anchors to equal or exceed the maximum tension / shear obtained from design load combinations that include E, with E increased
by w0.
• Hilti post-installed anchors shall be installed in accordance with the Hilti Manufacturer's Printed Installation Instructions (MPII). Reference ACI
318-19, Section 26.7.
Fastening meets the design criteria!

6 Warnings
• The anchor design methods in PROFIS Engineering require rigid anchor plates per current regulations (AS 5216:2021, ETAG 001/Annex C,
EOTA TR029 etc.). This means load re-distribution on the anchors due to elastic deformations of the anchor plate are not considered - the
anchor plate is assumed to be sufficiently stiff, in order not to be deformed when subjected to the design loading. PROFIS Engineering calculates
the minimum required anchor plate thickness with CBFEM to limit the stress of the anchor plate based on the assumptions explained above. The
proof if the rigid anchor plate assumption is valid is not carried out by PROFIS Engineering. Input data and results must be checked for
agreement with the existing conditions and for plausibility!
• The equations presented in this report are based on imperial units. When inputs are displayed in metric units, the user should be aware that the
equations remain in their imperial format.
• Condition A applies where the potential concrete failure surfaces are crossed by supplementary reinforcement proportioned to tie the potential
concrete failure prism into the structural member. Condition B applies where such supplementary reinforcement is not provided, or where pullout
or pryout strength governs.
• Design Strengths of adhesive anchor systems are influenced by the cleaning method. Refer to the INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE given in the
Evaluation Service Report for cleaning and installation instructions.
• For additional information about ACI 318 strength design provisions, please go to
https://viewer.joomag.com/profis-design-guide-us-en-summer-2021/0841849001625154758?short&/
• "An anchor design approach for structures assigned to Seismic Design Category C, D, E or F is given in ACI 318-19, Chapter 17, Section
17.10.5.3 (a) that requires the governing design strength of an anchor or group of anchors be limited by ductile steel failure. If this is NOT the
case, the connection design (tension) shall satisfy the provisions of Section 17.10.5.3 (b), Section 17.10.5.3 (c), or Section 17.10.5.3 (d). The
connection design (shear) shall satisfy the provisions of Section 17.10.6.3 (a), Section 17.10.6.3 (b), or Section 17.10.6.3 (c)."
• Section 17.10.5.3 (b) / Section 17.10.6.3 (a) require the attachment the anchors are connecting to the structure be designed to undergo ductile
yielding at a load level corresponding to anchor forces no greater than the controlling design strength. Section 17.10.5.3 (c) / Section 17.10.6.3
(b) waive the ductility requirements and require the anchors to be designed for the maximum tension / shear that can be transmitted to the
anchors by a non-yielding attachment. Section 17.10.5.3 (d) / Section 17.10.6.3 (c) waive the ductility requirements and require the design
strength of the anchors to equal or exceed the maximum tension / shear obtained from design load combinations that include E, with E increased
by w0.
• Installation of Hilti adhesive anchor systems shall be performed by personnel trained to install Hilti adhesive anchors. Reference ACI 318-19,
Section 26.7.
Fastening meets the design criteria!
